I don't really have a favorite but I hate to have to talk with people in India. I can hardly understand them.

Well I guess my favorite would be southern....I love to hear Paula Dean talk. I can understand every word she says and just love her accent.

>>I love to hear French<<

I got a sudden, and somewhat disturbing image of Gomez and Morticia Adams, Storm... ;0))))

I love an Irish accent, but I'm also partial to a N'Awlins drawl... as that accent is MINE!... LOL

I also dislike that east Indian accent because of the difficulty in communication.

I'm not actually from New Orleans, but I have had natives tell me that if they didn't know already, they would never have figured it out, Judy.

Interestingly, there are two distinct dialects in my area: New Orleans, and hard-core Cajun. I can do the Cajun accent, but it's not natural to me.
