BBC Voices

Today I found a website archiving the different voices of people from around the British Isles. The website was done by none other than the BBC. It's an interesting compilation of the different dialects. I found Gaelic and the upper Irish dialects to be quite interesting. Many of the colloquial expressions in the clips are difficult sounds to produce since it seems that a lot of the words said are mashed together and not clearly annunciated. A very interesting website, a little old, but still well worth some time browsing the sound. You'll need windows media player or real player installed to listen.

You can visit the website here at BBC Voices.
