Dear AUE group!
My name is Andrea Madar, I am a university student in Hungary. Next
semester, I would like to carry out an attitude study in Luton,
examining the attitudes towards RP and Irish accents. I would like to
ask whether I can use the wav files I have found on the page
http://alt-usage-english.org/audio_archive.shtml#Arthur. And if yes,
could you please share some information with me about the RP1 and the
Southern Irish speaker - I need the following data: the date of
recording; the speakers' age at that date; their education and
occupation. I would be most grateful if you could help me with my
project. Thank you very much!
Best wishes
Andrea |

The Southern Irish speaker is Brian J. Goggin, a former regular here.
You could browse Google Groups for his postings and see if he shares
that information (or his e-mail address).

Mr Goggin's accent is very slight, and might go unnoticed by many British
people. If it's attitudes to accents that you're examining, you should
probably find a more distinctive example. Similarly "RP1" (Mr Marcus Laker)
speaks with an accent that is Modified RP rather than "pure" RP as
originally described (and I don't mean the extreme "hyperlectal" accent now
almost universally mocked). So you may find that your respondents think
there's little or nothing to have an attitude to!
