    The average American guy's a sucker for a cute girl with a British accent. But how many can discern the difference between a lady from London and from, say, Glasgow or Manchester? After Lily Allen's Complex photo shoot, the "Sheezus" singer demonstrated how to distinguish between your Londoners and your Mancunians. Relax and take notes.

    Out of all of her accent attempts, her London one was by far the best- (probably 'cos it's natural! Ha-ha!)

    • @StarWarsJay

      You think she’s a cockney? She went to posh private schools.

      Maybe but the accents across America aren't that different compared to the accents across Britain which most Americans can not understand

      A New York Accent is completely different from a person from Alabama or Minnesota. A Boston accent sounds completely different from the generic american accent. Bostonians drop their Rs while other american have rhotic accents pronouncing their Rs. New Yorkers drop their Rs too. I'm a New Yorker myself living in Brooklyn and we have heavy accents. We pronounce dog,thought,over,here, and car as dawg,thawght,ova,heah,and cah.

    • @Fan_Made_Videos
      @Fan_Made_Videos 7 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      American accents are VERY different. A person from rural West Virginia sounds nothing like a person from rural Maine, and you wouldn't understand someone from Appalachia as well as someone from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania even though both places are relatively close to each other.

    • @yusufgta4341
      @yusufgta4341 7 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      You have Appalachian accent,Texan accent,old southern accent,Midwest accent,Valley accent,country accent,western accent,New York accent,New England accent,Boston Accent,Baltimore accent,and Creole Louisiana accent.

    @bascet1 7 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    She doesn't even have a regional accent. Liverpudlian and Mancunian derive from Irish. She doesn't have a London accent she has a posh public school accent.

  • @littlepuppet34

    I'm from Birmingham and I say Birmingham, I think that 'burminam' thing is a myth. Well I haven't heard anyone speaking like that

  • @alexandeon

    Liverpool accent, isn't it Scouse? It's quite different actually from other accents.

  • @sarahdanielle6884
    @sarahdanielle6884 9 ปีที่แล้ว +18

    Lol all English accents sound like just one accent to Americans, the same way I'm sure the variety of accents in America all sound as one to the English.

    • @laelnewton6624
      @laelnewton6624 9 ปีที่แล้ว +19

      Depends how much you hear them. I'm American but I watch a fair bit of British TV and I can tell the accents apart reasonably easily.

    • @left4deadlover123
      @left4deadlover123 9 ปีที่แล้ว +20

      I can tell the different accents in the USA and I am British.

    • @GroovinFunk
      @GroovinFunk 9 ปีที่แล้ว

      Sarah Gonzales There's a big difference between accents from LA, NY, midwest and the dirty south to name just a few. All these British accents sound way more similar.

    • @laelnewton6624
      @laelnewton6624 9 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      GroovinFunk I'd disagree about the British accents sounding more similar. It's just a matter of how much you hear them and how much practice you have at telling them apart.

    • @VCYT
      @VCYT 9 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      +Sarah Gonzales thats coz americans only ONE frigging accent in their media.
      for eg- a geordie lass dont sound like a cornwall farmer.

    I like the LIverpool accent. I wish I could hear her say, “Labour got rubbed-out, din they?”

  • @jenlafemme
    @jenlafemme 7 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    How can you compare a London (city) accent to a Scottish (country) accent? There are loads of totally different Scottish accents, as there are within England.

    • @alexhoward1884
      @alexhoward1884 7 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      With that argument you cant impersonate an American accent, Irish accent, Australian accent etc. I don't know if you're American but if you weren't you probably wouldn't know the difference between a Philly and Baltimore accent. But you would still know they both were American.
