I would think that American English would be
more popular though. I mean, most entertainment
like TV shows, movies, music, etc. (that are in English)
are from here. I don't even get why Queens English
is taught over American English in Europe...
Who cares? You can still communicate with each other.

As previously said, it all depends on the teachers. I believe there are more American English teachers out there than British English, so it seems to be more popular. Plus it is often used in commercials, so it's very popular.

I'm Mid-Western, and we pronounce everything phonetically.

Also, a little off topic, but I recently was told that Chicagoans are the only people with junk drawers and pronounce 'front room' as 'frunch room' sometimes. xDD
Does anyone else have a junk drawer? ._o

Ohhh I gotta junk drawer!
And a "frunch room"!
XDD

I personally love the way we talk.
'Cause...
Chicago is the best city in the States.
And Illinois is the best state in the US.
(^_^)

Remember the old Eagleman insurance
commercials?
With Mancow on 'em?
XDD
Oh, and Empire and Luna!
XDD

Do doubt about it! xD

Oh oh! "Seven Seven Three, Two-oh-two. *boopboopbooopboop* LLLUUNNNAAA!"

Haha yeahhhh!!!

It's funny though. You see a movie like "The Dark Knight", a huge Hollywood production

Director ... Christopher Nolan (British)

Christian Bale ... Bruce Wayne / Batman (Welsh)

Heath Ledger ... The Joker (Australian)

Aaron Eckhart ... Dist. Atty. Harvey Dent (USA)

Michael Caine ... Alfred (British)

Maggie Gyllenhaal ... Rachel Dawes (USA)

Gary Oldman ... Gordon (British)

It's turning into what may be the biggest American movie ever, and only 2 of the major players are American! It really goes to show how talented, some of these actors are. I didn't know for a long time that Gary Oldman and Christian Bale weren't American until I saw actual interviews with them. Blew me away. Michael Caine is the only one that keeps his natural accent...(or at least isn't doing an American accent).

Welsh counts as British xD

Yeah, and that movie was awesome as all hell!
I didn't realize they weren't American either...

But I mean, like, shows that're exported overseas from here.

Here in Czech we usually learn Brittish English. Because the way Brittish pronounce is easier to understand for us.
But lately there has been a lot american teachers so it changes.

I prefer brittish english though.

As an Australian, the American-English seems to be the most common to me.

Apart from Ireland, we are the closest linked country to England and even we don't speak English-English on a whole.

As for accents, a lot of people I know find English-English harder to understand, for example, in American it's "Fish and chips" where in England it's "fesh n' cherps".

So my advice would be to copy the American variations and accent, but whatever works for you!
