It isn’t difficult to tell British English from American English. But can you name the differences? Sure, some words are different, but that isn’t it. In this video I go through the most important differences in the pronunciation. If you, like I, ended up speaking with a mixed up accent, this video will help you to pick one and throw out the other.
