In London your gaff is your home.

Thought chunder was Australian?

I'm sure that when Brits visit the USA, they have a difficult time understanding us, too!😅

Why is there a volleyball in Crystal Palace’s logo, instead of a football?

I'm voice coaching for the actors in the dramatic society that I 'm a member of. This video will be of enormous benefit to my efforts. I am aiming for accuracy and consistency. The accent is a part of the setting because when the audience hears everybody speaking the Cockney accent, they are immediately transported to London. I am confident that they can do it. This is a start.amd will make a valuable contribution.

5:37 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

I´m from Argentina... Nice to hear you´ve visited my land. Nos vemos!

I'll tell you why you Brits are impossible to understand: because you speak too fast, using interjections, shortening already short words, inserting slang everywhere and saying it all as if you were chewing a hot boiled potato at the same time. 😄 A story from my old English teacher: she was once in England and received a compliment from a gentleman: - It's been a long time since I've heard such beautiful, pure English! Where are you from? The answer was: - I'm from Moscow. 😂

5:36 Take it easy, pal. Thou almost hit thy plant 🙃

Thank you, Teacher Tom, I live in the USA, and I am planning to have friends from London visit me this summer. I sure hope we can understand each other!

A scouse friend was asked what her name was. She said in her broad scouse accent “Margaret” The woman said “Isn’t that a nice name, I’ve never heard the name Margritsss before. 😂

Imagine try to explain 'Oh, I hate her' in Cockney! No h's, no t, and ah instead of er 😂

While the whole world is trying to learn English, the British are moving to a new unattainable level

Because they still don't use a microphone

Love watching your videos about the British language mate & keep up the great work! 👍

I use Monty Python reference a lot for something crazy or absurd. "It's just like a Monty Python episode in here"😂 I don't know if you guys are using that one in UK... Cheers from Croatia 🇭🇷✌🏻🇬🇧

But what accent is he speaking in?!?

watch Doctor Who that's how I understand British accents : )

You're hard to understand because you don't stick to any rules mate, neither grammatically nor phonetically. Simple as that.

I spent 2 weeks in Plymouth last year, and I only had one instance of not understanding a person seeking to me. The poor woman spent 20 minutes asking me to bum a smoke, before I understood enough to tell her I don't smoke.

10 downing st shebeen club is what it called now since the lockdown incident. Down the hatch BORIS Johnson 🥂🍻🍺 Don't let the cat out of the bag thou! Mummy's word 🤔

Learned a lot, great video! I like the RP, Contemporary RP, Bristol, Scouse, Glaswegian, and the Belfast accent.

If you say that something is pants, you mean that it is very poor in quality. [British, informal] The place is pants, yet so popular.. Love from Casablanca

As an American, some of those clips were the most ridiculous. I can usually understand Brits, but that was next level.

I'm an English teacher and this stressed me out lol!

American here. Wardrobe and closet are two different things here. A closet is a room built into a wall with an exterior door for storage. A wardrobe is a piece of furniture placed in a room for storage.

Love your videos, greetings from Colombia 🇨🇴

Hallo from Germany🙋🏻‍♀️We also have a lot of accents in the German. I love accents it’s always interesting to hear it and it makes a language kind of lively, sometimes rather funny too, at least f e the Saxon accent in German. You mentioned the Irish influence in Scouse and the Singsang in the accent Scouse, this reminds me of an Irisch actor, Jamie Dornan, because he has a slightly Singsang and a lift up at the end of his sentences too. Thank you for the interesting insight into the different accents. I appreciate it very much.

😃😃😃😊

In "feel like" it's probable that the "like" influenced her to pronounce "feel" more with a dark L than with a liquid W.

Really interest to see the different accents. As a non native English speaker, it's interesting to remember that everyone has its own way of speaking and pronunciating.

That /x/ sound is pretty common in the Irish language, so we're all nodding here. One of those sounds we all get to learn at school, if our own regional English accent has lost it. Found in words like, for example, president: uachtarán.

Thank you for confirming the fact that ordering at Starbucks (or any other coffee place or restaurant for that matter) is intimidating. And thank you for the great video. I'm here after watching the video titled "10 Starbucks drinks you're saying wrong" which was very helpful

Oh, Geordie, definitely. But that's for personal reasons, many of my family are from the NE, so I find it friendly, endearing and evocative.

Congratulations Tom! I'm so happy for you and Shana :) I hope you two have a wonderful life with lots of joy, adventure and health 🙏 In Turkish we say '' Allah tamamına erdirsin.'' ( May you have a long-lasting marriage) Greetings from Turkey👋 Çağlar.

Cheers !

Yes. Always one of my top 5 (at lease) favorite sounding languages. I am US born, never traveled to British Isles, etc.

Why doesn't an English cleaning lady at the hotel speak French or German?

Cette conversation est très ennuyeuse !

Why don't the British speak other languages? Because you're lazy! I don't understand why an English or Irish worker doesn't learn foreign languages!

Parlez français en France et polonais en Pologne !

😂

Most of my day it's all English around me) I bingelisten and bingwatch=DIve also boght a course for Brummie accent , haha) I actually dont have many problemswith pronunciation but some words gush i hesistate how to read o doubt myself)especially with Br/Am english) But the biggest problem is that in my language we have eally open vowels and we speak "from our throat" and it does give me away, though ppl sually think I am a German mostly,and a couple of times a Finnish=D agree that listening and trying to do the shadowing technique

Congratulations Tom! I'm really happy for you and your fiancée.
