[quote=Anonymous]There are working class and regional accents, which are also primarily working to lower middle class. But the professional classes nationally have the same accent and it's been like that for a long time. It's very much based on clear pronouncing and grammar. The only "posh" accents I can think of would be old money people from a certain generation, either a clipped accent in the northeast/new England or a variant of the drawl in the coastal south. I remember a few from my childhood but they have largely died out. [/quote]
