Ya mean y'all done gittit 'en them sutherners sowwnds liaaake dis?
(for non southern people that's "You mean you don't get it when southerners sound like this?"
Some accents are more difficult for me to understand than others. I'm fine with any of the English Speaking accents, some of the dialects throw me now and then though.
Some non English accents are very hard for me to understand, but I was raised with American English and Salishan being the only two languages I ever heard (the later only form my grandparents) so, If it isn't English speaking, and ins't the nasal like quality of Salishan, I usually have to listen carefully to understand it.
