    Do the British here know the difference between the Northern and Southern Dutch accent?

    heehee, except for saying "my english is so impeccable" instead of "my english is impeccable." tiny difference, charming, but a difference that someone really listening may catch.

    The Southern accent is beautiful and sounds very friendly and has a certain careless ring to it and the Northern accent has lots of very ugly throat sounds.
