Languages

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

Greater London Area

We included the Greater London Area because uptalk is considered an innovation here, while high pitch accents are typical for British English.
