English Accents
Accents are a way of speaking a language that is characterized by pronunciation patterns specific to a particular region. Unlike dialects, accents have more to do with how you pronounce words than vocabulary or grammar. Here are some notable English accents:
* Received Pronunciation (RP): Often associated with the British upper class and used in education.
* Cockney: Spoken by some Londoners, known for its rhyming slang.
* Estuary English: A blend of RP and Cockney, increasingly common in London.
* Scouse: Distinctive accent heard in Liverpool and surrounding areas
