This is a clear lovely accent easy to understand for me and most normal answers I've heard. But then when you say remote it's so unique to Wales, love that :-)
I'm addicted to it ! I love it so much! With loads of ice!
I didn't realize Wales had such a different accent. Thanks for sharing. Love it!
Wooo :D The first Newport accent on youtube!! I miss that accent so much (I've been living in tunisia for the past 5 years) Haha
I just really like the way you say "water." :) Wonderful voice/accent!
haha You had me Lolling, this was brilliant, i love your responses, i might have to have a go !
My grandma is Welsh and I have visited it there. I loved it so much!!! You are also so cute and funny!
Not only is the accent cool but I love all the different slang words/phrases from wales.
My nana is 100% welsh so I was so excited to hear your accent!:)
Aww thanks! :3
Not everyone in Newport speaks Welsh, but I'm just one of the lucky ones who got sent to a Welsh school :) I'm glad I did. Haha, my grandad is the same!
I loved when you said "Theater, Water and Sure". Those words sound sooo beautiful with your accent. By the way, you're a very pretty girl:) Greetings from Paraguay!!!
Such a cute SMILEE!!!!!! :)
YAY!
Either way I'm jealous and I think I need to take a visit to south Wales I love your bloody accents!! X
In American we'd say "lmao! man that's funny as hell!" You brits are so proper lol
I love the accent!!! Very nice. I was very exited to see a Welsh accent here ( I plan to move to Colwyn Bay some time =^.^= ).
I definately LOVE listening to different English accents! :)
Great stuff..!
I'll be sure to check it out :)
Nice, Thanks for sharing
YAYAY! :D
I like it! My friend just left for a semester in wales! I feel like id be so far out of place there!
A good one! Kind of a mix of various UK accents (to my ears anyway). The grocery cart? I usually refer to it as "wheely cart." Sometimes buggy. And yes, I received stares before when saying buggy. I'm American midwest born.
You have an awsome voice and accent !!! you are a beautiful young lady :)
Hahah, aww that's so sweet!
Cool accent and think you bring a lot of personality to the camera. Nice job.
BeefyBeef what a great name! your welcome. btw i talked to the chic from cheltenham today for the first time and it was awesome. i cant wait to hear back from her. Take care.
"I'm not entirely sure why you'd want to throw a toilet roll at someone's house" :)
Ahhh thank you. Yes I do speak welsh, fluently :)! And in North Wales/Mid Wales is where the most welsh is spoken! hahah
in the south they call em buggy's but ya for the areas of america that still have teeth they call it a shopping kart. or kart
Nice to hear a Welsh accent!
Thank you! : )
Yay for rolling!!!!
Ahhhh thank you hahaha! I really do, it's weird! I'll check it out! :P & thanks a lot! :D
yeah I do I live in Merthyr xx
Aww thank you so much! :-)
Hahaha, thank you!
Awwwh, haha, thanks! : )
yeh im from barry and it has simler accent to cardiff..in the 18th century alot of english people moved to the area mostly scousers and people from mid England..mostly cos of the docks and work shite
It is close to Cardiff, about 12 miles or so.
Yes, I do think that people from Cardiff have a slightly different accent. I speak fluent Welsh, so I personally don't think the English media has influenced me.
We call it (North Carolina in the US of A) T.P.-ing when you throw toilet paper on a house and people do it if they made you mad or you just don't like them. It is very prominent on Halloween.
Went to see the Rob Brydon show live not so long ago, he's hilarious !
yay : ) thanks haha!
You're cute! The Welsh accent is very interesting! :)
this video made me laugh so much, ''i have no idea where they got that from, i call it a remote'' haha! i'm from south wales but my accent isnt strong:/
All these tags i watched a lot of peeps dont what t-ping is and when it rains while the sun is shining its called a Sunny Storm thays what i call it lol
It was my first video, I was a little nervous!
Here in Michigan it is either a buggie or shopping cart
Ohhh :)
Hahaha, yeah I do that sometimes! Hope you could still understand?!
Very nice video
I would love to hear you do your british accent! oh wait.... never mind xD
I'm italian and I like your accent.
Which part of Wales are you from? I'm just wondering because on the tour of Britain that I went on last summer the guide told us that in Eastern Wales, particularly Cardiff, the Welsh accents are not nearly as pronounced as further west
Im Canadian, and my cousins all live in Newport... closing my eyes, you sound just like them haha x
You are exactly like my with the 'auntie/aunt' thing, I never call anyone 'Aunt ...' and the same with the 'salmon' thing, haha! (I'm from Australia by the way)
A trolley?! LOL. I never heard that before. I think everyone in the States calls it a shopping cart or a push cart. A trolley is a small, urban passenger train, also called a streetcar, though the word trolly is generally considered an old fashioned term for it or used to refer specifically to the old-fashioned variety of streetcar.
oh man, welsh is beautiful!
I like it
Many thanks for that, Bethan. Interestingly, you sound much more Gloucestershire than Welsh to me, to be honest. :-)
If I had to guess, I'd say you were almost certainly from SE Wales, and not far from the border -- the Newport area perhaps?
Some of the Accent Tag questions do sound a bit daft, though, don't they? Who on earth throws toilet paper at houses? (Must be an American thing!)
very nice accent, i can hear lots of a bristol accent in your voice do you have links with bristol also?, thats if you don't mind me asking :D
Haha, it depends where in Wales too, we all have different accents! :P
In New Zealand: Gym Shoes = Sneakers or Sandshoes.
Shopping device = Trolley.
Grandparents = Nanna and Poppa or Grandma and Grandad.
Bug that curls = Woodlice or Slater.
Bubbly drink = Soft Drink or Fizzy drink.
Addressing a group of people = Hi you guys (which I hate cause guy should be male).
Spider = Daddy Long Legs.
Rainfall while sunny = Sun Shower.
Change TV with = Remote control or Remote (my friend says Doofernacker).
Anyone else wanna let us know their answers?
Haha. "I call it trolly. Nothing else to call it really." In the US we call them, "shopping carts." Trollies for us are sort of a hybrid between a bus and train. They only really exist in some parts of California now adays.
Thank youuu! :$
Your accent to me (an American) sounds like a very mild English accent with only a few subtle differences. It's cute as are you :)
Aww thank you! hahaha :-)
I shall! :)
Hi! I'm from (Colorado, California, and North Carolina), and partly of Welsh ancestry by the way -- though you're one the first people I've actually heard speaking a Welsh accent. Actually the first Welsh folk I met were at a bar here in Kraków and I could barely make out any words. That was disheartening, but I can understand you perfectly. So anyway, I call them rolly-pollies too and learned that from my parents. And your 'trolley' is my 'shopping cart'. Other than that, quite the same. Greets
eich merch yn ddiddorol !!!!!!! fi hefyd yn caru chi
I'm from the South :) Yess there's a huge difference, my accent is different to a Cardiff accent, it's weird haha!
its next to england
Hahaha, I know now :P All we used to do is throw wet toilet paper on the roof is the girls toilets haha!
Ever been to Shrewsbury? That is where my family is from
actor Michael Sheen is from Newport : )
I call a "Tollie" a Buggie. and a remote a clicker xD
So is that : "yay for rolling" as the acceptable form of speech to describe said act versus the usage of TPing, or is that "I"m a vandal I approve of TPing"??
In Wales do you pronounce Rs when speaking English? I know that the Rs are pronounced in Welsh.
I speak Welsh, I went to a welsh school, but there's only one other person in my family who speaks it, so it's quite hard to keep it up!
I'm from the South! :-) Newport ? If you've heard of it haha!
Oh, what a strong accent! Well, not... strong as in thick, but strong as in firm? Though maybe that's more your voice than accent... in any case, it's gorgeous!
I don't think I've ever been there, I've driven past there though, I think!
Both are accepted
I'm from Indiana. When it rains when the sun is shinning we say "The Devil is beating his wife".
i think the accent has probably changed in the last 200 years.
Nice video. Are you from the north or south? I heard there's a difference, like between Cardiff and Wrexham. Is there much of a difference?
tping is also called house rolling. not to be confused with taking mdma. totally different. lol
Nooo you wouldn't !! You'd be fine, you should do it :)
im australian and we say trolley aswell. americans call it a cart
Oh my....
I Love being welsh! haha
im also from Newport!!!
I like it but what is "erm" in between? is it like "um"?
Ur accent is exactly like mine!!! Are you from the pontypool area
I'm from South Wales Cardiff
The "Trolly" in American also goes by the name
You have a nice accent, and you are a lovely young lady.
@Bethan Parr I've been wanting to hear what the Welsh accent sounded like. I just thought to go on TH-cam... Can you speak Cymraeg?
Yeah, some people have actually called me english! :S haha! She's gorgeous too!
Wales is part of the UK. Mexico and Canada have their own completely separate governments, and are separated by several thousand miles. Less hubris, more truth.
