Conversation 3
A: OK, I’ll show you where I found it. Just log on to the BBC website.
B: OK … do you want to get that chair — over there by the bed? Here we are, now what?
A: Click on the link to the Voices project — that’s the project where they asked people to say what they think about the way we speak English in the UK nowadays.
B: Uhuh … This it.
A: Great, now scroll down all the comments until we find the one … Yes, here it is. Have a look at that!
B: Let’s see … Greg writes ‘I moved here from the States a while ago, and I still have trouble understanding all the different British accents and dialects. I live in the West Country, in Bristol (or ‘Bristaw’), and although the accent is charming in many ways, it’s very frustrating not to be able to take part in a conversation because you keep misunderstanding people. Do people deliberately speak with a strong accent to make some kind of point? Also, why do they say things like ‘I were waiting for you’ or ‘You was late’? And why do they use ‘stood’ and ‘sat’ instead of ‘standing’ and ‘sitting’, e.g. ‘I were stood at the counter’ or ‘we was sat on the bus’. It makes it even more confusing.’
A: Well, what do you think of that?
B: Well, he is right about ‘stood’ and ‘sat’, and people mixing up ‘was’ and ‘were’ — I mean, I’ve heard it…
A: Yeah, but people all over the country say that, not just here … it’s, it’s not part of any particular dialect.
B: True, true, in fact I was reading an article in Venue about that the other day, and …
A: But anyway, what annoys me is all this stuff about our ‘charming’ accent, I mean I’m very proud of my accent.
B: Yeah, I know what you mean, it’s part of who we are, it’s part of our identity.
A: Exactly. Why would we speak with an accent ‘deliberately’? And it’s not as if we all speak like Vicky Pollard, is it?
B: ‘No but, yeah but, no but…’ Perhaps we should tell Greg to watch Little Britain and listen to one of her conversations — that would certainly give him some intensive listening practice, wouldn’t it?
A: True. But seriously, shall we write something back to him about, you know, how important accents are and all that?
B: OK, so who’s going to write it?
7 In groups, discuss these questions.
What do people in Russia think about standards of grammar, punctuation and spelling?
What do you think about the effect of email and text messaging on your language?
Has your language changed a lot through the centuries? In what way?
“So where was you when you met him, then?”
