 Todd: Hello, Jason. You're from England. Uh, where are you from in England?


 
Jason: I'm from South London.
 
Todd: Oh, cool. South London. Why don't you talk about that for awhile.
 
Jason: OK, well, London is a little bit colder that Japan, it's a little bit more expensive as well, so it is kind of nice to come here and spend my money.
 
Todd: So actually, you said South London right? Is that where Wimbleton is? South London?
 
Jason: Wimbleton, No! Wimbleton's in West London.
 
Todd: West London!
 
Jason: Yeah. South London isn't famous for much, really, apart 1 from rude people like me.
 
Todd: So what's the difference between South London and West London and North London?
 
Jason: Yeah, there is a big difference between all the places in London. Everyone's got different accents 2. Everyone acts differently. England has a lot of different places. For example, in North England they'll have different accents, completely 4 different accents, from South England and sometimes even different languages, like in Wales 5 and Scotland 6, so.
 
Todd: So your accent 3 is South London.
 
Jason: My accent is South London, yeah. Someone from North London would sound completely different from me, and West London and so on, so.
 
Todd: So is South London the best place to live?
 
Jason: Oh, yeah, of course. Actually, Central London would be but it is way too expensive, kind of like Tokyo.
 
Todd: OK. Were you born in South London?
 
Jason: Yeah, I was born in South London. Yeah. But, you know, I've been everywhere in England, so and believe me there's a lot of different places, everywhere is different, so .
