Can you tell Canadian English from American English? - 01-15-2011, 11:59 AM

That's pretty much the question.



By watching this video, if you had absolutely no clue who Avril Lavigne was, would you be able to tell she is Canadian cause of her accent?

Or like, Kate from Lost, was there something Canadian about hers?

I don't want you guys telling me how Canadians say "aboot" or "eh" at the end of each sentence all the time, I wanna know if you actually find there is an obvious audible difference between Canadian English and the standard American English. Easy, right?


everything is relative and contradictory ~
