    When should you stop using the glottal stop? Learn how to put the "t" back in your pronunciation in my new video: ruclips.net/video/GSzlXjA2SYk/видео.html

    Fanks a lo'
    Wiv respecto the "th" sound, we have got two types
    1. the voiced, such as in mo"th"er, and this to be turned to V sound, so mother becomes mava.
    2. the unvoiced "th", such as in no"th"ing, and this to be turned to F sound, so nothing becomes nofing.
    A bonus tips : the "R" is non rhotic in Cockney as well as the RP. Thus, mother was turned to mava as we don't pronounce the "R" at the end.
    Cheers,
    Ahmad,

    I'm a Brazilian girl who loves the English language and the British accent (I was a little kid when I first watched the 1968 film Oliver Twist and immediately fell in love with their accent). I'm currently an English student at my local University and I'm extremely glad I found this channel. Thank you!!!

      oh, hi! I am from Russia, Moscow. Where are you from exactly in Brazil? From which city I mean? Have you already finished your study in University? What the specialization have you got/what is your profession? You know, I adore brazilian variant of portugues language:). And don`t like portugues people speak in Portugal. Adore your brazilian movies, novelas, music (Ivete Sangalo, Rita Lee, Marilia Mendonca, Pitty and etc.), like your country, although I've never been in Brazil yet). So, do you also like british accent?) If you want and if you have time, we could speak with you about anything you want, I would be glad to have conversation with you. So, let me know if you want to communicate with me.

    Most of us, Brazilians, speak exactly like this, meanly in numbers 1, 3, 4 and 5, so we weren't speak it wrong, we were speaking it with cockney accent.😂

    Cockney was from East London, 40 years ago when I first went to work, you could tell which part of London they were from, a South London accent was very distinctly different from a cockney accent. It's a dying accent in east London, due to the fact that there are so many people from different ethnic backgrounds. You have a Highbrid West Essex accent, the sounds Mockney, like Jamie Oliver.

    • @Haberdashery22
      @Haberdashery22 5 месяцев назад +1

      You are quite right. True cockney has all but died. Wider cockney is not cockney at all, it is just lazy, sloppy south-east English. Even that has been replaced over the last thirty years by the more grating estuary accent that we now have in abundance in "Sarf Essix".
      By the way, this teacher does not have an RP accent! She is a very nice lady but her vowels are not rounded enough for RP. My guess is that she's from Northampton or Leicester?

    As a Cockney, I really enjoyed this! Made me laugh in a few places, too :D Anuva fing we do, whcih ain't grammatically correct, is say 'done' instead of did or have done. E.g. I done it. We also say, ee' ya, instead of here you are - as in, "'Ee' y'a', mate" insteada "Here you are, mate". An' there's anuva one, cum t' fink of it, lol - we just put a on the end of a word, e.g. insteada - not instead of... I could probably think of a lot more; those are just the ones that instantly sprang to mind... :) X
