In British accent^x, Vowels^x

I tried, but failed. It's really difficult even though English is not my first language. I love how British English sounds, but I feel more comfortable and confident when I speak in American English. Besides, some vowels, like British 'short o' sound is really hard for me to...

If you're not doing a posh accent - 'th' words such a throat, threat, something, think, thing, that have the 'th' sound - involving using your tongue between your teeth to say them - if you get what I mean (!) are pronounced with the 'f' sound so froat, fret, somefing,...

It's spelled "Greenwich" (well, the ones I know are anyway). I'm from England, and I pronounce it "Gren-itch", with the first "e" pronounced as in "met". Some people in England say "Grin-itch", the "i" as in "bit"....

Hi, hmm, I see, but that wouldn't be a good transcription then. The way it would be read would vary from person to person. For example, you could say that people from Boston don't say GOD, but GAWD. Well, all the speakers with the cot-caught merger (that is, thy don't distinguish...

To speak the British accent, try dragging out your vowels. Don't clearly pronounce your 'R's; make your 'R's sound like an ahsound. Oh, rent some movies such as: Harry Potter or Narnia: The Lion,the Witch,and the Wardrobe, to see what they sound like. Good Luck!

Not wishing to offend, but there's little more cringingly funny than someone who thinks they're speaking with a perfect upper-class British accent - unless it's someone who thinks they're speaking with a credible cockney accent. Don't get me wrong - there are some super-talented actors who...

I have mentioned this before on this website, but I hope it will help you. I am poet who has made available freely about 240 of my own poems on the internet, but I have also added my clear English voice to each poem to help both overseas students studying the English language and especially...

I am American and speak with a very good British accent just from hearing it a lot over about five years. I watch Harry Potter movies, and other shows have a random British actor, i spent a month in London. I didn't even know I could do it until I tried imitating Hermione. To perfect it i...

>> whoa. i am from central ny (for those of us who know that upstate is not anything above westchester). we definitely do not have the accent or use any of those pronunciations that you mentioned. << Haha. I see what's going on. Check this out. Xam0 said: cat - keeyat mat -...
