Dialect of English spoken in London
Cockney is a dialect of the English language spoken mainly in London, particularly by Londoners from working-class and lower-middle-class families. The term Cockney is also used as a demonym for a person from London's East End, or, traditionally, born within earshot of Bow Bells. Estuary English is an intermediate accent between Cockney and higher-class Received Pronunciation that is also widely spoken in and around London, and has diffused throughout southeastern England. In multicultural areas of London, the Cockney dialect is, to an extent, being replaced by Multicultural London English — a new form of speech with significant Cockney influence.
