My dad can’t understand British accents. He once had lunch with a British friend named Bob. Took me along as translator. Bob spoke, my dad looked at me, and I’d repeat what Bob said in an American accent. At first Bob thought we were playing a joke. 1/

I have a kiwi friend who is a sign language interpreter. He spent time in the UK and was told he signs with a Kiwi Accent. But he can also interpret from American Sign Language

I once rewrote dialogue as an "English to English" translator. I feel your pain too. I've served that role more than once during my days in the British army!!

Growing up we lived in south England for a while. Our neighbors were a Cornish husband and Scottish wife. My dad couldn’t understand the Cornish guy, and needed an interpreter. We all liked each other, but Cornish guy would have to bring Scottish wife over to ask for the paper
