South African English voice over and accent

South Africa has several English accents tied to history, region and first language, and audiences hear them as signals of who is speaking.

South African accents carry cultural and language background, so casting should match the audience and not only the country.

What to settle for South African English

  • South African English: which of those accents matches the people the brand is talking to.
  • South African English: slang and loan words from local languages that may confuse outside readers.
