Dude. I have an accent.
Either that or none of them are from northern China and so arrived at that conclusion by process of elimination. <grin>
Whilst everone *outside of Beijing* says that standard Mandarin is a Beijing accent, people who live inside the city know tht the Beijing accent has nothing to do with standarad Mandarin, ...
Reminds me of how everyone says that the "standard" American TV English accent is from Ohio. If you ever spend time around people with actual Ohio accents you know that isn't true.
It's more west coast, but then not even that. So far as I can tell, it's an honest-to-Betsy hybrid.
But this thread is about Chinese, not English.
Grats on your creds!
