It also helps that the General American Accent is rather easy to learn as it is pretty 'neutral' and comparatively nondiscript. I mean, most people even slip into something similar to General American when they sing, even without knowing it! Mick Jagger, George Michael, and Adele just to name a few notable examples. It makes sense when you think about it; the basis of GA was literally made by the media in the early 1900's so that personalities wouldn't sound like they're _from_ anywhere and therefore appeal to the largest demographics. The history and use of the modern standard american dialect is actually really interesting topic.

@johneyon5257

7 жыл бұрын

LOL!!! - hardly - GA is not the "natural" accent you seem to think it is - haven't you noticed that british children sing with strong british accents - and so do british non-singers too nor do british singers "slip" into GA unknowingly - those who want to make a singing career - and are concerned about being understood in America - will alter their pronunciation to be understood by americans

It might have something to do with the fact that American accents are kind of everywhere, american cinema and television is way more wide spread, and produced at higher levels that English or British media, so maybe because people are constantly hearing it, it's easier to pick up on.

I have to very politely disagree with you about Hugh Laurie. Let me explain: It took me about two episodes to realize that he was a Brit or an Aussie - and then by episode #3, I was certain he was a Brit. I don't know, maybe I have some weird special language talent or something, but he sounds like he is not FROM anywhere in the USA. For a few seconds I thought....hmmmm.....maybe Canadian Maritime, but no. His accent - like a lot of faked American accents - is far too neutral - so "nowhere" - that it's a dead giveaway. I also think that his concentration on the not-nuanced accent might limit his acting range -- which is great for that part... and he always does most of his acting with his face anyway. Yes, it's a perfect American accent - but something isn't right. It's like a store-brand dishwashing liquid. Does that make sense? He sounds like he is from Nowhere, USA. Anyway, I'm the idiot for not knowing who Hugh Laurie was before House - lol.

Pretty much nailed it.

I generally think that it’s easier for British people to memorize or replicate American accents because there are more American movies spread worldwide than there are British movies with British actors In America and that’s why when Americans try to replicate British accents they don’t sound authentic because they’re really just almost in away memorizing it from small bits of material that they have seen but I could be wrong I don’t really know but that’s what I think

American accents are super easy, there’s just a slightly tricky sound in words with “r”’s in them. If you avoid that mistake it’s easy to do an generic American accent.
