In what city in the UK would you hear a scouse accent?
'Scouse' is the name for the accent spoken by those who live in Liverpool. At one time it was almost a dialect with lots of local words. It tends to be much less broad than it was fifty years ago, as we all are exposed to different accents through the media. I can only hear my own when I listen to a recording.
What type of Irish accent does Mullingar people uses?
As it is in the middle of Ireland, the people there would have an Irish midlands accent. You would have to hear one to know what it is like.
Who came up with the phrase scouser?
No one person came up with it. 'scouse' comes from the Norweigian 'lapskaus', a lamb and vegetable stew, commonly eaten by working-class Liverpudlians. Liverpudlian dialects first became known as a 'scouse' accent due to this, and from there came 'scousers'.
Difference between an English accent and a British accent?
All English accents are British accents, but not all British accents are English accents. That's because England is one country in the nation of Great Britain. So if one was to speak in a 'scouse' or 'cockney' accent, this would be both English and British. But if you were from Wales, while your accent is a British one, it is not English.
Is the Irish accent as clear as it is in films etc or is it more flat?
the Irish accent you here in most films is actually a dublin accent, i come from derry and although the accent has some simalilarities is isn't the same, and it is the same for all the counties, each county has its own accent. and the dublin accents you here on tv are pretty much the same as the natural dublin accent, except the natural accent may be a bit rougher. Whenever I hear a foreign actor doing an Irish actor I recognise it as an Irish accent. However there is not one person in the country who would talk like that. I don't know how you think its a Dublin accent mate. Most Irish accents in movies are bull. They're either a bad Northern Ireland accent on a guy who, predictably, was "in the I.R.A." or a very terrible, barely recognizable Connaught accent, exagerated so it sounds like a leprechaun. IRISH ACCENTS IN MOVIES ARE NOTHING LIKE THE REAL THING. Bear in mind the Beatles. They all had godawful Scouse (Liverpool Irish) accents, but affected "American" accents for vocals and interviews. Then watch "The Commitments"

What does a Donegal accent sound like?
It is difficult to describe an accent. You really have to hear it, or be familiar with a similar accent. A Donegal accent is basically a milder Northern Ireland accent, but is still al ot harsher than other counties in the Republic of Ireland. Despite Donegal having a Northern Ireland accent it is part of the Republic of Ireland. Accents are not determined by borders and as you travel around Ireland you have different accents, which slowly change as you go from one area to another.
Is it possible to speak British in a Chinese accent?
If a Chinese speaker learned English from British teachers, an American might listen to him/her and hear some elements of British mixed with some elements of a Chinese accent. If a Chinese (or Mexican, or Russian) learned English from American teachers and then spoke to a Brit, the Birt would likely hear some words and phrases that sounded American, and others that sounded like the speaker's first language.

What is an Irish slang word for boy?
Ireland, like any country, has many different accents. So there is no one way of saying it. You would just have to listen to different accents to see hear how they would be said. You cannot really type out an accent phonetically.
Does Johnny Depp have an accent?
Of course Johnny Depp has an accent! Everybody has an accent! However, I presume you mean, does he have an accent other than an American one. The answer to that would appear to be a resounding yes. He does seem to have lost his native Kentucky accent and when I saw him on Graham Norton recently he definitely had more than a hint of Irishness there. Perhaps it's because he's talking to Graham and is one of those people who can't help but take on the accent of the person they're talking to. I hope it's this and not just effectuation.
