Nice communication tips for executives.

I'm not at all trained in anything accents from a technical perspective (i wish!), but i love cultures and ethnicities and languages. (Bilingual: Spanish (European accent mostly) and English (American accent). That said, I've often played around with various English, Scottish, Irish and Australian accents, just for fun. When i went to England and Scotland for 10 days, i felt compelled to stop myself from what i would describe as a natural inclination to adopt the accent out of fear of "faking it" or worse, making fun of anyone. Anyway, that was years ago. Fast-forward to present day, also many years after being clinically diagnosed with ADHD, and a number of ADHD content videos have brought to light that there may be a correlation between ADHD and the "ability" or pension to code-switch naturally and quite convincingly between accents the way Gillian Anderson does. So, as a true ADHD person would do, I've rambled all over the place to get to a single question COMPLETELY unrelated to your content: i wonder if Gillian Anderson is ADHD? Lol

Missed your videos!

I go from a California accent to a mild southern accent all the time. I live in the south so I’ve sort of picked it up. I grew up military so I interacted with people from all over the world. And I’m partial to British television so I often find myself easily speaking with a slight British accent at times. And when I speak Spanish, I’ve been told my pronunciations are pretty close to a native speaker (had a great deal of Latino friends growing up). I think some of us just naturally pick up what’s around us.

i can't pronounce The word Honour in Rp 😂

I thought she was terrible as bellatrix she sounds like she has a forced accent. In fact I can’t stand her in much of anything

It’s strange how celebrities choosing to talk the way the want is applauded , almost revered…but if a civilian does the same we are made fun of or called egotistical or full of one self … lol (yes the status of celebrities is ridiculously set to a messiah-like it is shameful)….

The exercise helped me reduce my accent a lot I remember from the beginning I felt my nervous system and breath were restricted when I speaking After 2 years of training, my muscles, nervous and breath systems are getting used to it, everything comes out more naturally than the first day

😊😮😮😮

Love it, thanks Molly, your content is pure gold

Thank you very much! After living in the UK for several years, I gradually dropped the "r"s. I found RP accent is fascinating.

Don’t even mention the west coast that’s not even American

Shot chick❤😊, you where the first person i picked, from the shorts, when i looked up people to show me how to do some mindful breathing techniques, to improve welling as i have did this before, ty.

Thanks , really appreciate your effort.

Thank you so much, you too have a fantastic week!

Cheers

Howdy!

Very interesting! 0:11 “ex-ited” ; 3:29 “no-ice” instead of “notice” or 3:44 “bo-um teeth”. I wonder when dropping “t”s became more commonplace with the RP accent. To my ears this sounds like a strange mix of traditional London/Cockney accent mixed into RP. I notice a lot of young people do this these days.

Thank you so much, you're explaining everything very well!

I was wondering if you know which type of accent Lady Phoebe from the show ‘you’ has. ❤

It's wonderful, Molly, thanks a lot. I think one of the most difficult words that there is in English, with shwa challenge, is 'comfortable'. Well, there is a table in it. so many people say [komfo(r)fteibl], with a nice stress on the last or second last syllable. I even remember my English teacher at the secondary school pronouncing like that. 😉

He's great, I love his energy.

Hey, Molly. I truly appreciate your work. You are good at it. I'm a pronunciation coach, with the British RP Accent. I live and come from Nigeria. Your videos are really topnotch.

I am originally from Delhi, India and moved to London two years ago. My accent is now a weird blend of a refined north Indian and West London (is that even a thing?) influenced by what I hear from my friends and coworkers. I want to refine it further and bring it as close as possible to RP; and watching this video is the first step I have taken in this direction. Just wanted to say thanks. You have got a new subscriber.

Hey Everyone - Thank you for all your questions and comments! This was one of my earliest videos so I do have more up to date and (I think) better videos on the accent- You can find it on the accent playlist 😀

Genuine video!!

You don't need to roll the 'r' for RP, but if you tap it you're going to get along a lot better.

They are not using RP in that Bridgerton clip. That is SSBE.

Hey there Molly!

What the hell lol

I can't wrap my brain around this one.

You closed your video by asking whom you would like to be broken down next, vocally speaking. May I suggest Gyles Brandreth?

I wish I lived in London. Unfortunately I'm in Edinburgh. 😢

Hello Molly. I just found and subscibed to you today. I was born in Folkestone, raised in Lingfield and Maidstone and then in a village on the Kent/Sussex border. My Grandparents spoke upper RP and my Mother RP. I did but having moved to Tennessee 12yrs ago, I am in fear my accent is going as new aquaintances from the Sothern part of the USA say I'm Australian when we're introduced. Back in 2012 they thought I really had a "Royall' accent how do I keep my Queen's English accent? Are there vocal exercises for this?

Hi, does anyone know any famous profiles that use the modern RP accent that I could listen to?

Great video Molly, I did watch till the end. The employee feedback example contains 17 and 21 words. I wish the examples followed the rules it is teaching. (gold star, wish, 3 short sentences, clear, but still feels a bit harsh. Def does not make me seem friendly. More pedantic really)

Appreciate these communication videos

Hi, I'd like to say that your channel is so underrated that I cannot believe it. I learn so much from you, 100 times more than from other english teaching channels.You deserve at least 100K + subscribers. I hope you will get there in no time. I keep my fingers crossed. You are amazing. I hope you'll have a great day. All the best❤❤❤

I am trying to get RP accent in Australia, for the language environment where I stay that's quite difficult.

😊👍

Thank you for these great tips. 6. I love the ideas and can't wait to implement them. 10. I also like the idea of empathetic listening at the end. 11. 3 sentences.

Hey there!
