程度の副詞

Good evening, it's very nice to be here...that sort of thing.

I'm here to do the received pronunciation, the RP posh accent.

I believe you must be mistaken, I'm here to do the RP accent.

Well, I suppose I'll represent the more modern RP,

basically people who wish to show a level of intelligence or class in their speech

And I suppose you represent the more archaic, old-fashioned RP?

Old-fashioned!? I shall wash your mouth up with soap and water!

Perhaps you should begin by telling them what RP is and is not.

Okay, well, RP goes by many different names:

BBC news reporters were expected to speak in a similiar style to the Queen.

We interrupt this program to bring you a special news bulletin.

The Germans have bombarded British shores from the air.

Our American allies are here to lend a helping hand.

Whereas today's BBC represents a more realistic range of British accents.

Today, modern RP isn't exactly a very specific way of speaking.

They're all on the spectrum of RP but the way they speak isn't exactly identical to one another.

The main idea of RP today is using good enunciation,

and just generally using the correct grammar.

Unlike those bloody Kardashians who really leave a great deal to be desired in that department,

they may have rather splendid rear ends...

In fact, I bet they were kept behind after school, ay?

We'll show you the differences between the more modern RP and the older-fashioned upper RP.

Modern RP is more just about proper enunciation,

However, when there's a T sound at the end of the word,

In regular RP, we use something called "R linking" or "R joining."

India ends with an "A" sound, the next word begins with an "A" sound,

so in regular RP we join them with an "R."

One important thing to note is RP is non-rhotic,

which means we don't pronunce the "R" sound.

Americans might pronounce it "hard", with an "R" sound.

One important thing to remember is in these words that "A" is pronounced as an /a:/.

Whereas in these words, the "A" sound is pronounced like an /æ/.

The sounds in more common English accents come in more further back in the mouth,

as Jason Statham pointed out in his video.

Whereas in RP and upper RP, the sounds come from further forward in the mouth.

the higher level the RP, the posher the accent,

the further forward in the mouth is where the sound would come from.

In upper RP, the jaw will move as little as possible.
