Will the different accents eventually fade away as American culture continues to gain popularity in other english speaking countries? Just like regional dialects in the UK are being taken over by the London dialect.
I see a lot of non-Americans using American english spelling and some even use it when they talk too. Social media is dominated by Americans too and almost all young people are either reading or writing in English on a daily basis and American movies are popular too where they speak American english.
Hopefully yes. Scottish and Aussie English are dirty and impossible to understand by anyone.
As for Brits. The only accent of theirs worth keeping is the posh Queen's British. All that cockney shit belongs in the trash. Good riddance too.

>Just like regional dialects in the UK are being taken over by the London dialect. there are multiple London dialects and their influence is decreasing in British culture, not increasing

Linguists are already noticing other variants of English becoming increasingly Americanized due to the influence of American media.

Austin Watson
English accents which arent west country/Australian/soctish will never be rhotic or use that one vowel Americans have for every vowel

we have different dialects everywhere here. two places can sound radically different even if they're only five minutes away from each other.

Luke Miller
yeah, it is. it's even happening in my country and other centralized countries.
i'm just asking a question here, if you don't got the answer then don't reply?
Charles Gray
Every non-native English speaker in Europe learns to speak with an English accent. You probably do yourself without realizing it, Denmark.
Grayson Kelly
wicked wicked jungle is massive
Aiden Hernandez
i speak with danish accent, althrough i can't pronounce 'water' without sounding british
Matthew Allen
>i'm just asking a question here, if you don't got the answer then don't reply? but the answer would be predicated on completely false assumptions basically no, british accents won't all devolve into one accent and american accents won't take over. american spelling seems more popular in non-anglophone countries though.
my question was if this could happen on a global scale with social media/television making the world a lot smaller.
Jayden Reyes
cant really speak for anywhere else, but in britain the accent changes arent entirely one-dimensional. for example scouse has only got weirder and stronger as time's gone on, the oldies in liverpool tend to sound more like other lancastrians whereas teenagers have a really noticeably liverpudlian accent. it does seem to me like most of the uk is shifting more towards received pronounciation, but weirdly enough that also seems to me to be in decline in (south) london where everybody (including native whites) tries to talk like a jamaican, which doesnt really seem to be a thing in america. americanisations seem really prevalent though, hear really weird things sometimes like my m8 referring to a plaster as a band-aid when i dont think that brand even exists in britain. i think the differences will change - brits will start referring to lorries as trucks and mobiles as cell phones, but the cultures arent identical so we'll different differences, like a ton of stupid london mutt speak as well. bit grim really

Joseph Johnson
if you listen to people talking from different parts of the country, dialects are still going strong in some places but now most places just have a different accent and no different words
Thomas Powell
of course there are still dialects and there will always be some of it left, but if you go back 50 years ago you'll notice the difference and much if you go 50 years in the future
isn't that region really depressing/suicidal?
Jayden Gonzalez
yeah even my parents speak differently to me

Benjamin Wright
My countrymen who affect an """"Amerrrican""" accent comes off as trashy or just sound like flips which is the same thing. Cultured English accent is still the RP but only the older generations use it. Nowadays, we have our own Malaysian English accent.
Forgive my ignorance, but is Yorkshire in this general region?
Daniel Baker
nah he sounds like a geordie (newcastle)
Daniel Morales
But that's all in Northeast England, correct? I only ask because I can hear some similarities.
Gavin Gutierrez
yeah lad
Jaxson Wilson
Probably. The interesting thing is burgers are picking up on as much English slang as we have picked up on theirs in the age of the internet.
Carter Perry
All of our middle class accents have become homogenized or gone extinct, and most people have bland midwestern accents, while poor people retain their hideous regional accents
Thomas Lee
That's not true at all.
Brayden Long
yeah "interesting" is one way to put it, embarrassing as fuck is another
Joshua Harris
Nah it's about 50:50 whether they sound burger or bong in my experience
Connor Sullivan
yes it is, what part of the country are you from?
Samuel White
Chicago.
Noah Gonzalez
I saw some mutts calling each other mate on a facebook mastermind group yesterday, thought it was qt.
Thomas Wilson
I bet you consider that heinous Chicago/Great Lakes accent "middle class". It isn't
people write m8 and stuff online here, but you'd probably be physically assaulted if you said it out loud or any form of British slang as an American. People get irrationally aggravated by any amount of poshness or "pretentiousness"
it's a bit of a shame because your slang is a bit more flexible and amusing
Samuel Murphy
The Austtalian accent is not changing. Suprisingly we have different dialects as well. Up here in Queensland and the Northern Territory the accents are quite thick. Where as I guess down in Victorias Melbourne it still sounds Australian but with a hint of American to it
