Accents in English

I was just thinking about the different accents that there are in English. People from different states have different accents. I like to listen to the different accents that there are out there.

Not only are there accents within the English language itself, but other accents come from people who speak English as their second language. Some people have an easy time getting rid of their accent but others keep their accent for the rest of their life.

Living in California, you get used to hearing many different kinds of accents because there are many immigrants who live here. It is nice to hear variations in the language.

I think we are so accustomed to hearing people whose native language is not English. Sometimes we don't even really pay attention to their accents. Sometimes we don't even hear their grammatical mistakes. The most important thing is communication and understanding one another.
