Can you generally tell where someone is based on their accent if they're native?
The Australian accent is fairly uniform.
a Cockney crams all the vowels into one word.
Scottish, Welsh and Northern Irish accents are distinct but is the UK one country or four?

- The New Zealand accent is also fairly uniform (but subtly different from the Australian accent).

Lol. I find the kiwi accent more like a South African than an Australian one.
Would you consider the four different languages to be a hint?
