Today, we are talking about accents, in particular British accents, in particular the five hardest British accents to understand.
Now a few disclaimers, okay.
We have many, many, many different accents in the UK.
Some of them are so far away from each other that they don't even sound like they're from the same country.
So when people say "I love the British accent" or "I want to learn a British accent", it doesn't really make sense because a British accent can sound like this: "And then I messaged her back and then she messaged me back and it was pretty glorious".
But also a British accent can sound like this:
"Can I ask the Honorable Gentleman, what work is being done to make sure that this place is more accessible, particularly for some of our colleagues who have a disability?"
Or like this: "Oh and she went 'that's lucky I'm going that way, I give him a lift!'"
So if you are at all interested in British English, you really need to get familiar with the accents of the UK.
If by a British accent you mean how I'm speaking right now, you actually mean an RP accent or a Standard English accent.
