What are the ’Best’ and ’Worst’ British Accents? | Accent Prejudice in the UK

We discuss accentism (accent prejudice) in the UK. It is a real problem. People with certain regional accents face discrimination and it may opportunities at the workplace and elsewhere. Some people still feel the need to change their accents to fit in. In this video we’ll look at different British accents including Scouse, Brummie, Cockney, Geordie, RP and the BBC accent. We’ll look at the ones that people consider the ’best’ and the ’worst’. I wanted to include more accents such as West Country, Belfast, Yorkshire, Mancuniam but I wanted to get the video relatively short so we’ll look at these another time. ..If you are a grammar lover you might be interested in our new range of grammarian merchandise exclusive to LetThemTalkTV Use the code SUNSET to get 10% off only valid until sept. 7th We go deeper #LetThemTalkTV #ZeitgeistBanana #grammarian Listen to the Zeitgeist Banana podcast here.
