What is a public school accent? 🤔

大家知道在英國，public school 不是公立學校，而是私立學校的意思嗎？
（公立學校 的英文是 state school）
今天我就來分享英國 "私立學校" 的特色，還有要如何分辨一個英國人是否有上過私立學校，大家要仔細聽喔，今天的影片也是一個有趣的聽力練習～

本人曾经在一家跨国集团的伦敦总部工作多年，期间有一个伊顿公学毕业的英国年轻人加入了我的部门。我当时任部门经理，最初并不知道这个年轻的下属家事显赫。他的祖上是大名鼎鼎的英国波罗的海交易所的创始人，在殖民地时代是有名的资本家。他本人还有世袭的爵士爵位 （但是他对此却只字未提，直到他离职以后，我们在一个比较posh的杂志上看到他和他新生宝宝的title是Sir, 我们才知道）。 他在职期间，公司的总经理也是个英国人，草根出身，没读过大学，但是能力极强。总经理家里世世代代除了builder就是taxi driver, 只有他一个人做了白领还当了领导。伊顿小帅哥很斯文，讲话很gentle, 听起来比较soft, 从不发脾气，人也比较优雅。总经理则有东伦敦口音，听起来就 rough & tough, 每句话必有swear words, 但是很有幽默感，情商极高，一句话就可以让你笑到前仰后合，或者一句话就会骂到你无地自容，信手拈来。 不知道算不算虎落平阳被犬欺，也不知道是不是出于嫉妒，总经理一直都在给伊顿小帅哥穿小鞋，还经常在背地里嘲讽挖苦他伊顿的背景，尤其是在他工作出错的时候。（虽然小帅哥隐瞒了他的爵士头衔，但是他的伊顿公学背景还是会在他的CV里被总经理看到的）。不仅如此，总经理还会经常在电话里和他的朋友们（也是草根出身）一起交流各自公司雇佣的有私校背景员工犯错的笑柄，甚至还有如何给他们穿小鞋的经验。 我分享这段经历的意思是，如果你是私立名校毕业，那就应该去属于你的上游社会圈子发展，比如从政、经商（不是打工）、明星、收藏家、冒险家什么的。如果你不幸去打工，那最好找个比较势利眼的地方，比如投行、broker之类的。要不然，你的背景可能会成为你的负担。如果你根本就不是富贵家庭出身，只是觉得电影电视里的那些posh口音好听而去模仿的话，那你……死定了

Public schools in the UK are "public" in the sense that any families who could afford the private school fees could send their kids there (among other admission requirements). Government funded schools are generally free of charge but only accept kids coming from the school catchment area and making these schools "non-public". Family with kids moving to a new location tend to pick their residential location based on the availability of reputable schools.

其實很多人沒意識到，台灣也有那種"學校口音"的現象 尤其父母那輩，教育越高，國語口音越不一樣 只是我們從小在教導這件事時，用的是"正音"，而不是"口音"來形容這件事。 我覺得台灣小孩從小被教導要正音這件事 讓我們從小就對不同的口音，單存認為是有著"錯誤""沒正音"的發音，應該被糾正、嘲笑(ex台灣國語) 這種觀念其實廣泛的影響著整個社會，而很多人毫不自覺 尤其是小學詭異的朗讀比賽，會硬把小孩"矯正"成"類外省"口音 很多大人從來沒想過這有多殘忍，甚至還會認為這是在做"正確"且"應該"做的事 而沒想過矯正一個人的母語口音這件事有多不正常

是否該解釋一下為何英國的私校叫‘public school’? 原因是從前除了貴族，所有的英國人不論貧富都只有免費的公立學校可讀。後來新的制度允許有非貴族身分可以付錢就讀的私校，稱之為 public paying school (‘public’ 指的是’非貴族的大眾‘)，也就是今日的 public school. Perhaps an explanation of the name of ‘public school’ would be useful？ That being, in the past, with the exception of the aristocracy, the British people, regardless of their wealth status, went to free state schools. When the new system allowed the opening of private schools for the paying public (i.e., the non-aristocracies) those schools came to be known as ‘public paying schools’, or public schools as we know them today.

[@GoGoNow]

好可愛的教學, 口音確實一直是我沒注意的地方, 平常看電視或聽廣播只會覺得自己英文不行 想想看其實中文口音也蠻多樣的, 我在澳門上班, 和上海大陸同事meeting時候,各種普通話夾雜在一起 有時口音太重常常需要其他人翻譯, 很有趣之前都沒有仔細想過口音問題. 所以英語口音的模仿學習對象也應該是很重要. 如果我們這種學英文的人東拼西湊的發音會不會讓你們英語母語使用者感到困擾.

Suzie, try to use the International Phonetic Alphabet to describe the differences between your pronunciation and those of the public schools. You could use either the broad type or the narrow type, or both of the IPA.

Well… you are making things more complicated

Coming from a native speaker of Mandarin; Your Mandarin is very good,I could understand you very well just by listening. You basically got the tones correct, it's clear without the kind of 'foreigners speaking Mandarin' wierd accent.well done! You must have spent enormous efforts in learning Mandarin (it can be very difficult for non-native speakers because it's totally different from other Indo-European or Latin based languages)👏👏👏🙂 你的华语说得非常好，语调基本也都掌握了，没有很重的‘外国人说华语口音’。你一定是费了很大的心力学习华语吧？汉语或者华语对于非母语者而言应该非常难学因为汉/华语跟印欧语系或拉丁语系的语言完全不同。加油👏👏👏

@@susiewooenglish As a person residing in Hong Kong, I do feel that the posh accent is unnatural and unnecessary. It's like the speaker is trying hard to distinguish themselves from the majority in order to discriminate against them !

"My Fair Lady" was an interesting play about accents and how it influences one's social standing. I studied 2 years in a "grammar school" in Sydney, church run private schools. When I watched Harry Potter movies I felt rather at home with the school's interior scenes, starting from the sandstone buildings.

Well done Susie. Can you elaborate how people speaking in Hokey accent are viewed in the UK?

[@camiheartzacnskating]

I really like this video! I think a lot of ES/FL learners link accents with fluency or social status. And to please their students/viewers, a lot of youtube videos / teachers ignore the sociolinguistic effects of accents and blindly 'correct pronunciation'. All accents are beautiful and should be valued. I really admire that you have put in a reminder of not overcorrecting one's natural accent!

非常感谢你用普通话讲述你对口音的观点，这其中的价值观很宝贵，其实本来应该是很正常的观点，但是现在在一些人当中已经很罕见了。

博主说那些口音的时候太可爱了，连表情也一起模仿了😆 个人一直觉得英国口音没事真的不要乱学，太容易听出来破绽了，反而显得更傻。我目前还没见过一个非英国英语母语的亚洲人真的能依靠后天模仿到让人听不出来的程度。就像影片中说的，一看履历也并没有相关学业背景，就真的很奇怪，还不如忠实自己本来的口音挺好的。

Thank you for sharing the education culture of the Great Britain, Miss Susie. Now I know the differences between private school and state school, one is government-funded, while the other is relying on tuition and endowments. Happy Valentine's Day.🍫❤🌹

[@mrmrabcabc123]

Thanks, Susie. I had heard there are a lot of different accents in the UK. You have given us some examples of the public school accent. I enjoy the speeches of the prominents. Interesting! 😄👍
