Accent's you hate/ can't understand?

Indian/middle eastern accents.

I don't hate them, I'm indifferent to the way they sound. They're just an accent.

Understanding them though? Even a light accent really throws me off, thicker accents I absolutely cannot understand. There's been a few times where I've gotten through to a call center and had to ask if I could speak to somebody else because I couldn't grasp a single word the person was saying. I felt awful asking, but there was also no point staying on the phone with somebody I literally couldn't comprehend.

tf is an 'african' accent like there's so many subcategories and ur gonna group them all like that ok.

TF is a 'British' accent?

Most places are going to have 'subcategories' of accents and we're going to group them together and that's okay.

Unless you're from the country, you're probably not going to know different regional accents and most definately aren't going to know even more specific local accents that everybody FROM that country will notice instantly. I'm not going to expect anybody on this forum to know the difference between a Wigan and a Salford accent, I can tell the difference, but I'm not going to throw a tantrum when somebody from America who's never been to the UK just throws it under the umberalla term of "British accent".
 
I don't mind accents, but I have trouble understanding heavy British accents. I'm trying with all my might to make sense of what they're saying to no avail :( I don't like heavy accents, but I don't really mind them either. I just wish I could make sense of what I'm being told. :(
 
There are a few german accents, mainly from the north region.. it's not that I hate them,
but I just can't take any person speaking in that accent serious, because it's funny af. xD
My brother can immitate it insanely good and he can talk about the worst stuff in thet accent
and I still have to laugh, because it just sounds like someone who's drunk + insanely dumb. q-q
 
I don't pbbblt like accents pbbblt like this pbbblt.
 
I can't stand typical southern US accents.

I freaking love Maine accents, but maybe that's just because I'm so attached to the state as a whole. I also love Polish accents but that too may be due to my Polish background haha

I don't hate it, but I can't really understand a specific New Zealand accent. I'll find an example.

Accents are really cool! I wish I had one. Isn't saying you hate an accent a little bit mean considering it's not something a person can control or change? :)
 
I'm French and I absolutely despise French accent, so, so, so much. It makes me cringe so much, this coupled with an horrible english level is so horrendous.
I also don't like the Australian accent because it's so weird, and Australian people freak me out with their "Maccas" or whatever.
 
Lol seeing a lot people on here don't like Australian accents, you probably won't like mine either :') I think the Australian accent is worse than the New Zealand accent though; while they're similar the Australian accent is much more nasally in my opinion.

I don't really hate any accents, I love hearing them all. However I find a few of them hard to understand, like some Asian accents or European accents. Depends how think their accent is though, and how clearly they can speak english.
