I suppose you will probably have to hear me speak to gauge what you deem my accent to be, it is hard to describe it to you unless you are familiar with regional accents. I do know that neither of my children have the local accents ( which is quite hilarious)neither their father or I speak with the local accent.I do get teased by Michael on a regular basis........I say old chap etc, etc............

laugh I can imagine, I know I get teased with mine...

I have so many friends from different regions, and I had figured that yours, Bonny, was softer, and a more atypical of a central London accent.

and s10w...I think its "Yeah-a Bay-by"

English they say is not a complete language in it's own right. Some "English" words have been "borrowed " from other languages. The English language is a combination of Germanic, Indian ( East) Saxon, and Latin to name but a few. The word Bicycle is Indian originally..................
