In this special episode of the Talklin NG Podcast, we explore the fascinating world of accents and their impact on interpersonal communication. We discuss accents—whether they’re good or bad—and how they differ from dialects. We also talk about accent-shaming, the challenges of mastering a second language, and the stigma often attached to accents.

As a bonus, we dive into a trending video in the Nigerian social media space about diction classes and the concept of "wannabeism" in second language acquisition. Join us for an engaging conversation about language, identity, and how we perceive the way people speak!
