accents summary

Accents and dialect summarys



Dialects can a variety could be associated with a  places or region or, rather more surprisingly, it could also be associated with social group—male or female, young or old, and so on. Differences are normal in dialect for example my friendship group will use different dialect then other as the content we watch and hear will be different. However regionally we speak the same dialect however someone from Newcastle will say different phrases due to location. They are large amounts of variation of dialect throughout Britain
 
Accents is how people pronounce word, its where they pronunciation of certain letters and how they sound, this mix courses accents to sound differently. For example  One of the most unique Scouse features is the way the accent make  the letter ‘t.’ sound at the beginning of a word or a stressed syllable, 't' is affricated, becoming something of a 'ts' sound: tree becomes ‘tsree,’ Accents also effected by people around you and where you leave if someone speaks in a fashion you will instantly start picking up their way of sounding letter. Can even happen in friends as we all sound typical Essex however my two best mates dialect and different with little accent differences 
 
These together create variations in how people sound and what they say

End of recording

This conversation takes place on my iPad over FaceTime, this conversation is between three people, me, tom and ben over career mode ending up organising to stay round bens. In this piece there is no dominate voices due to our good relationship as close mates we allow all over this behaviour. The language used is normally as we don’t take offence to swearing due to our relationship. As you can see the way we talk is very normal to us as ben has influenced me to use these word causing tom to use me and ben language, init is a great example of how we speak in this piece as we have shorten “isn’t it” this is elision we use alot of this in our language as it suits our culture but is also easy , gunna is another example of elision  in this conversation. Also words such as “gully” and “piece” Which are used in our convocation is very common as the word gully is a “ new word” , because of our culture we pick up and use words which might seem strange to an adult because their being created/made for our generation and for certain types of people. The word piece in this has a double mean in a way as normally that word would be used in a sentence for example “ can i have a piece of pizza” however due to our friends we use piece in a completely different way as this is now a name of product, this causes the word to be used as a name or used in a question. The word “worker” in this conversation means kitkat however due to how its normally used and understood this word now has a double meaning.  The conversation in this piece flows throughout and the introduction tom makes the conversation more interesting but there is no dominate voice in this piece, we will normally wait for another person to finish speaking only interruptions are used in a joke way or if they still haven’t finished giving information.  Due to me and Ben relationship and understanding of career mode when he uses” big man pogs in cam” i instantly know who hes speaking about as our relationship , culture plus common interest give strange meaning that someone who doesn’t know me Ben or tom in fact will not normally understand.
