تفاوت های لهجه و گویش

This French coffee

C’est tres bien!

I love it.

VOILA!”

“Would you like a cup of tea mate?”

“Wuddup homie?

I ain’t no more for…

Yo Wussup?

Can you hold this cup of coffee

and speak more clearly?

What are you talking about?

You wanna say I speak no clear?

Is that what you mean?

Look at this dude

No really!

Is that what you mean?

What’s up everybody?

As you might have guessed by now

we’re gonna talk about the differences among accents

and dialects of course.

First of all, accent:

I speak in British accent.

So I have different pronunciations.

Let’s have some examples.

Now let’s take a look at “dialect”:

I speak in British dialect.

So I use different vocabularies and grammars.

SOME EXAMPLES!

Eggplant

Aubergine

Truck

Lorry

Elevator

Lift

Apartment

Flat

I said I may use different grammars as well.

But

how is it possible?

Let’s have a small example:

In the US we say:

Do you have an eraser I can borrow?

And in the answer we may hear

“Yes I do”

or

“No I don’t”.

But in Britain we say:

Have you got a rubber I can borrow?

And in the answer we may hear:

“Yes I have”

“No I haven’t”.

Which English accent do you prefer?

Why?

write your ideas in the comment section.

Take care!

Cheers.
