Simple table expression, English RP accent
Please pass the salt?
"Please pass the salt."
isn't a question, so you don't need the question-mark.
If you say it this way:
Could you pass the salt, please?
it means the same, but now it's a question (and more friendly and polite) so it needs the question-mark.
Are you sure, that you want an RP accent? It's considered rather comical nowadays. It used to be the official accent of the BBC, about 60 years ago, but now we listen to ordinary, more natural accents and even the royal family speak more normally than they once did.
You can use our built-in RhinoRecorder to record from within your browser, or you may also use the form to upload an audio file for this Audio Request.
Don't have audio recording software? We recommend Audacity. It's free and easy to use.
I expect this does not have a recording yet because of the accent you are asking for. Is it that important to you or will you take any accent, just hoping for an English RP accent?
I can try to imitate an English accent, but I promise it will be bad. =)
