How do American accents sound to British ears? Their accents sound so refined to us. Do we sound refined to them?
英国人听美式口音什么感觉?我们感觉他们的口音很有教养,他们听我们的口音也觉得有教养吗?

No, and I think the main reason for this is the “prestige non-rhotacism” of British Received Pronunciation.
不。我认为主要原因是英式英语标准发音中“著名的不r音化”。
You know how typically in American accents you can always hear the “r” sound? Well that's rhoticism, and it's perhaps the difference between British and American accents that most stands out.
你知道美式发音中最有特点的就是你总能听到“r”这个音吗?那就是“r音化”,这可能就是英美发音最显著的区别。
One of the things that really gets up our noses is “Americanisms”. In Victorian times we would play fast and loose with our own language to our heart's content, but with the old order upended a large number of these innovations started to come from the wrong side of the Atlantic, and so to preserve our Britishness it is now our duty to identify and reject all such dilutions of our pure language. After all, it's called English so it must be ours!
有一件我们真正讨厌的事是“美国腔”,在维多利亚时期我们根据心情会把自己的语言说得时快时慢,但随着旧的社会秩序被推翻,大西洋彼岸传过来大量类似的语言创新,所以为了把英式英语的特色保留下来,现在我们有责任识别并抵制所有类似的对我们纯洁语言的侵犯。毕竟,它叫作“英语”,所以必须是我们的!
