The given article presents the generalization of the previous studies of the pronunciation variation (the segmental level) in the speech of young native Standard British English speakers. Changes within the systems of vowels and consonants, and the phenomena of compression and decompression are associated with the loose manner of pronunciation. The analysis of the obtained results proves that young educated Brits use modern pronunciation innovations minimizing their speech efforts.
