[Ads-l] podcast with Patricia Cukor-Avila

[Paul Meier]

If, like me, you're fascinated with the historical development of accents, you will love my latest In a Manner of Speaking podcast, which examines the development of African-American English. My guest, Patricia Cukor-Avila, president of the American Dialect Society, provides illuminating insights into the speech of Black Americans.

In other news, my new Zoom masterclasses are starting in just three weeks, and I still have spots left! I'm offering four new courses in June and July, limited to just eight participants each, so expect plenty of individual attention. Topics include dialects of the British Isles and Ireland; Received Pronunciation, Estuary, Cockney, and Transatlantic; coaching accent modification; and acting in a foreign-language accent.
