Speeches?

Get familiar with different native English accents. In pairs/groups, go through the list below, taking turns in choosing one (not in this order). Play the sample you chose to your pair/group and see if they recognised which accent it was. How did they guess it? Talk about the different features of the accents you hear and how you feel about them.
