Great, thank you for the British rp clips. I cant enough of them to imitate and improve my speech. Keep them coming please

[@teasugarsalt]

Cambridge sounds softer around the edges. It's just a hair mushier than Oxford which feels like it's been starched and ironed. I mean it's all RP but the texture, you see?

[@BritishNativeSpeaker]

Come to think of it, you are right, yes.

[@bennyklabarpan7002]

Oxford. If not for Atkinson I would be indifferent

[@BritishNativeSpeaker]

Interesting

[@robermurpy1000g]

Stephen Hawking - Oxford undergrad. Cambridge PhD. So a nice mix of both.

[@BritishNativeSpeaker]

Right

[@programmer1840]

The implication being that people's accents are affected by the university that they went to? I can't tell any specific characteristics between either.

[@BritishNativeSpeaker]

No it's just to collectively compare the two sides and listen to the eloquent speakers. They are all variants of RP.

[@Eloisestyle]

Oxford!

[@StefanRichardArthur]

Oxford :)

[@BritishNativeSpeaker]

Ok!

[@Stepney101wikiuser]

Cambridge, but its VERY close

[@BritishNativeSpeaker]
