Russian
Ukrainian
South African
NZ
American from Oklahoma
American from LA
Mexican
etc etc

i can't really do em on my own, can't remember the details to well, but i'll but i can pick up on those accents and adapt to em in minutes..
Even on the phone, typically by the end of the call, i'm speaking the other guy's accent.
I don't really have an english accent of my own..

last year , somebody from norther england visited my uncle, and i was there.
Ended up talking with em, and they asked if i had lived in Leeds or something, because i had the accent and sayings nailed down so well. (best mate at previous work was from Leeds).
