Populations diverge if isolated for long enough times.

>>524309400
Probably diffused with all the krauts.

America has a british accent derivative in the south. It also has Creole. Found mostly in Lousianna
>>
>>524309400
Australians are almost all of actual British descent
Americans are euromutts so the Britishness isn't as present

explain Canadian accents then

North American English speakers were isolated for a long enough time to where they developed their own accent, it's that simple
>>
>>524309400
>>524309990
More specifically Australian is a UK penal colony founded 150 years ago.
USA kicked the British out 250 years ago.
Big difference. USA got Britons who literally didn't want to be bongs, Australia got Britons the UK didn't want to be bongs, often bloody cunts.

Cause were cool B)

>>524309400
Americans have the original British accent. It's the British that changed and gave their new accent to Australians.
>>
Because americans speak a properenglish, while british english was heavily influenced by foreigners. Most australians cane to australia when the language was already fucked.

Appalachian is olde Scots; when ya'll come to understand that you will not look down on American as lower class corruption of Eliza Doolittle but in fact an elevated preservation of a better time
>>
>>524309400
America has a foreign accent, they confuse all their vowels. Marry Merry Mary are three different words.

The east coast Bostian Accent is literally the OG "english" accent, so people in Shakespeare's time probably sounded more like Matt Damon than Hugh Grant.

>>
>>524311030
I think they sounded Nordic that far back
>>
The modern Brittish accent didn't exist at the time of American independence. English speaking people sounded more Celtic at the time. The English accent comes from people copying how the French speaking royals sounded. The word "royalty" it's self is a French word.
>>
>>524311507
Anon, Shakespeare spoke early modern english. For english to sound germanic you would need to go even further back.
>>
>>524309400
We basically had a British accent up until relatively recently if you listen to old recordings of Australians speaking.
Not like it matters because we'll all be speaking with jeet accents in a few decades.
>>
The general American accent is similar to the Dublin accent.

You're wrong, Australia, Britain, and Canada have American accents.
>>
US accent is closer to the old British accent. Where as the leftover redditor cuckolds of the dying empire adopted a speech pattern inspired by their royals.

American English has been proven to be etymologically closer to the original version of English than the actual English the English use. Maybe your people didn't manage to do the same because you are literally descendants of prisoners?

this is the correct way to speak English
>>
>>524313382
that's total bullshit and I'm super tired of hearing it. the US accent is heavily influenced by German, that's why it lacks the vowel distinctions of real English and hypercorrect the R sounds.

You're implying that dozens of dialects split apart O and A sounds in the same way, across multiple continants, rather than admit that the vowel changes in American English represent a modern divergence.

>>524314033
American English is closer to OG English mate

Follow the number of sound splits, mergers and changes. oh wait, you can't, you can only follow american propaganda because "muh russia muh russia".

America has an English accent. Englishman spoke the way Americans do now. The modern British accent didn't come into being until after colonialism as a means of differentiating themselves from what they viewed as barbaric colonists. It's based on gentile accents of the day. So it's not just American ignorance when we say they sound pompous. They literally do.
