Hi Everybody,

I'd like to know what are the difference between 'Pronunciation', 'Accent' and 'Dialect'? Thanks.

I would suggest dictionary.com

Dialect can include much besides a regional accent- vocabulary, grammatical forms, etc. Your accent is the overall general way you speak, but your pronunciation of words may vary- if you stress a word to give it greater importance, that would be a question of pronunciation not accent.
