Plus, I have had extended conversations with British and other native speakers from around the world. While we may have avoided regionalisms peculiar to our own English, no one felt compelled to grunt monosyllables to communicate. For your sake I hope you move more adroitly on canvas than you do on paper. There is no reason why anyone who doesn't come from your part of Great Britain to either speak or understand a language only slightly more modern than Beowulf. lol, as you are so overly fond of saying.

Frankly, most dialects from northern England sound more like speech impediments to me than a proper language

Mid Western Americans speak a very pure form of English with zero accent.
