      I have seen this videos several times and I just now wondered how did the Liverpool natives decide on their terms such as kecks and bizzies?
      I saw on google it was changed from kicks so how did they arrive to kecks as the change? Same question to bizzies?

      Scousers were BY FAR the friendliest in general. Met some really awesome lads and girls. It was fantastic. Even just random people working in supermarkets, cashiers, chippies, etc... were extra friendly in a really natural way (not like the fake friendliness you might encounter in London for example).

It is like being paid to attend a comedy show during working hours. Everyone has to rephrase almost every other sentence for the others to understand. Even the British people can't understand each other sometimes.

    An old friend of mine based his whole PhD on the origination of the scouse accent, he could almost trace it back to a wealthy family who imported labour for the docks. The lyrical element was Irish immigration the harsh element came from Wales. So it’s really a doubly impacted Celtic accent overlain onto Lancashire English

      The distinctive sound of the scouse is far more likely to be from the Dutch. Some words are definitely dutch. And the applies to cockney/essex. Both "sounds" are very different to their neighbours, thus not a progression. And both areas were frequented by dutch merchants.

      Did I say it sounds like the Dublin accent??? No. Read what is written - SOME of the things. Eg a lot of Irish people say 'right' the same way - ending with a soft s sounding t. Many Dublin people pronounce the 'th' sound to a d sound. In a strong Dublin accent 'nothing' is also pronounced nuttin'. Also the U sound in Ireland is the same here as an 'oo' sound. We also have the ch sound in Irish.

    The Scouse accent came about because of it's position in the country and as a sea port. It had a large immigrant Irish population in the 19th century and is also close to North Wales. It's a melting pot of various accents.

      I've never been to England, this is my first time hearing a "scouse" accent, I've never even heard of the word before.
      However, my grandparents were born to Austrian natives who made their way to the UK before coming to America.
      I love imitating accents, dialects, even my friends and family members. But my grandmother would beat me if I spoke in non-standard American English when I was a child.
      Nevertheless, I picked up this accent from somewhere, because when I imitate the English today, this is exactly how I speak.
      Unless I'm imitating a member of parliament. That's entirely different.

      You're right he is, but, if this makes sense, scousers all have their own 'twang', someone from Bootle might sound slightly different to someone from Birkenhead, it's also relevant to Liverpool's geography, a port city where over the centuries people from all over have settled. The Beatles, even though they're scousers, still have and English accent with a scouse twist. Jamie Carragher on the other hand, well, God knows..

      That's exactly what I thought. The way they pronounce the k and the u remind me a lot of low german. When you look at the history of English language, it is a Germanic language... old english sounded very similar to low german or Dutch. So my wild guess is that Liverpool kept the "old" pronunciation of their language (which is the more german one) while the rest of the country developed into a more modern version

      @Luke Thomas The "ch" sound is also very prominent in german language. Thats why liverpool accent sounds a lot more like german and dutch than standart english.
      When english people try to read german words and they dont know about the "ch" sound they always pronounce it like "k".
      For example the english word "book" is "buch" in german.
      If you try to read it without knowing of the "ch" sound you would pronounce "buch" like "buk" which sounds a lot like "book".
      You can see the words are very close to another and the "ch" sound got changed over time to the "k" sound in english.
      On the other hand the liverpool pronounciation is so much closer to actual german because they still got the "ch" sound.
      So they would say "boch" instead of "book", which sounds a lot like the german "buch". almost no difference.

    In case anyone else is wondering where the word 'scouse' came from :
    "Scouse is a type of stew, typically made from chunks of meat, usually beef or lamb, potatoes and onion. It is particularly associated with the port of Liverpool, which is why the inhabitants of that city are often referred to as "scousers". The word comes from lobscouse, a stew commonly eaten by sailors throughout northern Europe in the past, and surviving in different forms there today" Wikipedia

      ​​​@@fatdaddy1996 I think Scousers are considered super friendly because of their sense of humor, which is witty and always on point. I can imagine that taking the mikey out of each other is a national sport in the port of Liverpool and that all Scousers are proficient piss-takers from the moment they open their mouths to utter their very first "a lorra lorra laughs", and I guess because other Brits get to laugh very hard when visiting their Merseyside cousins, they confuse that dopamine rush caused by laughter and friendly banter with actual, real friendliness born out of good will from the part of their hosts, who probably don't care if their audience gets crushed under a loose train the next second because they know they can walk a little bit further down the street and find a new audience to cheer and clap on their puns. Because they are Scouses and they sure know how to tell a joke. In summary, the funnier you are, the friendlier people think you are.
