There's no such thing as a standard Midlands accent. For one thing East and West Midlands are vastly different. Also north and south, cross the border from Staffordshire into the Black Country and the change is very noticeable. PS: Black Country is a dialect not an accent.

Even as a born-and-bred Brit I have to agree. Sometimes I find myself in a town only a 30 minute drive away that has a completely different accent to what I'm used to. The USA has many accents too, of course. But it's such massive nation, it makes sense that people in NYC sound different to those in LA. In the UK you sometimes only have to go to the opposite end of town to find a new accent 😅

@@eddyvideostar you are misunderstanding what it means, black country is a region of an area in the west Midlands UK.. We have a very strong dialect that is hard to understand, its known as the black country dialect. We get the name as we were an industrial area in the 17th 18th century onwards where there were lots of factories & foundries pumping out smog that made the brick work etc black.

Even among the Latino accents, though I don't quite make out the exact countries, there are differences in the Peruvian, Cuban, Puerto Rican, Mexican, Guatemalan, etc accents which could be made out!
