    Jakob's accent was good at the start, but the more he talked, the more the South Sfrican accent came out. Same with Beth. Claire did great. I could tell eventually that there was SOMETHING, but never would have guessed British. Odessa was obvious from the way she said her own name, but I didn't know where from.

    Lauren's fake American accent impressed me. I'm so accustomed to her usual RP accent that it sounded really weird to hear her in this video. Beginning the questioning with "How many states are there? was extremely silly. No American over the age of ten could possibly answer that incorrectly. Most Canadians would probably get that right too, so when everyone but Emma answered that wrong I knew none of the were likely to be Canadian either.

    It was obvious to me that Odessa was definately either Australian or Kiwi... there were a few words where she added that 'rrr' sound to the end of the word (like the name Emma sounding like Emmer). There were a few other words that gave away her accent like that. Beth's American accent was quite good but there were a few words I noticed that betrayed her Aussie accent, similar to Odessa. Jakob was obviously South African... but I think the one that fooled me the best was Lauren/Clare... I thought that she was from Canada... A lot of Canadians have a similar sounding accent to Americans but then they'll have a few vowel pronunciations that are different (like in the word Process americans will typically say "Praw-sess" and some Canadians will say "Pro-sess" ... things like that, that give it away) that I thought I heard in Lauren/Clare's accent

This is was an interesting concept: try to sound the most American, see who’s faking their accent, and try to find who is the real American! My strategy was to keep my accent (and not put on an obviously fake accent xD) but I tried not to be too obvious in other ways! It was fun to film with the others and I had a blast! It’s all for fun!

The reason people seem to think it's Russian or Ukraine is bc of the Ukraine city, which was given the name by the Russian queen(?) Catherine as a sign of respect to the Greek colony which was present there in the past. Also, the word that the name Odessa is derived means "wrathful"

    TBH I thought they all sounded like non-Americans including Emma. I wonder if her parents are immigrants because sometimes the kids will still pronounce some words like their so. In her opening introduction I thought she was Eastern European partly because of her pitch when she said USA. Or maybe it could just be the part of the USA she’s from. Lauren and Beth did do well overall but they had their moments with certain words. Now Jakob and Odessa were very obvious. Fun fact. people where I’m from in the USA don’t say sneakers or trainers. We call them tennis shoes.

    @@mynameisjeff2571 I’m not Texan but I’ve mostly lived in the South and I think the term tennis shoes is more popular in this region than sneakers. I spent most my childhood in California living on the border and I speak Spanish. In Cali, Texas, certain parts of Florida, a lot of the billboards and business signage will be either in Spanish or both English and Spanish. Living closer to a border makes a difference I think. I find Minnesota and some South Dakotans oftentimes have a way of speaking that makes me take them for Canadians. I’ve also met people from Upper Michigan, or Upers they call them who I thought were foreigners because I wasn’t familiar with their accent .

If I had to do a self assessment, I'd say that I sound more "midwest" as far as dialect goes than anywhere else, but I lived in a lot of places as a kid (including Germany) because I was an army brat. Still, in my early to mid teen years, I lived in Kansas before going back to Hawaii a second time to finish my jr and sr years of high school. I've spent nearly 30 years since then in New Mexico, but I never picked up on the more sing-song style of speech and only know of a couple of terms that wound up in my vocabulary that are typical where I live.

    Really like the concept but having them ask questions like that definitely gave everyone away instantly. I think it would be better to have them say famous lines or maybe read from a script. Start with words that are pretty universal then as you get deeper into it pick words that would be different from what an American would use and vice versa. Like the one girl said, using different words for shoes is a perfect example.

    It is pretty easy to differentiate a North American English accent from a British, Irish, or Australian accent (if the latter are not deliberately impersonating an American as in this video). I can't tell, however, if someone is from the USA or Canada based on his/her accent alone, unless he/she has a very specific accent like a Deep South accent from the US, or a Newfoundland accent if he/she is Canadian.
