The first three you will hear are British accents.
The first is a standard accent from the South of England, used by the BBC and most public broadcasts. This one is my accent.
The second is a London accent, spoken by people born and raised in London, usually working class.
The third one is a very high class British accent, spoken by the upper classes. This is the accent the Queen uses, for example.
Then you will hear Southern Irish, Northern Irish, and then Scottish.
Listen carefully and try to hear what the differences are between them.
Amy also does some accents of Europeans speaking English, different kinds of American English, and Australian.
Listen and make a list of the cities and countries you can hear.
this is very qute!

Hello, Quentin. How are you doing?
I took your courses one year ago in Apex and I scored high in TOEFL test.
Thank you.
BTW, some of the accents are actually hard to recognize, for example, the French one.
hi Hebe!
回覆刪除Nice to see you here! Congratulations on your high TOEFL score! It's because you study hard!
your list is correct!
Number 6 is Scottish
Number 20 is Transatlantic Accent, a kind of mix of British and American.
Woohoo! well done!
