Accent Bias and Idiolects (w/Kevin)

In this episode, I sit down with my friend Kevin to talk about accents, identity, and the assumptions we make about people when we hear them speak. I start with a little guessing game about Kevin’s accent, which turns out to be more complicated than expected. From there we dive into how our personal way of speaking—our idiolect—develops and why everyone has an accent.Most people watch videos on pronunciation and accent, but they make the mistake of not getting feedback, and as a result, they don’t even know which mistakes they’re still making!
