Description

Our accents are great! They represent our origins, our languages, our community, and our identity. But too many of us feel like we can’t speak with our authentic voice. Accent prejudice is real.

Linguist and author Dr Rob Drummond joins us to explain all about accent and accentism. He’s the author of a new book You’re All Talk: Why You Are What You Speak.

And Dr Robbie Love is joining us with his research about how the word fuck is changing in the speech of British teens. Spicy!
