accents

Accents are variations in the way people pronounce words, influenced by their geographic region, social background, or cultural identity. They reflect differences in pronunciation, intonation, and rhythm, and can reveal where a person is from or their community. Accents develop over time through exposure to local speech patterns and can be different even among speakers of the same language. They are a natural part of language diversity, showcasing the rich tapestry of linguistic variation across different groups.
