Food for thought??
Not really transcripts of ATC and standard phraseology, however ICAO Has published rated speech samples used in the training of English Language Proficiency Assessors/Interlocutors.
These can be accessed at
https://cfapps.icao.int/RSSTA/ and give an overview of different English Language Proficiency Levels.
It may assist in understanding the different regional accents and Language Proficiency Levels.
