Lia I enjoyed watching you and your family in Wales and learning about other places the views were very beautiful and the language lesson was very interesting as well hope you had a good time.
Damn girl, from the moment you spoke, I had a smile on my face ! As i have said before, " you are a genuine women " & I adore your smart, personal, heartfelt vlogs. They are rich, smooth & tasty, like fine chocolate ! Love you & peace🤗❤🥀
Thanks for the fabulous tour of Cardiff! Looks like such a fun area. Any culture that values the arts and music like the Welsh do, has to be a great culture! Love seeing more of your family and friends!
Great video lovely Lia!!! ❤ I was in Cardiff September last year beautiful city!!! The number of different accents in the UK is amazing! In Australia the accents in different parts of the country don't vary that much!
I've lived in Washington state my whole life & I was surprised when I visited my brother in Florida & his friends said to me "I love your accent". I was like, "I don't have an accent, I live in Washington State, we don't have accents."😁 LOL!! I guess I do?? Too funny! So after the shock of it all, I said thank you.😊
I love Washington State I've been there many times. I don't remember anybody having an accent. But people there thought I have an accent. I'm from New Mexico. Ha ha.
I loved this vid about the Welsh accent! I love trying to peg accents when watching movies or entertainment shows on TV! ,Especially British mainland dialects, South African. New Zealand or Australian!❤😀Can't wait til your next vid!!😀
WELSH WORDS slang : Tidy 3:34 the word lush means AMAZING !!!!! nOW IN A MINUTE "SOON" Welsh phrases to learn was lots of fun!!!! It so fun to visit Wales !!! 6:09 I'm really impressed with Cardiff too. What does Slang mean words like song, being slim. and the word Angel.
when you said Patsy's greek name in the last video I was like did Lia just say Yoda 😂 love Panayota(?) her earmuffs are so cute lol both of your scarfs are so amazing!
My grandfather was Welsh and my Mother and her sisters were all part of the Arts, singing, acting etc. Very much part of what they enjoyed. Thanks for sharing.
Dear Lia, I was laughing so hard while you were trying so hard to use the right accent & naming the wrong accents. I loved getting to know & see more of your cousin Patsy. I noticed she is more accustomed to the weather as she was wearing pantyhose instead of leggings like you were.x
Your very good accents made me laugh. During my first trip to England, Scotland, Wales and both Irelands ... was saying "what ?" a lot. Must have been very annoying to the locals ... but they were very kind and repeated until I could understand. My UK friends used to say "wha ?" and roar with laughter whenever they knew I didn't understand what they had said. Can not wait to return!
Your funny Lia... Natural in front of the camera, made me smile. I'm Welsh valley born n bred, and that accent of yours is pretty much nailed on. Here's a quick easy one for you.. Oy..Wat'eww doin, an ware'ew goin now enn butt? (Hey.. What are you doing, and where are you going then mate?) Keep up the great vids !!!
Rod Westwood a lot of series are filmed in Cardiff: Torchwood, Dr Who, some scenes in Sherlock and lots more. There are a few film studios based here and the BBC has a big base here too 😊
Hi Lia! Some of our local churches in Pennsylvania where I live, sell Welsh SORRRY! cookies but we do call them cookies here, as fundraisers. Hope I didn't trigger you! I just bought some for my husband, but they aren't my favorite. You may like them because they usually aren't as sweet as a regular cookies or biscuits, since you're a SAVORY GIRL 🤗 (new t-shirt) and SWEET for Joel🤭. I was eyeing up Joel's chocolate cookie in his NY blog myself. You're looking fantastic and happy as usual , be well, and love your vlogs, so upbeat!
Can one say, 'Such a tidy video!'? I've heard of but never seen any part of Wales or Cardiff before. I didn't realize you had to cross a bridge to get there... (🤦♀️) Needless to say, I thoroughly enjoyed your video, accents, Welsh phrases and the whole cast of characters involved! 🌟
You can get welsh cakes in England in places like garden centre cafes. When I eat welsh cakes I eat them the proper welsh way which is warm with butter and a sprinkle of caster sugar.
Ice cream presidente is my hero. Doctor man said I can’t have anymore ice cream‘cause I am too too big and I eat too too much. 😢. He is mean. I may fire him. I go through a lot of doctors.
As i was watching your other video i just loved Patsys accent and i really enjoyed listening to you speak in her accent. Like the time you acted like you were American asking people questions on the street, you are very good with accents. I really enjoy watching all your videos.
I love to hear about regional customs and language. Here in the States, when I lived nearby in Rhode Island, I lived in an old mill town named, "Woonsocket" (funny name, but it's a mix of English and American Indian tongue roughly translated into "Thunder Mist" for a large waterfall on the river that flows through the city), which had a large migratory ethnic Quebecois population, that came down from Canada to work in the old woolen mills back in the day. It created a very interesting way to speak. A couple of examples would be: "Side by each" means to parallel park along a city street and a way to tell someone to get you your hat before heading out would be, "Throw me down the stairs, my hat". Obviously, it's a strong French language influence on the area.
As my landlady said to me, "Welsh cakes are not fattening; the sugar's all on the outside." The answer to "Where's that to, then?" is, "That's up by yur."
Laughed the whole time listening to you guys in the car ride! And wait... something that’s basically a shortcake pancake?? 🤯 That’s like the stuff dreams are made of. I want!!
@@o.c.smithiii2626 Do they still charge extra for pie without the ice cream? Because people ignorant enough to eat pie without ice cream would be fool enough to pay extra?
Lia Hatzakis Is it? I just love all Scottish accents really. Isnt Glaswegian more of the iconic Scottish accent? I try to do a Scot accent sometimes. Most of the time I slip into a Spanish accent! Haha.
notformebeaky Haha. I LOVE the Glaswegian accent. Which accent do you have? My mom is half Scot according to AncestryDNA. Im 1/4. We need something with Anderson on it haha. What accents do you like? Scots and others?
notformebeaky I do like that Welsh accent. I really like all the British accents but have some favorites... Glaswegian, north of England, Manchester, etc. There are so many!
They're traditionally cooked on a cast-iron bakestone, so I can see where the nickname came from. In Welsh, they're "picau" or "picau ar y maen", literally "little cakes on the stone" - "maen" being Welsh for (bake)stone. My mother has a bakestone that's been passed down through umpteen generations, and she's made some fine Welsh Cakes on it in her time :)
Was watching old Joel & Lia videos you two have really changed in the last two years. I know you have worked really hard and it’s paying off. But most of us looked our best at your age. Stay active and eat well. Your best defense. Loving all your videos. Sometime wish y’all still did shorts or skits. Not sure what y’all call them
Nothing alike. The Welsh are for the most part, introverted but down to earth. The Irish are nearly complete opposite. The only comparison is that they are both Celtic and may have had similar origins.
Channeling Joanna Page, @liahatzakis! Pretty great. Just want to sound a little like a leprechaun (in your head) when doing Welsh. Dr who was my introduction to Cardiff. I had to stand in front of the fountain from Torchwood and we went to the Dr. Who experience! It was LUSH.
Are welsh cakes softer almost like a cake texture or hard and crispy like a cookie? They’re going to fill my dreams now lol. Love the travel videos Lia and you and Ach are the cutest couple! 🥰
Hope you have good health insurance Leo, that can get quite expensive, getting beat up that is. Maybe some good running shoes so you can make a fast get away.😄
After getting my DNA testing results I discovered I have a cousin from Cardiff. I may have to introduce myself and pay her a visit. Thanks for showing us around.!
Lia I enjoyed watching you and your family in Wales and learning about other places the views were very beautiful and the language lesson was very interesting as well hope you had a good time.
Do they eat much Welsh rarebit in Wales?

@Lucy! not me! I do not say "Warsh" 😨..... but I know someone who does 🤗💕💥
We Washingtonians don't have accents!
@Lucy! Western WA not far from you, just north of Seattle.

Oh! What's occurring, Lia?! Welsh cakes are bloody lush they are, mun. Tidy video! Loved it!
Loved thiss, you really make me laugh! + You do a brilliant accent.

Wow, Patsy could have her own channel doing Welsh culture. You're both really great on camera. Very engaging.
I found this fascinating. I love different cultures, thanks for sharing :)

Torchwood had a lot of scenes in that area near the poem. The entrance to their headquarters was there.
Rod Westwood a lot of series are filmed in Cardiff: Torchwood, Dr Who, some scenes in Sherlock and lots more. There are a few film studios based here and the BBC has a big base here too 😊
I know. I feel like I've already visited Cardiff Bay.

Thanks so much Elaine
I was there in October 2019. I enjoy Wales so much.
You can get welsh cakes in England in places like garden centre cafes. When I eat welsh cakes I eat them the proper welsh way which is warm with butter and a sprinkle of caster sugar.
When you said here it sounded just like Sean Connery. Love him!
I was in Cardiff and had welsh cakes at the bay. But Llandudno and Conwy captured my heart. I so want to go back.
Ice cream presidente is my hero. Doctor man said I can’t have anymore ice cream‘cause I am too too big and I eat too too much. 😢. He is mean. I may fire him. I go through a lot of doctors.
You're killing me today Leo!😂😂😄😄😆😆
Kimberly K I don’t even have to try. It is a natural talent. Lol. And humility too.
LOL!
@@LeoTheShortGuy My husband jokes & says, yes my wife is humble, if you don't believe me just ask her!!😆😆
@@LeoTheShortGuy Thank you always for the laughs!

I loved it when you went into full Greek woman jealous girlfriend mode ala asking about his past date in Wales lol!!!!

I've never had or heard of Welsh cakes. They sound delicious! Thanks for sharing.
Cardiff makes me think of Captain Jack Harkness
As my landlady said to me, "Welsh cakes are not fattening; the sugar's all on the outside."
The answer to "Where's that to, then?" is, "That's up by yur."
1:00 Lia thought her boyfriend was a blank piece of paper. Welsh accent is really insightful !!!!
Laughed the whole time listening to you guys in the car ride! And wait... something that’s basically a shortcake pancake?? 🤯 That’s like the stuff dreams are made of. I want!!
I enjoy the video especially your Welsh accent. I’ve always loved the Welsh accent!
First!🇬🇧🇺🇸 El Prez is the most tolerant boyfriend ever. My man is no blank piece of paper. Where to next? Brenham, TX, home to Bluebell Ice Cream.
Nice job John Newman!!🍾🎉🥇
...and while there she could jet over to J.W.’s in Carmine for some real pie - not that Walmart ersatz pie stuff
@@o.c.smithiii2626 Do they still charge extra for pie without the ice cream? Because people ignorant enough to eat pie without ice cream would be fool enough to pay extra?
Ahh the daughter of the owner of that Welsh cake store was an intern at my office and she brought in bags of the mini ones all the time yum
Love that!! Small world
Every time you said Lush, I kept thinking about your favorite bath and potions shop! 😍😇😍😇
Looks more like a hill than a mountain. I live hundreds of miles from Mount Shasta and I can see it on a clear day...now THATS a mountain!
I love all British accents! BUT my fav is Glaswegian.
Glaswegian has got to be one of the hardest to imitate
Lia Hatzakis Is it? I just love all Scottish accents really. Isnt Glaswegian more of the iconic Scottish accent? I try to do a Scot accent sometimes. Most of the time I slip into a Spanish accent! Haha.
Welsh and Brummie are the best two!
notformebeaky Haha. I LOVE the Glaswegian accent. Which accent do you have? My mom is half Scot according to AncestryDNA. Im 1/4. We need something with Anderson on it haha.

notformebeaky I do like that Welsh accent. I really like all the British accents but have some favorites... Glaswegian, north of England, Manchester, etc. There are so many!
Native welsh lady here, we never say welsh cake, they are called bake stones and always eaten with butter on.
Seems like there’s a lot of different names for them!
They're traditionally cooked on a cast-iron bakestone, so I can see where the nickname came from. In Welsh, they're "picau" or "picau ar y maen", literally "little cakes on the stone" - "maen" being Welsh for (bake)stone. My mother has a bakestone that's been passed down through umpteen generations, and she's made some fine Welsh Cakes on it in her time :)
ftumschk yes, we cook them on a bake stone too, very heavy. Traditional welsh ways 😊
Such a better accent than what I could do. I'm a geordie and that's all I can do!
Awesome job on the accent! 👍
Was watching old Joel & Lia videos you two have really changed in the last two years. I know you have worked really hard and it’s paying off. But most of us looked our best at your age. Stay active and eat well. Your best defense. Loving all your videos. Sometime wish y’all still did shorts or skits. Not sure what y’all call them
Oh those looked good! I am enjoying your family and your food tasting!
That's a pretty good welsh accent, most people fail badly.
If you'd be admitted to the school in Cardiff, you'd never have met Joel!
True! Life would be very different
Wales and Cardiff (and Cardiff Bay
I have to figure out how to make gluten-free Welsh cakes! I remember them being addictive. It was probably the nutmeg in the traditional ones.
I'm half welsh 💚 I loved this ❤ now in a minute
It seems like Wales and Ireland are quite alike. Things are also written in Irish and English. Would love to visit Wales!
Nothing alike. The Welsh are for the most part, introverted but down to earth. The Irish are nearly complete opposite. The only comparison is that they are both Celtic and may have had similar origins.
Shortbread? It's a cookie then.
Good video Lia thanks but I kept looking for signs of the Torchwood locations. Next time you go do a little tour.
As you wish
I’m only watching this cause my crush is welsh
Welshcakes look great. I would have to try to the peanut butter and the milk chocolate. Wonder if they are good when they're not hot.
Go to Caerphilly castle up the valley ways, not far from Cardiff
Yes your South Welsh accent is quite good Lia. I challenge you try a North Wales accent.
Great video. So fun!
That video is lush, Lia.
I love the name Yiota, and your cousin is so lovely!😊
Aww man welsh cakes sound like my jam!
Channeling Joanna Page, @liahatzakis! Pretty great. Just want to sound a little like a leprechaun (in your head) when doing Welsh. Dr who was my introduction to Cardiff. I had to stand in front of the fountain from Torchwood and we went to the Dr. Who experience! It was LUSH.
Are welsh cakes softer almost like a cake texture or hard and crispy like a cookie? They’re going to fill my dreams now lol. Love the travel videos Lia and you and Ach are the cutest couple! 🥰
they are a soft cake texture with currants
Now I want a Welsh Cake but I am in Texas!
Hi Lia!
hiya!
I have an accent - an accounting accent. People run when they see me coming. 🤓. I don’t blame them.
😂
Jajajajaja. It's a numbers game
John Bowers Very clever. I like it. :).
Not first and proud of it.
Leo are you ok hun?
@@liahatz He's just joking. Leo is our designed joker to keep the laughs going!😆
Lia Hatzakis It is American sarcasm. Just being silly. I usually get myself in trouble with my crazy sense of humor. I get beat up a lot. 🙃.
Hope you have good health insurance Leo, that can get quite expensive, getting beat up that is. Maybe some good running shoes so you can make a fast get away.😄
The Welsh accent is awesome - Brummie and Welsh are the two best in the uk.
Oh man, I want a warm Welsh cake ❤️
That was really I M interesting do more of them
And Newfoundlanders say "stay where you're to and I'll come where you're at."
I love that!’
Really? - that sounds almost as good as the Welsh "I'll be there now in a minute". 😉
Please do northern accents like Mancunian, Scouser, Yorkshire...anything from the north of England.
The Welsh accent reminds me of watching Doc Martin
I want a Welsh cake now!
Ha ha, you sounded like Craig & Amy from Kingin' It!
I’m English but my mother says I’m Welsh
Like WTH?
Lovely mun!
Hi Lia : Harry is really alot of fun I tried to contact his assistant Emma Spring her name is the same as his SISTER. !!!!!!! HARRY Has a SISTER !!!!
Great south wales accent. But can you do a north wales accent?
I live in wales
Your boyfriend is great. I’m looking at the thumbnail about the misconceptions your viewers have about him. Maybe some people are jealous of him? 😂
It’s fun to get together with cousins, isn’t it?
York and Edinburgh in the future, please 🙏🏻
You bet 👍🏼
More fun with a spoon? "The dish ran away with the spoon!"
where is the bridge?
Has anyone ever said that your cousin’s hubby sorta resembles the famous actor Paul Rudd 🤔
I’ll pass that on!! Haha
Yeah he’s had that before... 😂
The accent that you speak from the start of the video is a welsh accent?
Does the UK have Social Security Numbers? Thought that was just a US thing
No we don’t - not that I know of 😂 just NI numbers (national insurance)
The UK'S version is National insurance. Which was apparently crested by David Lloyd George, the only ever Welsh prime minister of the UK.
After getting my DNA testing results I discovered I have a cousin from Cardiff. I may have to introduce myself and pay her a visit. Thanks for showing us around.!
Now you know to take her to Amazing Welsh Cakes. What fun it will be
You are such a cutie! Great video!!!
Where are you to? In Ireland.
U2
❤️❤️❤️
Gorgeous woman but to me she could pass as italian, french or spanish. Maybe even part hispanic.
I am horrible at distinguishing the difference....I just wanna tell other just talk..LOL...
where r u from
“Where you to now”....
You sound like people from Northern Maine!
