Accents

English has lots of them:

Herself is studying for an English proficiency exam, and the tapes’ and instructors’ Brit accents are giving her some trouble. Somehow, this seemed appropriate.

  1. I’ll watch it at an internet cafe, my connection is bad as usual. But thanks for sharing this. I’m taking the IELTS exam on April 12, but the speaking test is set 3 days before or after the said date. So, as early as April 8 or 9, I’ll be in some hotel being grilled by a British examiner.

  5. Ian - I have a thing for women with accents, so I’ve fallen in love with Amy Walker, age 25. My girlfriend is a little upset.

    Herself - good luck on your exam. I hope it is Amy Walker, age 25. Then you’ll have some practice with her accent(s).
