イギリス内のアクセント相違（雰囲気の違い）について。
まだ全然アクセントの違いわかんない…米英の区別すらついてないw
jibe
意味 ＜…を＞ あざける, からかう ＜about＞
No one is immune to jibes about their accent. Whether you speak like the Queen of England or a Cockney – people feel compelled to comment on the way your mouth makes sound.

イギリスはアクセントや発音の違いで階級が分かるって言うもんなぁ。って、どこの国も言葉遣いで育ちはバレるかw
bigotry
意味 [U]偏狭; 偏狭な考え [行為].
Sometimes those jibes are harmless fun, but sometimes they cross the line into the territory of prejudice, discrimination and bigotry.

deviate
意味 〈人が〉＜基準などから＞ 逸脱する; 〈乗り物などが〉＜進路から＞ それる, はずれる ＜from＞
It’s something that I’ve known for years – deviate from the Queen’s English, and people will judge you for it. I remember a girl at my school in Blackpool was given private elocution lessons at home to ‘improve her prospects’ – according to her parents.

get ahead
意味 ＜仕事などで＞ 成功する, 出世する ((主に英· 豪)get on) ＜in＞
But it was the first time the seed was sown in my mind that in order to get ahead in life, I would have to change the way I pronounce vowels. Although her parents’ prejudice was explicit, my bias against my own accent was subconsciously affected.

baddie
意味 [C] (英· くだけて) （映画· 物語などの） 悪役, 悪玉.
Still, it’s worth noting here that the only time northern accents were actively used in scenes was when students were playing poor people, comedy roles or baddies. There is no denying that the entertainment world casts northern voices in roles described as ‘gritty’, ‘down to earth’, or ‘salt of the earth’.

critique
意味 (かたく)〈文芸 [芸術] 作品· 論文など〉を批評 [論評] する.
Lisa Nandy, Angela Rayner and Jess Phillips (although from the Midlands – she’s considered northern to a London-centric Westminster) are three Labour women who are constantly critiqued and class-shamed for their accents.
