Hello, listeners. Welcome back to Luke's English Podcast, a podcast for learners of English all around the world. How are you doing today? I hope you're doing fine. So this episode is mostly about accents with some stuff also about study routines for learning a language. But mostly it's about accents. And I'm talking today to Patricio from the YouTube channel Patricio Languages. I first noticed Patricio and his work online. Not that long ago, when one of his videos popped into my YouTube recommendations, it was about accents that you can hear in London. And I really enjoyed it. He talks about four distinct London accents. And at this point, I'm just going to ask you, what do you think those accents are?
When you think of London and the English accents that you can hear there from people who were born there, And what accents do you expect those will be? What do you know about London accents? Patricio identified four, and those were the four accents he talked about in that video that I noticed. And I really liked the video. I found it to be a very clear and accurate overview of the various accents that you might hear from people in London. And I checked out some of Patricio's other videos and saw that he's also done episodes about all kinds of different other accents in English and not just regional accents within the UK like, you know, London and Manchester, but also international accents, including ones that I don't often see people talking about and explaining.
such as Caribbean English or English accents from West African nations and many specific forms of American English, like the varieties you might hear in New York, Chicago, Texas, Florida, Los Angeles and California, Philadelphia, Baltimore and plenty of others. So loads of... Interesting content about accents reflecting the wide variety of ways in which English is spoken by different people all around the world. I think this has to be a really, really important thing. And I always want to encourage you, my listeners, to be aware of the varieties of English that you might hear. OK, and instead of having a narrow focus, focusing on one person, particular form of English that you for whatever reason have decided is the only one I think that's not the right idea that you need to be fully aware of the diversity of the English language and you need to embrace that and you need to become more and more familiar with different accents
I also noticed that Patricio is a language learner himself who has learned Spanish and Brazilian Portuguese to a good level. And he's done videos about his study routines for those languages, which I found to be full of interesting and good advice. So I thought that Patricio would be a great person to talk to in an episode of this podcast. I got in touch with him to ask him if he wanted to come on. And thankfully, he said yes. So here it is, right? A conversation with Patricio from Patricio Languages on YouTube, a channel that you should definitely check out. So we're mainly going to talk about, as you've understood, accents that you'll find in London, specifically in London. So accents not just American and British and not just within the UK, not just within England, but specifically within London.
So there's that. Then we have a discussion about issues around accents and learning English and the way that you should see this whole subject. And then we get on to Patricio's study routines for learning Spanish and Portuguese, which I think are very interesting. I think that should be interesting for my listeners to hear a native English speaker talking about his processes for learning another language. It's just interesting to hear someone's approach described in English.
