I honestly think that I've discovered the secret to instantly sounding more British,
2
and I can't believe that nobody has made a video on this yet.
3
So just so you know,
4
for this video I'm going to be speaking about the modern RP British accent,
5
which is the one that I have.
6
Now let me start by telling you a quick story.
7
So I'm actually in Japan at the moment,
8
and last week I was hanging out in a restaurant or a bar.
9
It was a bar.
10
I was in a bar with a new group of friends and I wanted to know where the bathroom was.
11
So I turned to them and said, where is the bathroom?
12
And instead of them telling me where the bathroom was,
13
they all just started laughing instead and mimicking my accent saying,
14
where is the bathroom?
15
Has anyone seen the bathroom?
16
Darling, I think that the bathroom is down there, darling.
17
Yes.
18
And that's when I realized that I need new friends.
19
No, I'm joking.
20
I realized that the reason why they were imitating me is because in that particular sentence,
21
I sounded so British.
22
And it wasn't even the entire sentence,
23
it was just one word in that sentence,
24
and more specifically, one part of that one word.
25
And the word is bathroom.
26
Bath.
27
Ah.
28
Ah.
29
Yeah, and that sound is the secret.
30
So before I show you how to make this sound,
31
and more importantly, when to make it,
32
this is the phonetic symbol, okay?
33
And it's a very common sound in the modern RP British accent.
34
It appears in words such as bath,
35
path, calm, grass, last, pass, car.
36
Yeah, and making it is actually extremely easy, don't worry.
37
So all you need to do is go like this.
38
R, R.
39
So it's kind of like a long R sound, okay?
40
So just copy me.
41
R. Look at my mouth.
42
R. R.
43
R. R.
44
It's that easy.
45
Car.
46
Repeat after me.
47
Car.
48
Path.
49
Grass.
50
Grass.
51
Bathroom.
52
Easy, right?
53
And there's just something about this R sound that instantly helps you to sound like this sophisticated,
54
modern RP British English gentleman or lady,
55
or whoever it is that you would like to become.
56
Great.
57
So now that you know how to make this sound,
58
you're probably thinking, well, Dylan,
59
when do I make this sound?
60
When do I say R?
61
Or when do I say A?
62
Or when do I say A?
63
What is the rule here?
64
Well, basically, there is no set rule.
65
I'm sorry.
66
I'm sorry, but don't worry,
67
because there are two easy ways that you can start to easily incorporate this sound into your everyday pronunciation.
68
And the first one is by looking at the phonetics.
69
And just as a quick reminder,
70
this is the phonetic symbol for that R sound.
71
So if you didn't know,
72
the phonetic alphabet is basically a way of translating a word,
73
how it is written or spelt,
74
into how it is actually said, okay?
75
And there are several different translator tools that you can use.
76
They're all free.
77
You just type in British English phonetics translator into Google and something will come up, okay?
78
But you know, if you type in a word and you see this symbol here,
79
you are to make this R noise.
80
So this is a really good way of checking if a specific word has this R noise in it.
81
In it.
82
Let's look at an example.
83
Example.
84
Okay, so this is the phonetic spelling for that word.
85
You can clearly see there is the R symbol there,
86
so you know to make that noise.
87
Example.
88
Example.
89
Okay?
90
Or we have father.
91
Father.
92
Once again, you can see this symbol,
93
so you know you are supposed to make the R noise.
94
Father.
95
Father.
96
Let's try a sentence.
97
Just repeat after me, Okay?
98
Well done for that excellent example, father.
99
Now then, let's go to the bathroom.
100
Very good.
101
And as you were saying that,
102
you probably noticed how British you sounded,
103
and it's all because of this R sound.
104
Perfect.
105
Now, the second way that you can start to incorporate this is,
106
well, I think this is actually even better than the first because it is so simple and easy to do.
107
All you need to do is listen out for when other people with the modern RP British accent make this R sound,
108
and then you'll know which words have this sound in them, okay?
109
So let's say, for example,
110
you hear someone say the sentence,
111
oh, the bathroom is rather far away, okay?
112
You might hear this and think to yourself,
113
oh my god, that guy sounds so totally British.
114
British guys are so cute.
115
Oh my god.
116
I don't know why you're suddenly an American white girl,
117
but the point is, you could hear that sentence,
118
acknowledge the fact that it does sound rather British,
119
but you may still be unsure of why it sounds so British,
120
and therefore you don't know how you can imitate it and start sounding more British yourself.
121
But now, when you hear the sentence,
122
the bathroom is rather far away,
123
you know the reason why it sounds so British.
124
It's because because of this R sound, okay?
125
So just listen to the accent you want and pay special attention to the words that have this R sound in them.
126
Maybe write them down, then when you go to say those words,
127
make sure to really stress the R sound,
128
and then soon enough you'll be sounding so British
129
that your friends will start taking the piss out of you when you ask where the bathroom is.
130
Which is what you want for some reason.
131
Anyway, because I love you very much,
132
and I'm of course the best teacher in the universe,
133
I have put together a completely free PDF containing 100 of the most common words that have this R sound in them.
134
And this will honestly teach you 90% of the ones that you actually need to know.

Why did I just do that accent?
144
Why do I love doing that accent so much?
145
Maybe I'm an American wiger.
146
I mean I do have the earring for it.
147
Yes this is a real earring.
148
I don't know what to tell you my um my midlife
149

练习技巧
为了有效提高您的发音，建议您使用英语影子跟读（shadowing）技巧。在观看相关视频时，可以模仿说话者的音调和节奏。具体而言，您可以跟随如下步骤进行练习：
- 慢速模仿：首次观看视频时，放慢速度，仔细聆听每个单词的发音，尤其是“R”音的部分。可以使用一些专门的英语影子跟读网站帮助您逐步掌握这一技巧。
- 重复练习：在听到例句时，尝试跟读。重点关注如何发出“bath”中的“ah”音，多次重复这个音节，直到您能流利地发出类似的声音。
- 观察口型：观察说话者的嘴型和嘴唇移动方式。适当模仿可以帮助您在发音中更加准确，对应出各个单词的发音特征。
- 互动学习：尽量与他人一起练习，通过模拟对话来提升口语流畅度，这个方式亦是影子说话（shadowspeak）的一部分。
通过坚持练习并利用影子跟读的技巧，您将能更自信地与他人用英语交流，提升自己的语言能力，达到良好的沟通效果。让我们开始这段发音训练之旅吧！
什么是跟读法？
跟读法 (Shadowing) 是一种有科学依据的语言学习技巧，最初开发用于专业口译员的培训，并由多语言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。这个方法简单而强大：您在听英语母语原声的同时立即大声重复——就像是一个延迟1-2秒紧跟说话者的影子。与被动听力或语法练习不同，跟读法强迫您的大脑和口腔肌肉同时处理并模仿真实的讲话模式。研究表明它能显着提高发音准确性，语调，节奏，连读，听力理解和口语流利度——使其成为雅思口语备考和真实英语交流最有效的方法之一。
