british accent

Technically, any one of the many accents and dialects spoken in the British Isles - Technically. But only use it if you know and respect this fact. Never use "Britain" as a substitute for England in case you offend the Celts who will probably beat the crap out of you for your troubles (Being Welsh myself, I can pretty well guarantee it)

It is not specifically "English Accent". If you want to say someone has an English Accent. Then it is common sensical to say "English Accent" as opposed to the potentially irritating generalization.

Make no mistake. I, for one, and many others like me will not let you use the term "Britsh Accent" (OR British anything else where you actually should have said English)
without some form of protest. Be it verbal or physical.
There are no examples because the "British Accent" is a non-entity.

assential

Combination of "ass" and "essential" together. Having a physical characteristic that makes a person's ass the best part of the person.
(tongue in cheek) Her assential qualities make up for her lack of personality.

Joisey Accent

The "Jersey" accent, which only the Italians living very close to New York actually have, yet is misconstruded to represent the whole state.
Yeah, I'm from Jersey. Sojo, actually. Don't have the Joisey accent. You want that, go up to Noith Joisey.

New York Accent

A New York Accent is how working class whites in the city speak. It involves dropping r's off words that have them (father-fatha) and adding them to words that don't (soda-sodar). Changing and adding "oi" in words (oil-erl). Pronouncing the "th" as a "d" or "t" (the-da)(through-trew). There are three major New York accents:Italian, Irish, and Jewish. Blacks speak differently that would not be considered a New York accent. The New York Accent is more prominant in older people and is being lost in younger people as they imitate fake upper class whites from the midwest that they see on tv.
Guy 1: I'm gonna take da LIE tah go see my fatha out on da island.

Guy 3: Yeah, I was born in Bushwick

Abercrombie Accent

What is obtained from working too long for the Abercrombie corporation or a natural born gift that leads you to Abercrombie/Hollister/Gilly Hicks. Speech patterns turn everything into a bored drawl with hyper inflections on "like" and "I don't know".
Did you go out last night?" "Ahh, like, kinda... I mean, I don't know. I guess I hung out with Bobby for, like, a while. It was pretty hott. I don't know, like, what did you do?" "Can you repeat that without your Abercrombie Accent please?"
