That's for sure!
My father, my husband, and most of my family are British.
Predominant dialect in my family is Geordie. The British folks here will know that, when spoken among friends, outsiders may question whether they are actually speaking English.

@Highlands72 I know what you mean when I am talking with my DD and DH here we talk a lot faster together and our American parts of family cannot understand a word we are saying.
Generally we speak lot slower otherwise we are not understood. When I go home I have to stand in airport and just listen to get my ‘ear’ back in tune.
I have a Geordie pal here and we yak a mile a minute every time we meet up.

The accent I would like to go back home with the real New York accent - just really love to hear this ‘talk’.
