With it being the English language it would have to be the English.
They do say however the american dialect is more how shakespear would have spoken.
It is the queens english which is referred to, and the queen speaks with an english accent.

the British do! the Americans take the words and depending on what state you are from like I am form Texas I sound as though I am a redneck or a cowgirl! the Americans take letters, vowels, consonants out-you name it and they change the whole way a word should be pronounced!they say words in a hurry therefore making them sound like nothing!maybe it is the American way to not articulate certain vowels in a word or to say a phrase way to fast therefore not pronouncing the words to the fullest! in my opinion the British will always have a better sense of pronunciation since what we are talking is not the real language but the British language is where you articulate and pause and let the other person know where a new sentence begins and you do not rush ythings but take them slower and say them better and with a more aritocrastic pronunciation as well as talking and everything!

I'm diong my comparison based of watching television. The 'american- television' english is better. They pronounce better and clearer as compared to 'british-television' english. Most people would have trouble understanding the slangs, British people use as they got some "air" with the way they speak and pronounce things. Only a certain class of educated or exposed people could pick up with what they say. However, I find that American english is the best way to pick up proper pronounciations or annunciations.

Both have a number of dialects...some similar to each other, for example, deep souththern US accent sounds a lot like some English ones. I think it's a draw. I think the best pronunciation of English language has more to do with the education level and training of the speaker, not so much country of origin.
