An accent where there shouldn't be one?

There's no real way I can answer your question definitively but I can make a few educated guesses.

(1) For some reason you are extra-sensitive to accents, you might actually have a talent for language learning or spoken performance.

(2) You may have a mild form of speech impediment (light lisping, some difficulty forming certain vowels) which is being heard as a British accent, or something like it.

(3) You may have begun unconsciously emulating a British accent at an early age, and simply continued to do so. Remember, the development of an accent can be subconscious [1].

I went through a couple experiences, one while in middle school, where (to my horror) I found myself imitating the Middle-Eastern accent of a fellow student I had met, *while talking to him* .I was mortified and couldn't understand why I would do something so rude.

The other, when after working as a CSA for several months in the Southern U.S., I began (quite unintentionally) to speak with a breathy Southern American accent (I normally speak with a very clear non-regional accent). Again I was surprised and a little confused, as this had never been my intention.

On the plus side it turns out I was able to develop very good accents when I began studying other languages.

I know a guy who was from Kansas City, Missouri who had very weird accent. Almost like some kind of Italian mafia accent. I always used to ask him where he got his accent and he told me people asks him that all the time and he believes he does not have an accent. This kid was US born 100% ginger.

There s no such factor as a British accessory. Britain is made of four international locations: Scotland, England, Northern Ireland and Wales but when I needed to reply, I might say the southern English accessory
