Hi lovely people!!

I am so excited to show you today’s video! An introduction to the Cockney accent and dialect. This is part of a series of many videos about all the different British accents that can be found across the U.K! So keep your eyes open for that!

This will hopefully shed some light on why you find it difficult to understand natives, and why you struggle to understand series and films. There is a lot of diversity in accents coming from the U.K and it’s important to have an understanding of all of them in order to complete your studies and research when learning English.

Hopefully you’ll enjoy my attempts at doing the accent!

I hope you enjoy my video :)

Let me know in the comments what you think?

Thanks for watching
