Our project focuses on Standard Southern British English (SSBE) and Standard Greek. The languages were chosen because they present differences of interest within comparable phenomena across, allowing for cross-linguistic study and comparison
Southern Standard British English (SSBE)
We included the Greater London Area because uptalk is considered an innovation here, while high pitch accents are typical for British English.
​
Standard Greek (as spoken in Athens)
Athenian is the standard variety of Greek. We are investigating high accents and questions, which will be compared to the same phenomena in Corfu.
