It seems unusual to start from scratch with such a thing. With there being several types of accents, why must one feel like they should change theirs? As Text B illustrates, it seems as though it is celebrities in particular that are changing their accents to fit in with ‘showbiz’ and the latest trends or for a movie they will play a part in. Within seconds of meeting someone, we make judgements about who they are just by the way they sound. Attitudes towards accents are based more on social connotations and prejudices surrounding the location or social group associated with that accent than on the sound itself.

Zora Neale Hurston uses the different types of language in the book because it helps bring characters to life, make characters believable, and help the reader think they are part of the story. Hurston uses southern dialect through out the book many times, to represent how people in the south region would talk. In the beginning of the book it also warns you about the language and how Janie is telling her story to Pheoby. At first the language my seem strange to a person, but once you get into the story more it gets easy and more familiar. The way Hurston uses her language also makes you feel that your right in the room with the characters, while there fighting or somebody is dying. In the book, it indicates “ A sound of strife in Jody’s throat,

Both authors has used this because they like to make things interesting and fun to their readers. The text states, “He left it dead, and with its head” (Carroll 1). This shows that there is rhyming in this poem and that the words head and dead rhymes. The text states, “‘My poor Swomee-Swans… why they can’t sing a note! No one can sing who has smog in their throat’” (Dr. Seuss 1). This shows that the words throat and note has the same vowel sounds. In the poems of “Jabberwocky” and “The Lorax” there are word usage, nonsense vocabulary terms, figurative language, and sound

At Morgan State University, the student population is uniquely diverse. Students come from different parts of the United States to gain a degree and to experience all that Morgan has to offer.

These states not only brought a variety of personalities, but as well as a variety of languages. Students from each of these states have a dialect specific to their region in where they live. A case study of dialect on the campus of Morgan State University revealed the phonetic, morphological, and lexical differences of the American English language in the Northern and Southern

Repeated onomatopoeic terms again set the scene. We are told that a hunt is in progress, and it is described in descriptive detail. Anderson does not romanticise the scene as the duckling cowers from a ‘fearfully big dog’.

The top upper portion of Ohio is considered the Lake Plains because it is touching the water. Cleveland is located in this region and makes it ideal for the community garden because it has easy access to the water. The Glaciated Appalachian Plateau is found in the upper right side of Ohio. This area consist mostly of wooded and rugged hills. The bottom right portion of Ohio is the Unglaciated Appalachian Plateau (“Ohio Regions,” n.d.). This region contains winding streams, high hills, and deep valleys. The city of Columbus is located in this region. Here, planting a community garden on high hills will ensure that the garden does not flood. A small area in the bottom left side is the Lexington Plain is also known as the Bluegrass Region. This area contains flat hills and cliffs. The last region is the Till Plains. The Till Plains is located on the left side of Ohio just under the Lake Plains. In this region, the land is fertile and flat (Maag, 2012). Cincinnati is found in the Till Plains. Since the land is both fertile and flat, it makes a great area to plant a community

In the book The Wee Free Men there is this species of tiny blue men, the Nac Mac Feegles, who speak in a very specific dialect. The author Terry Pratchett shows this accent by spelling certain words incorrectly, leaving some letters off and putting an apostrophe instead, and creating slang for certain words. Some of these slang words are crivens, used as an exclamation of surprise and frustration, offski, let’s get out of here, and ship, for sheep. This dialect relates to the idea of language and communities because in the book the Nac Mac Feegle are seen as these unruly and mischievous creatures and this is partially caused by their accent seeming to be uneducated and their lust for violence. The quote “Crivens! Gang awa’ oot o’ here, ye daft

"Ngyes" and "Woomy", dialogue from Inkling boys and girls (respectively), have become well-known memes among the Splatoon fandom, as both of them were heard frequently. "Woomy" may also refer to the Inkling girl, while "Ngyes" refers to the Inkling boy.

Heathland is favoured where climatic conditions are typically hard and dry, particularly in summer, and soils acidic, of low fertility, and often sandy and very free-draining; mires do occur where drainage is poor, but are usually only small in extent. Heaths are dominated by low shrubs, 20 centimetres (7.9 in) to 2 metres (7 feet)

In Anglo-Saxon works of literature, alliterations are used with stresses to organize poems and to create a certain flow. There are certain patterns that can be seen in the lines of poems, often containing four stressed words with three of the word being alliterative and a caesura separating the four stresses words in half. A simple example of this would be in line 94 of “The Wanderer” stating, “Alas bright beaker! Alas burnished warrior!” The audience can almost feel the rhythm of the poem as they read it or hear it told out loud. Having this structure in a poem also works with the language and how it is spoken. It is hard to hear these patterns in translated versions due to other language influences in the English we speak today. When I heard the original version of “The Wanderer” spoken in Old English, the stressed words really stood out to me and the alliterative words were clear. Listening to the mixture of the Old English language and the alliterative and stressed lines I can feel the way the character in the stories feel. In the first few lines of “The Wife’s Lament”

A recent phonological development in Australian English displays a difference between younger and older generations through the High Rising Terminal (HRT) which is a rising intonation contour on declarative clauses. The intonation pattern is considered a distinctive feature of Australian English and shows how speakers carry themselves as a person. HRT is used primarily by the younger demographics in Australia, in particular female speakers and has been criticised often, deeming it as a marker of insecurity. However as researchers now point out,
