    Um...whether you're American, or British, or an Aussie, or a Kiwi, you speak English. They don't have different languages. You mean, it'd be interesting to hear Kimberly speak with an American accent.

    Oh right, I guess I didn't realize that, my bad. I guess I meant to say it'd be interesting to hear her speak with in an American accent.

    Basic gameplay, pretty much the same as the first game. As the game progresses from easy to advanced, you definitely feel a sense of being challenged. Advanced Moogers with new gear and power ups, several obstacles that you have pay close attention too, and other additions that make this version more enjoyable.

    Except she wouldn't be speaking with an American accent. Her lines are still in english, her native tongue, and thus her speech wouldn't be accented by any other spoken language. The dialect of english she'll be using will be different then her usual, but that's as far as it goes.

    ....Which is considered to be an accent.....

    A distinctive mode of pronunciation of a language, esp. one associated with a particular nation, locality, or social class.
    Yes, she'd still speaking English, but with an American accent on it, which is pretty different than an Aussie one. There's a distinct difference with how Americans and Aussie's pronounce words like "Water", "Or", "Saw" etc because of their accent. Same with putting a Brit, a Kiwi, and an Aussie side by side. People can barely tell the difference between them when they talk because of their accents (people I've seen generally just think they're all British), but their accents are very different (this I've gathered from personal experience).

    Not to mention we have some different words. In the UK, a sidewalk is called a pavement, and car fuel is called petrol instead of gas. I don't know which words are different in NZ, but if such a word is used, it'll be the American one.

    No, accents are rather specifically about the influence that one language has on a speaker's use of another. The differences you note certainly exist, but are technically dialectical in nature, not accentual.
