Pls pray for palestine❤😢
Northern ireland is not britain its uk, you should change title to uk to be correct
I can’t believe a teacher is saying haitch for aitch, there is not aitch in front of aitch.
Scottish accent is something else!❤
I’ve been learning a lot with your videos.
Thanks, Obrigada ☺️
You’re welcome!
As a Linguistics major at my university, I'm impressed with the IPA usage. Nicely done. Next video please include Essex, Manchester, and Ireland (even though it's another country). Greetings from Los Angeles!
Thanks mate! Had to keep it down to 10 otherwise the video would be 30 minutes long haha
You're really easy to understand, I don't even need the subtitles (despite my catastrophic English). Thank you
My accent is a canny mix between Geordie and Scottish, we usually don't have diphtongs in our speech. All accents are beautiful in their own way. Love your videos ❤
Thank you for today's video👍👍
WoW ! ❤
There’re more accents than I guessed !
Thank you 🙏🏻
Thank you for this tutorial. it's very useful for me. 💙💯
It's an amazing video, i got many benefits from your explaining, and actor Roby really did a great job 💗.. thank you Chris 🦋💗
I wish all of them pronounced your way, Teacher 👂🎧
You don't want to make an effort, do you?
yes please 😆😆😆👊🏼
Haha I know! Specially for the Cambridge advanced exams
I always wait for your English vlog teaching. I literally wanna tell that it's genuine fascinating. Preciate it.🙏🙏💙💙
Thank youuuuuu
Thank you for the great explanation
You’re welcome ☺️
Thank you.
I love British Accent , and I'm trying to speak English fluently 🙏🏼
So happy you included Geordie. I'm from Hebburn just south of the Tyne (although born in Durham city).
Can I bore you with some more details. No? Well, I'll do it anyway.
- Bairn is not said 'barn' the way you said it but 'bairn'. I'm told by some Scottish friends that we say it more than them now as they tend to say 'weens' more nowadays. We also say 'bonny' for nice, good looking, pleasant. And 'canny' means 'very good' rather than cunning as it can elsewhere.
- We pronounce the vowel sound in 'day', 'play', 'away' like the German eh in Mehl so we say 'mail' as /meːl/ not /meɪl/.
- We pronounce the vowel in 'go' and 'no' like the Nordic å. So we say 'go' as /goː/ not /ɡəʊ/.
- We have a thing called glottal reinforcement which means when you get a T, K or P sound between vowels (eg matter, pickle, happy) it's pronounced together with a glottal stop. The glottal stop doesn't replace the consonant, it's pronounced simultaneously. This is one of the most distinctive features of the dialect.
Finally, there are regional variations. The pronouncing of -er and -or at the end of a word as A is very common north of the Tyne and I associate it with Newcastle upon Tyne but less so south of the Tyne. I myself say these ending as -ə which is one of the ways you can tell I'm a south Tynesider.
Canny video, mind. Keep up the good work, bonny lad. And listen to some Sam Fender.
Love the comment! Thanks for such detail!
Enjoyed your comment from Gateshead 😊
I’m from the southern US, it’s pretty clear some of these accents had a lot of influence on the accents here. Particularly the Old South accent, you rarely hear anybody use it nowadays though.
I love that I need to learn English!
Come to Australia friend x
You are absolutely incredible!!!! What a great channel you have! I've jut found it today! I lived in London back in 1998/99! Thank you for sharing your knowledge and content. I'm a new subscriber from now on. Greetings from Brazil! Your accent is perfect for me! The BBC accent is so pure and clear! Which is Adele's accent? Cockney, I suppose! Sometimes it is hard to understand her!
Thanks for the support 💛
Amazing system thank you ❤
You’re welcome
9:07 Oh my gosh this accent is something. I just know it from somewhere a movie or a tv show.
The way you speak sounds so clear and beautiful. What accent are you speaking in? Very proper.
Thank you for this amazing and involving video! I would like to ask you what accent does Tom Ellis have. I think his English is quite "pure". Thank you very much in advance for your reply.
The best explanation,new experience for me,0brigado professor
Thank you!
Thank you for your videos! I’m learning a lot from them and the way you’re explaining complicated things is just brilliant. I have to regularly communicate with many people across the UK and Ireland for work, and that’s…complicated😅 no idea what my personal accent will be like influenced with Scottish, Irish, Cockney, Brummie and Northern mixture😂
ps after a year living in the UK, never heard anyone speaking RP here though😂
Haha yeah RP is hiding
great video, im gonna watch it again
Thanks
Great video!
Thank you, which other videos do you like from my page?
Very interesting and fun 😃 thank you teacher!!!
Extremely interesting, I would say. Some accents are kind of easy to understand but others...gosh! "RP" is what some of us call "standard English"? Amazing how people can still communicate with so many different accents.
After this video, I imagine listening to someone talking in a Yorkshire or Scottish accent and asking them too many times to repeat themselves to be perceived as appropriate. I would keep my eyes on their mouth without even a blink, too.
Well, I was exposed to the other ones more often so far, but now that I am this motivated by your video, and listening more carefully, even the two are not that incomprehensible. RP accent speaker here!
The more you expose yourself to other accents, the easier it will become 😊
Please Could you make a video a1 to b2
And connected speech a lot of examples thank you 😊
I would like to hear Bolton accent, if it possible. Thank you 🙏
Do you live there?
I am currently obsessed with David Tennant & Michael Sheen while I'm also a great fan of Louis Tomlinson so I'm trying to figure out what is different between the bbc accent, the doncaster accent and the scottish accent bc I can tell there is something different but I can't discover what it is on my own, also I've been trying SO HARD to have a decent british accent, so this is very very helpful, thank you
Michael Sheen is from Wales.
That was interesting. And thank you.
Im American, and from the pacific northwest, where generally i tend to think of our speech as lacking an accent. But I dont know if thats really true, or if what i consider to be a lack of accent is truly just a unique accent unto itself?
So I just wonder sometimes what the general perception is? Is what i consider a lack of an accent, just my own self-centered perception, or a regional accent? I dunno...
Two aunts and my mum from Liverpool can hold three conversations in tandem in fast forward. No-one would understand that. I couldn't.
Hello again:) i was in northen Irland in Place called Rasharkin and also in capital of west Irland Dublin it was Great there i was in 2012 :)
everyone always says west country sounds really strong like that, tbh, theres a twang in most places but its only really places like bristol where it's quite strong , the rest seem more watered down... (im from somerset)
ขอบคุณค่ะ❤
Thanks for acknowledging Scotland's linguistic diversity! ❤️ Everyone thinks we are al Glaswegian.
Recommending movies and shows was the best thing
Rp - the best of accents ❤
Essex accent is funny for me ,I would have liked you to talk about this accent.
Next time 😎
Greetings from Israel❤
A very helpful lesson😊
I've noticed sth; I undersand You very well, no matters THE speed of your speech.❤
Nice, but where is Essex one?
My accent is cockney and I luv it 😂
I´ve missed an accent I usually hear in a crochet channel called Bella Coco. She sounds like: Loop, she says "leeup".
Very good video, I want you to make me a video of the IPA
Sure!
Contemporary is also a Vyond Theme.
Pardon?
@@InstantEnglishUK yup
I had been "stooding" in Liverpool and the first time I heard Scouse I thought I had been teleported to Albania! 😂
You have to get used to it to love it. Now, when I hear a woman speaking Scouse I feel like Voltaire¹ *_I have no idea what you're saying, but I love you anyway!_* 😂❤
¹Voltaire was supposed to own the quote _I disagree with what you're saying, but I'll give my life for your right to say it!_
Hi in which british accent do we prononcé the t ”ts” please ? Apparently in none of the ones you are presenting here
Realized i have a Brummie accent although i'm not a native 😂
Great vid tho!
I’m in love ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Hii
I Love Your Voice❤️
Thank you so much! Have a great day
@@InstantEnglishUK You're always Wellcome
Have Nice Day To You too.
can somebody tell me the name of accent that king robert in game of thrones show speacks?
12:36 Finally my accent has made its appearance.
I'm wondering whether students are taught RP or regional accents in schools in the UK.
Normally RP
@@InstantEnglishUKlmao nah that's so wrong
People don't get taught their native accents at school 😆 that's not how it works, and we certainly don't get taught RP!
Only Tories learn RP in school.
Depends where the teachers from
If you wouldn't say that some of the accents were from England, I would them classify as American accent. 🤣🤣 Not pun intended.
By the way, Scottish accent is, at least for me, one of the most understandable ones from the video. But I prefer the RP accent, maybe due to having been educated as a child with this one (in order to learn English).
Thanks for the video! ❤
Merci beaucoup ! Très intéressant et très instructif ! Pour un Français, tous ces accents britanniques sont difficiles à reconnaître !
I decided to start watching this English-language channel to improve the pronunciation (and not only), since 2 months ago began to learn English. How do you feel about that?
PS: thanks to Reverso translator.
Glad to have you here
Yorkshire's "daughther" killed me because he souded like chooked for a while xD
I dont know, which one is my dads or mine but my dad said his one was not included in this video.
Ok 👌🏻
Teacher so handsome ❤
Hi ! I'm from Russia)I like to watch you videos. My dream is to speak English fluently^^)
Brilliant!
Unfortunately, Scotland is always marginated when it comes to accent comparisons. England is covered 50 miles up and down the country in detail but in Scotland or Ireland it's not that different. In all the videos on the topic Scottish is reduced to just one accent but Highland Scottish sounds very different to Glaswegian which again is very different to Aberdonian/Doric. And ,of course, Scots and Gaelic is one thing and local varieties of English another one but to be fair, you have pointed out that it's not the same everywhere. It would be good to show it more.
I think the acento for Brithgniham is the most popular around the World
My private tutor, Pamela Hargreaves, was from Croydon and she hated cockney. I live up north now I get mixed up with Croydon and West Yorkshire's accents, cuz people always say I have a posh accent and it's embarrassing. The only word with the letter T I tend not to pronounce is Britain. By the way, I am Brazilian and Portuguese is my mother almost forgotten language. Cheers
I hope you enjoy the north and don’t mind the weather haha
@@InstantEnglishUK I enjoy nature just the way it is. Cheers
4:08
Scouse is the dopest accent
Mother lover god! I’m study English and I so crying, because English it’s so hard !
I am Brazilian
Just curious What is your accett?
Sorry for my English
More RP than anything else as I have been a teacher for 9 years now. I grew up in the west country though
@@InstantEnglishUK thank you, you have a beautiful accent. To be honest I remember Sherlock for a brief moment.
훌륭합니다!
Korean?
@@InstantEnglishUK yes i am korean
Северный? @@user-ex7oz4xj1n
The further north, the more beautiful the accent
Bristol is a City and County in its own right. And it is always' and has always been West Country.
PS there are loads of different west country dialects, Bristol alone has two different dialects
To work with the italo american mafia which dialect is the correct.one?
You go' a bo'oh'o wa'ae
Ive heard the brumy from ren and everyone comments about peaky blinders. What is that? A band a movie? Idk haha
give it a google mate
it makes sense why the west country accent sounds like the american one - weren’t they the ones who settled in the south of america ?
What portuguese accent do you have?
Well, I’ve only just started so maybe a non-native one haha
And then you have an accent like mine (and like sooo many people), a non English speaker who has learnt English from many different movies, series, people, trips, living in different places, and you end up having a "Frankenstein" accent, a mix of American, British RP, Cockney, Irish and your own, even in one single sentence.
I like Welsh and West most of all, this accents sound more logical to me
Bairn isn't pronounced 'barn' it's pronounced 'bear-n'
Hi, just a wave to you from here in the North West of the country, you seemed to of missed. 😄We mostly speak with an accent called LANCASHIRE, & a few others variants like Mancunian, Cumbric, Boltonian, & Wiganer...🎭
I’ll have to save it for the next video 😁
¿Y el acento de Manchester?
Hi
Alright mate
The welsh Is the best and has even been voted the best
I thought Bairn was more like bear-ne and not barn.?!
I have only heard it as I said in the video, however, it’s possible there could be other ways of saying it
@@InstantEnglishUK No, it's pronounced 'bairn' not 'barn'. See my post above or below. It is related to the Norwegian/Swedish/Danish world 'barn' which means child and which is pronounced the way you said it. Great video though.
I want queen accent.
👏👏👏
😎
Intermediate English learner visits this video 🙃
he must be overconfident while he still has the Middle-East accent.
Once I heard the Cockney accent was actually a dialect. Of course, the person who told me it was a neat freak.
What is your accent Professor?
South West England
Rp accent ❤
say whatttt
i have a cockney british accent? since whenn
I was born and live in..east london
Since when was I born in east london?* yeah like I said in the video you will hear it all over London and also it’s not the only accent in London
@@InstantEnglishUK I was born in East London tho and I live there
@@InstantEnglishUK my dad said I don't have a cockney British accent..
I love the diversity of accents that you can hear in Harry Potter movies
Getting pass in my colleage exam is eassy than understand british accent
Haha so true
I am learning English and I understood almost all the accents. But the cockney accent is impossible for me🥲 2:10
If it were not subtitled, I would definitely not understand anything😭
Brummie sounds like Australian english doesn’t it?
1. Stuttering posh accent 2. Eastender Actors' accent 3. Pirate English (5% of today's West Country I'd say, very rural) 4. Show some examples otherwise they'll search for famous people from Birmingham and they find Ozzy Osborne and Richard Hammond. Anyway good job but I'm not sure it'll help them until they've lived and travelled in the uk
I have russian accent and my colleges probably have Western country
yorkshire is unreal
Boris johnson is easy just get drunk 🤣
