English dialects: there's an app for that

Got a smartphone? If so find out if your accent is regionally characteristic with the English Dialects App (free for Android and iOS). I tried it and found that, Norfolk born and bred, I have an accent characteristic of 180 Km to the south-southwest. That's what 50 years away will do for you.

Read about it and find the link at http://phys.org/news/2016-05-app-decline-regional-diversity-english.html
