Posted by: Sean O'Neill, Tuesday, May 20, 2008, 1:55 PM

An American actress named Amy Walker has created a YouTube video, "21 Accents," in which she introduces herself in 21 accents…"from the UK and Ireland to Italy, Germany, Czech Republic, Russia, France, Australia, New Zealand, and around North America."

It's a treat to listen to.
