> Dialects and accents seem to be more prevalent in content This is why they are always on in our house. I think people who understand fine take for granted how hard accents can be. My wife is ESL. She understands me fine, and the 'neutral tv accent.' She can't understand a word my father says(Appalachian accent). Can't understand British people, Boston accents, etc. She's learning, slowly, but I've never even thought about how amazing it is we're able to process all the different ways people speak, rather seamlessly.
