Imagine a British accent. Now imagine that that is what’s normal; everyone in your country speaks it. Suddenly American sounds very different.

Specifically in my limited experience stuff like pronouncing t’s like d’s and soft back-in-the-throat r’s. “Budder” vs. “buttah”, for example. American vowels tend to sound larger as well in my experience.
