The Magic of Accents
I got yer accent right here buddy...
American English
American English
American English
American English
American English (actually this one's probably its own language)
This is the spectrum of dialects you hear when you walk 10km across every european country lol
I am a non native english speaker but could understand every accent you posted easily, meanwhile most native germans dont understand Platt-german, deep-Bavarian or Swiss-german like at all. You pick up a word or four per sentence but thats about it.
We also don't want to understand the dialects mentioned. Dutchmen can go to Holland and the rest learn German you Schluchtenscheißer.
I know this is mostly a joke but it's also exactly why that shit happens in the first place. Shibboleths to signal group identity.

The former Frenchmen speaks the best, other English should take him as example
