Why does Bethany have no Italian accent?
I haven't watched Corrie properly for a while so haven't seen Bethany yet, her accent has nothing Italian about it at all, regardless of her appearance and that she looks more like Sarah's younger sister than her daughter but the accent thing is really annoying.

Just because you live a different country, doesn't mean you always adopt the accent.
My friend lives in New Zealand and has done for years. But she still has her british accent. |

She might speak Italian with a Milanese accent, but there is no reason why her accent when she speaks English should change at all.

Because she spent the first seven years of her life in the north west of England & formed her accent in that time!! I daresay if she was speaking Italian to an Italian she would be able to put on a better Italian accent than someone who hadn't been living there but there's no earthly reason for her basic accent to have changed at all!!

I think it's the same reason Sarah hasn't got any Italian style in her clothes, they have been living in Rotherman street.
Seriously though, my nephew (21) was taught French at school and English at home. Speaks perfect French at work and almost perfect English at home, with the odd French inflection on an occasional word. |
