Does have and half sound the same?
"haff" doesn't sound the same as "half" for about 50% of the population of the UK.
Yes. Including natives of Manchester, where NamelessKing currently resides.
In that case, the NamelessKing would be well advised to be aware that sounds are not universal in English.
So who are you ultimately trying to sound like? An African-American from Los Angeles? Can you name an example of a famous American person whom you want to be like?
Indeed, they aren't. I watch content mainly in AmE and I don't really pay too much attention to the wide variety of accents in Oxford Road.
