Actually, Americans still have the original British accent. We kept it over time and Britain didn’t. What we currently coin as a British accent developed in England during the 19th century among the upper class as a symbol of status. Historians often claim that Shakespeare sounds better in an American accent.

Fun fact: Same thing happened with the French accent. French Canadians still have the original French accent from the 15th century.

I’ve been trying to find this post for months. I’m freakishly obsessed with this and want the truth of what early colonists sounded like.

I thought the southern drawl was tied more to Irish and the New England accent is more the British. or other way around. I don’t remember. Something about Bostonians and Brits both dropping their R’s.
