The biggest surprise from this video, for me, is that people are still worried about the concept of a 'correct' or 'right' way to speak; this is not the nineteenth century. If you lose the language/dialect/accent of where you come from then you lose the means of expressing the culture of that place, and a culture that can't be expressed is a dying culture. The most correct pronunciation is your native pronunciation .
So well said!!
wow!
You are rightâŠ.my culture âAmericanizedâ and âCanadianizedâ rapidly in the past 30 years or so. It makes me a bit sad. Itâs life though.
No, that was just a personal/Private joke between those speaking RP and Lauren, who is a hybrid between RP and Northern. The joke was simply that most people would consider Lauren having an RP accident, but when she is around people in South-east England, she Sounds Northern.
There really isn't much of a prejudice against what you would call "proper".I speak RP,and so do most of my close friends, but I've never heard anyone even mention accent variations, in middle England
@@Rowlph8888 Thanks for the explanation, I hadn't paid enough attention to the mutually enjoyed humour in that joke.
I love mitch's accent , very different from the others , i'm not used to this one
His is Scottish the rest are English
and even that's a mild Scottish accent, you should listen to some of the more pronounced ones, they're great
itâs very mild, check out channels like Limmyâs show if you really like that accent, itâs really really fun
I'd say he has a Morningside accent. Quite posh and from Edinburgh.
He's Scottish. There's plenty of different accents and dialects just within Scotland and it's a bit disingenuous to divide it between northern and southern British since nobody thinks or talk about that in the UK. There's the South and North of England and then there's Scotland as well. But Scottish people aren't considered 'Northern'.
Would be nice if people from Wales & Northern Ireland were in these episodes.

@@renegadepuppy đ±đđ€
â@@renegadepuppyI know that Northern Irish people are not British (having grown up in England) and I never said that they were. What I'm really trying to say is that whenever people from the UK (which Northern Ireland currently is part of) are brought to take part in this channel, its usually people from England and to a lesser extent, Scotland. Wales and Northern Ireland on the other hand are always excluded in this channel when it comes to the whole UK (if just Great Britain is the focus, then Northern Ireland doesn't count) though I guess it'll depend if any people from Wales & Northern Ireland have moved to South Korea.
@@renegadepuppy They're not British but they can have British citizenship so i guess they could be included in the video
I KNOW RIGHT
Weird to use Lauren as the sole Northern example, when she's spent about 3 years on this channel explaining how she doesn't have a typical Northern accent.
Justice for Diane Morgan
to be fair she does have a noticeable northen edge to her accent, its soft but its definitely there
Its very weak lmao wheres the mancunian, scouser, yorkshire or geordie accent?
@Elias Ashwood Ms Cunk đ„Ž
My friend from Wolverhampton/West Midlands has far more thick accent than these. laugh is short loff, fun is short foon, time is kind of to-yim etc very nice really
I could not identify what the differences were because I'm Japanese and I have been exposed mainly American English in schools. However, I found it interesting there are so much variety accents in the UK! Thank you for sharing your accents!
Yeah, every country has different dialects and accents. The US is a great example of this.
The only one with a different accent on here is the man on the far left. All the others speak the same. I say that as a British person. The reason is because all of them are middle to upper class and regional accents and dialects become homogenous among them.

Even when they were being mean to each other in a teasing way, it was obvious that they were having fun. I was taken aback when the video was over. Smiled the whole time, great video
It's typical a British banter.
This is Britain, being mean to eachother is a cultural norm
As a person whoâs studying English as a second language, I really canât tell most of the differences when they speak đ
This is really normal, most of your attention is taken up with understanding what they are saying to notice the accent and the timbre of the voice. Keep it going, eventually you'll start to hear it.
I didn't notice the difference anyways
@@jocelynarancibia9429 northerners, specially the girl is not good representative. Try to listen some interviews of footballers for example Conor Coady /Liverpool accent
Same like i truly didn't notice any differences. Same with the American accents, they all sound the same. I can only be able to differentiate between British, American and Australian English not differences in their accents state wise.
@@Snowhite-tx4sm you cant see difference between deep south accent and New York city?
A New Zealander friend of mine once told me that my English was much better easy to understand than a Yorkshirer man's. I am a originally a Korean.
My mom is French and my dad is Puerto Rican but I grew up in England so I grew up with this weird British/French/Latino accent and everyone always thinks Iâm faking my British accentđđđ
Nothing from Yorkshire, Newcastle, Sunderland, Teesside, Cumbria, West Country/Birmingham, Gloucester/Bristol, Cornwall/Devon, Essex/North London, Cambridgeshire/East Anglia, not to mention Wales/other parts of Scotland. What did we do to deserve being ignored like that?
Justice
Thatâs what I came to say these folk all sound pretty much the same aside from the dude in blue
The dark british humour is really clear in this video .. everyone is trying to make fun of the others even in a mean way !!
This is how we Brits show we feel comfortable with you and consider you to be a friend. We take the piss out of each other. It is not in a mean way. We polite and formal until we consider you to be a friend and then we'll start cracking jokes and teasing you.
@@blotski As a Flemish Belgian person I don't even know why he thinks of this as mean.. xD
Not mean at all, just fun. As a rule of thumb, if a Brit is only ever nice/polite to you they probably either don't know you or don't like you.
@@blotski I mean by "mean" that it can be offensive in other societies.. but I already know about the british humor and that u use it just in case you are close to each other .. btw, my country has a similar humor so i am used to đđ
@@dennisengelen2517 I mean that it can be offensive to "some" people in "some" countries not to "me" đ cuz my country has a similar humor
I wish they had a Northerner from Yorkshire or somewhere similar as well, because they have "Scottish-like" (monophthongal) "oh" and "ey" sounds as well. It would've given a nice example of an English person with those stereotypically "Scottish" vowels. The Scouse woman sounds very similar to the Southerners.
same like im from co. durham and we speak a lot diff to scousers and scottish people too!! also speak diff to geordies as well so would've been nice to see a bigger range:/
Yeah it's weird to have a Scottish person for Northern dialects. Would have been better to have all English or had a Southern English, Northern English and Scottish group.
I'm from Yorkshire and I wouldn't say we have too much "Scottish-like" sounds, but we sound completely different to anywhere else, especially in West Yorkshire where we skip the letters H and T (unless the T is at the start of a word) and we don't say 'To' so like we say 'orse' and 'ouse' instead of horse and house and we say like 'I'm off town' instead of off to town
@@cheman579 I didn't mean that Yorkshire phonology in general was "Scottish-like". I know they sound very different. I was just talking about the monophthongal vowels that many Yorkshire accents and many Scottish accents share (like the "ow" and "ey" sounds, which I mentioned in the first comment).
@@mayorjoshua yeah fair point, reading it back we definitely pronounce words like that

Thank you so much for this very informative video!! I jot down notes! Yay!
Aaah that's a video I was waiting for ! We're always talking about British accent, but... which one ? I found it very interesting, thanks for making the video and to all the guests participating in it đ„°
The northern accents are very warm and friendly.
I am a very big fan of Emly and Lauren . I love both accent
I love this channel. Cheers from the Pacific West Coast of Canada
Love this group
I speak with an RP southern British accent, but What's all the interest in this about?All these videos. We need more variation on the channel, e.g. different American accents, or different Spanish accents.
I would be very interested to hear The difference between New York and California, contrasted with central US and Canada, for example
Que bueno que subieron un video con esa tématica!!!
Saludos desde Chile đšđ±
I'm from Edinburgh, but my accent sounds southern English. I've just never really been surrounded by people with strong Scottish accents and one of my parents is German giving me the 'silent r', which I feel is the biggest difference between southern and northern accents.
I do, however, pronounce the 'A's in words like Bath, Grass, and Answer like 'ah' instead of 'uh',
and I pronounce 'T's if there is a vowel after them, but if there is nothing after or a consonant after when it is used at the end of a word, I use a glottal stop.
6:37 It's like all of Lauren's ancestors came out to speak for a second there đ€Ł.
I would of loved to have a proper west country accent take part in this!! As living in rural southwest England for most my live, there so many more relaxed way of talking and slang that is present in Devon and Cornwall (although Cornwall have more of there own as well) thats not available shown here, to me even the Dorset sounds more posh and although i know people who can sound like that here they often come from more affluent background even if they are still farmers or mechanics etc.! I know personally my accent isn't that thick as some other west country accents as i spent the 1st 8 years of my live living in Essex so i still have a bit of a twang there from my mum, but my dad grew up in rural Hampshire so he sounded different again! My kids dad doesn't speak very Devonian either has his father served in the RAF so he grew up exposed to many accents, although his family comes from Plymouth so that's kind of what some people would refer to as a townie accent rather than rural. But i also feel that this is an accent that isn't really represented in modern media very much either.
I also like a West Country accent. Problem is these people are all in their 20s, and the younger generations no longer speak proper West Contry because they think it's embarrassing or uncool. So instead they ape London and South Eastern accents, which is sad. West Country is one of the countries oldest dialects and accents, and it's dying out within the space of 50 years because young people think it's not cool anymore. Tragic really. I'm a Northerner, but I say West Country people should take more pride in where they live, and who cares if the South Easterners (or anyone else) laughs at your accent! West Country accents have always sounded friendly and unpretentious to my ears.
As a fellow Glaswegian who is constantly told they donât sound it, I think some people just think Glasgow has to be the roughest, clankiest dialect! You *can* have a soft Glaswegian đ You just canât hear us over the rougher speakers! And everyone hates the Glasgow Uni accent, but they bring it upon themselves⊠đ
Edinburgh is exact same, class makes a huge difference to an accent. A Morningside lady compared to a lass from an estate, chalk and cheeses both side a wee bit put on the Posh trying to hard to be upper class the lass from the estate trying to hard to be street. Of course there varying degrees of strength of accent throughout the city those been extremes.
Even in the United Kingdom, there are hundreds of accents.
From now on, I will be angry if someone criticizes my accent.
I live in Salford Manchester but I am originally from Surrey But I love hearing different accents.I love the Scouse accent.
I hope you don't tell people in Salford you love the Scouse accent? They'll get the pitchforks out
I love this content â€.
Is easy to understand of the pronoun English British accent.
Iâm northern English and the four on the right sound exactly the same to me đ canât tell southern accents apart
Yeah the south is extremely homogenised. There is literally no difference between Milton Keynes and Brighton; they're all wannabe Londoners these days. The North, Wales and Scotland are so much better, richer culture, more diverse.
It was a bit of a strange video because Lauren doesn't sound very Northern and the girl from Dorset didn't have a Dorset accent
@@robertwilson3866 They're just wannabe southerners.
@@EvsEntps Yeah, go to Brighton and listen to the kids there, then tell me people don't want to be Londoners.
There's nothing worse than being asked to talk in your Scottish dialect on the spot. It just comes across as fake and forced, catching us in normal everyday conversation is much better and more natural.
I appreciate it more that not everyone has the same accent or dialect up and down the UK throughout all 4 home nations.
Fairly unique I'd say.
Yes it's almost impossible to code switch consciously.
Iâm Scouse, and even though considered English, I feel worlds apart from the southerners on the right. I feel 100x more at home and a connection with Scots than I do with southern English.
Trying being from Liverpool and Southerners demanding you say "chicken" or "can of coke" on the spot, as if you're a dancing monkey.
The guy in black jeans and shirt sound so hot. His voice is pretty masculine plus British. So my type.
I wouldn't even say the English of the Southerners here is RP, more SB. RP is what the royal family speaks, think how Queen Elisabeth used to speak.
If your in need of Northerns for videos Iâll happily come use my accent to confuse some southerns! x
I actually also like Welsh accent...
thats why i watch WILTY..... there i get every accent and the beautiful Bri_ish humour
It is NOT RP, that is an old accent, they are specking Standard Southern British [SSB]. RP is the accent of the elite class from the last century.
Donât get why they donât just say southerners vs northerners
Would've been interesting if they had a Weslh person too, but we are often forgotten :p.
OK, so this is not the best example of how varied British accents are. The 4 on the left are what I would class a pretty much the same (I struggle to hear a difference). If the producers really wanted to show the difference amongst the British accents then they would have chosen people from across the country; Essex, South London, Dorset, Bristol etc all the way up to the North. I don't think this is a great example of just how beautifully varied the British accents are. Even in London there are multiple accents that are different between themselves: for example, the African British accent is different to the Indian British accent. Now that would be a video I would prefer to see that truly represents how wonderfully and fascinating British accents can be.
This whole project is based in Korea, so, I guess, it's kinda difficult to find such a variety of British people there đ
brummy accent lmao
@@aelyndorren6770 Yeah I agree, it tends to attract these cliche trust fund posh twats
I think a lot of accents are starting to be watered down now with people travelling and moving about the country. What'd be really interesting would be to go back to older video/recordings of people speaking with accents and see how they have changed over time. It's probably not the aim of the channel, I gather it's more for ESL students to get a variety of current accents.
czcams.com/video/IRKzby13TSE/video.htmlsi=wWr8PRk9cB5_fm7i
With these kinds of videos I'm a bit surprised there aren't more south west accent people on it like Devon & Cornwall way
i'm enjoying this way too much
i really like the accent and how the girl speaks in the black/grey shirt
Okay but the girl in the pink sweater had such a lit outfit đ
The funniest video so far.
That was so fun to watch đ
Scots Gaelic is not closely related to Scots English - the former is a development of Old Irish, the latter Northumbrian dialects of Old English (parts of southeast Scotland formerly part what was later the kingdom of Northumbria).
Indeed. It was somewhat surprising that he was mistaken on that point. I'm American and I knew that.
Just curious where in SE London them other 2 are from. As I was only in SE London couple of weeks ago in Blackheath + Lewisham!
I'm in Kent right between Dartford/Bexleyheath.
I can't tell if they like, tolerate or hate each other
the ruder they are, the more they like each other, general rule for Brits
Nobody likes southeners. Especially posh ones
Northern accents are waaaay more varied, & the South is not JUST RP. Unfortunately, here the northerners are outnumbered & forced to feel like 2nd calss citizens in 2022. Wow.
Yeah the south these days are just wannabe Londoners. They have no sense of community or culture. Just bland homogeneity.
Emily just roasts everybody lmao
I'm from Worcestershire, my partner (who's from SE London) says I sound like a farmer but other people say that I sound posh! đ€Ł

Next time round, Iâd love to see Wales and Cumbria being represented too. And also Cornwall and thereabouts.

Itâs cool! Many thanks!
every single southerner sounds exactly the same to me, and the one north england representation sound very educated as their really is not much of an accent, i have more thick accent and mine has been dulled down a lot through american media making my accent very diluted.
Gotta say they have very standard pronunciation and clear enunciation of words. If you're interested there are tonnes of British accent videos on CZcams, like those live interviews and stuff. You'll be amazed, sometimes you just can't understand what they have said. đ Those heavy scouse and geordie, while irish is like singing songs LOL
@@leontnf6144 irish is very melodic, which i believe is a good characteristic to have in an accent
@@shadykid5939 If you're accent has been 'dulled' down from watching videos then you're vegetable lol.. đ„đ

Iâm from southern England and my auntie always tried to get me to pronounce my Ts but I was lazy i just roll everything into one now. I do have a very strong Hampshire accent tho so Iâve been mistaken for coming from the south west Towards Devon and Dorset. I canât stand RP itâs so much easier to roll all your words into one.
"ken" is the original word for ''knowledge". Guys, as a Turkish guy, even I recognise it from goddamn Tolkien! Ken or kenne also means to know in German too.
Hmm. In my opinion, a language that fundimentally belongs to the same basic language no matter how big it may differ otherwise is a dialect. An accent would be basically different if the language was confined to a confined defined area. So someone raised in the area of a country that used English as the common denominator might experience different dialects of the same language, whereas someone who was brought up in a German or French speaking area, country or community might have an accent if he or she enters a different place in the world where a basically different language was spoken and the person tries to learn that language. Some terms may be known if they were imported as loanwords to the the foreign language, but in general, the terminology will be completely different. Someone from east Asia, for example, will not know how to speak an English word correctly until that person learns otherwise. To be able to do so, a person has to overcome such things as the correct pronunciation of the word in the according other language before being understood in the other language and so on. It can be quite frustrating to experience that down to the way the letters of the alphabet are not used in quite the same way as in the English way.
I spent the first 6 years of my life in a suburb about an hour north of London. The next 2 in Cambridge. Then we moved to northwest London and thatâs where I still live. My mum is also from Aberdeen. So my accent has been morphed a bit by 4 different places and as such people find it hard to place my accent.
In the USA we say take a bath but then we ask somebody. Have you had your bath?

Well the southerners all sound posh rp. Born in North London, the Sarf Lunnon accent is very different and have a friend from Gloucester, not far from Cheltenham who has rolled r's and more rounded West Country vowels when speaking native though has softened by living elsewhere.
This i actually gonna help me because in my drama lessons we are learning how to do a posh and scouse/liverpool accent so this is helpful and a fun way to learn.
I ve lerned posh English from a teacher from Londen.
My friends in the USA laugh at me for speacking coucky English.
I need to lern some slang
As a Londoner, I have been told that my accent is a mix of RP, Estuary and Cockney.

Ăs vezes, as pessoas querem mudar seu sotaque para evitar os preconceitos e prĂ©-conceitos sobre o grupo do qual eles pertencem.
