We will never know for sure exactly how words were pronounced, or what people's accents were like, during Elizabethan times. The simple reason is because back then there was no way of recording anyone's voice for posterity. It is highly probable that there have been some significant changes over time. If you listen to early gramophone recordings of people talking, there is a noticeable difference even over the last century. One of the reasons is because, with a very few exceptions, oratory is no longer a subject taught in our schools as it was a hundred years ago.
