In this English listening practice episode of Hear You Go, we’ll explore "Come From Away," a musical that resonates deeply with me. After seeing it again recently, I was inspired to revisit the topic of English accents.
Too often, we think of English has having only two accents: the UK accent or British accent (also called received pronunciation), and the American accent.
But so many people around the world speak English, and they speak English with different accents and a multitude of gorgeous dialects, all of which shape our identity.
I need to emphasize this: accents are not a measure of fluency or intelligence, but a testament to the global diversity of how people speak English.
Join me as I share how "Come From Away" beautifully showcases this diversity, why embracing different English accents is important, and how you can navigate and celebrate the richness of the world’s many English dialects.
Plus, I’ll talk a bit about my upcoming courses that help you appreciate and master the nuances of global English. Ready to dive in? Let’s get started!
Thanks for listening!

However, such factors as socioeconomic change, population loss and out-migration.
