Leicester English (/ˈlɛstə ˈɪŋɡlɪʃ/) is a dialect and accent (sociolinguistics), including social variations spoken in Leicester and the county of Leicestershire in England. It is a descendent of the East Midlands English variant of spoken English, as Leicester and Leicestershire are located within the East Midlands region and it possesses many features of East Midlands English with a variety of additional unique linguistic changes and features. This variant of English is able to be considered a dialect (as opposed to simply an accent), because it involves unique vocabulary, rather than just different pronunciations to other forms of English.
