Latvian - the dialect that is spoken in Ventspils(town near the Baltic sea).
Russian - the way Kosmos from Russian serial 'Brigada' spoke. Don't know if it's a real 'accent' or just a specific character though. American English - standard, general American. Hate when Americans say 'eeenswer' instead of 'aenswer' or 'cheeeence' instead of 'chaence'. British English - don't like RP anymore, prefer regional, real accents but only to the extent where understanding is not harmed too much. And of course Aussie accent. Kiwi is also nice but Australian is superior. 1 person has voted this message useful | |

English: As far as native accents go I'd have to say the Midwestern USA accent is my favourite. However my absolute favourite would have to be English spoken with a slight German accent. French: I'm rather fond of the accent of my friend who attended a French immersion school. It's not Quebecois, I believe it's referred to as French Canadian. 1 person has voted this message useful | |

French as spoken in Switzerland, particularly Vaud canton.
Finland-Swedish + Swedish from the region of "Dalarna". I think South African English sounds sexy when a guy speaks it.... "Singlish" (Singapore English) becuase it's such a cool and funny pidgeon. People know they shouldn't speak and the governement there is always bashing it. But it's spoken anyway. Edited by cordelia0507 on 19 June 2009 at 11:26am 1 person has voted this message useful | |

My own accent is Northern Irish, which I'm quite proud of.
I also like the Estuary and Geordie (Newcastle) accents. Dutch: I like both the southern and northern accents, though I like the rough "g" of the northern accents. Afrikaans is also nice to listen to. French: Quebec and Parisian french both have their positives. Irish: toss up between Ulster and Connaught accents. Spanish: Northern Castilian.
