Ranking 10 British / UK accents from easiest to most difficult. I sent 10 clips of celebrities with distinctive English accents to my students in a survey. Here are the results! FREE PDF: https://bit.ly/10AccentsPDF NORDVPN: https://nordvpn.com/lucy - 2-year plan with 73% off + 4 months for free. (AD)
Disclaimer: This survey was for entertainment purposes only. The survey was not at all scientific, and had many variables, as discussed in the video. I really enjoyed making this video and would love to do a more thorough and fair survey in the future. If you are a linguist and would like to help out/offer some advice - I would love to hear from you! Please message me on [email protected] with the subject line 'LINGUIST123' (so that I can filter through and find you)

Do you want to improve your pronunciation? I have launched my British English (Modern RP) pronunciation course! I’ll train you to read phonetic transcriptions, and produce each sound that comprises modern received pronunciation. I’ll also teach you how to implement the correct use of intonation, stress, rhythm, connected speech, and much more. We’ll compare similar sounds, and look at tricky topics like the glottal stop and the dark L.
Technically, I need to mark this as an AD even though it is my own company so - AD :)
