The English Language In 24 Accents

Communication can be hindered by many things. This video demonstrate one way in which the language in it is inadvertently crafted, and truly not meant to harm any individual at all. Accents are natural. Although this video is a inappropriate to a certain extent which the presenter realized and apologized for, it is very educative. One of the lessons we learn in this video is that:

  1. People form the same geographic environment communicate effectively among themselves given their accent.
  2. That accent hinders effective communication given people from different geographic environments to a certain extend.
  3. That accent is among a people and not a nation or even country. Given a certain country, there can be a variety of accents as there are individual people.
