The Untold Story of East-Midlands English Accents

@davehuxtablelanguagesAbout
I have a lifelong passion for languages, pronunciation, accents - you name it. The purpose of this channel is to share that passion in a fun, entertaining and informative way. I would love for more people to know how truly amazing human languages are and encourage people to learn them and learn more about them. I love to promote languages with fewer speakers, especially those that have been oppressed. I hate to hear that people were told not to speak their language and that it doesn't have value.

Video Description
Most videos about the accents of England tend to miss out the East Midlands. I know mine did! So I've done some research about what makes East Midlands speech stand out from neighbouring regions. I look at the phonetics of the accents, focussing on Derby and Nottingham in particular. I found some fun features that could lead to some interesting misunderstandings and met Ivar the Boneless on the way. That didn't end well for Ivar.
