American Dialects
As we discussed in class, people in North America do not all speak the same type of English. The varieties and accents can be so different, that it is sometimes difficult even for a native speaker to understand people from different regions! If you would like to practice listening to different types of "North American English", the button below will lead you to a wonderful website full of many audio files of real speakers from different regions.
