🎬🗣️ El Transatlantic Accent: la voz que definió el Hollywood clásico Ese acento elegante, artificial y difícil de ubicar que suena a ni americano ni británico no era casualidad. El transatlantic accent fue una construcción aprendida, usada en las películas clásicas de Hollywood para transmitir sofisticación, estatus y neutralidad internacional ✨🎞️ No era un acento real: se enseñaba en escuelas de interpretación y servía para crear estrellas “universales”, alejadas de cualquier origen concreto

The Transatlantic accent was a codified, prestige accent made of the most elegant sounding pronunciations of American and British speech and was meant to sound refined and educated, but not too locally marked! It was reserved for the elite and Hollywood, since the introduction of talkies (films with dialogue) in 1927 meant studios should care about how actors soundedNobody was born with this accent since it was socially engineered, so technically Talkie is the first truly native speaker!
