It really doesn't matter. Native English speakers (American and English) will be far more impressed if you have a good vocabulary and good use of grammar than if you have perfected a particular accent. As a native English speaker, I tend to assume that people who speak English as a foreign language adopt the accent of their teacher, or of the area that they learnt English in.

How is Webster's dictionary different from a British dictionary?
Webster's dictionary is an American English dictionary that was originally written and continues to be edited with American English spellings, definitions and colloquialisms in mind. There are many words in Webster's dictionary that have different definitions than they would in a British dictionary. For example the word "lift" used in America as in "Can I get a lift?" would mean, "Can I have a ride?" In a British dictionary, the word "lift" might refer to an elevator lift. An example of a spelling difference can be seen in the American English word "theater" and the British English word "theatre". These words have the exact same definition and differ only in the way that they are spelled. Despite being recognized as two distinct dialects, American English and British English are mutually intelligible. This means that a speaker of American English should be able to hold a complete conversation with a speaker of British English with negligible difficulty.

Is there a short a sound in the word what?
The answer is yes and no - this depends on the accent of the speaker. In general, an English speaker would pronounce "what" as /wɒt/, hence without any "a" sound (ɒ is short "o" sound). An American speaker would pronounce it either as /wɑː t/ or /wʌt/, hence only the last variant has the short "a" sound (ʌ). This is a dictionary pronunciation and may vary from speaker to speaker.
