Explanation:
Eliza Doolittle is a "flower girl" who lives in poverty in a poor area of London.
She is a typical working class woman who would never find access to London's high society. Her dialect puts her right into the category of the lower class.
Eliza's pronunciation of words and phrases are almost unintelligible to anyone who is not familiar with the particular London accent.
Also she is not an attractive woman. Her age is assumed between eighteen or twenty but hardly older.
Most of the time she wears a little sailor hat of black straw that has long been exposed to the dust and soot of London and has seldom, if ever, been brushed. Her shoddy black coat reaches nearly to her knees and is shaped to her waist. She wears a brown skirt with a coarse apron. Her boots are very old and worn out. She is no doubt as clean as she can afford to be, but compared to 'ladies' she is very dirty.
Her hair has a musty colour and can hardly be natural. It needs a washing rather badly and her teeth need the service of a dentist.
On the one side she seems not have any certain personality or unique appearance. But looking at her enormous temper and her unabashedly talking to the people she sells her flowers to she is given more character as any insignificant little girl somewhere in the streets of London. Added to those aspects she also is a very hysterical, wild and sensible person.
Before Eliza meets Higgins she doesn't really see a need for a change. She has been satisfied with as a poor girl with selling flowers.
But when Higgins drops into her life with the possibility to change it she doesn't refuse his "bet" with Pickering, because of the prospect of her longest dream coming true, owning her own flower shop and earning a little bit more money.
After learning different accents and studying the proper language which belonged to the arrangement between Higgins and Pickering she is satisfied with herself only for a short time.
She turns into a new person who belongs to the upper class and exceeds almost all expectations of Higgins and Pickering:
Although Higgin's experiment on Eliza is crowned with success in the end it is not clear to the reader whether Eliza wants to return to her old life.
It seems that the new life made everything more difficult than it was before.
