Depends on what you want to say??
She sounds South African.. But with a pommy accent..
People in South Africa do have their own language....but often speak English as well; although in a strong South African accent.AnswerBy what definition is the South African accent "weird"? Like most accents, the pronunciations in South African English in large part comes from another language, in this case Afrikaans, a form of Dutch, although it is a language in its own right. To many Afrikaaners, English was a second language, so their English was heavily accented. This accent gradually permeated through English as spoken in South Africa, even amongst British and other English-speaking immigrants.It will be seen that the South African accent will change with time now that that country has majority black rule, where Zulus, Xhosa etc have positions of wealth, power and influence and their languages and accents will modify the existing South African accent.
I'm presuming you mean an accent to English? In that case the preffered (or proper) accent is British English. The actual accent of the speaker is determined by his home language (there are 11 official languages in South Africa). If you want to see a good example of an accent and manner of speaking English in South Africa, watch the movie Blood Diamond. Leonardo Di Caprio does a very good Afrikaans accent of English in the movie, which is typical in South Africa.

South Africans do not generally have British accents; instead, they typically have distinct South African accents influenced by various languages and regional dialects. However, due to historical ties and the presence of British settlers, some South Africans, particularly in urban areas or among certain social groups, may exhibit a British-influenced accent. Overall, while there may be similarities, South African accents are unique and varied.
