And, since nobody asked (or cares) I’ll volunteer that I sound exactly like where I’m from.
(But I can feign an accent from almost anywhere, and I’m told by native speakers of Spanish, Serbian and German that when I speak what little I know in their languages, I have no perceptible foreign accent. However, when I speak French, I am told that I have an Oriental accent. But the chicks still dig it.)
Just don’t call him in the middle of the night and expect a sane or normal phone greeting.
[it’s Mr Broad Vowels!]
