AIBU to ask how "well" you speak?

[buggerthebotox]

Saw and article in the Mail (sorry!!) about "declining standards of spoken English" and I am wondering how you all speak and whether you consider yourselves to be "well spoken"?

im married to a middle class man who speaks the queens english . while i on the other hand am lancashire working class and am proud of it, dd has a mixture of both , katvond did you have a good time in st ives.x

I speak well, have been asked 'why do you speak so proper?' locally and told by foreign visitors that I'm really clear & easy to understand. Slight local accent. DP similar with slightly stronger accent. DS speaks quite well although drops 't's mid word quite a lot.

I speak similar to DMum, DDad had quite strong local accent, much less clear, think I probably influenced by Mums accent as she was the one who was at home more.

I'm from Glasgow and still have a definite Scottish accent but I speak properly and ennunciate clearly. My sister and I were both sent to elocution lessons as children. My firm is a multinational so I have to be clear in both my verbal and written communication.

DH is from Norf Lahndon and that is where we now live. I am constantly aware of how DD is speaking and now she is 6 I am picking her up on her pronunication, especially with regard to using the "f" sound instead of "th" which is prevalent in this area. It helps that she is now reading aloud so I ask her to repeat words that she has mispronounced.

I am well spoken with a hint of a Welsh accent. At least I think I am. My mum drummed correct English into me. I really get annoyed when people use 'and I' incorrectly because they have been told it is always used that way.

I was brought up in the north of Glasgow in an affluent area. I am well spoken and have a Scottish accent but not a Glaswegian one. I now live on the West Coast which has it's own accent and I have picked up a twang over the years but it's a nice accent so I don't mind.

I do speak fast though and try to slow down when I'm on the phone.

Brought up in South London, but don't have a South London accent as my mother thought it was 'common'. She used to make my siblings and i watch Trevor Macdonald reading the news and said that she wanted us to speak like he did.
We are all well spoken, but not posh.

Hah, and Sarf Lunnun is so trendy nowadays! All the kewl kids round here (well, as cool as you can get in Urrfordshr) talk in fake S.London accents when they're 'angin' art tageva. Makes me feel homesick.

Terribly "well spoken" . Partner not so. Son a bit London.
