what is the correct form?
somebody’s else accent: What do you understand by this?
somebody else’s accent: [size=150] idem[/size]
everybody’s accent: the same
everybody 's else’s: the same
[color=blue]somebody else’s accent is the correct form
Not quite sure what you want to say here. I guess idem could describe the way Americans pronounce the word [color=blue]item.
What exactly do you mean?
It should read everybody elses’s accent.[YSaerTTEW443543]

But what I meant was, what was the correct answer among all. and by [color=darkblue]idem: I meant the same which is: “what is the correct form” as in the first question.
Is it clear now? if not, let me now so I can work on my asking skills a little more?
Well, I think this doesn’t make sense.
This is the accent spoken by another person. For example, if the police replay a message on their answering machine in your presence asking you if that was your voice, you may say: No, that’s somebody else’s accent.
This simply describes the accent or accents that is or are spoken by everybody.
It should read [color=blue]everybody else’s accent, no need to add the possessive s twice.[YSaerTTEW443543]
