The most universal difference I've come across is how "t" is pronounced.  In 
America it seems nobody actually pronounces it as a "t" but more of a soft 
"d" sound.  To me, an American who says "Dakota" sounds pretty much the same 
as "Dakoda", in an average British English accent they are completely 
different sounds.
