Gawd I have the hardest time understanding thick British accents. It's as difficult as a a thick Scottish accent. I feel like a dork cause they can understand me just fine.

Why is that? Do you think it's because of the American English used in the movies?

3. My husband is Pakistani
And speaks beautiful English, but sometimes he'll enunciate something in such a way that I just cannot understand him, which frustrates him immensely.

And his mouth was full of spotted dick.
