The reason why English don't use the French "r" and other such things is due to our accent (or lack thereof.)
It has nothing to do with accent. It has to do with the fact that it's not our language.

And bruschetta is an English word. Borrowed from Italian. Like many, many others. There is not "simply the Italian way". Table comes from French. Do you say it the French way?
