Heavy accent
Hello. I've just read in my textbook that someone can't be English because he speaks English with a heavy accent. Isn't it true, though, that someone could be English, but come from a region in England where they speak with a heavy/strong accent? I'm a bit confused.

anonymous someone can't be English because he speaks English with a heavy accent. What they mean is "a heavy foreign accent". If you have a good ear, sometimes you can even guess pretty accurately what their native language is.

- Yes, there are strong accents in many places in the world where people speak English, but that's probably not the kind of accent that your textbook was referring to.
