Показать описание
Today Jon and Gideon discuss the RP accent. That's the standard British accent and probably the one you're learning if you're studying British English. What does it mean? Who speaks it? And what's the difference between this and Oxford English or The Queens' English or BBC English. All will be revealed.

Right! Watching Peaky Blinders (brilliant!) I couldn't help myself from noticing (many times out loud... I must be sooo annoying) how interesting were some of the pronunciations I heard!
Thank you for yet another interesting and fresh podcast, guys :-)

Hi Gideon! Would you please tell us which version of RP uses triphthongs? For example the word FLOWER has two radically different pronunciations: one does have the triphthong, while the other doesn't.

Thanks so much Gideon and Jon for another interesting podcast. Standard, posh, BBC accent, the evolution in phonetics..are Siri, Alexa or Google the best example of RP? Stay great. 👍😘💯

Speak The Queen in the same way when she speak to people and when she talk with her family in private ?

A similar situation is here (southern language is standard! 😎). The news readers, much of the TV shows, films use 'STANDARD KANNADA' which I speak, I'm frm Bangalore South-Karnataka in India. Standard doesn't mean POSH instead it is GENERAL that's understandable by many, isn't it? I was wondering if u could mention my place 'Bangalore' in nxt video.
