True. Not good enough for a language critic like me unfortunately lol XD

But just so you know, I also trained my vocal cords in order to become a voice actor and special effects creator so I understand perfectly what it means to pull off accents and I applaud the dub for doing so but I still prefer authenticity so people don't get this "stereotypical" illusion. Just because most people of a country speak with heavy accents doesn't mean all of them do so stereotyping actually hurts. Even I was told I have a Sri Lankan accent despite the Sri Lankan accent sounding horrendous. For some reason girls in my country sound better speaking English, it is like their vocal cords have the ability to become posh. Not the same story for the males though. I sometimes feel that we are a different breed or something since the accent sounds so strange. However, educated English sounds very different; You don't feel it weird and it sounds natural, and I thought I had it but it appears I do use some local expressions that give it away. My father says that I am not that bad though and I try my best to keep to the Educated English instead of the localized version majority speak. My father himself developed American accent before he developed the British accent so he is in a different league and you can't tell his nationality when he is overseas. Plus he can also do German, Japanese and Chinese accent to boot and it sounds authentic as hell O_O
