Black belt caterpillar wrestler BS: Regional UK Accents (137* d) RE: BS: Regional UK Accents 31 Jul 21


I see that Alex Scott, the Olympics presenter is being castigated for dropping her "g"s, as is Priti Patel, of course.

I suppose the thing is that it does not sound like it is a proper part of the accent.

I know that it jars when I hear it from Priti Patel as the rest of her speech sounds close to RP.
