I teach English learners how to do English accents every day. Not because you have to speak with an English accent if you want to be fluent, but because a lot of my learners just want to! So, in this video, I will be reacting to some amazing and some not-so-amazing English accents done by non-natives!

How in the world do you know all of these accents so well? I’m fascinated by your videos. I’m American and I don’t know all the American accents the way you know the British accents!
She's an English teacher and she's English
She has studied and you dont guy
Its a small island you see, from birth onwards we meet different accents daily in real life or on tv.
Its the beautiful thing about being British
Amazing video Laura. Thanks a lot!
Excellent analysis! Thank you, Laura
I'd give Depp credit for not taking the easy way out and doing a broad Devon or Cornwall accent for a pirate.
Thank you smashing english. This video immensely benefited to me.
So far this is the best english teacher i have come across on youtube.
Merrel Streep did marvelously as Margaret Thatcher.
This is a fun, enjoyable, and informative video. And you're a total Betty 😀
The english teacher I wish I had in Middle School and High School. Totally rad.
✨⭐️🇬🇧☺️
This is such a good video. Please do the northern accents in Game Of Thrones. I would love to know which characters use which accents. Thanks.
Great idea!!! ⭐️⭐️
Amazing I learned a lot
I didn't even know Johnny Depp is American!
very interesting thanks 🤗
Does anyone remember when Gillian Anderson used to (does she still do it?) switch between American and exaggerated RP, depending on where she was? Bizarre.
Wonderful lessons, Laura. Keep up the fine work!
Amazing
Great teacher!🎉
I love all your work, videos 📹, you were looking so funny 😆 focusing on how Anna was speaking and your face was red 🤗 when the actor was saying his war speech 💬 🤣 😉, love 💘 you ( Birmingham accent) .
Please, analyze the accent of Steve Harris of Iron Maiden. It´s very hard to understand him in the interviews.
He has a some sorta Cockney accent
Beautiful teacher 😍 & good video
great video, great lesson. Are you able to recommend someone with RP accent to learn from?
The best teacher or one of them.
Tour english is perfect, but your french is perfectible. I'm in an absolute opposite situation. I propose to exchange our strengh and weakness.
Eu gosto do sotaque do YUNGBLUD.
Eu amo ele, estou apaixonada.
I really want you to collaborate with 'Lucy' for once.. please 😊😊
I'd always thought it was odd that Renèè Zellweger said "boofet" - but so did Colin Firth so I assumed it was a northen quirk that southern Brits took on. As for Dick Van Dyke's awful 'Cockney' accent, that's how Americans sound when they try to imitate us Aussies. Absolutely terrible 🤣🤣
Buffet is a French word, so you drop the T, as in ballet, parket. Balay, parkay,buffay. Hope our teacher agrees. LOL 😂 😂
I thought the Aussie that you'll review was Chris Hemsworth's performance in the movie Rush, where he played as James Hunt, the 1976 F1 champion from the UK.
Thank you
I hardly ever see or hear my Accent, the Stoke on Trent accent covered in videos like this. To get an idea of the sound the most well known would be the singer Robbie Williams. There is also his mate Jonathon Wilkes and Lemmy Kilmister of Motorhead fame. I can also add Eddie Hall to that. There was a made for TV film made years ago filmed locally called "My Fragile Heart", which starred Sarah Lancashire, Eva Pope and a few other notables, but although a little bit of the local dialect was used in the script, there was little if any actual stoke accent spoken.
5:50 - "Dark Elle" is a great name for a pirate.
Thanks
Good accent explain. I think some of the movie accent as you mentioned can only appear in the movie, not in real life, isn’t? Of course the historical figures are true accent imitation.
They need you on film sets to sort out the yank actors English accents
I always thought Bette Davis was English, but had acquired an American accent. Apparently she was American and I liked her accent, it had a softer tone to it. 🤗
I read somewhere that many American actors in the 30s and 40s used this accent because the recording technology was primitive and words needed to be clearly enunciated. Don't know if it's true, but it makes sense.
It's dying-out now, but in the 20th century many actors were taught to speak in what some have called "Mid Atlantic". It was like a blend of English and American: lighter "R"s and "L"s. Slightly more nasal, "liquid" "U"s ("dyoo-tee" for duty, "nyoos" for news, etc). To many listeners it sounded English, but it was just considered the proper public speaking accent. It was an attempt at American English w/o any regionalism.
Interesting . ☺

Hello and thank you for you energy and commitment ! It’s so nice 🤩
I would be so happy if you made a video about driving vocabulary… just an💡 ! Thank you ☺️
18:10 🤣🤣🤣🤣
The thing to remember with Thatcher is that she took lessons to talk like that, it was deliberate. Part of her image makeover. You should listen to Thatcher herself, BEFORE she became leader of the Tories, much different. Meryll Streep just copied her image accent, maybe even went to the same coaches?
I guess it’s similar to the way Mexican actors are dubbed in Castilian Spanish. It’s not the real deal, but it’s a general approach.
Anyway, take in mind European English and Spanish accents are a minority although they are the original ones…
A few years ago, Dick Van Dyke's Jaguar caught fire, and fortunately, he escaped unharmed. I am still not convinced it wasn't an effort by MI5 and the behest of the Queen, who is still mad about his English accent in "Mary Poppins."
All the English accents I like and respect.Nevertheless,I prefer and like the British accent quite more than American.
Birmingham/London mash up accent = Brumney accent?
I would like to enseñarte español cuando quieras ♥...cheers love
Hello, Laura😊
I was searching for you in italki but I couldn’t find you.
May I ask are you still available on italki?
Thanks❤
But you HAVE TO understand ANY accent and in ANY quality (like, a phone call, with a noisy background, etc...) they deliberately play to you during the comprehension test... at least it used to be like that. This is so hard.
What's your favourite english books to improve fluency ?
What about English pirates with west country accent Johnny Depp/Jack sparrow?
Thank you Laura ! I always hated Johnny Depp's accent but wasn't able to figure out why ... until your explanations!
It was never meant to be a realistic accent...
I'm from the North West of England and we say, glass/grass/dance etc. Why do southerners say, glarss/grarss/darnce .? It seems odd to me. 😂
😊👍💙
Laura hits different
Maleficent's Received English accent.
You so cuite gorgeous I love you honey and your accent is so cuite beauty as an ángel walking on hearth
Please, i need indonesian subtittle. I like your videos, i learn through your channel🙏
If teaching English doesn’t work out you could take up acting. You would be good at it.
I believe the British will someday speak with American accent , not because it is American but because it is very simple, straight forward and neutral. The accent of no accent i mean. From the perspective of a non English speaker I find the American one more easy to speak and understand
From an English point of view, American English is far from neutral.
In fact, as far as English evolving into American is concerned, if anything American English is old-fashioned British English in sound, specifically it’s like a 17th Century Kent-ish English accent!
And I hope no such thing ever happens. American pop-"culture", mannerisms and irritating tendency to simplify everything have already had a significant impact on many world cultures and languages though (UK included unfortunately).
Personally, love English accents but find the American ones not in the least attractive.
@@Nata34Moscow Brits speak like they are chewing a gum while talking 😁
Why did you say,: l just spoke about and not l've just spoken about? It sounds like American grammar
I always found Peter Dinklage's accent in GoT to be the worst in recent memory, nearly ruining every scene he's in. I've not ever heard anyone analyze why it's so bad, but it typifies a terrible American attempt at something vaguely RP. He was so lauded for that role, but his accent is so obnoxiously bad, it just shows how most people are kind of accent/tone deaf.
You're focusing on England?
Try the Geordie, then. 😁
Cmon, let's challenge you a bit.
I do not like American English.!!!!!
