⚠️DISCLAIMER: This video doesn’t promote that you SHOULD have any particular accent. It’s just an education (and possibly entertaining?) video for English learners who wish to learn more about British English accents (specifically Received Pronunciation and Modern Received Pronunciation) and compare it to General American English Pronunciation. I am originally from York (England), so my accent is a mix of Modern RP with some Northern English (Yorkshire) features. ENJOY THE LESSON! 😊

// IMPORTANT
I teach using just one of many accents in the world. Please only learn it if you like it and if you are interested in learning it. I do not believe there is one “correct” accent or manner of pronunciation and I fully encourage EFL/ESL learners to expose themselves to as many varieties of English around the world to become accustomed to the beautiful variations of this world language. I focus mostly on teaching “Modern RP” (I may just say “RP” in my older videos, but to clarify, I do specifically mean “Modern RP”), however, you will hear a lovely little Yorkshire twang to my accent from time to time too. Please LOVE and BE PROUD of your accent. After all, it is part of your identity and makes you unique. 💚

Very nice presentation.
I sometimes use the american pronouncing
"comfortable" " tomato"
In the Rocky Mountain region in the US we often use a glottal stop and get made fun of for it. 😂 I’ve lived in a few states in the region and heard it.
i'm yankee but i lived in manchester 2 1/2 years with an english gf. the "tapped T" also known as the "alveolar tap" is commonly thought of as american but in fact it's very common all throughout the english language even amongst people who don't speak it as their first language. even in the u.k. i heard it all the time which actually surprised me because i didn't expect to hear it very much. even RP speakers use it quite often if you really listen and that is where i would expect to hear it the least. and in places like australia, new zealand and south africa it's just as common as it is in the states.
My big battle against language is the listening,is not easy learn foreign languages,but is possible with good teachers, congratulations.
Me, who isn't coming for learning 💀
How to register and fee Emma
Thank you very much for your work, it is extremly usefull for someone like me who has an acceptable english level and is willing to work on my pronounciation and this RP accent that I'm aiming to get. The way you're detailing all the sound and mouth structure when to say a word is really helpfull because I assume that, when acquiring a language, when we get to the point of actually speaking it, the difficulty remains in the understanding of how the air is expulsed while saying a sentence and from where does the sound came out, wich can be totally different from a language to another. And you've been explaining that very well. So once again, thank you 🙏🏼🌹
Greytt❤
Thanks a lot. this is very useful for me
Okay I think I stay at the American accent.😌
Great 🎉work l really learned lot from r you 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Thanks emma
I spend my whole life learning American English because of its influence and just recently decided to learn the British RP one because surprisingly I find it easier to pronounce as a spanish native speaker. But now, I don't know which one to use as the british one is not as common from where I'm from!
Nice
