Thank you very for choosing this particular topic! As a teacher of the English language, I’ve learnt and enjoyed your tactful, yet elaborate explanation. I’m sure many of my students will take equal interest as they want to know how to acquire the British accent. Frankly speaking, I’d be all the more happy if they do also try to pick up your inspiring smile! Finally, I’m truly amazed by the fact that you are a medical student! That tells me how much passion and talent you have for being a language instructor. Likewise, I graduated with a BA degree in Mass Com and was at one time a news reporter, but the classroom has kind of ‘gravitated’ me to its ‘orbit’ - and since day one have been spinning and spinning for 25 years now! Keep shining teacher!

🎯 Key Takeaways for quick navigation: 00:00 🗣️ Focus on word choice and use British versions of words (e.g., "rubbish" instead of "trash"). 02:43 🇬🇧 Pay attention to consonants, enunciate "t" sounds clearly, and avoid glottal stops. 06:48 🗣️ Vowel sounds are crucial; practice the schwa sound, short "o," long "a," and diphthongs. 10:24 🎵 Master the rhythm and intonation by listening to native speakers and mirroring their speech.

I learned my British accent over my childhood/teenage years by watching Top Gear, so much so that it's nearly as natural to speak in a British accent as it is to speak in my natural Northeastern US accent. Over the years, I've learned how to adapt it to pull off decent Irish, Scottish, Australian, New Zealand, and South African accents as well. I find it so fun to surprise people with them!

@@CrackedConker I'm Aussie and a lot of foreigners mistake me as a Brit. We don't all sound like Steve Irwin you know? Apart from our 'o' and occasionally 'a' sounds, as well as intonation and pronunciation differences with words like 'answer,' 'plant,' 'chance' (unless you're from SA), there's a lot of shared features between the RP British and Aussie (specifically Cultivated Aussie) accent.

I love the American and British accent. But the British accent has something that got me mesmerized, super love it.

Tell you the truth, I'm impressed by your pronunciation. Its so beautiful! Your pronunciation sounds much clearer than BBC New to me. Because of education, my English has both American and British influences, but this video gave me some tips to make pronunciation solo British. I will try T and O from now on. (sixty something Japanese)

Really nice guide! Honestly it's also nice to hear someone young speak properly and clearly. Most speak with the "like", "you know" and ending every sentence like its a question which we are so used to from US TV and now by extension, the general populace due to constant exposure. Proper English is such a pleasant thing to the ears.

I'm not a native English speaker, and I learn how to speak English I took classes which the teachers all spoke in American accent but I myself really into British accent and now after 11 years learning English I decided to learn British accent, Thanks for this perfect video❤️

I find that the most extreme and hard to master vowel sound in RP is the thought sound. Bought, walk, talk awesome, daughter, etc. This from a Canadian

@RingsOfSolace Жыл бұрын

Bro I'm American and I agree. It's like ought minus the T or something, it feels hard to pull off.

@petert46 Жыл бұрын

It’s equally hard going the other way. There is a very subtle and short ’uh’ sound in when Canadians say daughter. In RP it’s entirely absent and replaced with a long and very round ‘O’ sound.

Look Lovely Lady Izzy! 😉You've just helped many folks who are or will be imitating the accent to become much much more believable & genuine, as In to speak with seemingly natural enunciations of key letters in key words..Much obliged for your easy to follow lesson!!!🎉Also...Congratulation on your final year of Med School🎉🎉😊

Thank you Izzy! ❤I’ve been struggling with the diphthong O for a long time and wasn’t quite sure how to pronounce it until I watched this video yesterday. The tips you gave us are so clear and helpful!!l I will keep practicing it. I really admire your accent. I was wondering if your parents both speak in this accent? I wish my little baby girl, who’s only 1and a half years old, can speak English like you. Btw I am a native Chinese but also an English teacher here in China!

I have listened to many people with RP accent in youtube and I noticed that although it's the same accent, but it sounds different with different people. Your accent sounds very natural. Maybe I am going to mirror yours.

Thank you Dr Sealey. I'm from the southern part of India. Your video is a wonderful guide. I have been a teacher myself and now am laid back after retirement. But I think I can use your videos to motivate all my younger teachers and also the younger learners in their path. Thanks Soo much or 'muchas gracias' 🎉🎉🎉🎉
