Question 14 • RAIL OC World Geography Studies B 2027

Compare and contrast the terms "accent" and "dialect."

Answer

Answer:

An accent is a pattern of pronunciation, such as how someone pronounces particular sounds or words. A dialect is a broader variety of a language that may differ in pronunciation, vocabulary, and grammar. An accent can be one feature of a dialect, but a dialect includes more than pronunciation alone.
