When I began
studying this chapter I was able to learn how English is pronounced with the
accent that is used in England. “The pronunciation that you are likely to hear
from most Americans does sound noticeably different from BBC pronounciation”.For
this reason it is really important to notice the difference between the
American and British pronunciation because in that way we will be able to avoid
misunderstandings just at the moment to communicate with others. On the other
hand, there was something that really got my attention that was that the accent
can be pronounced differently according to the geographical places from
different social clases, of different ages and different educational
background. Besides, the term accent is generally confused with the term
dialect; however, the word dialect is the variation of a language, not only in
pronunciation, but also in the use of vocabulary, grammar and word order.
