well if you mean decent then you are saying something is neither extraordinary or bland and if your saying descend then that means to move down or lower something or yourself.

After your first Rosetta Stone lesson for French you have the French accent but of a different region-does this mean you are of French descent even though you don't know your parents nationality?

there are lots of French accents, just as English ones. The fact your way of speaking matches one of them doesn't mean you are of French descent, and the fact you speak without any hint of French accent doesn't mean that you are not of French descent.
