Cockney accent

In the previous class, when we were speaking about accents, I mentioned that there is a very special way of pronuncing in some parts of London, the so-called "cockney accent". This accent or this way of speaking consists mainly of two things: rhymes and pronunciation. Have a look at the next videos and let me know your thoughts about it in class! The first video is about a well-known British film in which a teacher "tries" to teach a student how to speak correctly.

You can also have a look at Wikipaedia to get more information about it!http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cockney
