Nice movie you have a pretty accent. I really love you "r" sound.
My english is a mixture of both american and uk :-):-)
Same
Indians!!!! Obviously
@@AtsusIsDrawingOfficial i am not indian
@@Hazal.14 Then u can't mix like us😁😁😁
Hi
I m from India and we follow British English but we are so influenced by Hollywood that we started using American English too.
Personally I use british vocabularies with american pronunciations. So i speak 'Britcan'
czcams.com/video/z4KhEj0ai5E/video.html
Same in Africa. We learnt UK English but due to Hollywood we've ended up with American pronunciation.
I do follow and use British English only because the British were our masters and even today are so. We're loyal too.
No you don’t you speak like an Indian with your weird accents
Only some people who are only cultured through Hollywood. Most educated Indians will still be primarily influenced by British English. Never heard an Indian speak with an American accent.
As an American in England, one of my first unintelligible conversations was with a pay phone operator which went: whut? wot? whut? wot? whut? Wot?
Lol
HAHAHAHAHA
Bit of the old conversational ping pong there.
Well in Nigeria we use both, we don't care, just mix them up lol
hi teacher!
Really, that awesome.
But mainly British
Same in india
They also speak French???
British accent is more classy but American accent is easier to understand.
@Toby Skinner Year 12 You need to study more languages. It's not just the brits: all countries have a wide range of accents, and you won't see their natives whining all over the internet that "there's no such thing as an italian/spanish/french/etc accent". It doesn't matter if it's a cockney, a welsh or a scottish accent: you can tell they're from somewhere in the UK and not any of the other countries where English is the official language. All countries have regional variations and dialects, but there's always one that's considered the 'standard', and that's the one usually taught to outsiders. A person from the UK has a british accent, which is short for "this person has one of the many regional accents that exist in the UK". But people are not going to speak like that just to avoid offending vain brits.
Astrius that’s very true
CeeCee KD I don’t agree. I understand British far better, says the Dane.
@Toby Skinner Of course it's a giveaway that we're talking about General American and RP here that's why you're watching speaking coaches do their job.
nope
International - Some of us in the U.S. do actually pronounce the first "t." I have never pronounced it as "innernational."
I pronounced the word as in'ernational. Americans normally don't do this, but I contract military to "milit'ry."
True
yea
I am from India actually we follow British english . After watching your video i think we mixed both...
U csn tell ur from India u use the word ACTUALLY way too much you only shoud use it when you are correcting something or somebody or here we say i beg ur pardon and correct ourselfs by starting with the word actually so Don't use it where its NOT needed it makes u sound like the other person is WRONG and u are correcting them SO ACTUALLY DONT USE actually
When u start of with the word ACTUALLY Which 85% of Indians do in a sentence it makes you sound LIKE Mr know it all and everybody is wrong and ACCUALLY you are Right because you started your sentence with ACCUALLY... The word actually means correction e.g No its not this but its that. Or ACCUALLY its this but not that you see where im coming from so please pleass use it in its correct manner thank u.
@@tali6696 I think he said " actually we follow British English" and not " I am from India actually" 🤔
Probably due to the fact that India was once a British Territory, and hearing British English would have been common.
@@tali6696 wow mama thank you.
it's so funny how Britishers avoid pronounce the letter "r" and Americans avoid the letter "t", I think that i am mixing the two accents when i speak
Not all Americans say the R sound. Us new yorkers don't pronounce the R's at the end of words which is non rhotic speech. Also, people from Boston have heavy accents as well and don't say the R's either. New York accent is very distinctive to other American accents. General American is very rhotic with the R sounds while the New York accent is non rhotic not saying the R sound or having flat r sounds. New York pronounces dog,caught, colfee,and mother as dawg,cawght,cawfee,and motha. New York accent is much heavier than other American accents except Boston accent.
The NY accent is fading away sadly. General American accent is heavily influenced and taking over the US now causing regional accents to die out.
that is so not an american thing more of a new england thing. im from florida and we pronounce our ts. its interesting not inneresting lol i never got that. there are even areas where they pronounce it intresting as if the e isnt there. just like there are different accents in great britain there is also many accents in the states with many different rules and different sounds for letters. one thing i always heard growing up is the dropping of r and replacing t with k. skreet instead of street, and stoe instead of store. but that is just a sountern thing not all of america
Yusuf elsayed you are muslim,lol not American.
And you Rai are Indian?
Omg, finally a video showing and using the examples in sentences as well, so the students can really hear the difference! Thank you
British: waTer
American: waDer
Korean: H20
in German: Beer 🤣
Philly: wooder
we're in Malaysia using both accent! but honestly British english soo..cute! great channel
Anna: just to complete I love this type of class.
Thanks a lot for the efforts, Gabby is from Minnesota and she had to travel all the way to the UK to make this video. Many thanks for both of you.
Hey again my #1 coach Gabby Wallace with her English friend !
You are really teaching us English!
Thank you so much for being transparent with me!
You both mean everything to me!
Gabby Wallace you Introduced me a fantastic English coach!
Hey girls, I was living in Nevada many years ago. That experience was really amazing. US people were very friendly with me. I have very very wonderful memories from that time in the States. I love american accent.
I like british
Refreshing to hear nice things about our accents.
I am glad that you like it, many Englishmen talk down upon our accents, which I can agree with, in comparison to RP.
Showing this video to some of my ESL classes today, thanks for the great resource!!
Such a great work! I was exactly looking for this kind of videos. Thanks both of you
it's quite interesting to listen to these two beautiful ladies pronouncing the two powerful accent.
Amazing video!, I haven't realized that I use pronunciation from both countries, that's why some people used to correct me when I pronounced British accent words...
I learned English at collage and I had teachers from both countries...
So glad to see you here again! You create advanced English lesson that really stands up as professional work. It reveals your skills of the trade. Thumbs up!!!
Mollie Tai you again hahahaha
2:12:
Anna: Full Stop.
Gabby: WTF is that?
hahahahaha I loved Gabby's face there
When she said period, the first thing I thought of was the thing Women had at a certain part of the month.
Спасибо, я 10 минут не мог сложить, как это связано
It's a pretty interesting lesson. It's good to learn the same language with a variety of accents upon.
American accent is east to understand but English accent is sweet. 😊
David Vishwakarma easy*
Amy dean am oops it was a typo. Thanks for the correction.
David Vishwakarma may I say you're really handsome :)
Amy dean am haha thank you Amy.
David Vishwakarma learning wing anglihs
Hi Anna, Hi Gabby. It's really a fabulous chance to find you both together. I've subscribed and followed your lessons and I do really appreciate them .but to get you together is really much better. Thank you two.
Hassan mashi from Saudi Arabia.
I am currently studying phonetics at university (still in quarentine) and I LOVED your video
Greetings from Argentina 💚
I'am from Makassar Indonesia, and I like this very much !!! Very interesting English lessons.
"last but not least" I didn't know this phrase. Thanks for this new knowledge.
I've learned the hard way the differences. First time in the USA I saw my wife's daughter (7 yo) doing her homework. Instinctively I told my wife "your daughter needs a new rubber". I'll
Let you guess her facial expression lol.
lol
I once worked for a UK-based company at a facility here in the US. The home office sent a couple of their quality inspectors over here for an orientation. On the first morning of the tour, one of our inspectors arrived a little late because her young daughter had balked at getting ready for school; and that the little girl had been so stubbornly disobedient that the mom had to give her "a swat on the fanny" to get her moving. No one had warned her - nor the UK visitors - that the word "fanny" does not mean over here what it means over there!
@marius popa It's slightly old-timey slang for condom
marius popa Rubber: eraser.
ouh my gosh I didn't remember for a moment it was the same as eraser but most used in Englad or the entire UK maybe =D I first learnt "eraser" in my school, and then "rubber" while studying in my British English Center xD so I know both of them as synonims
Loved it✌
Would you please make more extensive lessons about this very topic?
Thanks in advance🌺
I'm from India.we mostly follow British English.I love both British& American accent...I'v manny Australian friends.Australian accent is also great
I can relate
Very interesting video. thanks Gabby and Anna
Gabby's smile is everything.
Anna thank you for this video. Comparing my British accent to Gabby's I sound so much more like you. After living in Mid Tennessee for a decade this is a huge relief because I left Kent with an RP accent and I don't want to lose it. Sounds odd I know but being English is in my DNA
You can hear Gabby's Midwest accent coming out in words with "a". Just slightly.
You darn tootin'!
Yes, precisely what I noticed.
Hilarious I’m an English person and I was trying the American accent and it was so funny 😂
warrrrer
oi wot you avina laff
I grew up speaking Britsh English and recently moved to USA. It's a big transition. 'R' character is giving me a had time. Words are pronounced differently and people have different accents. 'A' is pronounced as 'e'. But I love both English.
In Myanmar,mostly Ive heard only American accents but strangely I heard British accent from one of my friend thank you for the video and you guys helped me alots.
Learning both accents, this lesson was soooooo useful! Thank you Anna & Gabby!
It'd be great if Anna could also read Comma Gets a Cure :)
Gabby does sound midwestern with the flat, broad short "a" sound, which is the most noticeable feature of that family of accents. In standard American English you don't stretch the corners of the mouth out so wide.
Haha love how they seem to battle on which way to say something is right 😂
I am from Argentina, here we use the American accent to speak a lot, but when I heard them, I fell in love with both.
Extremely useful lessons! Thanks so much!
As A Filipino National, then when I was in high school to collegeI I like and often use American English words and phrases in conversations. Though Philippines was colonzied by the Americans... 'til now I still used American English but now, everytime I make a letter I often use some British words and phrases. Thanks to both of you, girls. 👭👍. Cheers mate for your video. Educational yet informative. 👍👌👏
It's amazing to watch u together ..different concept to make us more understandable
wow man...made my life..
Nice one Subscribed...Keep'em comin....
Great Video Girls, I Actually found myself smiling for no reason, Other than your beautiful infectious smile's. Fantastic little video. I am just starting teaching so both accents are interesting to me well done wishing you both success in 2020
Dave🙏👍
When I was in Australia, it was really fun teaching those I interacted with how to speak with an American accent. What was really helpful was to spell it out like it sounds. So for instance, the phrase, "What are you doing" would be "Whudayuh doin'" When I described it like that, they nailed it easily. It's not always that simple though. :p
How lovely ! I' ve been in America for long years... I was quite afraid to do not be able to comunicate in UK, due accents matters... my very first time in London was amazing ! It was simply clear and perfect ! As I have been in London for my entire life and not in America ! How lovely !
Beautiful both teacher,I follow America Mrs Gabby easy for me,but I love both,and thank you for your time to share this!
Girls, you are both brilliant teachers! Thanks! It's so exciting video! Thanks one more time!
I loved the difference. I knew most of them. But I learned lots and in Ethiopia we, sort of, use a bit of both. Thank you for your efforts and idea. Well done, ladies.👏👏
Oh man, this is so funny because I have been watching Anna's verba vocal videos for about a year now and I'm used to her voice, but I'm American. Strangely enough, the American accent is sounding funny to me, even though I mostly talk like that!! This is a really fun video, I found it inspiring. Thanks ladies.
Gabby is speaking as a midwesterner would. you should feature a Texan or a Southerner from Louisiana or from the boondocks of Florida. hehe... that would be quite interesting.
This is not a Midwestern accent, it's more so considered "neutral" the type you would hear on the news. People from Minnesota who have Minnesotan accents speak very different from Gabby.
@@BasedEngineer Yes, she sound nothing like most people from Minnesota. I would guess she's from Ohio or something, by listening to her. That doesn't mean that her accent is necessarily like an Ohioan accent, but if I had to guess where she were from that's what I'd come up with. Maybe it's just because her accent is bland and Ohio is the blandest place I can think of :D
A little bit! I’m from Ohio and we sound different from her. A little mixture of Jersey Minnesota and what they call “neutral”. When I say “mom” sometimes it sounds like “mam” lol. My aunts is way more strong! They sound closer to a Minnesota accent actually lol
This is awesome, thank you beautiful teacher Anna 💕
Good vídeo congratulations 🤗
That dropping of the "t" sound in "interesting" and "international" etc... is also Midwest American English!
Yes. That’s not how I say it. I’m from California.
This video is much better than I expected.
You girls are lovely and interesting.
Thank you very much; cheers from Peru.
At 8:43 reminded of that scene in "Singing In The Rain" when Lina Lamont's diction coach is trying coach Lina how to pronounce "Can't".
I’m a New Yorker from Brooklyn, I don’t sound like either of these two wonderful women.
But you probably sound more like the American woman.
@@ajs41 Fu asshole
@@MrBenbaruch idk why u triggered you're american so obv you're going to sound more like the american woman
This is fun. A big one for me is in British english you literally just said, "In the lost few hours...", instead of, "the last few hours...". I guess it is like the way you say "Bean" and "Been" exactly the same. But, American does many things crazy too. This seems to be recent. Americans are starting to mix up "Are" with "Our", driving me nuts - lol. Of course here "Our" and "Hour" are supposed to sound just alike so "Are" is WAY off lol.
Hi from Paris. I use my french accent for both american and british english and it is always a great pleasure to speak english.
It's a video that really helps to deepen my English, and knows how to tell the difference between British and American speech. So helpful once, in my family (maternal mum and deceased father's). More American accents than British, but because I'm a lot of friends with the British Council. English is a must....
The word "bird" from the England pronunciation sounds like Bud.
Could watch this forever...
This is the most beautiful video on CZcams ever please make more videos like this one
Thank you so much, this is so useful for me.. especially about IPA (International Phonetic Alphabet)..
Hi!! I'm Italian and I really appreciated this video. I was told by some English people living in Italy that I speak with an American accent and wanted to understand all the differences between the two accents! Thank you so much, you girls are beautiful! :-)
Great video. Both ladies are lovely. Gabby sounds "normal" to me, as an American.
Gabby's eyes are just like my aunt's eyes , May God bless her soul.
I love this video, thank you!
It's fabulous!
+Sky Blue Cheong thanks
English Like A Native hi A1 video
I agree.
Nice speaking madam
oooh, great video .....I discovered that in my country we learn American and British in public schools.
we pronounce letter R like American but letter T like British and ile, aunt and law like British. I'm really confused especially I'm living now in US
Omg really appreciate video for both .. I got good experience .
Gaby is beautiful. When I was in school learning English my teachers or one of them said that in the old days the Danish students would learn to speak with a british accent, but now the teachers and student use the american accent more because of films.
I knew Gaby's youtube channel. I am so happy you made this video. I would like to thank you for being such a lovely and smart teacher. Thanks a lot Anna. I love your youtube channel. Lots of love from Brazil. We love you. #VideoShared
+Sandra Dos Santos ❤️❤️thank you
Thanks!
+English Like A Native I prefer the way you teach.
+Go Natural English but I prefer you diction and American English as well
Sandra Dos Santos nice to meet you, i am still learn english, so could i learn speak english with you via whatsapp
Thanks for sharing, I love British Comedy x
I'm in an American and a lot of time I say, "This 'er that?" Kinda interesting how I say 'er instead of or.
That's the so-called "weak" pronunciation of "or". It is extremely common for the short, commonly-used words to have both the "strong" and "weak" pronunciations, and this was both accepted and taught even in theater-training classes.
I adore both accents !! Thanks for this great video ladies. I really enjoyed it !! 😄❤️❤️❤️
Britain is not an accent. It is a location. This is an english accent.
I'm From Indonesia and I love British Accents,, lovely ♥️
I am from India and have same opinion.
Im from indonesian and i love YOU
One of my favorites has always been eraser vs rubber. lol
I once told a girl in Lancashire about a band from my hometown called Wet Willie. That didn't go well.
And if your name is Randy, don't introduce yourself in the UK.
I am from Mexico and i learned My english skills in the US so, I always have trouble understanding the british people. But, with this lesson I´m going to understand people from UK much better. Thanks a lot!! :-)
LOVE YOU BOTH.. THIS IS SUPER USEFUL...
Just amazing.. And very clear
Loved this!! I'm from California & I pronounce a few words a little different than Gabby!
LACalifornia RockerGal can you practice english with me? please
LACalifornia RockerGal that is because you no longer speak properly like the people in the English land. And did you knew that Britain did no always spoke English? Neither Ireland or Scotland. Those who spoke English are actually called Anglo Saxon, and they were a Germanic tribe, that’s why a lot of English words are found in the German vocabulary, they are just pronounced differently.
Us New Yorkers pronounce words differently than the rest of Americans. New York accent comes from.the Dutch,British, Irish,Jewish,and Italian settlers.
LACalifornia RockerGal nice to meet you, i am still learn english, so could i learn speak english with you via whatsapp
wono sarwono lol
This vid was just wildly entertaining... I couldn't pull away from it lol. Have you seen that video where they do an amazing impression of what American English sounds like to non-English speakers? It's a trip!
I learned all of these differences on my own growing up by just listening to british people talk and now I can replicate RP English.
I like how American teachers are so positive and smile. At my elementary school, the teachers were.. well.. they made you not like learning. Now I'm a sophomore on a bilingual high school and last year we had this amazing teacher named Jessie from somewhere in America. She made me like learning again. We have more native speaking teachers and I like them all. I love this school. I'm from Slovakia btw.
Amazing video to start my evening 👌🏽
+Ibrahim Abu Eraq glad you like it
Wow ! Excellent job both of you. Thank you very much.
THİS İS AWESOME ANNA THANK YOU SO MUCH
I'm from Spain and I've noticed many infuence from the British English in some Spanish words, here we say 'móvil' to the mobile phone for example. And I think is the same in Portugal and France
Yes, in Portugal we say "telemóvel" = mobil phone
I love British English heartly...
Awesome, Great teachers!
I simply loved it.... thank you Anna !!!
I loved the relaxed nature of this video,Anna! The mistakes were great,too. I was just hoping you would do some reading with an American accent!
I found your channel because of your accent videos (I don't watch too much of your other teaching videos since in Australia we speak English fine). I find different ascents fascinate me. It would be awesome to do a standard British accent vs Australian accent as I find a lot of foreigners (even from those in English speak countries) can't tell us apart.
I will do I promise :)
Australians do not speak English fine ... it's poor fact .. an English person here in Australia.
Totally agree, I find dialects and accents fascinating, why they happen, the different circumstances and interaction.
One thing I noticed is that, British or Americans can't tell the difference between New Zealand and Australian accents; I grew up in Aussie and NZ, and can tell both accents easily. But I have trouble telling the difference between Canadian and USA accent, but a Canadian guy told me it is easy for him.
mrfriendlyguy it's cause of the "r" but Australians have such a difference accent.. The best one if I may.
While you're at it, how about South African English? I once had a lecture given by a South African English speaker (probably a native speaker, but I'm not 100% sure) and some class mates (this was at a university in the Netherlands) said she sounded Australian. While I recognised the similarities between South African and Australian English, having spent quite some time in South Africa I could easily tell them apart.
I'm from Dallas Texas and I just learned that I say Aunt like the British. 😁
I love accents so much.
I live in the Carolinas and we pronounce "aunt" like the British also apparently.
You mean you say it like the english would. Britain is a location, not an accent. I am Scottish (which is sadly part of Britain) and I have a Scottish accent, but still live in Britain. Lots of americans get this mixed up.
@@chrismcnab478 Marry me. I love the Scottish accent even more than the ENGLISH accent😉!
@@miss.g-shun-w haha that has won you brownie points! We would happily have you over in Glasgow, you would be more than welcome over here!
I appreciate you and your videos thanks following from Nepal
