The present project aims at examining the innovative phonological
features of current spoken English. In order to accomplish this intricate
task, several sections are introduced to make explicit the ongoing
phonological tendencies. A case study was conducted to provide a detailed
explanation of the new trends, their users as well as people’s attitudes
towards them. Once an exhaustive exploration of these aspects was
completed, this research deepened on the issue of whether the stated
contemporary phonological trends could be part of a new RP. As a support
of this hypothesis, several phoneticians as well as linguists provided their
own account on this topic. It seemed apparent that the selected topic is
one of the concerns of many authors these days. They are concerned with
Estuary English and Received Pronunciation since they came to be seen in
opposition. However, they could alternatively be seen as a modern variety
of RP. [-]
