My Own Idiolect
As far as voicing goes my idiolect does'mt change drastically depending on the different situations that i am in however it does change enough so i can appropriate my voice to the situation that i am in. I would say that the features in my idiolect that would be considered quite common and would not be said to be extremely distinguishable from a large group of people but those who know me it is easily recognisable to them.
When i was younger my accent was a strong indication of where i came from, as my voice was developing i had picked up the 'Norfolk' accent from family and just my environment in general. As i got older and my voiced changed i found that the 'Norfolk' accent i was used to had sort of dissipated and wasn't as strong as it used to be however in certain words and phrases it is still recognisable, especially by those from this area. A prime example of my accent coming out is my missing out of the letter 't' in most words, especially where the letter is in the middle. Words such as 'petrol' become 'pe'rol' and 'lettuce' becomes 'le'ucce'.
With each situation depending on the formality i will attempt to correct my improper pronunciation, mainly for formal events where i must use upwards convergence where i must appropriate the features of my idiolect to suit those of a higher standing to myself. It will also move up in formality in a situation such as a job interview however i would be doing it more to present myself as a more sophisticated person and not necessarily to meet the other persons level of formality in their voice as they could have a relaxed and casual tone.
