Answer 2

Received pronounciation accent- Standard British English speech came to be known as Received pronounciation.

Received pronounciation:

• The Received Pronunciation accent, known as RP, has long been considered the norm for British English.
• The definition of RP is

1. whether it is regionally neutral
2. how several speakers there are
3. if sub-varieties exist
4. how acceptable a choice it is as a standard
5. how the accent has shifted over time

• These have all been debated over a period. Because RP is an accent, it is mainly concerned with concerns about pronunciation.
• Other aspects of language standards such as vocabulary, grammar, and manner are not taken into account.
