33 - Where do American Accents Come From?


Listen Later

In this episode of The Sharing English Podcast, we explore why there is no single “standard” American accent. You’ll learn how history, immigration, and geography shaped different accents across the United States, from the Midwest and the South to major cities and isolated regions. We also discuss African American English (AAVE), accents in movies and television, and why no accent is more correct than another. Clear, calm, and accessible listening for English learners.
