English Accents and Dialects

English Accents and Dialects. All languages change over time and vary according to place and social domain, as is perfectly illustrated by these extracts taken from two large audio resources held in the British Library Sound Archive: the Survey of English Dialects and the Millennium Memory Bank. The collection has 681 items (audio and text information) by chronological order. And if you have more time make a search through The Voices Recordings page of BBC.
