A Note About Accents and Wicc’yeth
One or two of the villagers have a Cockney accent indicated by the missing ‘h’ at the beginning of words such as ‘hello’ becoming ‘’ello’. There is also a character with a Scottish accent and an Australian. These accents have been rendered as closely as possible using English spelling conventions.
