While on holiday in the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg I stumbled, in L'essentiel, https://www.lessentiel.lu/multimedia/webpage/story/14138826 on this website https://accent.gmu.edu/ This is my translation from French in L'essentiel.

'This is a site of different English accents currently in use throughout the world. One can listen land by land, continent by continent. The webmasters invite you to contribute to the site with a sound sample. The accents are not only spoken but also written phonetically.' https://accent.gmu.edu/
