When the Massachusetts girl said “hsidhfbisjdvfhsjsbisjhfbrujahfhfjd quateah foah some chowdah” I felt that
Braxton Collett park the car in Harvard yard and the guy a quarter for some chowder
She went dkeiwodkeodfowprkfoffftt chowdah
Lmao only a small amount of people in Massachusetts sound like that
You gotta park the car in Harvard Yard and give the guy a quarter for some chowder. It's a Southie accent (not South End).
Braxton Collett 😂😂😂
As a foreigner, I can pretty much only hear 2 accents:
Southern and not southern
That's all I hear and I am american.
Where I live in the U.S., there's a lot of accents so I'm pretty keen on it
XxDepthsOfShadowsxX there’s plains,southern,northern,north east accents
Yeah pretty much
Moonlit Waters Me too
"I definitely notice it when I'm travelling" That's the Jersey way of saying "Our accent comes out when we swear"
i dont notice it until people call me out after saying things like coffee, dog, walk😭
Jersey here lol. Coffee. Dog and drawer.
@@SmokinSesh yup drawer too! lol no matter how hard i try it always just comes out like "draw"
@@beccaesten7709 I’m so glad it’s not just my family hahahahaha. It’s a draw to me too.
My aunt swears a lot and she does it in her jersey accent 😂
saying that you don't have an accent is like saying that this comment doesn't have a font.
Oh I like that comparison
I see no font here.
@@Exayeviesigh.
@@coledeko I'm just saying, it's a way less compelling argument than he thinks it is when you look at these letters. Honestly, it demonstrates what the "i don't have an accent" crowd means really well, technicalities aside.
@@coledekoPeople who say/think they don’t have an accent are saying that because their accent sounds “normal” to them. They don’t think about their way of speaking as an accent, even though it is. The font comparison is similar because yeah it’s obviously a font, but it’s a very basic font that we’re all used to seeing so it doesn’t feel like a font, if you get what I mean.
50%: we dont really have an accent
Other 50%: yEe HaW
Edgyboi117 is that a tally hall pfp i see or no?
@@dollartreejadenyuki6046 yes
Tally hallll
Hahahha 😂
It’s literally 50% 50% in Maryland depending on where
This is literally a bunch of people who have intentionally lost their accent and are now trying to imitate it.
And after a while in Ohio especially you lose you’re accent often when u grow up too I couldn’t tell with her
Maybe it's because they took a bunch of metropolitan liberal millennials to do this video.
kledo5778 mmmmmmmmmm I don’t know
@@trishalennex4630 Well, I think you can tell. I mean, you can see the age. None of them look like they're poor, they look pretty middle-class. Also, some of them are even wearing political (democratic) shirts. I think it's pretty obvious they didn't interview random people.
kledo5778 okay so yes maybe that but what I meant was that millennials would probably still have their accent, I’m assuming a lot of these people have lived out of the state for a while and have faded their accent
As a British person, I find it difficult to distinguish subtle differences between states. I think I could correctly identify a Californian, New York, Southern and Appalachian accent.
tbh if you heard it the dialect in real life you would FOR SURE hear it
@@ayin_northstandard southern British is not a thing
Not hawaiian?
honestly americans do the same thing with british accents i know theres a few but they all sound the same to me whereas i can hear different american ones since ive lived here my whole life yk
Yeah it's definately not the same stark variations like there is in the UK where you go 20 miles up the road and everyone speaks different.
One of the things about Texas is that depending on where you are, you have a different accent. Like where I live, the accent is very Latino-based. A lot of words have Spanish pronunciations.
Where I live we don't really have an accent until we pronounce certain words. Sometimes I'll accidentally slip into a more Southern accent for no reason.
@BrewsBrownies neat...yea I don't really have an accent either but more the phraseology that I use is what sets me apart. Like I'll just use a Spanish phrase for certain situations
For me I live in Texas, and I would say I have a Mexican and southern accent that come out with different words
@Luigi_Luigington no but the Texas version of it is. There's a difference between every version of it in every culture it's used in.
@@fatdinosaur6845Yep, absolutely, same here. I say things like “Winda” for “Window”, I say stuff with i’s real long like line or wide with more of an A sound. I roll the R and say ‘tortilla’ real fast and sharp though.
Texas woman sounds like she's about to burst into tears
Her beta t shirt says it all
@@pascho1057BAHAHAHAHA
2:26 you lost me at "you gotta park the car"
Hey bro, I took the pic in your profile photo.
She sounds like Sadness in Inside out
Half of them: "I don't really have an accent"
Other half: "HEY YALL!"
Zakaaar Offnanyan I thought they came across that way though, Middle American vs Southern. That was cute.
Zakaaar Offnanyan Nah Nah nahhh north east and west America: u think we sound pretty normal
South: HEY YALLLLL WHAT YALLL DOIN TONIGHTTT???? the south already knows lol
Addi Wright yup 😂🤣
SCOTT HERE
@@Johnny_64 dude i appreciate your scott the woz reference
Tennessee’s accent is so adorable 🥺 I can also listen to the missouri accents all day it’s so nice
As a Missourian, i found this comment nice😌
As a Missourian too, we have a lot of different accents based on where you go but they’re all very smooth and calm in a way :)
We definitely draw out our “R’s” , “A’s” and “O’s” more in the Midwest. I’ve also noticed we tend to really stress the “ar” and “er” sound at the end of a word almost to the point of sounding Gaelic, at least in Minnesota. “Car” often sounds like “caer.”
only toward wisconsin, minnesota, and the dakotas though. toward michigan and illinois and whatnot that is not typical
Most of the MN accent is German and Norwegian with some Swedish and some farm lingo thrown in. Farmers have the most Minnesota accent of all.
Can agree
The thing with Illinois is that there’s the Chicago accent, the Chicagoland accent, and the downstate accent. All different
All of them: “I don’t have an accent”
Alabamians (me): I ain't got no accent
Mass though was just: "Here is the Boston accent you all thought of when you clicked this video."
Michiganders don't have an accent
To be fair, most of them were right! We tend to go for the "General American accent" when speaking to strangers, presenting, etc.
I think by "I don't have an accent" they mean "I speak with a standard American English accent". If you sound like people usually do on national news broadcasts or in American shows, I think that's fair to say. Everyone has an accent, of course.
Favorite moment: "People in California have like... They say 'like'."
Each state deserves its own video
@@raynarounds8957 Exactly. California got skipped over and I kept waiting for it to come back to be elaborated on but it never happened. T^T
I'm very guilty of saying that a lot and also awesome or dude
We're really nasal in our voice, our a's we hide in our noses
We also do vocal fry more often than other place
'All right'
Some vocal fry in the 'a' & 'i'
I'm working on voice training & north Carolina female singer of the Band "Squirrel nut zippers" whom sang 'winter weather' has a goal voice
Its cool we individuality taylor our vocal Communication in accents!
@@denesetler I mean, we kinda like . . . Do that
It's funny
One of the big challenges is accents aren't staying the same *at all* in many places.
Take California, for example. Most people who live there were born on the other side of the Rockies, or in another country entirely. So the accent that results is a mix of many, many different accents and it's taking an entire generation to solidify into something new!
The Utah girl only say “Wanna go skiing in the moun’ains” is spot on. That is the extend of the accent. But I have heard a lot of older people say things like “Thursdie”.
yes all of us Texas people sound like we’re going to cry each sentence
Can confirm lmao
Does beyonce sound like that. I think so but I'm not sure 🤔
LMAO
Ah yes. Maybe just because I may or may not be sad 90% of the time but most of the time I speak... how i speak
I’m am very guilty of saying oyl instead of oil
literally everyone: we don't really have an accent
I think when people say that, they mean they believe they have what they consider to be the "standard American accent". I'm guilty of it myself. I've said that before because I felt mines wasn't attached to a certain area or region.
Even when people say they have a certain accent, I find it kind of hard to notice. The differences throughout the entire country is pretty subtle to me besides certain ones that are thicker than most like the stereotypical NY or Southern accent.
And I know what they meant when they said we don’t have an accent I was just Quoting them lmao
they don't know what accent means lmao
Basically, they all sound the same (maybe southern accent can be distinctive..) compared to the accent differences in Britain.. cockney, scouse .. they all crazy ..
Title should have been "50 People claim they don't have accents"
I like that the North Dakota girl stood up a straight as possible, that's part of the accent.
I'm Brazilian and I've been living in the US for almost two years. Today I was curious to know if there are also different accents here and I came to research, I heard all the people talking and for me it's all the same 😂 omg
The Masachussets and Maine accents sound complex
It's because you have to listen closely lol! And also, yes, some of them sound normal, but different states use different words and phrases!
Your hearing is shot.
It's all the same but americans try so hard to feel special that they think the smallest difference in accent is some sort of big "quirk" that they have to flaunt and be proud of lol. That's what happens when you're a monolingual loser.
@@alejandropower those two are similar for sure. I mean Boston is its own thing though.
Me, German, listening to this: So basically there's normal, southern, and straight up unintelligible. Gotcha.
Which one is unintelligible? The New York/Boston one?
@@poopfart65 Uhh I think mainly that one, yes
Es ist besser nur ein Paar Akzenten haben, als verschiedene Dialekten, die voneinander total unverständlich sind, wie in Deutschland.
Floridian here. it's a normal speaking state with some southerners and then of course half the state is Hispanics
@@hwfq34fajw9foiffawdiufhuaiwfhw what's the difference between General and California and northwest?
With all due respect, you should have put older people, at least 55+, who still speak in their states' original accents.
Agree. That would be way better
I agree but the NY guy was 👌
All due respect, there's no such thing as "original accents"
@@joeyedmond6587 Correct, but some of the States' accents are lost with increased inter-connection. For example here in the UK where I live, in the 1950s many people in parts of the country spoke in more regional accents, with certain phrases and forms of grammar dating back to Middle English, but not used in Standard English. I read a story of a child during WWII who left London during the Blitz, to a small town in Northern England, and heard completely unique forms of pronunciation and grammar, which were leftovers of the more complex grammar structure English had in the past. When he visited the town again a few years ago, he couldn't find anybody who spoke like they used to.
texas was fairly spot on for women with texas you have to have a girl and a guy we speak very different to each other.
I love how none of these people had the accent they were talking about
Oh Jersey definitely has an accent 😂 that guy just hasn't realized it yet I guess 🤣
The Texas girl sounds like she is on the verge of tears
For real
She was just mocking the Texas accent but did it badly.
Cause she was forced to wear a Beto shirt
she got dem hips tho
She was probably trying to play it cool but her nervousness was showing through.
“California like- we say Like”
Accurate
Heh
We should get another word to say at some point though
We do say that too much
Devin..?
Fun fact, we do that in Ireland too, put a like on the end of everything
The Massachusetts one. Perfect. The classic phrase. A single sentence! No introduction needed! “We gotta park the car in harvard yard and give the guard a quarta for some chowda”
We gutta pahk the cah in Harvid yahd and give the gahhd a quarta fa sum chowda
Linguistically speaking, one cannot say that any given state has an accent. Very often it breaks down into socio-economic factors and regional differences more than differences in states.
Yeah, I'd say there's definitely a different accent for rural Oregon than there is for the cities. Once you get out past the suburbs it gets real hick, real quick.
Half the “accents” they promised us were just “oh we don’t have an accent...”
@LAUGHING KIDD Yah. Nevada has like a more chill, laid back kinda thing. But still energized. It is also very lispy. So the s’ sound like c’s and we hold onto the s a bit longer.
LAUGHING KIDD Oregon is just like "what's an accent" we all just chill Americans that miss the beach XD
@@camarodriver6475 LMFAO in Oregon all we care about is smoking our trees, and brewing our beer 😂🤷🏼♂️
Arizona is straight on, non accent. Maybe a few people have native american or slightly southern accents.
Northeast Indiana - "warsh" [wash], "torlet" [toilet], "maysure" [measure], "ruff' [roof], "rut" [root], pop [soda]
i promise us texans don’t sound like we bouta cry all the time
Are you sure you don't sound like you're having a panic attack?
I thought it sounded like talking through a fan for a bit
Right I sound nothing like that and not everything is cowboy or cowgirl and not everywere is a desert
I can hear the crying through your comment
Her voice is so shaky
Connecticut dropped the ball. Depending on which part of the state you live in, you either get part of a Boston accent or you get part of a New Yorker accent, it's inevitable. If you're central CT, well then you get a mix of both
no, not at all. we’re pretty neutral
Eh not really. I don’t hear the Boston accent much where I am and I’m pretty much as close to Boston as you can be in CT
I grew up in Illinois and can tell you that there are kind of 3 distinct accents I've heard here: The famous Chicago accent, which kind of sounds like a watered down version of the Wisconsin guy's accent but which sometimes uses "d" in place of "th" sounds; the more country accent that sounds kind of like the Tennessee girl when you get to the southern or more rural parts of the state; and what I like to call the "Suburban" accent, which is a very light version of the Chicago accent.
Finally someone else who noticed. Also, the Chicagoland accent (suburbs) can replace th with d too. Just depends on the person
The Texas girl sounds like she was being held at gunpoint behind the camera.
That’s because she is
Ha
A Texan with a beto shirt? Probably was held at gunpoint with a fully semi auto with a .30 caliber clip

Lol didn’t expect you here! Snd yeah lol
Hi
Wait hold up, u came
Whoa. David. Still slinging brutal truth.
Wut are you doing here?
The most stereotypically American thing about the video is that half of them are saying “I don’t have an accent” or “we don’t have an accent” as if you can speak a language out loud without one. That’s like saying “I don’t have eyes” while making eye contact with somebody
Grew up in three different heavy accent states, Texas, Georgia, and Florida. My accent is a typical midwestern accent with a pinch of southern spice. Sometimes it comes out, sometimes it doesn't. I have to fight the "fair to midland" phrase sometimes.
*”Well, California has like a... we say “Like”, like a lot.”*
Sadly true.
Honestly that's kindof everywhere in the US though...
Soooo true. A lot of us have valley girl accents too
Like foreals
When I lived in California I picked that up and when I moved to Illinois every one pointed it out 🙄
@@sweetpotato3427 I've lived in california all my life except now I live in Texas. Does that mean I'm gonna pick up a Texas accent?

That's the stage fright accent.

*Happy Texan noises*
We do NOT sound like that. Unless we have severe stage fright.
She just seemed a bit afraid
The Chicago one had me on the floor 'cause I realized I sound exactly like that HAHAHAHAHA
If you people come to Colombia, you will find many accents, so different as mexican and argentinean are.
Our accents are: Rolo, Paisa, Costeño, Nariñense... the other accents are not easy to differentiate when you're a foreigner, but the other could be grouped as standard, pacific accent and indigenous accent.

Lies again? Samsung Ericsson
In croatia, we don't understand people who live 100 km away
Yeahh, most likely since the US is so much younger than GB, which existed for hundreds of years even before ppl started moving around much. In comparison, more than half of the US isn't even 200yrs old. And in that time there was a lot of movement so there was never the chance much for distinguished dialects to pop up like back in Britain

Eh idk. These are pretty accurate for the not-so-accented... accents. But also would know the thicker-accented people by association.
Seriously, I live in a Ohio and we are surrounded by so many accents. Northern Ohio “My MAm” hard As. Middle Ohio sounds like a standard news caster, Southern Ohio twangs, and rural Ohio accents that are different than southern. Above is Michigan with the lakes accent, and below is northern KY with a faster speaking twangy sound than the rest of KY.

Never heard that "typical" Wisconsin accent except in a movie. I have lived here 58 years in Green Bay and Madison. I have went 'up north' many times. My grandmother had a germanish accent as a child of immigrants, but that is it.

People in Southern Indiana most definitely have an accent lol. My BFF was born and raised in Southern Indiana. Most small Indiana towns have a Southern accent. I was born and raised in Iowa. Same thing, the further south you go in Iowa to small towns, the more of a Southern/"Mizzourah" (Missouri) accent they have.
I think that's interesting because in northern Missouri I don't hear much of the accent but as soon as I get a little further south I feel like I'm in the deep south.

... not realizing that every single person on Earth (who talks) has an accent...
You can say many things about it (that it is not distinct, or not particular to a state or a region, or I dunno what), but you can't not have it.
The amount of them saying so was outrageous, these people didn't know what they were talking about. The New Jersey guy saying they had no accent, I could not disagree more.
We do have an accent in Arizona. In Tucson and small towns it sounds like we were raised by people who's parents were raised with Spanish but never spoke it themselves. A dirty Spanglish is the only way I can describe it lmao

@@viceb7 she was singing or something
The notion of "accent" implies intonation to a flat note. If you speak according to the way the English language is taught, it gives you pronunciations that are not inflected. This is what we call non-accented / non-slang speech. Yes, everyone has their own unique voice, but not everyone has an added intonation upon the English language.
Canadian here (east coast, Nova Scotia) we say bag (with an egg) also. Just like our Wisconsin, North Dakota and Montana. I teach English in Japan so you can identify the kids I used to teach...they say it the same way. (= I tried to change it...didn't stick. Also, car is similar also. I guess Nova Scotia has a slight Wisconsin accent ;)
This video needs more linguists and old people who actually have the accents.
This!!
Yeah
exactly kids don't really have accents due to people moving around since the old days and the internet being able to talk to people around the world

as someone born and raised in LA( the hollywood LA) I;ve heard every state's accent here and most of the people who say they don't feel like they have one really are the middle of the road in accent but the vernacular is how you tell them apart.
