Americans also seem to believe that their accent, which generally sounds awful to other speakers, is somehow natural and easy to understand for everyone.
I turn on closed captions for most American films, but I find that I rarely need them for British ones.
What a weird comment. I think that probably most Americans, like most people of any nationality, could give two shits if people elsewhere find their accent hard to understand, or “awful”.
Hollywood movies specifically target a global audience and not just a domestic one.
The US is only at most 30% of Hollywood revenue.
Haha, sounds like we’re still winning despite the “awful” accent.
Hope you find some peace with it!
