History
The Southern-British accent started when Southern Americans emigrated to the United Kingdom. Being in a close vicinity of the British accent, these newcomers picked up the British accent while retaining their own Southern accents. The same effect results when the British emigrate to South (US). However, because of the lack of British emigrants to America, only a few Americans are familiar with this beautiful sounding accent.

Speaking
CAUTION! This accent is one of the hardest ones to master. However once one gets a hang of it, this accent comes naturally. Many listeners criticize the sound of this dialect. But, don't let them get you down and instead tell them to close their eyes and listen to it. Once they hear it with an open mind, they will be dying to listen to it. CAUTION! For those who are able to speak it: do not feel pressure...when under pressure, one will be unable to speak it.
