Why so many British people are taking elocution lessons?
NOW that Britains public-school elite is in retreat, is the way it talks disappearing too? For years social levellers have been celebrating the decline of Received Pronunciation (RP), the clipped, cut-glass way of talking often known as Oxford, or BBC, English. Once the confident accent of the ruling class, it is now, supposedly, the dying dialect of an enfeebled tribe, attracting suspicion and contempt rather than deference and respect.
But its not as simple as that. Certainly, RP, as it once was, no longer rules. The BBC goes out of its way to use regional accents; in Hollywood, a posh British accent is a cliché for brutality, arrogance and stupidity. Consumers no longer see it as a sign of trustworthiness and authority. Peter Trudgill, a leading socio-linguist, says that some call-centres prefer regional accents to RP because of the negative reactions RP arouses. Although there is little solid research, linguists think that RP speakers may have fallen from 5% of the population to less than 3%. “There may well be more RP speakers abroad than here,” says David Crystal, the countrys best-known authority on the English language.
And RP has evolved. Todays version is closer to accents that once would have been termed plebeian. The Queen Mother spoke differently from the way her daughter talks. Princess Dianas speech was different again—closer to the generalised southern accent sometimes called “Estuary English”. Modern RP includes, for example, some glottal stops (an illustration is “Gatwick” pronounced without the “t”).
Yet annoyingly for the egalitarians who believe that all kinds of accent are equally beautiful and useful—there is a large and growing demand for “better” speech. Ann Jones, the general secretary of the Society of Teachers of Speech and Drama, estimates that more than 10,000 people take elocution lessons every year. “In the last five or six years its really taken off,” she says. Her members (who call themselves speech trainers, rather than elocution teachers, a term regarded as very dated) have as much work they want. The director of the London Language and Drama School, Sarah Mann, says that all speech training courses are fully subscribed.
This is not a reprise of Shaws “Pygmalion”. Most people signing up for lessons are not trying to learn classic RP, but to make their verbal skills match their other business tools—such as the visuals on a slide presentation. A typical aim is to soften or dilute regional accents to the point that they will be readily understood by people from elsewhere. Ms Mann says that it can take as little as six one-hour lessons to help a motivated student to replace glottal stops with “t”s in words like “water”, and to insert a missing “l” into words such as “old”, “cold” and “gold”.
She does not necessarily try to eliminate regional accents, she insists, so long as the speaker learns to eliminate “lazy” speech such as slurring, and annoying verbal tics, such as “know what I mean”, “sort of”, or “like”. “You can get away with even quite a marked accent if you are an interesting enough speaker, with pitch and pace and pause in your delivery,” she says.
There is a strong business case for all this. A survey of company directors (see chart) by the Aziz Corporation, which calls itself the countrys leading independent spoken communications consultancy, says that 31% reckon that a strong regional accent is a disadvantage in business.
But why the growth in demand? One reason is globalisation. Foreigners typically learn RP, or something like it, and are often mystified by Britains stronger regional dialects. Dealing with them means speaking some sort of standard English.
A second reason is the growing emphasis on better presentation skills in business. Managers who are willing to lavish money on public relations, speech writers, coaches and so on are more likely to want their Ps and Qs fixed too.
A third reason is the erosion of boundaries within companies. Jayne Comins, a speech coach in London, notices a big increase in clients with a computing background. “Talkings not what they are really about,” she says. “A lot of men in IT didnt start out wanting a job working with people, but when they become successful they often have to talk at board meetings, give presentations and sell their product.”

Мы хотим поговорить правильно. (КАК И МЫ). Почему так много британцев брать уроки дикции? Теперь, когда британская элита государственной школы находится в отступлении, то, как она говорит, тоже исчезает? В течение многих лет социальные выравниватели празднуют упадок полученного произношения (RP), обрезанный, резаный способ разговора, часто известный как Оксфорд, или BBC, английский. Когда-то уверенный акцент правящего класса, это теперь, предположительно, умирающий диалект раздираемого племени, вызывающий подозрение и презрение, а не уважение и уважение. Но это не так просто. Конечно, RP, как это когда-то было, больше не правил. BBC изо всех сил пытается использовать региональные акценты; в Голливуде шикарный британский акцент-это клише для жестокости, высокомерия и глупости. Потребители больше не видят в этом признака надежности и авторитета. Питер вопросы по делегированию доменов, ведущий социально-лингвист, говорит, что некоторые колл-центры предпочитают региональные акценты в РП из-за негативной реакции РП вызывает. Хотя существует мало надежных исследований, лингвисты думают, что РП колонки могут упасть до 5% населения до менее 3%. ” За границей может быть больше носителей RP, чем здесь", говорит Дэвид Кристал, самый известный авторитет страны на английском языке. И RP эволюционировал. Сегодняшняя версия ближе к акцентам, которые когда-то назывались плебей. Королева-мать говорила иначе, чем говорила ее дочь. Речь принцессы Дианы снова отличалась-ближе к обобщенному Южному акценту, иногда называемому "устьем английским". Современный RP включает, например, некоторые глоттальные остановки (иллюстрация “Гатвик” произносится без “т”). Все же досадно для эгалитаристов, которые считают, что всевозможные акценты одинаково красивы и полезны—существует большой и растущий спрос на “лучшую” речь. Энн Джонс, генеральный секретарь общества преподавателей речи и драмы, оценивает, что больше чем 10,000 человек брать уроки дикции каждый год. "За последние пять или шесть лет он действительно снят", говорит она. Ее члены (которые называют себя инструкторами по речевым вопросам, а не учителями по elocution, термин, который считается очень устаревшим) имеют столько работы, сколько хотят. Директор Лондонской школы языка и драмы Сара Манн говорит, что все курсы обучения речи полностью подписаны. Это не повторение "Пигмалиона" шоу. Большинство людей, подписывающихся на уроки, не пытаются изучить классический RP, но сделать свои вербальные навыки соответствующими другим бизнес—инструментам, таким как визуальные эффекты на слайд-презентации. Типичная цель состоит в том, чтобы смягчить или разбавить региональные акценты до такой степени, что они будут легко поняты людьми из других мест. Мс Манн говорит, что это может занять всего лишь шесть часовых уроков, чтобы помочь мотивированным студентом заменить глоттальные остановки с “т”в таких словах, как “вода”, и вставить недостающие “л” в словах, таких как “старый”, “холодный” и “золото”.
Она не обязательно пытается устранить региональные акценты, она настаивает, пока оратор учится устранять "ленивые" речи, такие как растекание, и раздражающие словесные тики, такие как “знать, что я имею в виду”, “своего рода” или “нравится”. “Вы можете уйти даже с довольно заметным акцентом, если вы достаточно интересный динамик, с шагом и шагом и паузой в доставке”, говорит она. Есть веские основания для всего этого. Опрос директоров компаний (см. Диаграмму), проведенный Aziz Corporation, которая называет себя ведущим независимым консультантом по коммуникациям в стране, говорит, что 31% считают, что сильный региональный акцент является недостатком в бизнесе. Но почему рост спроса? Одна из причин-глобализация. Иностранцы обычно изучают RP или что-то в этом роде и часто озадачены более сильными региональными диалектами Великобритании. Общаться с ними означает говорить на каком-то стандартном английском языке. Вторая причина - растущий акцент на лучшие навыки презентации в бизнесе. Менеджеры, которые готовы тратить деньги на связи с общественностью, речевые писатели, тренеры и так далее, скорее всего, захотят, чтобы их Ps и Qs были исправлены. Третья причина-размывание границ внутри компаний. Джейн Коминс, тренер по речи в Лондоне, замечает большой рост клиентов с вычислительным опытом. “Говорить не о чем идет речь”, говорит она. "Многие мужчины в нем не начинали хотеть работу с людьми, но когда они становятся успешными, им часто приходится говорить на заседаниях Совета, давать презентации и продавать свой продукт. ”
