Accents - Part 5
In England, I have noticed that there’s a speech pattern among some adults and children that goes like this:
“The first thing you do is make a table of values, yeah? Then you choose values for x, yeah? You substitute the x-values and solve for y, yeah?”
I thought it a bit odd until I realized I did the same thing sometimes:
“I’m new here, right? And in America, the schools are different, right? So, the Head thought it would be good for me to observe at a different school for a few days. Make sense?”
So I suppose that this title should really be ‘Accents – Part Five, Yeah?.’
