Degree Project Level: Dalarna University, Bachelor’S the Portrayal of the Irish English Accent in Critical Role
Degree Project Level: Dalarna University, bachelor’s The Portrayal of the Irish English Accent in Critical Role From Mollymauk to Lucien, from Taliesin Jaffe to Matthew Mercer Author: Jacob Pettersson Supervisor: Jonathan White Examiner: Julie Skogs Subject/main field of study: English Linguistics Course code: EN2035 Credits: 15hp Date of examination: At Dalarna University it is possible to publish the student thesis in full text in DiVA. The publishing is open access, which means the work will be freely accessible to read and download on the internet. This will significantly increase the dissemination and visibility of the student thesis. Open access is becoming the standard route for spreading scientific and academic information on the internet. Dalarna University recommends that both researchers as well as students publish their work open access. I give my/we give our consent for full text publishing (freely accessible on the internet, open access): Yes ☑ No ☐ Dalarna University – SE-791 88 Falun – Phone +4623-77 80 00 Abstract The study aims to investigate the differences between Taliesin Jaffe and Matthew Mercer’s portrayals of a standard Irish English accent in Critical Role in their respective performances of the character Mollymauk/Lucien. Using previous studies on Irish English pronunciation, the presence of each established feature was investigated to find how authentically the actors succeed to produce the accent. The main features investigated were the rhoticity, plosivization of /θ/ and /ð/, lenition of /t/ and /d/, yod-dropping, diphthongs, and some monophthongs. Using transcripts to locate the instances of said features, the audio of the footage was studied to discover whether the phonemes were produced in accordance with the proposed realizations within Irish English.
