Topic	Do 'claws' and 'indoors' rhyme?
NFUN 08/16/20 12:15:37 PM #30:	Mac Arrowny posted... What are you going on about? This distinction applies for every language. Spanish Spanish vs. Mexican Spanish, French French vs. Quebecois French, etc. It'd be kind of silly to say native Quebecois have the Canadian English accent, and your Mexican/Spain Spanish example is actually what he's talking about. Mexico and Spain had different accents, even when Mexico was a part of Spain. England and Ireland/Scotland/Wales have different accents, even though they're all a part of Britain. Lumping their dialects as "British English" is unhelpful. For example, this literal question. England drops the r. Ireland doesn't We're only talking about the English Accent, not the British Accent --- You shine, and make others shine just by being near them. <cite>NFUN posted [p:943450103] in Do 'claws'...
