Emphasis on the wrong syllable tends to happen all too often. Due to more than half of the population is bilingual in both Senyonese and English, the accent is not as strong as it's neighbors (China, Japan, Korea respectively... naval borders mind you), but it is still quite distinct.

Some noticeable traits.

Trilled 'r' (more common in Northern speakers) when the 'r' precedes a vowel (be it monophthong or diphthong).

Omitted 'r' when the 'r' is meant to be a fluid.

Omitted 'k' when it is at the end of a word.

Lack of 'l' sounds, may be omitted entirely (Southerners and South Easterners tend to this) Supplemented with a 'r' pr m

No sense of euphemism.

Vowels are pronounced as they are spelled.

Tendency to use 'ji(k)u' or 'jin' to put emphasis on certain words. Jiku is used by southerners.

Bilanda is a multilingual country, so accents vary. But the dominant accents would primarily be of East Asian origin and an accent akin to British, however with a deeper, low-pitched tone.

The Rhinosaurs have taught us how to speak in grunts and charges. We likely hold a slightly lower treble banded grunt than other Rhinosaur-affiliated populations, and our charges consist of more arm-flailing than usual.

Catarran dialects are relatively uniform, and are mutually intelligible. They are divided into two blocks, Eastern and Western, differing mostly in pronunciation.
Standard Catarran, is a variety accepted by virtually all speakers is regulated by the Institute of Catarran Linguistical Studies (IELC), Which revises grammar, orthography and word accepcions.

Catarran shares many traits with the language of the conquerors and colons of Catarra. Whicj spoke Romance languages. However, being mostly from the Iberian Peninsula, Catarran, in terms of vocabulary, pronunciation, and grammar evolutionated closer to Gallo-Romance (French, Italian, Occitan, Catalan, etc.).These similarities are most notable with Catalan and Occitan.
It has influence of arabic and berber substrate of former native inhabitants language but in colloquial speech, as culte speech is more romanised than colloquial.

Catarran has an inflectional grammar, with two genders (masculine, feminine), and two numbers (singular, plural). Pronouns are also inflected for case, animacy and politeness, and can be combined in very complex ways. Verbs are split in several paradigms and are inflected for person, number, tense, aspect, mood, and gender. In terms of pronunciation, Catalan has many words ending in a wide variety of consonants and some consonant clusters, in contrast with many other Romance languages.

On the other hand Native. Catarran arab.

Catarran arab is a Semitic language descended from Siculo-Arabic and moriscos Language. is written in latin script. The only places in which in cult use is used classic arab and arab script is in Choranic works. In the course of its history has been influenced by Sicilian, Catalan, occitan and italian, to a lesser extent French and English. Today, the core vocabulary (including both the most commonly used vocabulary and function words) is Semitic, with large numbers of loan words, than can be accountend to almost 50% of the language, but in cult use the number of loans are higher than in colloquial use. Because of the romance influence on Siculo-Arabic, Catarran arab has many language contact features and is most commonly described as a language with a large number of romance loanwords.

Catarran arab dialects are relatively uniform, and are mutually intelligible. They are divided into two blocks coastal (northwestern and eastern) and central-southern. They differ in the romance influence level.

Depends.

Human: An Italo-German accent
Pegasi Pony: A bit whispy, like air, and the "h"s are drawn out in a gaspy way. Every sentence sounds as if it's a last breath.
Earth Pony: Down-to-earth Texan/Southern
Unicorn Pony: A rich, upper-class accent; always sound like they're wasting their time talking to you.
Sea Pony: Like a drunk gargling salt water.
All Ponies: Use the "MLP" dialect, which includes replacing references to sapients with the word "pony" (everypony, somepony, nopony, etc.)
Hamster: Squeaky, nervous, sounds like they'll die from stress in a few seconds.
Dragon: A loud, roaring bass that may or may not shatter your eardrums.
Wolves: A long, howling way of speaking, which sounds a lot like they're getting stabbed with pins at the end of every sentence.
Dogs: Simplistic, creole speech that uses "me" instead of "I" and "wanna" instead of "to want." Sometimes indecipherable.
Cats: Lots of "nyahs" and "meows." Also, lots of exclamations based on tuna and sardines: "Tuna-tastic! Sardine-mazing!"
Avian: Lots of screeches. Also sound like they're beings tabbed with pins, but much more often than wolves.

... and that SHOULD cover MOST of them. Probably more that I forgot, though. :(

Considering that we're composed of the former countries of Japan, Korea, and Taiwan, our accent when speaking English sounds like someone from Japan, Korea, or Taiwan speaking English. Depends on where in Aikoland you are mind, obviously someone from the Korean part will have a different accent from someone in another part and vice versa.

'Corish' - Finglish. English with Fenno-Ugristic syntactic structures, limited grammar and vocabulary = Northern Cimmerian Mountain accent with heavy tendency invent new words, use terms in semantically wrong contexts, generally blunt, straightforward and low styled pidgin, particularly that if spoken when severely drunken.

(The Speaker of Corish has been warned by Moderation at least thrice due these linguistic characteristics) :p

'Canonic Corish' is some sort semi secret battle tongue, used during NS updates and in raiding activities. Known only by Few Hardcore raiders.

by Braberbourg
The citizens of Braberbourg spreak the Braberbourger dialect, which is a sub-dialect of Low Alemannic, which is itself a sub-dialect of High German, etc. Our citizens tend to speak more rapid and pronounce certain words in a more Romantic (as in the Romantic Languages) style, while a lot of daily words are derived from French. However, these aren't grammatically correct and our politicians speak Standard German.

When speaking English, our citizens sound like the typical German except the fact that the famous 'z' sound in 'th' (example: Ze phone is ringing) often rather sounds like a short 'd'* sound (example: De** phone is ringing). Shorter words such as 'is' are often replaced by the German equivalent, like 'ist' (example: The phone ist ringing).

*Most likely caused due to French influences.
**Sounds the same as in the Dutch word 'de'.

The Beaatraen accent is generally Irish/German/English if you could imagine such a thing. Sometimes "ch" is pronounced as a "k". Tsutegne (the capital city of Beaatrae), is pronounced "su-tay-n". "O" is pronounced slightly like "oo" e.g. Gud (meaning good), is pronounced almost g-ood.
