You can travel 50 miles the accent changes at least 3 times and there’s at least 2 of those areas at war over what a bread roll is called 😂
You mean barm
You mean cob
I'm from a city called lichfield. 20 mins to brum, Derbyshire, Warwickshire and cannock. No matter what way I leave the city, the accent changes in no time 😂
You mean breadcake
@@NihilistCrab that's obscene!
As someone from liverpool i can officially say that that scouse accent was diabolical 😂
was gonna say lol im not even from up north and that sounded nothing like scouse
The scouse accent is funny for about five minutes then all of you get really fucking annoying 💀
No fr I'm from right next to Blackburn and that was horrible. I'm ngl i could probably do most of these accents better than her. Still a good watch cos these Americans acc looked so jarred by it all 😭
As somebody from birmingham aghhhhhh I'm sorry but
@@nathan87Yh she fucking butchered the Birmingham accent 😂
I’d defo say she’s better at the southern accents than the northern 😭
As a Cornishman I totally disagree, she thinks we sound like bleedy Pirates?
She was terrible
@@EvilEdd69as a Cornishman some people do sound like pirates. Usually older people or people who still speak the Cornish language
@paulcoutts7333 dunno what part of Cornwall your from but the accent I'm used to sounds nothing like Pirates! 7th generation Roseland man here.
@@Ptttsscyou've got no idea what you're on about. The Cornish language hasn't been spoken natively in over 200 years
Hi from Scotland, she missed about 50 accents from Scotland.
An American sharing his fascination with the British Accent to other Americans. This was so funny🤣
I'm british.
@@matthewkent5212ok
@@matthewkent5212alright mate 😂
@@runyourpocketsg9811 I'm british but there's nothing fascinating about my accent.
Dead ass bruh
When she said 'Diolch yn Fawr' in the Northern Welsh section, she wasn't speaking English but Welsh - an entirely different language, not just an accent, and it means thank you very much. I think she did most of the accents pretty well. Even Norfolk was okay, which most people tend to morph into a west country accent.
North Wales 🙌🏻 My home!
Tbf, wales is in britain, so the regional welsh accent could also be considered a british accent. Just not an english accent.
all where good apart from scouse lol
Lmao
@@backwardsdovah9373nah
I like how respectful they are throughout the video, it’s really refreshing
Im a Yorkshire lass, and Yorkshire is one of the largest counties of the UK and consequently divided into 4 parts - each with clear accent differences. Interestingly, I think her yorkshire accent wasn't like any one of the four ;) but I love that you find it your favourite! Yorkshire people are very grounded and huge hearted type of folks :) 🌸🌸
Im from west yorkshire and i dont think she did the accent very well either , we defo sound more common 😂
Funny thing is, I’m from North Yorkshire, live in Birmingham and talk in a noticeably West Yorkshire accent 😂
@aberfordwest4003 wait I've just said about Brummie accent deriving from Yorkshire accent 😂 I'll have to find the book
I'm from South Yorkshire and each accent is different. Sheffield are losing their Yorkshire accent not as broad as Barnsley or Rotherham and Doncaster is a mixture
@@themadhouse768 can you type the word "couldn't" in a 'Ull accent please 🤣🤣
A lot of people get the Birmingham accent mixed up with the Black Country accent which are not the same at all.
it's legit like a mile from brum stop coping
coping? are you a real person? I'm from Birmingham and no one sounds like that. you tried tho@@heart_of_a_daedra3649
Hell yeh plz don't mix us black country lot with Brummies lol
Please don't mix us Brummies up the Yam Yams!
I'm a brummie my brother in law a yam yam totally different
I stumbled across this video and was totally taken aback by how wholesome it was. Just 3 genuinely lovely lads seeking to understand something foreign to them. So sweet, love from the uk x
I thought the exact same. The one who's travelled to the places is fr just me when I show my friends a video, just on camera. (I have a radio face). The going back 5 seconds, the little stories to go with them. My mates get so annoyed but these 3 were actually adorable haha
And all wearing the same vest.
There’s the Welsh language, Cornish language (which is in Cornwall south west of the country), there’s Scot’s , Scottish Gaelic and then Irish Gaelic
I’m a Yorkshire lass, and am very proud of my accent and love that you guys love the Yorkshire accent too! ❤
North, East, South, West or Hull?
South 🫶🏼❤️🫶🏼
@@RachelBuxton i’m from south yorkshire too and proud 😊
I don’t know the lady but I think a more realistic impression could be gained from actually speaking to locals from different regions or even adjacent towns . She was comprehensible , most of the broad “ local “ accents are completely unfathomable .
Yow boy royt abawt tha !!!
Totally agree. That's what I was expecting with this video. Not one person exaggerating accents in an attempt to be funny, on top of some totally wrong information in places.
Indeed, the old boys down the local Norfolk pub almost need a translator sometimes I feel.
she's a bit bolox
Ayy bro lad you not wrong innit arr mayte sick rhyte
She gets a 7/10 for these accents. I grew up in London and now live in South Wales, plus I travel for work so I visit most of the UK. She did a good job, but they weren't all completely accurate :)
I agree- they were ok but not great. 6/10
her scores accent was awful@@sheridanjay
yeah to be honest im disappointed in her accents, they actually dont properly show just how different our accents are. they were watered down versions i felt
Scouse accent was shit
I was thinking the same thing.
That geordie was absolutely horrendous just for the record
Fr
Geordie and scouse is horrendous regardless of who's speaking it lol
Sounded nout like geordie a mean howay does this bird really think she's good at accents?🤨 😂
In yorkshire the yorkshire accent changes from Leeds to York to Hull to Scarborough within one county. Some farmers in the Yorkshire Dales speak a dialect that uses words no one outside of 40 miles would understand.
So if a region has a distinctive accent, that one accent then changes slightly from city to city within that region.
The Scotland accents were shocking unfortunately. Ewan McGregor is from Perth and that accent is different further yet. Robert Burns was from Ayrshire, which has a similar sounding accent to Glasgow. I’m baffled as to why Inverness would be even considered as a comparison 😂
I’m Scottish and agree the accents were poor, as were the English ones, being 100% honest. I’d go as far to say Edinburgh even has half a dozen distinct accents as it’s so class-stratified, so the only one she had a go at was the ‘Morningside’ accent, which is quite exclusive.
Thought the same she just sounded like an English person trying to do a Scottish accent no offence there's lots of lovely accents in England too
I was actually wondering if she was referring to a different Robert Burns, I'm thinking to myself, nah, Rabbie was from Alloway (south Ayrshire) and is definitely more similar to Glaswegian. And, to be fair, I think she missed the mark on more more than half of the accents she was trying to do. I certainly couldn't do any better, probably would do much worse, but I don't think she was the "right person for the job". Also, name one city in the world that is NOT rough around the edges.
They were absolutely mince
Yeah, and apparently Burns was. ‘Sir’???
Midland accents change every 10 miles or so and common spoken languages even less, our diverse community is amazing and we all get along 🎉❤
I used to love Beryl Reid and her character 'Marlene from The Midlands'. I tend to pick up an accent of the people I associate with, especially when I lived and worked 'in The Valleys' of South Wales.
Im from Coventry we talk totally different to brummie and lesta Nottingham
Leicester has a very distinctive accent.
It's true! I'm in Northamptonshire. We just get on with it in the Midlands. No fuss!
Spot on, said the same thing just now!! Southam here but from Leam there's def a difference even 7 miles away, then we are 15 down road from Banbury, so goes from grass to grarse haa xx
Kudos to her for attempting 3 Scottish accents but they weren’t very good 🤣 there’s also a lot more of a variety depending what city or town you go to. However I respect the effort she put in.
from the uk- its so good to see someone who has done their research, spent time in the country and understands the culture making a video like this. this is how everyone should be before claiming to 'know' a certain country's culture, so misinformation and ignorence doesn't spread. great job lad
As a Londoner, doing Uni in West Yorkshire, I can tell you that I suddenly felt very posh after hearing how everybody else sounds
Can't beat the Yorkshire accent 👌
I'm a Leeds lass living in London - I feel like a Barbarian 😅
@@kerryholland4822brilliant 😂😂
As someone from Lancashire, I know they hate u for that accent 🤣. Be honest, how many times have you been called Tory 🤣🤣🤣.
@kerryholland4822 howling a barbarian 🤣😭. I'm in Cardiff from near Preston and for a nation famous for their odd accent I don't half get some funny looks. And then I go and say something dead northern, like the phrase dead northern and I'm laughed at. Kinda saved when the 2 lads from Bolton walked in cos jesus that's the epitome of the Northern accent 🤣
I'm a Brummie, Jps...and the accent is much worse and more incomprehensible than she could do.... 🙂
With the slang added its almost a different language. She didnt get it right.
absoloutely butchered it, never set a foot in birmingham 🤣
Wonder what they’d think of the Black Country accent, they wouldn’t understand a word, I have to translate for my (English) husband 😂
What you mean worse? Brummie is a brill accent.
Auf Wiedersehen, Pet has a great selection of dialects. Timothy Spall, who plays Barry, has a really difficult to understand Brummy voice if you're unfamiliar, and I expect you guys would struggle to understand Jimmy Nail as Oz with his Newcastle voice as well.
I would love to see you react to 'Auf Wiedersehen, Pet'. One of my favourite shows to watch growing up.
The reason why the "brummie" accent sounds familiar is because of the BBC show Peaky Blinders.
I love how the guy geeks out on language so much, and actually knows a lot 😄👍🏻
When she said "Thank you very much" in the Northern Welsh section, that was NOT an English accent but the Welsh language. Welsh is separate from English, it's a Celtic language related to Irish and Scottish Gaelic, and more closely still to Cornish and Breton (from Fance's Brittany region).
Yep, they don’t even know that English is a west Germanic language.
There's a difference between dialects and accents. The former involve uses of different words, terms, and turns of phrase, in addition to accents. For example, North Wales English is generally considered to be one dialect, but within this there is a wide variation of accents. Even in English, their second language, a Caernarfon child's accent would be a challenge for a Flintshire kid to understand. So, while there are about 40 accepted dialects of English in the UK, the number of distinct accents must number in the hundreds.
Not really. Linguists will argue that there is not such thing as "accents" and that there's no definitive difference between dialect and language.
@@entwistlefromthewho 😂 they can argue all they want, accents exists... an american saying the exact same words sounds different than an englishman.
Dialects are to do with words used not how they're said so it 100% language...
I dunno where you got such a ridiculous statement.
@@seldom_bucket You're not a linguist. You've applied your own definitions and that's it. An accent, though largely to do with sounds, is unable to be detached from dialect (or idiolect, if you prefer). You obviously have no understanding of the evolution of languages. What's the difference between a language and a dialect? Well, there isn't one - not a hard and fast rule anyway. When does a dialect become so different that it becomes a new language? - That's a matter of debate too. It's not so much that accents don't exist, they're just a very small part of a much larger puzzle that the average layman doesn't understand, but serves as a good enough day-to-day distinction. You can argue that you know more about it than centuries' worth of academics if you want, but that just makes you a fool.
@@entwistlefromthewho Though I´m german, I understood all these brithish accents. Besides our "High-German" we like to speak our lokal accents/dialects. Especially at the german northern Coast. I´m not able to understand anything! My Northern-Coast-Friend told me, that he couldn´t understand either if he is in his Neighboring village and older people are talking.
Gag am Rande: Ich habe über 30 Jahre für amerikanische Konzerne gearbeitet. Mein Boss sollte nach D versetzt werden und er musste dafür deutsch lernen. Er wurde dann ins schwabenländische Stuttgart geschickt. Da konnte er gleich wieder bei null anfangen. 😂
@@entwistlefromthewho OH ARE YOU?
Love how the two guys on the right actually sound interested, a lot of channels where people just sit there
Joel, it was Ewan McGregor mentioned, not Connor McGregor and Ewan is definitely Scottish and from Perth 😄
I suppose they're most likely to know him as Obi Wan in the Star Wars prequels
I’m from Glasgow and the majority of people don’t speak like how she’s said it all - a lot faster and also there are loads of different accents too. Every area of Glasgow including the outskirts - north Glasgow, South Glasgow etc can have different accents I’d say
Not a single person from Glasgow speaks like she did 😂 Terrible
aye, south side glasgow all have a really rough accent, probably cos it’s the roughest area, but if you go up the the north of glasgow it’s a lot more deliberate sounding and pronounce more, any further east and people start to sound more like edinburgh. the west seem to keep that sort of south glasgow accent tho
So many different accents here, go a couple miles in one direction and it will change a tonne. Go south you have a pretty rough accent, go further south and you have a posher accent
Yeah I’m Welsh and barely understand Glaswegian at all!!!
Yeah I found her Scottish accents to be hella inaccurate
Good video, this lass had a decent go with covering the very basics!
She's really talented and spot on from my 50 years living and exploring UK.
Cool reaction video lads.
That’s correct - Yorkshire accent is a no nonsense accent you’ve perfectly described it. All accents sounded excellent but the Birmingham accent is notoriously difficult to achieve. Listening to Geordie from afar (not hearing the words distinctly) makes it sound Scandinavian. Not surprising given their Viking heritage.
@@Dave-oe7ry I was on Lindesfarne at the time I heard some folk chatting in the distance. I thought they were speaking Norwegian or Swedish. It wasn’t until I got nearer I realised they were Geordies.
Definitely brummie accent was poor she did a Black Country accent closer to Dudley than Brum
There are places in Yorkshire where the people of a single village speak different dialects depending on which end of the village they live. E.g. The village of Lowthorpe. People from the north end pronounce it Low(rhymes with Oh) Thup(rhymes with Pup), whilst people from the south end pronounce it Low(rhymes with Oww) Throp(rhymes with Prop).
As an outsider... Its clearly a mix of both right? Low (oh) thrope (prop)
big up yorkshire
Big up Yorkshire
Yep I’m South Yorkshire and my partner is West Yorkshire we speak different 😂
As someone from Scotland, I almost started crying and wanted to turn it off when she done Edinburgh, Glasgow and Inverness. It was diabolical 😂 she also missed out so many other distinct places in Scotland. On the plus side, I thought you guys are awesome and you now have a new subscriber! :)
I’m Scottish , Glaswegian. Scotland is another country where the accents can change is a crazy way . Even in Glasgow the accent can change a bit throughout . Check out Glaswegian , then Dundee , rural parts of Scotland , west coast villages and such and the worst of all is Aberdeen . I can never figure out what their saying . The reason the Scottish and Irish thong is also due to a lot of us being Scottish Irish mix
She didn't get the Brummie ( Birmingham ) quite right but a fair effort .
Sounded more Black Country than brummie lol
Yes please cover more UK accents and dialects maybe ones where locals are speaking 😅
A Good idea, some of the interpretations were not what I hear. Examples used not really appropriate. e.g. Maggie Smith is not Scottish and was imitating a Scottish accent on the Harry Potter Films. The cast of Billy Elliot were also imitating an accent. Most regional accents are not as strong as they were 60 years ago, possibly due to TV Broadcasting and most 'polite' people will reduce it as soon as they realise the person they are speaking to is either not from the area or they are foreign.
The Shetland Islands dialect is mental. A cross between Scottish and Norwegian. But it’s not even shown on this map!
That would have been a better way of doing it local accents and the differences between accents and dialects to clarify the only way to properly hear the accent s authentically is from a native speaker
Agreed! The south west changes with every city so I’m sure the rest of the country does too!
Brilliant video guys
im from Yorkshire and my friend is from the Isle of Wight and its nice to talk to her because our accents are so different but I love it
Wales has it's own language, although many just speak English with a Welsh accent, the Welsh do have their own language. Scot natives and Irish also speak Gaelic and also have many different accents.
The language is Gaeilge, or in English it's called Irish.
Celtic languages can be broken into two sub families , Brittonic languages=Breton Cornish and Welsh and then Goidelic (Gaelic)=languages Gaeilge (Irish) Manx and Scottish Gaelic. To refer to welsh as Gaelic is wrong it is a Celtic language but not part of the Gaelic subgroup.
It was Ewan McGregor, not Conor McGregor, that she was talking about from Edinburgh. You mentioned Geordie being a weird one - it's also one of the main points of origin for a lot of British West Indian accents, many of which were at least partly settled by seafarers from the Newcastle area. You can still hear traces of the Geordie accent in Jamaican and Barbadian English accents.
Didn’t know this but makes a lot of sense
As a Yorkshire lass, hearing people from other countries saying the Yorkshire accent is their favourite accent makes me smile. Also hearing him pronounce Yorkshire right instead of York-shaiyer makes me happy 😂
Glad you like the Yorkshire accent. Yorkshire is the biggest county and there are large differences in accents from place to place. My mum and dad were born 5 miles away from each other in different valleys in West Yorkshire and had some different vowel sounds. My dad would pronounce weight and wait differently for example, whereas both words are pronounced the same for me.
Love the way you guys are learning about British culture, whilst keeping it light hearted.
Just came across your channel, but I’ll be sure to subscribe.
they should learn about Morris dancing, Maypole, Mayday, Jack 'o the green for example - english culture that isn't given barely any attention even by english people
I’m so glad you travelled to Newcastle, loads of people seem to skip it when they travel to the UK but it’s amazing! And you’re right about the night life! 😂
I'm from North Wales and I'm proud to say that we have the best acsent
I've become very fond of your videos. Thanks friends.. ( Lake/ Disrtict / Cumbrian Dialect. North West England. Meaning of As Gitten...etc
I love the little grin and twinkle in your eye when talking about your night out in Newcastle. ;)
The Scottish accents were absolutely dire.
@@LEx-ho1bd You’re correct , she was dire all round.
Lancashire in particular was pretty bad
@@ScoiataeI I’m from Edinburgh and she made us sound like we all have cut glass accents. We definitely don’t .
@billiejeanmartinlaing1678 she's obviously never been down Gorgie or Easter Road!...
Also, I'm from Auld Reekie and there are at least 4 accents in Edinburgh alone!
@@HarryFlashmanVC Aye .. we defo don’t sound like that at Easter road.
What a wholesome reaction guys! Made me laugh. What's with the vests?
I love how fascinated and kind you guys were. I'm from mid-Wales, neither North nor South - smack bang in the middle! Some of us have a stronger mish-mash of the two accents and some of us sound like we're straight from London (don't ask me how!). My favorite accents are Yorkshire and Cockney. I like the way they sound.
Ok, guys, if you REALLY want classic examples of British accents, Google the following. These are true representatives of how their local dialect sounds! Here we go: For Cardiff - Frank Hennessy (I know I hate the Cardiff accent, but I love Frank!). Llanelli - Scott Quinnell (or me!). Swansea - the character “Nessa”, from the show “Gavin and Stacey”). Yorkshire - Sean Bean. Liverpool - Paul Smith (stand-up comedian). London (East End) - Ray Winstone or Bob Hoskins. “Posh” London - Hugh Grant. Birmingham - Jasper Carrott (comedian). Glasgow - Kevin Bridges (comedian). Edinburgh - Sean Connery. The West Country, as it's referred to (Devon & Cornwall, generally) - the late, great Jethro (stand-up). Newcastle - Jimmy Nail. There are MANY more, from all over the country, but I'd be here all night! Hope these prove useful/enlightening to you guys! Great channel, by the way!
cardiff hates you too
Vicky McClure for Nottingham accent.
Please don't use Cornwall in the same sentence as Devon, especially infront of!
Sorry but a farmer from North Yorkshire won't sound anything like Sean Bean
Your understanding of the regions and accents is impressive - not many reactors from outside the island know as much.
I was surprised too but he said he’d visited these places so I was like ahhh that’s how he knows lol
I’m from Ireland. She did really well. You guys are v interesting to watch. Liked.
For someone from the (very) south Welsh valleys they did the accent pretty good, I’m impressed! 👍
Lads, thank you for saying, ‘Football’ 😂…. It means a lot 👊🏼
I think it's good to emphasis that the welsh accent, all the many, many various ones, being so unique is from the language we speak! in the welsh language, cymraeg, the stress is put on the penultimate syllable (example: af-TER-noon, al-TI-tude, or fu-TURE) whereas in English (also known as Saesneg in welsh) the stress is almost always on the first syllable, except for some verbs!
Also! liverpool/scouse accent is both heavily influenced by north welsh (a lot of welsh people call the north welsh gogs- as gog comes from gogledd, which means north in welsh!) and vice versa! I think scouse also has a lot borrowed from dublin and more southern parts of Ireland, as well
was looking forward to seeing you do this kind of video
edit: but definitely would love to see you watch more vids on accents!
What hansom lads with wonderful manners
I'm from a small village in Mid Wales and its a totally different accent again from North or South. We also speak Welsh at home and my kids go to a Welsh speaking school 🏴
I live in Swansea (place in Wales) and in Swansea you can go like 2-6 miles in each direction and find a new accent with different slang.
She said EWAN McGregor though. 😂 You know, Obi-Wan Kenobi.
And he's from Crieff, not Edinburgh. And his customary speech is SSE (Standard Scottish English) which is not geographical.
Very good video lads, genuine reactions and humble with it (from Leeds). Your opinions and observations are spot on also 🫡
Llanfair PG (the very long Welsh place name) was invented about 1900 as a publicity stunt. It worked.
The term "RP" appeared in a pronunciation guide published in 1962. By 1970 it already had drastic updates, because most people related it to "the established order", so it was not very "popular". Do not confuse RP with "Posh", which is the style of nobility. Traditionally, it was heard by BBC announcers. Not too many people use it in the UK, even though it is considered the correct (or neutral) way. People who learned English in Commonwealth countries are an exception. Freddie Mercury had a perfect RP accent.
I studied in Cardiff 30 years ago, you could tell what part of the city people came from by their accent. That’s a city with a population of 350k.
Many decades ago there was a programme called The Fishing Race. My cousin's Brummie accent was so broad they used subtitles. I travelled from North Birmingham to Kinver 25 miles away and it took me two days before i could understand a word.
Omg is he (the one on the left) the shawty is a melody in my head guy from that one random yt short haha
For any Americans confused by the Conor McGregor thing.
She said Ewan McGregor - as in the famous actor from Star Wars, Trainspotting, Big Fish, The Island etc. The guys must have misheard her. He is from an area of Scotland just north of Edinburgh so she used him as an example of that accent.
Conor McGregor is from Dublin in Ireland.
Billy connolly says it best “when you get off the train at Glasgow central, you can feel Glasgow coming through the souls of your feet” .. I shall agree with the rough part however it’s full of character, lots of architecture, museums, art galleries. It also became the uk’s first world city of friendship… a little Rough I’ll give you but there’s nowhere quite like Glasgow. 🤗 Also 4/10 for accents she sounded almost the same with everyone
I absolutely LOVE Glasgow ! The people are VERY friendly & they like to party (that was my experience anyway) . Plus I had the best fish & chips ever called a supper ? & it was amazing ❤
White vest gang
Maybe they have Italian ancestry?
Stella- comment 😅
There is a book on the history of our accents quite funny too!! Also makes me proud of Yorkshire, Richard III spoke Yorkshire in court and travelled as far South as Birmingham which is where the book says how the Brummie accent derived!! 😂😂
In the wrexham area (north east wales) there are at least 10 accents, we can tell which part of the Borough and neighbouring counties people are from just from listening to them speak. The people from the various areas also have different names...Jacko, town head and so on.
We play rugby in Wales, it's massive here. If you ever come to Wales, you must come to watch the rugby in Cardiff......you'll be amazed, I promise.
Stream a game, listen to the wonderful Welsh singing.
So happy to see all of you react to an accents video. Waiting for you all to react to the one on WIRED with a tour of American accents.
As an American living in England, learning how to understand both Mackam and Geordie, I think I can understand any accent now. 😅
What about scouse
The great thing about a Belfast accent is that it's one of the few accents that can sound more intimidating and threatening the slower and quieter it gets.
She was talking about Ewan McGregor, who is Scottish.
Robert Burns was from Ayrshire, South of Glasgow. Similar accent to Glaswegian but not as harsh.
5:39 Speaking of the Welsh place that has a long name, that’s where Taron Egerton is from.
Love from Yorkshire bro
You young guys are great. I explained to my Italian friends the massive range in accents in then Uk but it was hard to explain as they explained there are differences in Italy. But those accents did not sound much different to me haha
This was fun, Joel! My grandmother was from Bristol and my grandfather from Battersea. My cousins are in Derbyshire and Wiltshire, and volunteer in Dorset during summers. All different accents. My moons ago, I hosted 50 British Army Cadets visiting Canada. A cadet from Blackpool was incomprehensible to everyone except for one Brit cadet, who then translated for everyone else in the group. Amazing!! Cheers, John in Canada
That must have been fun. Good job you didn’t have a load of Scots. 🤣
The Vicar of Dibley, Oasis... Love that you're visiting 90s Britain, specifically 😅 If you're getting into Britpop I'd massively recommend Pulp as well, their lyrics really get into the complexities of class and regional cultures - "Common People" is a great starting point. If you're going further back to the 80s Ian Dury & the Blockheads, or The Specials touch on similar themes
Blur were better
Hi listening to you boys watching this .The lady was very good too.I come from West yorkshire ,we have 3 ridings West /north/South yorkshire .We used to have an East too but that was immersed into the 3 instead of 4 . We also have different dialects in all the yorkshire ridings .My grandmother was from North Yorkshire near York , she used a lot of different words .She married a man from Cheshire ,who was working on an Estate he was head Gardener, and Grandma was a ladies Maid before they married .
Dude I’m so sure I’ve seen you on the train up north in Yorkshire. Kinda cool I recon.
Your mate, on the right side of the camera as it’s viewed by us. Is it, Archer, Archerio?? He should have his own channel. I hope he has. He seems informed, intelligent, witty, and capable. Definitely has a future ahead of him, that’s for sure 👌🏻
Guess it's laundry day
When you said yorkshire is no nonsense you hit the nail on the head 👌
Hi love your videos...I am from Liverpool you should visit ... especially in the summer lots of very good clubs the most friendliest place in England x
She does a good job, its worth noting that midlands and Yorkshire accests very a lot. That there is Estuary English (working class accent of the south east) , Multi Cutural London English that many younger londoners speak and how different Manchester and Liverpool are despite being so close.
Her Scottish accents are awful
Her Birmingham was shocking 😂 but yeah there's a ton of different Midlands accents no one cares about as they are seen as unattractive
What does "accests very a lot" mean?
@@stevenmathers6661 it's English for pedant
Estuary English isn't "working class", it's a combination of received pronunciation and London accent.
Polish with a Yorkshire boyfriend who claims 30 years ago people were able to distinguish from which area of city someone is from by the accent (Ripon 16k citizens, but it has a Cathedral!), now I can definitely recognise different accents of locals in Harrogate and Bilton (one town, walking distance 15 minutes). She didnt do to well scottish or irish accents - could invite somebody, but otherwise she did it well.
What about in Poland. Is there much difference in accents around the country?
Near where I am you can drive from Huyton to Huddersfield on the M62 and hear 4 different accents. It's 50 miles and about a 50 minute drive, you'll hear Scouse in Huyton, Lancashire accent in Leigh, Manchester accent and then a Yorkshire accent in Huddersfield.
Glad you enjoyed Newcastle 🖤🤍🖤🤍🖤
Hi, is "white vest" the new JPS reaction uniform 😂
Let’s hope! 😂
Their all wearing them. Must be terribly warm. 😅
There are definitely more accents in the UK that you can look at, such as Essex or Estuary English,, The Shetland Islands, Jersey, and many more in the Midlands. Also its worth taking into account that your class and background will affect your accent as well. So someone from a posher area, perhaps predominately a white british part of London may speak very differently to someone who is from an area of London with a wider range of cultures and influences. Also the 'thickness' of an accent can vary person to person depending on there background and class system.
Missing out the Essex accent is a travesty!
This was hysterical. Loved watching you 3 guys laugh and Talk about all the Funny Accents in. Britain. I'm from Portsmouth UK, I'm a Southerner. But if I had to pick another Accent , it's Irish , Ireland , its such a Pretty language. 😀❤️❤️🌻
If you think about the uk from the south of England to the North of Scotland you can hear the gradient of accents change and are able to see how the history of the spoken accent changes as people start to move from north to south or sounth to the north through time. Were i live in the great Manchester area, uk you can travel 3 miles and the accent changes
I’m from Yorkshire and the accent is different in each city. For instance, Leeds is completely different to Wakefield as is York, Bradford and Sheffield.
I’m from Lancashire as is my other half , he was raised in another town in Lancashire just 15 miles from where I was raised and his accent is totally different , I also use words and phrases he has never heard before . The town I come from also has a dialect which isn’t understood by people living in the other side of town
I'm just a hair's breadth away from Lancashire, and within a 9 mile radius the accent is completely different! Bury to Salford for example is a stark difference.
You have a really good insight into our dialect, well done, im fucking impressed our kid 👌
Used to take the train from Taunton, Somerset South West to Leeds, West Yorkshire North. If you went to sleep and woke up you could figure out where you were just listening to conversations.
