Just like the question, vote for your favorite English accent.

If your favorite accent isn't on the list, feel free to comment down below what it is.

Additional explanation of why you like a certain accent is appreciated.
My favorite English accent is probably Scottish accent since it sounds pretty comical and I think it's strangely sounds kind of cute.

Overall, I love how most English accents sound, each one has their own charm to it.

But if you had to ask me, I'd tell you that I love how Australians speak.

They say they're hard to understand, but for me it's quite easy actually; also I freaking love it when how instead of [eɪ] they say [ɐ̟ɪ]. Like "bake" instead of sounding BAY-eek, it sounds like BAH-eek. The fact the AH sounds closer to [a] than [ɑ] is something that I appreciate from this particular accent.

I like Indian and South African accents as well. Their intonation is quite unique and something that I enjoy listening to.

Y'all guys should try to learn how to read the IPA! it's very, VERY useful to help you describe how something sounds with precision and without recurring to respellings ;3

british accent is my favorite. reason being is that i just got used to british youtuber speaking it, and also i think its funny aswell. i think i got really used to it that even my indonesian accent has a slight britishnes to it. the other 2 uk accent came in close second for the same reason.

jamaican and african accent are really good aswell. they both sound like a more scuffed indian accent which is really comical. sadly jamaican accent is really hard to understand so african accent just inches that tiny bit over jamaican accent

Reading all the comments now I realized that I've missed a shit ton of accents, some are even pretty obvious.

I'd edit the poll if I can but I haven't found a way to yet. I'm not sure if that's even possible.
