pinky0926 12/24/17 8:53:17 AM #17:	fenderbender321 posted... The term British accent has been widely used for a long time. There is a general accent, and then there are more specific accents. Same with most countries. For fucks sake, people. You know what TC meant. We knew what he meant but it's also worth correcting and educating, because it's just wrong. If you went to the UK about 90% of the accents you hear would be not at all like the wonderfully musical received pronunciation you hear from hollywood villains. There is no "general" accent, I promise you that.

For example The Benny Hill show had actors that spoke an accent that is harder for Americans to understand than say the accent the actors have on the IT Crowd. But it is still called a British accent. They're all called British accents but only in the sense that they all hail from Britain.
