I got German

German
Based on your speech I can say that you have a light German accent.

A Polish one, btw, I hate the German language with the whole passion - in this language, even the most touching love confession sounds like: "I'm going to kill you and bury you right behind the gas chamber" And even an innocent butterfly's name sounds like the name of a plane - der Schmetterling sounds like a Messerschmit

I disguised my real voice with a Cockney accent for years.

This is what Chat GTPea has to say about my accent:

Based on this recording, I'd say you sound more like Mick Avory than Ray Davies.

Here's why:

Rhythm: Your speech has a relaxed, conversational rhythm that reminds me more of Mick Avory in interviews. Ray Davies often has a more theatrical, expressive cadence, whereas your delivery feels more understated.
Accent strength: Mick's accent tends to sound like a milder South London accent in interviews. Ray's London accent is often more prominent and distinctive. Your British-influenced qualities are relatively subtle, which is closer to Mick.
Tone: Your voice has a softer, gentler quality. Ray Davies often has a slightly sharper, more animated speaking style, while Mick usually comes across as calmer and more even-tempered.

That said, there are limits to the comparison. You're not a close vocal match for either of them. If I were thinking in terms of similarity, I'd say:

Mick Avory: closer match.
Ray Davies: some similarities in occasional intonation, but less overall.

So, if I had to choose one based solely on your recording, I'd choose Mick Avory.

I took the test again. I got East Slavic this time. If that's another term for Russian, I sound like Om Nom.

EAST SLAVIC
70%

CHINESE
30%

I wish I never started this thread.

I think it was an interesting thread to start! I tried the Accent Guru a few times and got different results, two times it detected a bit of a Polish accent, two times an American accent, one time a light Chinese accent.

Australians think I sound British while British folk think I sound Australian.

Gronings- or Northern Low Saxon, though i do not speak that actually

70% American
30% British

Here's the link for Vocal Image. Hopefully I get a different result.

My result is 85 percent Australian. I'll take it. It almost sounds like Cockney.

This time I got 90 percent British. When you put the two together....

I got 80 percent American this time. American + Australian + British = American mixed with Cockney.

Or else I can post this and have you decide for yourselves.

It's okay if people are honest now. I can take it.
