In the present day we may, however, recognize a received pronunciation all over the country, not widely differing in any particular locality, and admitting a certain degree of variety. It may be especially considered as the educated pronunciation of the metropolis, of the court, the pulpit, and the bar.

In what follows I call it ‘Received Pronunciation’ (abbreviation RP), for want of a better term.
