We have in English something called - wait for it - "accents". People with different accents have some different pronunciations. Many people, even right here on Mudcat, seem to feel that their accent is superior to other accents. Some even seem to feel that having the superior accent makes them superior human beings. They wax indignant at the realization that some of those with inferior accents are not even making an effort to speak like them, to 'improve themselves', as it were. Their opinion of their inferiors slips even lower.

And there may even be those who feel that the collective accents of their nation(s) are superior to those of other nations ....
