Hello
Please can you give one video for entrance ...means if we want to go to school..like that in another country..from. India
Thanks
Maybe you can try discover manglish or singlish.. its where chinese, Indian and malays mixed-up british English 🤣
Thanks Lucy, but in other times it is better to record your guest as live not as a piece of video or photo, I mean they participate in with you in commenting not just your talk...respect.
Bob definitely lives up to the “friendly Canadian” stereotype
@@markearnest3570 Eh?
Racist.
@@sweiland75 it’s not
As a Canadian he couldn't resist a hockey reference.
@@loveandmercy9664 lol
Bob the Canadian is a real teacher. He just can't pronounce words without an explanation) it's so cool!
Upd: 1k wow! Thanx to everyone! Who could even think (: Thumbs up and comment from the Bob the Canadian is left to be completely happy, ahah ;)
Beautifully put, my friend. He has a knack for teaching.
lol that was exactly my thoughts while watching this. It looked like there were a few times when his explanations were edited out too haha
yep
On point!
bob is speaking in his old terms and most certainly more eastern canadian terms for atleast 1/3 of his total discriptors
I’m Canadian and I can’t stop laughing at Bob’s pronunciation 😹 then I try it and I sound the same lol. I love this video 🤣
Same!
Lmao
True
As an Ontarian, I'm curious what pronunciations specifically you found different, and where you're from?
🤣Bob slipped in an EH bomb, during the 'process' section. 🤣 Love it.😂
He definitely speaks as an Ontarian. Here in the Maritimes, we more tend to the British pronunciation on a lot of these. 🙂
I noticed the flexibility in the Canadian accent. Each time, Bob would say he uses both pronunciations and doesn't know why he chooses one pronunciation over the other. I think that's quite smart of Canadians and cool 👍😊
aw, interesting, eh?
There is not really one "Canadian accent". It changes from province to province.
@@ruthiestewart6743 yeah. Interesting and smart 😉😊
@@jbye5353 the multiple accents based on regions probably gave rise to the flexibility, perhaps 🤷
I'm Canadian. I've noticed that in cases where there's no distinction in terms of how it's used (i.e. noun vs verb), I go with the one that sounds better in the sentence. Like depending on the cadence and how the rest of the sentence flows. It's almost sort of like the musical quality of the sentence and which pronunciation would sound the prettiest.
I’m from Atlantic Canada, and Bob pronunciation can be quite differently from my own and those in this area. His accent is very much an Ontario accent.
Bob the Upper Canadian might be more apt.
Mid and western Canadian accent is almost US accent. But eastern Canadian accent is combination of UK and US accents.
I'm not great at identifying accents, but I've lived in Alberta all my life and I've also had people from the U.S. comment on my accent.
I've also had other people around here ask me where I'm from, so maybe I just have a strange accent or way of talking?
Bob's more of a southern Ontario accent. Depending on where you're from in Ontario (Proximity to Toronto), the accent changes. Up here where Im at, I have the Ottawa Valley twang which actually sounds like a weird Newfoundland/irish hashup. Even more northern Ontario, you will get a lot of Fringlish the closer you get to Hurst and Nipigon areas.
Yes I noticed that he sounds quite like an american
I didn't even know Bob exists, and suddenly I want him to be my friend.
I felt the same way, then proud that he's the one representing Canada. He seems to just be the most stereotypical Canadian there ever was.
He seems like a really nice guy.
The majority of Canadians live in central Canada and that’s why his accent is mostly well known internationally.
Bob and Rachel, both of them, lovely people indeed!
I guess 100 of us also do
why do i feel like bob gives good hugs and also will listen to you when ur having a hard time. he looks so genuine and understanding. very patient aswell
Love this video. I’m a Canadian and this really illustrates the differences. Bob is from Ontario and his speech is somewhat different from Western Canada.
Yes quite different from Eastern on some words as well.
Quite different for other parts of Ontario.
In his own small little tucked away village? I've never heard anyone speak like that in Ontario.
Yeah there really isn't a standard Canadian accent. There's west coast, especially in Vang-coover, where someone put California and BC in a blender, then there's the prairies where I grew up and it's a bit more of a hick sound, then Ontario's got that slick Toron'na accent , possibly the best candidate if you had to pick ONE accent to be "Canadian" since it tends to feature on TV like the CA and NY accents feature in the US, and then you hop over the catastrophe which is the Quebec accent and get out into the Atlantic provinces with their accents barely tweaked from the British isles.
@@untitled-youtube-channel Bob has a pretty standard small town southern Ontario accent. The Greater Toronto Area and the larger cities along the 401 (Kitchener, Waterloo, Cambridge, Guelph and London) all sound similar but if you go a little North (Barrie, Orillia, Owen Sound, Orangeville) or South-West away from the QEW/403 (Welland, Fort Erie, Port Dover, Caledonia) the accent is more like Bob's.
Bob's accent is how we speak in Ontario and it’s what the world generally thinks of when they think of a Canadian accent. Each province has it’s own accent though.
in alberta (where im from) if an american were to talk to someone in my area theyd mistake them for a boot leg canadian because the accent is so impossibly suddle
I mean yeah, she probably should’ve got him to say where he’s from as it’s the same for both England and America. You can drive 30 miles in England and people have a completely different accent. Obviously you can’t fit it all in one video.
@@boneshakerjake especially if they're from one of the border states
@@chadfalardeau5396 I live in the middle of my province nowhere near the border its like none of us have an accent here if you were to visit olds
Even northern and southern Ontario, Torontonian, and near Windsor have different accents and words. (my buddy from Windsor says Malk)!
Big province, so makes sense
I absolutely love how Bob the Canadian gives context for each of his answers! He gave me so much more appreciation for how we pronounce English here in Ontario, Canada! I would love to have representatives from the East Coast.. West Coast and Northern Canadian English accents compared as well. I think that would be so much fun.. and highly educational for everyone for Canadians and the rest of world. I don't think there has been anyone really doing this in any real depth yet! I know it would be highly entertaining for sure!!
Why is everyone in the comments canadian
@@MrGuestYT
Well, we know how to internet and we also know how to end questions with a question mark.
We care enough!
Having lived all across Canada, I couldn't agree more. There can be some striking regional differences, not only in pronunciation, but also is lexicon. Newfoundland may be the best example, but certainly NS and NB as well.
I’m also from southern Ontario and I agree that we have multiple ways we pronounce some words.
It’s definitely us battling the US and British influences! 😂
The thing about how Bob pronounces Toronto is that it is actually regional. Most Torontonians and a lot of Ontarians will pronounce it like him, but people in the other provinces will usually pronounce it closer to the way Rachel does and when talking with outsiders some people (like me) will pronounce all the letters the way Lucy does. The very short Toronto tells you that the person speaking has either lived in the city or at least in Ontario for some time; it's quite distinctive.
I am from about 50 km east of Toronto. We pronounce it "T'rawnna" or "Torawnna".
True. The rest of Canada says all the t's. Tor- on- tow
I feel you'd have fun analyzing a Newfoundland accent. It's very distinctive and different from the rest or Canada, it's more similar to an Irish accent. The terminology in Newfoundland is also very unique, for example a porch or deck is called a bridge. Also, unlike the rest of Canada, Newfoundlanders don't say 'eh?', instead they prefer 'b'y' or 'eh b'y?'. The dialect within the province is vastly varied, it can be generalized into two categories of 'townie' and 'bayman' accents, though these can differ from town to town. Townies tend to have much more mild accents, whereas Baymen tend to talk even faster and can be incomprehensible to anyone no native to the island. I moved to Newfoundland at five years old and still have occasional struggles in understanding thicker Newfoundland accents. Even after twenty-five years I am asked about once a week where I am from, because Newfoundlanders can recognize that my accent isn't native.
My husband is from New Brunswick and he had a shirt that made no sense to me it said " I gots to get me gun b'ye"( I think I got that right. I'm from Manitoba and when his family came out for a visit I heard a distinctive accent. Lol
Newfies have a very distinct accent. It takes some getting used to for the rest of us. If the Newfie is from a fishing town......you will have difficulty understanding them.
Oh heavens yes.
A Newfoundlander and someone from Ireland would be an interesting pair to contrast.
It can't be done, it's been tried and all have failed LoL
Is it just me or Bob is really cute and looks like a Beaver?
What sort of beaver? Rodent or the other kind?
Haha! Agree. A really cute and smiling beaver.
(Bob is a very kind and decent teacher.)
He looks rather like a quokka, a nice smiling animal :)
Bob is a wonderful person and a brilliant teacher, but in this video when he's on pause he reminds me Harold Hide the pain for some reason (sorry, Bob)
I’m Canadian and that just made me spit laughing also that’s hilarious because of the stereotype of Canada and beavers
To me, the conclusion is that Canadians somehow have found a middle ground between American and British English. They will use either or both as may seem situationally comfortable. The same applies equally to vocabulary. Canadians know the English vocab, but also the American vocab, and will use either depending on their age, or maybe region.
Canadian English heavily favours the standard English spelling.
Coming from a student: using applications like google docs is always a pain in the rear as there is no “Canadian English” setting, so I have to settle for either British or American English, which both will always attempt to change my spelling because we sit in between (due to British roots, but being close to the US) 😭
Yes and no. I'm a Canadian and I can't picture any Canadian ever saying "petrol station" unless perhaps they were on vacation in the UK and even then, I expect most would ask where the nearest gas station is. (I'm not sure what the average Brit would picture if asked that question: would they understand that a petrol station was intended or would they have a different idea?)
@@sweiland75 I think as Canadians we're more of a mish mash of the 2 as the OP stated. We tend to use the British spellings of OUR instead of OR (Colour > Color, Honour > Honor, Valour > Valor) but then we also almost always use American spellings of Z instead of S (Realize > Realise, Analyze > Analyse, Cozy > Cosy & Apologize > Apologise)
For the most part Canadians will use American vocab but English spelling.
As a Canadian from Ontario I definitely hear thicker Canadian accents than Bob’s around here.
It is funny to hear the same thing in rapid succession. You can really feel the Canadian speed of speaking (Ontario accent is one of the least inflected accents and we speak fast and clear, which is why so many Canadians become successful American news readers!)
I moved to Jamaica from Ontario 12 years ago, where I'd been born and lived until age 57 (white guy raised in a rural area), and I still have to deliberately slow down so even standard English speakers can understand me. Often, they'll just stare blankly at me when I ask for something in a store. As a result, I've had to learn and use a lot of Patois. Also, when I run into Americans, they're confused as to where I'm from - they know I sound different, but they have no idea why. It seems most of them aren't familiar with a Canadian accent in the slightest. But I can always tell Americans and Canadians apart as soon as they open their mouths. Canadians sound normal, Americans don't.
I'm a Canadian and I usually pronounce process differently depending on whether it is a noun or verb
Exactly
I'm Canadian from Ontario, like Bob, and his accent is certainly representative of this province. Elsewhere in Canada like in the west and, especially, the east, the words in the video can be pronounced very differently and, yes, 'aboot' does exist in Canada, just not in Ontario :) Thanks for the video; I enjoyed it.
As a Canadian (Ontario) who taught in England for 8 years, I was always told I sounded Irish. It took a while to figure out but I think it's the "r" sound, as in "car" that you can hear Bob using. It's also the rhythmic nature of Canadian English which shows Ontario's Irish settler roots. In the mid-1800s the population doubled with Irish settlers.
Many Irish, Scots, and West of England people settled in Canada and the State, bringing their "r" pronounciation with them. The Boston and New York areas were largely settled by people from the east of England, where "r" is pronounced "ah." Hence pronunciations like "HAH-vud" for "Harvard." (Think of JFK's accent.)
I'm originally from the Philippines and when I moved here in Canada, in Toronto, I was prepared to hear that stereotypical "aboot" coming here from some people. When I started to adjust a bit I realized that most (southern Ontario) Canadians pronounce their "ou"s with what sounds like a Scottish inflection (like how the Scottish pronounce "ou" in "about", at least to my ears).
With regards to my own American-influenced Philippine English accent, I think it hasn't changed that much, sometimes in purpose, sometimes not haha
Think its more the heavier influence of Scottish in Canada tbh, hence aboot, oot. This is the way Scots say it, not the Irish.
Man, I get that too here in Jamaica when I run into Americans! (Retired here from Ont 12 years ago). I was raised in a rural area north of Toronto. I thought it was just me!
I've heard that as well.
I was born in Britain, grew up in Canada (with British parents) and have lived in the United States for 30 years. These two videos have been very fun. I feel I’m tri-dialectical and tend to modify my language and pronunciation depending upon with whom I am speaking. The odd thing is that wherever I am, they they think I am from elsewhere!
Sorry, Andrew, but you can't say "very fun". A lot of fun, great fun, etc, but not "very". An adverb (very) cannot describe a noun (fun).
@@jeandixon586 You should have put a smiley on your comment. 🙂 Because if you think that was improper grammar, then you obviously haven't been to the Maritimes. That sentence is perfectly legible to me, and even could have been 'right some fun'.😁 We will also sometimes put verbs, and prepositions at the ends of sentences..... because you can, and it is still 'proper' English. Cheers!😊
Great video, I love this idea! It’s so incredibly important for English learners to be exposed to different kinds of English accents. Thanks for the amazing video, Lucy! 🥳
Thank you so much Csabi! I am so glad you liked it :)
@@EnglishwithLucy Dear Mrs Lucy, i'm so glad to listen to your lessons, perfectly explained by you; your method is clear and easy and is very interesting learning english and its various shades (for example, American accent with Vanessa, Australian accent with Emma, Canadian accent with Bob, etc ecc); at this point, i'm curious to listen and learn the differences between British English and Irish English (in one of your interesting and wonderful videos). I send you a lot of kisses and hugs, my dear Lucy....you're a very qualificated and professional english teacher and a pretty & good person, signed Benedetta!!!!!!!!😘❤️
It really is, and also holds true for other languages. I am American, so Spanish obviously is a useful secondary language to learn, which I pursued. I had two teachers during my early years of learning it, one with an accent from Mexico, and another with an accent from Spain. It was one of those details I hadn't previously considered, but there was significant difference between them.
In Japan (where I've been teaching English in public schools for a long time now), the government has mandated teaching American English specifically to make sure everyone is learning the same thing. I still hear some students using British or Australian pronunciations sometimes though because of their former teachers. It's fun to hear the differences in English pronunciation through a Japanese accent.
I am not really sure what I get out of these videos (as a Canadian in Alberta), but for some reason, I immensely enjoy them. Thanks, and well done.
also from alberta!!!
I was raised in NZ since I was 11 & I'm trying to find out what kind of accent I have since I've been told I don't sound Kiwi! 😂
@@rozhin6055
Kookaburra accent? 😁
@@JB-yb4wn lol 😂😂
actually what Rachel did for toronto is not standard US English at all, she might have lived close to canadians calling it toron-o, dropping the second T in this word is a very toronto/canadian thing. Most americans i met to date do pronounce the second T.
I grew up near a much smaller Toronto, Toronto, Ohio, along the Ohio River. I use the second T, but some hillbillies say Toronno.
Agree with you. From Ontario, near Toronto… and we just don’t pronounce the second T.
Lol, you're right. I have lived all over the US and traveled to 46 of 50 states. Most people don't drop the T in Toronto or Internet.
@@rachelnelson8694 I was coming to the comments to say this. I've lived south, midwest, California, and now East Coast (Virginia). My dad was in the Air Force so I mixed with people from all over growing up. Rachel's pronunciation is not always exactly standard American (ie movie or broadcast), but pretty close.
Most people across the lake in Upstate NY like myself say it the same way -unconsciously dropping the 2nd T. Same as Bob and lots of Ontario residents.
Canadian here. Bob is really holding it up representing us very well here in Canada!!! Great vid!
I'm Canadian, and I find "bagel" is another good word to hear an accent come out, in my experience. I and many Canadians around me usually say "BEHG-ul", while many Americans would say "BAY-gul".
NY or South Philly it's more BEH-gel
At the risk of sounding picky, your second sentance should be "Many Canadians around me and I usually say......"
Another horrendoous error "Me and Bob went skating." where it should be Bob and I went skating."
@@billkohrman107 My parents were very particular about this rule when I was young. They would continually correct us, and eventually we would always use this rule. I correct my son as well now. I do remember learning this in school as well. I always notice now when "me and so and so" is used. Lol
@@Nikki7B I'm French Canadian and I have same experience. I also notice when people say it wrong :P
Another in french is people say ''assume'' when they actually mean ''presume''. I assume they got that from American media
My NYer husband cringes at how I (a Canadian) pronounces “bagel”
When Bob said "Sorry", I felt that...
I love hearing the different accents but when I hear Rachel I get a warm feeling hearing American pronunciation.
Gotta love Bob the Canadian. Always so smooth and soothing when he talks.
Well said. Same here.
I love the way Lucy speaks English. I'm in love with her accent 😁
Having watched both these vids, as a Western Canadian I feel like my pronunciation is more similar to Rachel's than Bob's. I'd say my accent is nearly identical to the Washington state American accent, despite being 20 hrs from there.
Fun fact… it’s a very widely known and recognized thing around Toronto that people outside of Toronto almost always really pronounce the second T, especially in American broadcasts. They say, Tor-ron-toe”. If you’re from Toronto or close surrounding area, you REALLY drop the second T. It’s pronounced like “Trawno”.
Love the channel and these videos. More 🇨🇦 Bob! He’s so quintessential Canadian.
I would LOVE to see one of these collabs where Lucy, Rachel and Bob attempt to emulate each others accents.
Hello Netropolis.
It's easy to imitate UK english: push your lips forward like you're blowing a kiss and drop all consonants, other than the first one, that can't be said in that fashion: "wah" instead of "war", "ruh- nuh" instead of "runner". When in doubt, slide your throat/voice box down... and mumble. Easy!!
I love these three teachers 😍 I’ve been learning a lot from them, now I can speak English front of the camera more smoothly. THANK YOU MY TEACHERS
Great job!
a great love from Vietnam 🥰
@@MichaelJosephJr My English is well. I just see to watch lucy. She is so beautiful.❤❤ She should enter politics.
Fascinating. I'm a relatively old American who grew up in the Detroit area of the US. I speak with practically the same accent as your American guest, but I also almost always say "'eh" as a sentence ending. I think its because all my ancestors came from Canada in the last 100 years and "eh" was a very strong holdover for my grandparents. I actually don't remember my parents using it, at all, so I'm just guessing it came from my grandparents. But, I DO use it, all the time, and I can't say that my children use it, so maybe its just someing strange about me. Lol. Very interesting video.
I'm from the prairies in Canada and I found I use the British pronunciations for : avenue, against (but not again), adult (for an individual, but weirdly when I hear the N.A. way it sounds dirty to me or a descriptor not a person - like adult theme warnings), and even weirder, since I live far from Toronto I do pronounce the 2nd T!
I'm just pleased that Bob demonstrated, without *thinking* about it, the use of 'eh' in one of his examples. (flashback to part 1)
Much more common in Ontario
@@brianorr308 Yup. Noted in the other video, eh!
:-D
Technically, he only demonstrated one use in three sentences.
This is an actual conversation I had while leaving the North Bay Armoury after cadets:
"Whoa, it's windy, eh?"
"Cold, too, eh?"
"Going to need the winter uniforms soon, eh?
"Yeah, eh?"
"Think they'll have them ready in time?"
"I dunno, eh?"
@@threenorns3 Followed several months later by "Whoa, how about them shad flies, eh?"
[shudder.... memories of a *really* heavy invasion back around 1980 or so, that coincided with a garbage strike. Days upon days of those beasties washing up on the beach at Camp Tillicum (used as a Sea Cadet camp at the time), having to be shoveled into an every-growing pile.... which inevitably spawned a *lot* of maggots. Gross, eh?]
Hello Lucy,
Thank you for bring all the teachers all around the world into this channel and helping us to clarify and verify the differences. You're doing a Top-notch help for us especially in the part of English.
I'm tremendous grateful for you! 😊
You're very welcome!
I’ve just realize the reason why for me, particularly, it is easier to understand British English; those elongated pronunciations for certain words make me identify those words easier
As someone with a north Jersey/NYC mix accent I say Caught much different and the way it's pronounced in the US we vary widely in pronunciations even in north and south parts of certain states with pronunciations of sounds.
The Canadian difference between process and process is that it's usually pronounced differently depending on tense. In the past it's pronounced as "pr-aw-cess" but in the present or future it's "pr-oh-cess."
In Canada, we have legislation that states that saying "sorry" is not admissible as evidence of guilt in court.
Failure to say sorry, however, could cost you your citizenship.
@@threenorns3 I wouldn't go that far, it might cause people to question your citizenship, but it wouldn't get you disowned.
Bob you're an absolute hero. Thank you for taking the time to explain everything in more detail. Cheers bud
I am spanish teacher, and I have contact with many people who speaks English, so this videso helps me a lot. And when I speak english I mix pronunciations a lot! Some words I pronounce like american, other like british...
So interesting to hear these different accents. Love Bob's for sure.
This is interesting. You might consider doing a video on American regional accents and pronunciation, because they can be very different.
i mean that can apply to all the countries in this video. im canadian and some of the things bob says doesn't apply to me.
Even within regions you can have many differences in accents and vocabulary
For just about any country, that would be a long video! I'm from Indiana, and here we don't pronounce "cot" and "caught" alike, as Rachel does, we say the two words differently (pretty much the same way Lucy does, oddly enough).
I LOVE your comparative vids! Some of the most informative content I've came across recently
Really impressive and comprehensive. Thanks for putting this together!
I was waiting for the second part of that lesson, I'm very glad! You didn't let me down!
Thanks to yours, Lucy, Bob 'n' Rachel, keep it up!
Glad you enjoyed it!
@@EnglishwithLucy
Yes, anytime! Thanks for your reply!
Love you much!
@@EnglishwithLucy can you do a part 3
bob is so cute i love the way when he speaks
British, English, Canadian, and Australian Englishes started really blending together in the late 90's/early 2000's, as we were able to consume each other's media/shows more.
Bob is so friendly
I like this collaboration, Bob is my favorite teacher, his Chanel is one of the best to learn English🔔💼✏️
Such an interesting and informative video! As a person who has lived in Canada before and now living in the UK, this was quite fun to watch :)
Ok but I love ur DP armyy!!💜
I have just found your channel, quite randomly, but I am thrilled I did because I have been loving the comparisons of (UK/US/AUS & others) how the English language is spoken. The pronunciations of everyday words is amazing😃
Thank you Ms. Lucy, this video is really useful for me. Before watching this video I can't hear the difference between these three accents, and now I can.
i laughed when Lucy said sorry like an American. It sounded so perfect.
I love this! Here’s all my favorite Teachers! What a wonderful lesson😊
Thank you for doing this. It's been both instructional and fun 😁
Love your vids, they’re always good fun and mightily educational. As a Brit with a faded scouse accent I find the nuances of accents absolutely fascinating. Keep them coming!
It's always a joy to hear "Hello and welcome back to English with Lucy!" :) because that means the beginning of a new fantastic lesson to follow! :D
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR BRINGING SUCH GOOD LESSONS FOR US, FEELS BLESSED TO HAVE SUCH TEACHERS, THANK YOU ONCE AGAIN!!
I'm a Canadian living in Scotland, sometimes people think I'm Irish. I think it's because it makes more regional sense that I would be Irish, plus some similarities and the WIDE variety of Irish accents. Most people assume I'm American, but some will guess I'm Canadian and be really proud of themselves, they'll likely have a Canadian friend or relative. Fun video!
Similarly I'm from Sask and lived in Australia for 2 years and a lot of people thought I was Irish. I had 3 different Irish people tell me they thought I was Irish, even after having a few mins of conversation with them. I thought it was so strange cause I don't think I sound anything like them? But then most Australian's thought I was American. Even my boss for thought I was American for like 4 months.
I absolutely love this! wonderful content - thank you very much.
The really interesting thing about pronunciation is just how much it will change based on smaller regions not just countries. You could probably do countless similar video with only British English and the same would go for American and Canadian English as well.
Thanks a lot for the teaching, Miss Lucy
As a Canadian (born and raised in Toronto, which, btw is two syllables [Trawno]), I would stress the first syllable of 'adult' when using it as a noun, but I would stress the second syllable when using it as an adjective
I’m Canadian and live in BC, but born and raised in Alberta. I do not speak words the way Bob from Ontario does. I say Toronto with the second T pronounced. I’m not from there and I have been told that saying the second T clearly indicates that I am not from there. 😂. There were a few other examples of Bob’s pronunciation that I didn’t agree with as well. Too many to list here; however, my pronunciation would be closer to Lucy’s in those instances than Rachel’s.
Such an OUTSTANDING video. I absolutely loved it. I'm traveling all around Canada, I follow Bob and Lucy. I didn't have the pleasure to meet Rachel before. Make more of these videos, guys.
I've been looking forward to this video. Thanks Lucy!
Really enjoyed this series. It would be great to explore vocabulary and pronunciation diffences between UK, Australian, and South African English. I met a SA girl at a London hostel and had no clue where she was from.
This is fascinating, thanks for sharing. I am Canadian living in Southwestern Ontario but grew up living with my grandparents (English and Welsh) so I definitely hear bits and bobs of British English in the way I pronounce words (and never really noticed).
I'm from Toronto, but have relatives in SW Ontario. I hear a definite "twang" wnen I speak with them. It shouldn't surprise really; think of the size of Ontario alone vs England and how many accents England has.
Just saw your channel 3 days ago and I liked it.....
I'm glad and helpful to improve my English with Lucy...
The fact that now I'm able to distinguish the Canadian accent is astonishing! Not only do I love your videos, but also learn more about English 💕 Thank you Lucy for making this possible 😊✨
Very enjoyable with nice guests and a charming host. Very nice video. Now I'm going to check out the others. Thanks, Lucy 👍👍👍👍
Props to Rachel for being efficient.
This is so amazing Lucy you're really teaching so many people from every corners of the world, thank you for always bringing us interesting lessons.
Hi ☺️ Welcome to check and improve your English listening and understanding skills by hearing conversations by different native speakers.
I really love and enjoyed your videos especially the comparisons among accents. I hope to see all four British, American, Canadian, and Australian accents all together. Thank you, Lucy, for always providing us great video contents!
This was entertaining and educational, my favorite combo. Loved Bob's explanation for using two pronunciations: I do it with ēthur/īthir.
Only one point I'd like to take exception to: dropping the T. Aaugh! I'm an American that just wants to correct the offender. No problem w/ dropping the G in an informal conversation. But the T, ugh...
As an Italian English learner, I always get confused about the huge differences between words like "bottle" and "partner". Try to say "a little bottle of water" from British to American accent , it makes such a difference that is seems like hearing 2 completely different statements ... LOL... Anyway, Lucy's laugh is a gift to the mankind! Keep on doing such great things 🙏👍
I'm a Canadian learning Italian and I swear you guys have 15 different accents, so consider yourself lucky!
Splendid!! Never have I ever had such once in lifetime chance to know much more about the difference of the same language in such notoriously fun way ever , Lucy you got this.
I was really waiting for second part.. Thank u LUCY for the wonderful video.
Can you please make more such kind of videos as I want to know how other countries use to pronounce the words.
And Again thanks for such a great video, Lucy!🥰
Hi Lucy, love your videos I find them very entertaining and informative. I speak west coast USA English and Mexican/American Spanish. Keep up the good work!
I'd love so much to see a part 3 with words with the letter O at the end of the words. :) Nice videos Lucy !
PLEASE BRING UP VOCABULARY videos NOW!! loads of love lucy
I do appreciated this class. It's interesting for English learners to distinguish these differences. As far as I understand this kind of class improves our listening comprehension.
Hello Wanda
Thank you so much! I really enjoyed these. I am a native German who at one point had an Irisman as an English teacher at school, but has spent a lot of his professional career travelling to all three countries on a regular basis. So my own accent is a wild mixed bag, but hardly anyone ever places me in Germany, which I am kinda proud of. ;-)
On top of that, one of my closest colleagues is from Australia. And while I was watching this and found a lot of differences I had picked up on my travels, the way the people in the Chelsea TV series pronounce the word „better“ actually reminds me a lot of how the Australian colleague, who is from Brisbane, pronounces the same word „better“. So while that softened t might have crept in from them being well-travelled and spending a lot of time in the U.S., at least this example reminds me a lot more of Australian rather than American.
Another British/American/Canada comparison would be spelling such as tyre/tire, colour/color, realise/realize, etc.
Thank you so much for the lesson🌼
Lucy your way of teaching English is
INEXPRESSIBLE..
Canadian pronunciations do spill over to the US. Visit areas north of Detroit (New Baltimore/Algonac) and you will hear (eh?) almost as much as in Ontario. Wisconsin, Michigan's upper peninsula and Minnesota also have Canadian undertones in their coversational english.
Great video! Thank you very much for this content! 😊❤
I am not acquainted with other two teachers but I've been learning from Lucy for 1 year and have learned a lot from her. Thank you Lucy and love you a lot🥰
"Noit acquainted" Nigga, you in a James Bond movie?
@@syko6973 what do you mean? By the way I rarely watch movies.
*FANTASTIC LESSON..*
Great video! Thoroughly enjoyed it!
I think of process as having the wider pronunciation for the noun form, whereas the narrower pronunciation is used more for the verb form.
Thank you mam ..... I've been learning speaking English with this channel for almost 1 year.... I'm from Bangladesh... Love you Mam🥰🥰
