Does the word `glass` in your accent rhyme with `farce` or `gas`? I`m assuming that `farce` rhymes with `glass` in Received Pronunication.

I can't imagine it. I've read that different regions of Australia have quite different patterns of what rhymes with 'gas' and what rhymes with 'arse'. It's not as similar to any one region of England as people might assume.
