Reply To: How we perceive accents

Thanks for sharing! I’m glad you’ve never suffered any discrimination because of your accent @manu

I’m not familiar with the dialect in Arezzo, I find Florentines easy enough to understand, but already people from Prato I find more difficult. I think it is just a matter of tuning in and getting used to someone’s accent.

Feedback:

> Tuscany dialect > the Tuscan dialect

> Instead of using talk, use: dialect spoken: …is the dialect SPOKEN in Siena, which is the clearest dialect SPOKEN in Tuscany.

Good work 👍
