Since many people have been commenting this, I think I should point out that it's true there are many British accents. In fact, there is no such thing as one British accent. As I said in the video, everyone has their own accent and no two voices and ways of speaking are the same. "British" is a convenient label for grouping the accents of people within Britain and there are similarities between a lot of the accents here. The rules I mention in this video don't apply to all the accents in the UK, particularly in places like Scotland where it can have very different rules.
Remember these are just general tips for those of you who want to sound more natural - whatever that means to you - and "British" is just a label. A video titled "How to get Michael's accent" would be a lot less interesting!
In short, focus on your pronunciation in English and be proud of your own accent, whatever that may be.
This video is made for many of you out there who have heard the accents of Harry Potter and more and want to learn more about it.
Thanks for watching and reading!

Q:How to get an British accent?
A: Become a Directioner.
Watch and Listen to One Direction

SAME najenwisjw
Learned from klaus mikaelson And Hardin Scott🧏🏽♀️
I LOVE THIS GUY 😭 I love how clearly, and slowly he speaks, and what a lovely person he seems to be! :) ❤
🤩
yes same as me as well
I learned most of British accent in less in a couple years watching Harry Potter. conclusion: If your heart wants to learn it or find it fun or fascinating ,you'll learn it easily. for me, I don't even live in a "English speaking" country ,people here struggles in English a lot here. But for me I simply was amazed by this accent and didn't have any intention to learn but later I find out, I build up one in me!
Step one : be British
Check
Lol, no. You can still not be British but speak with it.
I met some British kids who speak American accents because they watch too many American cartoons/movies and American youtubers.

"No one has perfect british accent."
Louis Tomlinson: Hold my runnin wotah.
“Fanks love”
lol this made me chuckle... wotah ... pretty British with Spice.
LMAOO
LMFAO
anyone hear running wotah?
I don't naturally have a British accent but I learned and perfected it by reading harry potter books because I had to figure out exactly how they talked/sounded and I learned it myself while reading, so now I have a very believable British accent 😅
wait how could u learn the accent by reading books
@@giamy5614 Because I had to perfect the accents in my head and there are 7 books so I eventually got used to it lol
@@FreddieYouGoodEditz that's... that's cool wtf
Wait what. From..reading..?
Im Pole and I do love british accent but is very difficult for me because in Polish we pronounce almost every single letter very strongly (comparing to english) in every word but your video helped me out a bit. Thanks!

Also Brits: a Bo'oh o' wo'er please
Thanks you so much for providing this opportunity. It has been very long time that I'd liked to learn British accent as a student and I found it useful for my future job. After watching your video, I could say that I am feeling more confident and comfortable. Because I've tried hard to make my accent to be similar to British people. I look forward for your videos. Best of luck.

Q: How to get an British Accent?
A : Watch Louis Tomlinson, Harry Potter, and Bridgerton
That's perfect! My books will be helpful for learning Russian and English. I published Transliterated russian dictionary with English translation. Compound words dictionary separated by tables. All details on my channel. Red velvet and Vanilla Gelato. Exercises for an interpreter. And also two copies of these books, where Russian words have given in Cyrillic.
And Tom Holland
This is the best accent to have in a argument
OMG I'm gonna cry :") because english isn't my first language (as you can see, the most probably I'm going to make a lot of mistakes) my first language is spanish and knowing I could understand you is very encouraging for me. Thank you very much.
I'm actually learning British accent just for the fun of it and that's all
well the bri_ish accent got some humour ey?
@@pikamonketchumlol1237 🤭
I learn the accent because it sounds better than the American one
@@_McCormickProductions it sure better than America accent
It's funny how this is in the recommendations on my One Direction account
I mean, of course it's related, but not in a way I thought TH-cam would recognize
I just love that kind of accent, so sophisticated😁
Thank you for the lesson brother
I really love how everyone is talking about Louis Tomlinson and one direction.😂
Everyone is talking about Louis, and I’m here for it.
That was so helpful, thank you

Yah this is the problem with it, from it I can presume their southern England but up here in the North 'T' is hardly pronounced at all, like your example there
Me: British, has a British accent

I have an emotional need to learn this... I have some friends who can just do the accent easily, and they often just start speaking in the accent and using british slang for a comedic effect whenever a moment arises-- I'd love to be able to join them one day, its so much fun even just listening to them talk like that, calling each other bruv or twat or something.
