Gullah Accent Learning Materials

• The Gullah accent materials include recordings of Accent Help coach Jim Johnson guiding you through learning the accent, including leading you through the details of a monologue in the accent.
• You'll get immediate access to the audio and written materials, as well as a PDF "cheat sheet" for learning the accent.
• You'll also get a number of recordings of native speakers. Jim gathered these during trips in and around Beaufort, South Carolina - bringing the experience back to you in this download. You'll also get transcripts of these conversations so that you can follow along with them.
• This accent is appropriate for productions of Yellowman and other plays. You may have heard hints of it on the TV series Gullah Gullah Island - although no such place exists, the islands off Beaufort, SC, were the inspiration.
