I like this question Amara. Sin embargo/However the so called American accent can be divided into many sub dialects/accents. For example it is probably easier for an American who speaks standard American English to understand a British accent than a southern rural accent. We also have the Cajun dialect accent of Louisiana. It sounds like a southern accent along with a French accent. In Maine there are also Americans who speak English with a French accent. We also have Ebonics a dialect/accent from American Blacks.

Any way I think it would be easier for somebody to understand our California accent. jajajajajajajajaja...That's laughter in Spanish. jajajajajajajajajajajja...
