English accents have been evolving ever since the first people started speaking this very strange language. People in historic films often speak with a modern British accent, and when they don't, people think it's inaccurate. But what did people really sound like during Shakespearean times? Or American Revolution times? Author and linguist Valerie Fridland joins us to discuss all these questions and more!

The so-called “Chicago accent” is one of the city's greatest exports, alongside Italian beef, deep-dish pizza and up-and-coming sketch comedians. Most associate a particular kind of sound to the average Chicagoan. But there are actually many Chicago accents with different origins. And many of them are dying out.  Host - Jon Hansen Guest - Tanera Marshall Want to donate to our non-profit newsroom? CLICK HEREWho we areBlock Club Chicago is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit news organization dedicated to delivering reliable, relevant and nonpartisan coverage of Chicago's diverse neighborhoods. We believe all neighborhoods deserve to be covered in a meaningful way.We amplify positive stories, cover development and local school council meetings and serve as watchdogs in neighborhoods often ostracized by traditional news media.Ground-level coverageOur neighborhood-based reporters don't parachute in once to cover a story. They are in the neighborhoods they cover every day building relationships over time with neighbors. We believe this ground-level approach not only builds community but leads to a more accurate portrayal of a neighborhood.Stories that matter to you — every daySince our launch seven years ago, we've published more than 30,000 stories from the neighborhoods, covered hundreds of community meetings and send daily and neighborhood newsletters to more than 150,000 Chicagoans. We've built this loyalty by proving to folks we are not only covering their neighborhoods, we are a part of them. Some of us have internalized the national media's narrative of a broken Chicago. We aim to change that by celebrating our neighborhoods and chronicling the resilience of the people who fight every day to make Chicago a better place for all.

Ever been told you have an accent — or quietly judged someone else's? We all have one, but most of us know surprisingly little about where they come from or why they persist. Valerie Fridland, a professor of linguistics at the University of Nevada, argues that our accents aren't errors to be corrected — they're living records of migration, identity, and history. Her new book, Why We Talk Funny: The Real Story Behind Our Accents, is a fun, smart, and surprising guide to the sounds that define us. And in the second half of the show, she shares some big ideas from her earlier book, Like, Literally, Dude: Arguing for the Good in Bad English.

Branden Hudson opens Champ Talk by thanking listeners and asking for reviews, likes, subscriptions, and shares, noting he takes no sponsorships. He welcomes guest Max Gimenis, an active UFC heavyweight and owner of Culture Jiu-Jitsu in Gaithersburg, Maryland, and discusses how they met through Dan Strutz and at PBJJF. Max outlines his jiu-jitsu résumé, including world titles across belts, four Pan American black-belt championships, and competing at ADCC, then describes switching to MMA after a disappointing 2021 black-belt worlds final, starting MMA at 29, and signing a four-fight UFC contract after Contender Series plans fell through. Max recounts moving from Brazil to Rio via a judo scholarship, living in a gym, and family support, then talks about learning English, jiu-jitsu gym culture, gi vs no-gi growth, belt promotion/retention, and his goals: return from injury, possibly fight in August, keep improving in MMA, grow his school, and continue PBJJF and his gear brand with support from his partner, brother, and wife.00:00 Welcome and Support00:43 Meet Max Gimenis02:52 Seminar and First Meeting03:45 Jiu Jitsu to MMA05:54 UFC Call Up07:50 Building Gym Culture10:16 Sleeping in Gyms15:12 Dad's Blessing18:41 Burn the Boats Mindset19:54 Accent and Moving to US21:31 Accent Confidence Mindset22:10 Jiu Jitsu Welcomes Immigrants23:53 Gen Z Anxiety Explained24:17 Smartphones Social Media Trap27:29 Fixing Phone Culture29:06 Combat Sports Build Confidence30:10 State of Jiu Jitsu Today32:27 Gi Versus No Gi Growth34:43 Belts Testing Retention37:21 Future Plans UFC And Business40:38 Plugs Thanks And Farewell

Vandaag gaan we het hebben over het beruchte 'Dunglish Complex'. We gaan voorgoed afrekenen met de schaamte rondom ons Nederlandse accent.

Where did the New Zealand accent come from and why does it sound the way it does today? Surprisingly, Auckland, NZ's largest urban centre, has been notably underrepresented in research on the origins of our accent. Past work has been largely South Island and rurally focused, however newly rediscovered historical writings suggest the NZ accent may have developed fastest in the North Island, particularly in Auckland. To tell us more about this we welcomed Dr Brooke Ross who is a Postdoctoral Fellow in the Faculty of Engineering and Design at the University of Auckland. With a background in Linguistics and Speech Science, her interdisciplinary research uses speech technology to understand how and why the New Zealand accent is changing over time. This research used Auckland Libraries Heritage Collections at the corpus of material from which to study the accent. You can access the collections via the Oral History tile here: https://kura.aucklandlibraries.govt.nz/ This is a recording of the Tāmaki Untold talk delivered at the Central City Library on Saturday 23 May 2026.

Beat Migs! Tune in to find out.

Sharath Narayana, CEO and Co-Founder of Sanas, joins SlatorPod to talk about the evolution of real-time speech AI, the rise of accent harmonization, and why voice will become the next major enterprise interface.Sharath traces his journey from engineer to entrepreneur, including the founding of Observe.AI before launching Sanas alongside Stanford researchers focused on solving low-latency speech processing.The CEO explains that Sanas initially operated as a speech lab focused on improving human understanding in conversations. The company developed multiple algorithms covering noise cancellation, speech enhancement, accent harmonization, and language translation before discovering that enterprises were most willing to pay for accent-related technology.Sharath emphasizes that Sanas' accent technology is not designed to erase identity, but to improve clarity and reduce friction in customer interactions. He says enterprises, especially contact centers, adopted the technology to improve first-call experiences and reduce mistrust between agents and customers.He also discusses Sanas' focus on on-device AI infrastructure rather than cloud-only deployments, where running speech AI locally improves latency, protects data sovereignty, and lowers compute costs.Looking ahead, Sharath says Sanas is preparing broader launches for real-time language translation, universal accent translation, and developer SDKs that will allow third parties to build voice applications on top of the Sanas platform.

A crackdown on France's unauthorised raves threatens an outlet for young people. How regional accents in France can hold you back. And the Front Populaire, which laid the foundations of France's welfare state. The French government has vowed to crack down on unauthorised raves, known as "free parties", with a proposed law that would punish organisers with up to six months in prison and hefty fines. While the interior minister claims such gatherings threaten public order, free party fans defend their right to meet and share techno music outside of for-profit venues. Electronic music producer Maelström, who cut his teeth DJing at rave parties in France as a teenager in the late 1990s, looks back at the growth of that counter-culture and how it shaped his own music. Rather than repressing rave culture, he argues the state should help young people make such gatherings safe and sustainable. (Listen @2'15'') France has dozens of regional accents, but you wouldn't know it to listen to broadcasters or politicians – most of whom have learned to speak a standardised form of French shaped in Paris. Sociologist Médéric Gasquet-Cyrus dissects his own Marseille accent and others from around the country, and explains why the impetus to flatten distinctive accents remains strong in France. (Listen @22') The Front Populaire, a broad left-wing coalition elected in May 1936, introduced paid time off and other reforms that continue to shape French society today. Economic historian Nicolas Brisset explains why, 90 years on, it remains a powerful symbol for the French left. (Listen @14'50'') Episode mixed by Cecile Pompeani.

Understanding the accent you didn't know you had.Whether communicating in our mother tongue or practicing a new language, we all speak with an accent. But that's not all, says Valerie Fridland — we hear with an accent as well.Fridland is a professor of sociolinguistics at the University of Nevada, Reno, and author of Why We Talk Funny: The Real Story Behind Our Accents. According to her, we don't just sound a certain way, we hear a certain way too, affecting how we understand others. “We're hearing with an accent — a bias shaped by our own language and experience,” she says. But instead of expecting others' communication to fit our preconceptions, Fridland says to meet people halfway. “If we want to make communication successful, it's not just their job as a speaker, it's my job as a listener.”In this episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, Fridland and host Matt Abrahams discuss how empathetic listening opens the door to understanding. Whether you're communicating in a context of mutual intelligibility or attempting to bridge cultural and linguistic divides, Fridland's insights show how connection is a collaboration — shaped by accents on both sides of the conversation.To listen to the extended Deep Thinks version of this episode, please visit FasterSmarter.io/premium.Episode Reference Links:Valerie FridlandValerie's Book: Why We Talk FunnyEp.91 Um, Like, So: How Filler Words Can Create More Connected, Effective Communication Connect:Premium Signup >>>> Think Fast Talk Smart PremiumEmail Questions & Feedback >>> hello@fastersmarter.ioEpisode Transcripts >>> Think Fast Talk Smart WebsiteNewsletter Signup + English Language Learning >>> FasterSmarter.ioThink Fast Talk Smart >>> LinkedIn, Instagram, YouTubeMatt Abrahams >>> LinkedInChapters:(00:00) - Introduction (02:29) - The Role of Filled Pauses (04:53) - When Fillers Become a Problem (06:15) - Why We Don't Hear Our Own Accent (07:40) - Language Rhythm & Intonation (12:30) - Listening with an Accent (17:28) - The Final Three Questions (23:34) - Conclusion ********Thank you to our sponsors.  These partnerships support the ongoing production of the podcast, allowing us to bring it to you at no cost.Strawberry.me.

Everyone has an accent, even people who don't think they do. That's according to linguist Valerie Fridland, who studies the way American accents have been shaped by centuries of culture and class. In her new book, “Why We Talk Funny”, Fridland shares how different American accents developed, why some are dying off and the way they influence how we see each other and ourselves.

A person's accent can influence the way they are perceived. When it comes to broadcast journalism, the way a person talks is front and center and can open the door to both praise and unsolicited criticism. In our last episode, contributor Arionne Nettles looked at the Southern roots of the Black Chicago accent. It goes back to the Great Migration. Even though many Chicagoans are generations removed from their Southern relatives, some aspects of the accent persist for three main reasons: Black Chicagoans tend to live close to each other, they maintain relationships with family in the South and they like how the accent sounds. Today, we get personal with Nettles, who grew up on Chicago's South Side. She's a journalism professor at Florida A&M University, a culture reporter and author. As a person with the Black Chicago accent, she considered changing the way she spoke to pursue a career in broadcast journalism. She talks about what the accent means to her, and why she ultimately decided not to change it.

How have Black Chicagoans kept so many features of the Southern dialect? To answer starts with the Great Migration.

Whether it's the accent that hints at your hometown, your group, your social status or your ethnicity, the sounds we say reveal a lot about who we are and where we've been – even for those who might think they have no accent at all.

New York kívülről szép. Belülről kemény - Kirilla Lilla ep 311 A MÓKA Podcast új részében őszintén beszél a New York-i életről, social media vs valóság témáról, AI kamu világról, podcastépítésről, szorongásról és arról, milyen ma magyarként Amerikában élni. Ez a magyar podcast epizód azoknak szól, akiket érdekel az amerikai élet valósága, a külföldi élet nehézségei, a női önismeret, az online látszatélet és New York valódi arca.   Kirilla Lilla újra a MÓKA Podcast vendége. Mi történt vele azóta, hogy legutóbb beszélgettünk? Milyen ma fiatal nőként New Yorkban élni, dolgozni, tartalmat gyártani, randizni, és közben megőrizni önmagadat egy olyan világban, ahol mindenki mutat valamit, de kevesen beszélnek arról, mi van a kép mögött?   Ebben a második beszélgetésben Lilla mesél az új munkájáról, a saját podcastjéről, a Valid with an Accent fejlődéséről, virális pillanatokról, amerikai médiamegjelenésekről, és arról is, hogy amit a social mediában látunk, abból mennyi a valóság és mennyi a kirakat. Szóba kerül az is, hogyan változik az ember, amikor már nem csak túlélni akar egy városban, hanem tudatosan elkezdi felépíteni önmagát.   Ez a rész különösen érdekes lehet a magyar és európai nézőknek, mert New York kívülről sokszor álomnak tűnik. Fények, szabadság, lehetőségek, önmegvalósítás. De mi az ára annak, hogy valaki fiatalon, egyedül, háttér nélkül próbál boldogulni egy ilyen városban? Mennyi rohanás, szorongás, önfegyelem és tudatosság kell ahhoz, hogy valaki ne csak fennmaradjon, hanem valóban haladjon is előre?   Beszélünk arról is, hogyan torzítja el a social media az emberek életéről alkotott képet, és hogy ma már az AI segítségével bárki legyárthat magának egy teljesen kamu online életet. Ez az epizód ezért nemcsak személyes történet, hanem egy nagyon aktuális lenyomata annak a világnak is, amiben élünk.   Lilla őszintén mesél journalingról, célkitűzésről, önépítésről, kapcsolatokról, prioritásokról, podcastépítésről, inspiráló vendégekről, kudarcokról és pofára esésekről. Mert ahogy ebben a részben is elhangzik, sokszor épp ezek tanítanak meg a legtöbbre.   A MÓKA Podcast célja mindig is az volt, hogy megmutassa a magyarok valódi történeteit Amerikában, őszintén és emberközelből. Ez a rész pontosan ilyen. Nem képeslap New Yorkról, hanem egy élő beszélgetés arról, milyen ma nőként, magyarként, dolgozó emberként és tartalomgyártóként jelen lenni Amerikában.   Témák az epizódban:   * Kirilla Lilla visszatérése * New York-i élet nőként és magyarként * social media vs valóság * AI és a kamu online élet * virális pillanatok és amerikai média * Valid with an Accent podcast * journaling, önépítés, célkitűzés * randizás, kapcsolatok, prioritások * New York mentális ára * kudarcok, pofára esések, újrakezdések * magyar szemmel Amerika valósága   Ha érdekel az igazi New York a képek mögött, és szereted az őszinte magyar podcast beszélgetéseket Amerikáról, ezt a részt neked ajánljuk.   Írd meg kommentben: Szerinted mennyire hamis képet mutat ma a social media az emberek életéről? És te tudnál hosszú távon New Yorkban élni?
