@@EnglishpronunciationwithTom Yes.

Yes, local accents can be very tricky for non native English speakers. I originally made this series of videos to help my study abroad students prepare before departure. Thanks for watching!
She’s from Burnley (so am I) but I wouldn’t say that’s a typical Burnley accent. I didn’t know quite where to place it. Definitely Northern and similar but I honestly thought it was more Yorkshire.
After many watches and closed captioning I can now make out what she says. We do not sound like that in Kansas. All I can say is I love these young ladies. Pure and unfiltered emotion. Great!
@TUBEYOU-k2l There are accents in the US particularly southern accents I find hard to understand at times. I live in the Kansas City area. The accent here is called the midland accent which is basically a neutral or non-accented speech. Listening to our neutral accent all the time and then to highly accented speech it is not surprising to me to not understand parts of the speech. Not saying it is a negative thing just reality.
I am from outskirts of Liverpool and I' ve understood everything very well straight away😅. I thought this girl is from somewhere here. I think she copies her Daddy😅 Words, phrases and intonation 😅! I can hear her Dad speaking like that!
I don't have a problem understanding her. Her English is better than many people here in the States. I don't know why but I've always pronounced no and nowhere the way she does. Must be my ancestry.

That is real 'English' . I am from Australia not a native English speaker but I can understand what she said but int is word that we don't use in normal conversation. int or aint. But this is not as difficult to understand as the Scottish accent I heard from a Scot.
@@jliang70 yeah the Burnley accent is much easier than some others. Scouse, Glaswegian, Geordie. They can be really tough to understand. Thanks for watching.
I don't get what does she mean by" that comes on my street have one pound or p or 2 Pound". There's another van that sells ice cream for 1 or 2 pounds?
It gets difficult when she talks about the price of ice creams from the van on her street. I can't quite make out the first part of the sentence, and the transciption doesn't help either because it not clear what she means. '1 pound, a P, or two pound'. Does that mean 1 pound and 1 p for 1 ice cream and 2 pounds for 2?
Hi there, thanks for watching. Yeah, she isn't really clear about the ice cream van on her road. It sounds like she's saying it costs 'a p', so 1 penny, but there is no way an ice cream would be that cheap
@@zaloriis me or the girls in the video? 😂. I can see why they went viral. Very funny and talking about something we are all effected by, rising prices. Thanks for watching 👍
one pound a piece, or two pounds. don't know why you would put " a p " in a sentence. Also i think it was supposed to be "instead of my cash" not "stood with my cash". There's still more listening to be done here.
@@victorrobison5069 thanks for watching. I put ‘a P’ because that what it sounds like she said. I don’t know if you are British but saying P for ‘pence’ is common. Interesting you thought it was something different. I’ll go back and have a listen. Thanks for listening and commenting 👍
NAH. no. Not "Instead of my cash". I hear clearly she said 'there' too. So it's 'Stood there with my cash' as in she did stand there with her cash because she has no card.
It is difficult to understand the sentence B. I heard something...No meaning at all. 😂😂😂😂. Is there any native British person who didnt understand her talk ? 🤔🤔🤔🤔.

Burnley, is up North, isn't it ? Aye it has a pretty decent Football team, but I wish they would stay in the Premier League.
@@safetynudge9026 Me too! It’s the team I follow. We are doing well this season. Got a great chance to get promoted.
I don't get what does she mean by" that comes on my street have one pound or p or 2 Pound". There's another van that sells ice cream for 1 or 2 pounds?
Sorry i it seems a bit silly but i'm confused about it.would u pls explain it.
Hi there, I'm not sure either. Others have commented that it might be 'a piece'.
It gets difficult when she talks about the price of ice creams from the van on her street. I can't quite make out the first part of the sentence, and the transciption doesn't help either because it not clear what she means. '1 pound, a P, or two pound'. Does that mean 1 pound and 1 p for 1 ice cream and 2 pounds for 2?
Hi there, thanks for watching. Yeah, she isn't really clear about the ice cream van on her road. It sounds like she's saying it costs 'a p', so 1 penny, but there is no way an ice cream would be that cheap
She means 1 pound a piece
@@flipswanepoel3554 not sure about that. But maybe. Kids say all kinds of things
Talk about jumping on these kids bandwagon😮
Thanks for engaging

Interesting, what part sounds Scottish?

You british?

Soccer team not Football Club?

That video has been played by many people and TV stations but this guy ruined it with his nonsense.

one pound a piece, or two pounds. don't know why you would put " a p " in a sentence. Also i think
it was supposed to be "instead of my cash" not "stood with my cash". There's still more listening to be done here.
@@victorrobison5069 thanks for watching. I put ‘a P’ because that what it sounds like she said. I don’t know if you are British but saying P for ‘pence’ is common. Interesting you thought it was something different. I’ll go back and have a listen.
Thanks for listening and commenting 👍
NAH. no. Not "Instead of my cash". I hear clearly she said 'there' too. So it's 'Stood there with my cash' as in she did stand there with her cash because she has no card.
@@rachelciel3330I think so too
No, She said "Stood there with my cash"
@@pipithakolbjorn3998 agree
it's not tricky, kids just talk weird
@@auronedgevicks7739 that’s true
It is difficult to understand the sentence B. I heard something...No meaning at all. 😂😂😂😂. Is there any native British person who didnt understand her talk ? 🤔🤔🤔🤔.
@@erandajanaka3790 yeah it’s tough to catch
Kind of annoying that your head is blocking one of the words that is hard to understand. Stood their with !

I get a laugh out of a grown man trying to make money off a little girl that has a video that went viral, things must be tough for him. Get a real job and get off your ass.
@@barrybigelow4259 thanks for watching! I make these videos to help my study abroad students be better prepared for when the are confronted with rapid colloquial speech of local people. Research shows that even high level English learners feel a sense of shock when they arrive in the host counties that can last for weeks.
I don’t make any money from TH-cam. That’s not why I have made these videos.
Glad a gave you a laugh though. Feel free to check out the others in the playlist.
Dont think this a good lesson to study english bro
@@adnanzia9167 it’s part of a playlist I made to help my students who are about to study abroad get used to strong regional accents. Not to understand them completely but to reduce the potential shock many students feel when confronted with rapid colloquial speech.
Thanks for watching and commenting bro. 😎
@@EnglishpronunciationwithTom Hi Nice.
Lancashire nothing to do with Manchester thank god 😃👍
Not any more, no (though the Manchester coat of arms still has the Lancashire red rose on it). I only showed Manchester to she viewers where Burnley is in the UK.
Thanks for watching!
@@EnglishpronunciationwithTom loved the video I'm Mancunian as you might have guessed. Just a pointer we in the city love to get across.
@@lowfatmofat2152 no worries. Us Lancastrian’s don’t want anything to do with you lot either 😂 (just joking)
@@EnglishpronunciationwithTom I'm fine with that 😃 it's a banter thing nothing personal ❤️
@@lowfatmofat2152 I’m fine with the bants.
I should probably do a Manchester accent video as well. With Oasis getting back together it’s be nice timing.
Thanks again for watching!
