whenever i go down south to my cousins they sound so posh its like 'how do u talk so properly without putting a voice on'

thanks :biggrin:

i like received pronunciation tbh but i can put on a v good posh voice so its all gud bc my mum is from down south so shes posh toooo


It is a boring accent though, apparently it is a misleading accent and not trustworthy lol.

Aw. Have you ever been to Luton? They hate us down there lol.



Are you serious? :tongue:


As a non-native speaker, I find English interesting, I hate grammar :angry:
I used to have a Northern Irish accent aged 4-5 but it's been RP since I was 5/6 years old.

I speak with the RP (Received Pronunciation) accent so it is fairly standard.


Grew up in the North but I speak with an RP accent.

A bizarre mix of Yorkshire and Dorset. I moved up here when I was 4.

It is nice but people think I am snobby with the accent. It isn't like I chose the accent, the accent chose me lol. :tongue:
