Accent variations can be influenced by exposure to different accents, media consumption, social interactions, and individual speech patterns. It's not uncommon for accents to shift slightly over time, especially if you are exposed to American English more frequently. Your accent may also change based on factors like tiredness or comfort levels, which could explain sounding more American at night.
Do british people go around using American accents?

If you were born in Belgium and lived there for only 2 years but you didn't know how to speak and then you moved to the US would you have an accent?
No.No.Accents are acquired from those who are around us most. You can pick up an accent any time in your life after you have learned to speak. As anyone who has been in the Army can attest, accents come and go depending on whom you are around and what parts of the world you find yourself. Move to the American south and you will likely pick up a southern accent. Germans I knew who learned English from Brits spoke with a British accent but an underlying German accent as well. So, in answer to your question, you would not likely have a Belgian accent unless you picked it up from your Belgian-speaking parents, and yes, you would have an accent that corresponded to the region of the US to which you had moved.
