That’s interesting. In my country (Japan), sons of famous actors tend to pursue their career in show business, but it’s just a kind of nepotism. Or more precisely, I cannot find Japanese equivalent of “the upper class” of the UK. I found the structure of class society in Britain very unique and difficult to understand.

Not really, U.K. is just like anywhere else, you have actors from all sorts of social classes, in fact, I’d be surprised if even a decent-sized portion of our actors are from the upper class. On one hand you can wonder if they would be because acting isn’t really a good career-choice for the most part, so if you were to dabble in that space some would think you had the financial security to explore acting so perhaps you’re from the middle-upper class. On the other hand, one could argue that wouldn’t be the case because typically, although the upper class do encourage their children to partake in some form of arts at some point, career-wise, they push them in a totally different direction, whereas, working class children don’t really have the same structure and are likely to dabble & choose a career in just about anything.

The difference (and the relation) between “the upper class” and “the upper middle class” in the U.K. is very difficult for me to really understand. I watched Sally Potter's film “Orlando”, by the way, in which Tilda Swinton played the title role. I think she comes from the upper class, doesn’t she? It was a nice film.

To help[ you understand. The accent derives from prep school, often boarding schools that (mostly) boys attend from 7-8 onwards. It is a very SPECIFIC accent in a very specific miliue. Every single one of these speakers went to a prep school--that's where it all starts, for good or ill. If you haven't been to prep school and subsequently go onto to "public" school, you won't sound "posh". --Kevin Whelan

Not all Etonians are from the upper class, the school releases bursaries and scholarships for people who don’t have enough money to pay for the fees but have excellent potential, and some parents work their ass off to send their kids to this school. They do this because Eton has the value and extremely high education standards to be worthy enough to have such a high tuition fee. There are many random boarding schools in the UK that have the same fees or even higher than Eton, but are not as good. Maybe write the trash comments of ‘who will pay this tuition for a school?’ to the schools which are not like Eton.

Back in '89, amidst the hallowed halls of academia, I found myself peddling luggage in the eclectic tapestry of San Francisco. One fine day, a curious customer waltzed in, fixated on a particular backpack. With a sly grin, I remarked, "You've got quite a charming accent." To my surprise, he retorted, "London, my dear friend. I'm the embodiment of eloquence. It's you with the accent conundrum." That fleeting banter was a seismic shift in my worldview. From that point on, as my ventures took me globe-trotting, I'd initiate conversations with, "Greetings, I hail from the Golden State. Can you discern the faint echoes of an accent?" Yet, my quest for linguistic identity hit a snag in Shanghai. A local quipped, "No, it's not a Californian cadence; you're rocking the immigrant intonation." And just like that, I embraced my destiny as an international tycoon with an immigrant's lyrical flair. Life's a journey, and so is the accent that accompanies it!

Some of the accents here (Bear Grylls for example) are not even RP, they’re just “southern”. I tend to find most people who speak with so called “posh upper class” accents are not even especially upper class, or even especially bothered about class. It’s those going around saying things like “nah it’s dem posh geezers innit bruv, you get me?” who have the chip on their shoulders about class.

Frankly, one of the main reasons why it is expensive, it's the price for gatekeeping and preserve the social circle's power of Etonian lol. Like ya know, there are sons of aristocrats/old money, politicians or nouveau riche (mostly billionaires). Even though, some young men don't have an affluence families, they are still creme de la creme who are extraordinary genius enough to get scholarships. So, this is the group of people who could be world leaders or world changers in the future. In order to keep Eton's status, they can't let the commoners in easily. Thus, the price should be very expensive. (if the financial unstable commoners wanna get in, they must have scholarships) By the way, Eton's education is splendid, so yes that's also one of the reasons why, too.
@alicerossi_ap2 жыл бұрын
@@idontknowmyname.9202 It seems to me the least that education is splendid with how much it costs.......so, in short and if I don't get it wrong, more than a school fee it's the purchase price of a status symbol that certainly belongs to the super rich people's sons even if, potentially, mediocre in mind and which is also recognised with limits to the ordinary people's sons with mediocre finances, as long as they have a brilliant mind.......Socrates said: "Virtue doesn't arise from wealth" and Heraclitus said: "Having a great education doesn't mean being smart".....who knows, anyway thanks for the details 😊

You also have to remember not everyone who goes to Eton is smart especially if their parents are rich. Yeah, some rich kids are smart but some are not and are mostly there because their are from affluent families and their parents bought them a place there. Prince Harry did not do so well in school at Eton, the school marked his grade as a pass but did not put the kind of grade he got, I know this because there a documentary I saw on KZfaq and the grades of some children of some of the most affluent families in the UK who went to Eton but did not do so well. People who get into Eton with scholarship you know they are smart because their had to get in by knowledge and not connections. Finally, anyone who went to Eton can most get into the field their studied at because most employers see it at cream of the crop and you only get their if you smart so they super charge, but honestly you can learn all things taught in Eton by yourself or at another school.

They will use an elongated A, so a bath becomes a bart and glas becomes glarss. They use a glotalstop so do not pronounce a T like in GAT Wick. or Law and order which to these people becomes lawrrnorder. Drwaing becomes a drawring.

What isn't made clear here is something all of those featured above understand perfectly: that the "upper class" accent is a learnt almost by osmosis but ONLY from prep school one. Every single one of these guys went to a prep boarding school from age 8, eg. chiefly the Dragon in Oxford and Ludlow in Berkshire (check out their entries on Wikipedia). I went to two prep schools--a boarding school and a day school--and left them with an accent very similar to the above though my family wasn't remotely "posh" or upper class.
