In this task, you’ll watch short clips from various movies and TV shows. Your goal is to identify the accents spoken by the characters in each scene. Pay close attention to their pronunciation and intonation to find clues about the accent.

To help you get started, you’ll first hear the same sentence spoken in seven different accents. Listen carefully to each version to familiarize yourself with the differences. You can find the ‘Samples’ button below.

The sentence you’ll hear is:

"It was a calm afternoon, and the sky was clear as we walked along the path by the water."
