What is your favorite accent in the English language? American, British, Irish, Australian, ...?

To what extent does the contact you have with those varieties (e.g. on Netflix) influence your "choice"? :-)

Check out our new super interesting article by Karin Richter and Andreas Weissenbäck on attitudes towards different accents in English among student teachers of English! 👥👂🧑‍🏫
