Although "Received Pronunciation" (RP) as described by Daniel Jones in his English Pronouncing Dictionary (EPD) was thoroughly descriptively oriented, it happened to become prescriptive and rose to the standard pronuncation of British English. It is the necessary result of the British Broadcasting Company (BBC)'s adoption of RP. Through the BBC, RP spread all over the country. The spreading of RP in turn caused the dilution of RP. RP was characterized by two distinct features in its origin. One is social features made up of social classes, educational background, and occupations. And the other is geographical features. Both features, however, got more and more indistinct in proportion as RP spread farther and farther (2.1 & 2.2). As a result it has become difficult to define RP by these two features, because both of them have ceased to be the defining characteristics of RP. Thus the present RP is more complex. Under these circumstances British phoneticans are seeking a third feature by which to define RP. Phonetic features are a promising candidate. Even though RP is familiar among the English, many linguists and lexicographers are not willing to admit that RP is the standard pronunciation (1.1 & 1.2). Why not? It does not seem that the word 'standard' is compatible with democracy. 'Sandard, ' 'Public School Pronunciation (PSP), ' or the like do not seem to be likable in the time of democracy. In an early edition of EPD, D. Jones suddenly abandoned the term PSP for an unknown reason and then adopted RP. It is probable that he thought the term RP was more acceptable to the public than PSP. |
