These videos will probably be the ones with the most members from a single country ( I know that UK it's 4 ) , I've never seen so many Brits in one video on the channel before
Actually it's 3. Northern Ireland isn't a country
@@stinkygremlin267 There is no universally agreed upon way to refer to Northern Ireland, and it can be a politically fraught issue. Even the UK government itself has officially called Northern Ireland multiple different things: a country, province, and region.
@@notabot2351 6 counties/ Ulster if you ask someone from the republic. I’m Scottish and we look at it very differently, it’s seen as Ireland but ‘the British part’.
I like to be called English thx I'm from England
A few times when I was in London I thought,”I can tell this person is speaking English, but I have no idea what they are saying.” Just because two people speak the same language doesn’t mean communication will be easy. 😂
You’re right, I can relate as well when it comes to Arabic, in some instances, Arabic speakers of different regions will find themselves having to speak English because chances are the English they both will have learnt will be similar, more so than trying to decipher each’s regional Arabic, especially if from another continent or a far away culture 😂😂 although if time is not of the essence, it’s often fun
That's ok in London, cockneys rarely say anything interesting or relevant, 😉
As a Scottish person I can understand any native speakers accent. I’m bilingual (tri if you count scots) and once you’ve learned another language you can pick apart accents and languages.
@@boxtradums0073 Just learn how to speak English. You're not even supposed to have a different accent if you forgot how to speak your own language Gaelic or Scots or whatever. Learn proper English and none of that stupid crap. Thanks
I guess you can sometimes see accents as different languages in the same written words
Filming with this group was such a lovely experience😭 I LAUGHED SO HARD AT THIS VIDEO🤣🇬🇧❤️
Great see you again with your British friends , Lauren 👏
You're the best. I'm looking forward to new videos.
Looks like you have a really nice, fun group of people there. I guess nowadays it's the sun never sets where British people are hanging about and having a laugh.
ello lauren... ❤😍
There's a big difference between understanding an accent and knowing where the accent is from - the latter is probably much easier.I don't think the samples used here were particularly difficult to understand this time.
1:28 "eleven" not "the Raven"
3:47 "timbre", not "timber".
4:05 "geezer", not "gazer".
6:37 "If they'd", not "If they've".
7:05 "Appalled", not "Applaud".
yeah. i think the channel is actually korean? so the guests accents throw them off i think.
@@MrAbeAllen The subtitles and captions used to be a complete trainwreck with up to half of the words wrong. But they seem to have upped their game here, with only some of the more spicy words off. Unfortunately, those are the ones that matter most.
@@ManuelRuiz-xi7bt I have commented before that the channel needs to improve. It really doesn’t help English learners especially if a key word is erroneously captioned.
@@MrAbeAllen I guess That is why they are choosing these cultural videos
Gayzer
Fun fact: Geordie's accent is actually Jade Thirlwall from Little Mix
No wonder they thought it sounded kinda sing-song-y. 😄
the other one is i think a girl from girls aloud faking her age on a talent show
@@laurensutcliffe9081 nadine?
And also Petrie Edwards
I was looking for another mixer to recognize it 😄
British accents are so diverse and hence so beautiful
As a portuguese, I totally understood what he said about sounding portuguese
When I go to my country on vacations and I return, my gf can't understand me at all for the first days because my accent gets way stronger
Não pareceu nada de Tuga
The best part of this, for me, is the fact that whoever is doing the subtitles is often completely confounded by the accents as well and just regularly writes the wrong translation. It's not a nick pick btw, it just really drives home the point of this video hahahah
I'm also curious as to whether the Americans would fare decently in this, i.e. identifying Brit accents from across the UK. I'd wager a lot of money that they wouldn't do that well... despite the fact that (I'd presume) those who come on this show are fairly exposed to such accents... (well they'd be more familiar than your average person. Presumably).
As a Yank I love British accents. But this vid definitely needs a part 2: Bristol/West Country, Cornwall (English not Cornish), Yorkshire, East Anglian, and some of the Midlands dialects like Derby and Brummie/ Black Country
Loved the roasting at the end xD
Please don’t play the music while they are talking it makes it hard to hear what they’re saying.
The sweetest channel. Cheers from the Pacific West Coast of Canada
Some words of the subtitles are wrong , but I understood mostly of them
I feel like a Chinese person wrote those. Someone whose English is "above average", but still not quite the there yet.
@@marioluigi9599 Still not quite there yet*
there's no need for a "the" after quite.
@@bottle7142 Really???? Never! !
Nadine coyle’s accent is really soft, my granda had the thickest Belfast accent and as a wain I had no clue what he was saying 😭 my da became my English to English translator lmao
That was superb guys....❤
I enjoyed it a lot...Lettie is so adlrable 😂
Warm regards from Argentina.
I'm surprised they called that Geordie accent strong. As someone who lived up there for a while, I thought it was a pretty weak accent!
Aye hinge it is canny weak, compared to me ma and da
actually jade thirlwall (the girl spoke in the clip) has thick geordie accent. since she was on a radio of bbc, somehow she'd got to weaken her accent so that people could understand what she was talking bout. you might find many videos on youtube which contain clips of her (and another group member - perrie) real thick geordie accent.
I didn't pick up on it being Jade tbh . Considering I'm from County Durham I haven't really got a strong accent
As a Portuguese I’m offended 😭😭😭 Loved the video ❤️❤️❤️
Nice video ❤ For non British people, it would really help if there is map or just some text to say which location it is from
If you want to be able to tell the difference between an English accent and a Scottish accent group listen to how the R’s are pronounced. In England they dont roll them but in Scotland they do. Also an A in the middle of a word is pronounced like an A in ‘laat’.
Fun Fact: The first geordie accent was Jade from Little Mix a British girl band
Yeah I knew I recognised that voice 😂
I’m a biggest fan of Little Mix ❤
@@danielescarfo4973 same
The way this video was edited is so confusinggg. At first, you have no idea why they're looking to the side sometimes, then, we can't hear what someone is saying off camera, so suddenly there's a cut to their reaction to something someone said and we have no idea what happened. Also, we can't see the video they're watching so it makes it so confusing when their mouths are not moving but the sound is playing and after some recordings finish, there are cuts to them speaking and it's hard to realize it so quickly.
not perrie and jade of little mix 😭😭
I wish I could have actually heard the speakers and it would be fun to see what they said in text because as an American, I couldn’t understand anything and I would have liked to know where these accents come from. The videos are not as interesting as they could be because I don’t think you are thinking much about your audience and are just focused on yourselves and having fun. Which is cool but it could be so much better.
Quite agree, and the accents were very mild.
I only got the Geordie one, and only because I recognised the interview it was from💪
Scouse, think Beatles, especially George, but you always have to remember they were trying to speak so Americans could understand them, so they'd slow it down and take the edges off it. Cockney, I think Roger Daltrey of the Who, I think they're Middlesex, but towards the east end. Glaswegian, AC/DC, but you have to remember they spent some time in Australia. Birmingham, Black Sabbath. Irish, U2. Welsh, Tom Jones. I always struggle with Geordie and Yorkshire, because I can't think of bands off the top of my head with those accents, maybe some of you from the UK can suggest some.
Nah im sorry but The Beatles lost their accent's early on.
Roger Daltrey is from west London. Not a Cockney.
I'm American! I love British people! I wanna visit the UK again
Where is someone from Wales 🏴? Northern Ireland 🇯🇪? Only from England 🏴 and Scotland 🏴? 🤔
Mates I can't believe it my water turned into a tea after playing the video lol .

Love ur channel, but i cant understand why is it so hard for you to finally get some proper audio.
What's wrong with it tho?
I’m Japanese.
My cousin are mixed race Japan and U.K.
They speak British English. The kind of their British English is Birmingham accent. But, I listen to their English many time, but, I don’t get it.
🤣That's called Brummie, and it's 1 of the most difficult English accents to understand, if you're not a native speaker.I would add a strong Glaswegian, Scouse, Cornish, or Rural Irish along with that, as the most difficult variations of the British, or Irish accent, I have heard
@@Rowlph8888 I think non-natives struggle with most British accents except for standard Received Pronunciation, honestly, because media is overwhelmingly North American.
I'm from Yorkshire and most non-natives I've spoken to can't understand my accent! And I don't even have a particularly strong Yorkshire accent because I live in the US!
Northern Irish came from Scotland, Emily. Not Wales.
Merseyside, Lancashire? They've been two different places for decades
She had an interview back then, and she mentioned that she lives like near border of Merseyside and Lancashire.
@@yuhdlwrm And? Merseyside and Lancashire are two distinct places. Either you live in one or the other
@@olliew9487 I suppose so. I was also confused about where she was from 😅
@@olliew9487 Maybe pointing the exact location on the UK.
Depends how old you are, and the old boundaries still apply when cricket or youth football are concerned.
what's the accent of fourth video.
The Scouser girl said, "My Nan won the lottery" and not a single one of them caught that.
how many accents in the uk?
so different with lesson in my school...
East Londoners are usually
Cockney speakers ..
East Londoners are now Bengali speakers.
We need American accent version of this video.
Yes please !! 😃 Standard American, East Coast, New York, Brooklynese, Bostonian, Texan, Deep South, Minnesotan, Chicagoan and many others !! 😄
I would like to see a version with the different Scottish accents.
Agreed.
not yall using perrie and jade
Oh My God this is Our Divers of Britons i love the people....
Felix is so handsome and cute~
Amazing video!!!!
Emily spoke "mas" in a Brazilian portuguese accent ( mas means but) instead but, when they talk that seemed portuguese, then she returned to talk in english, saying "but".
Didn't she say she was half Brazilian or something?
Sim, ela trocou o "but" pelo "mas". O engraçado é que a equipe que colocou a legenda entendeu a confusão e colocou em inglês na legenda (?)
An Aberdeen accent/dialect - 'foo ye deein a day?' / how are you doing today?
These subtitles are all messed up.
Needs more variety, a bunch of people from the South and a Scot. No Midlands, no Welsh. Even the one who is apparently from the Lancashire sounds like a posh little Southerner.
Is this a korean youtube channel? Are they in korea?
please do europeans doing dna test
Little mix 😅❤
0:50 it’s like a British Boston accent
She said "me nan won da lottery". And yeah, that accent sounds a lot like German. Like "book" sounds exactly like the German translation "Buch". That sound is a typical German sound too.
Whatever
Looked to me like both groups got all the answers right. I was confused at the end.
Please do one of them trying to understand the hardest American accents.
Which US accents are difficult to understand?
@@j2174 some really thick southern accents can be hard to understand.
@@itscoral Like?
@@j2174 Alabama is one example. My husband's family is from there and there are a couple of family members that I have a hard time understanding at times.
@@itscoral trust me, most American accents are quite easy to understand lol. The diversity is lacking since most of the accent influence is from a small bit of England around Bristol.
This video shows that foreigners aren't bad in terms of listening cause accent makes it much more difficult for them, and they feel bad about it.
I got these right because, like a lot of Aussies, I have a British background - but it would have been easier to see the videos instead of hearing them!
Yup. The "British accent" that people love so much is actually the "Queen's English." Glorified because it's the accent of the upper class.
No, the most attractive is Middle-class, Received Pronunciation (RP), Like Beneddict Cumberbatch, Jude Law, or Tom Hiddleston. You are mistaking that for aristocratic like the Queen, or Boris Johnson, or Jacob Rees Mogg.Received pronunciation is far more common, thankfully.
Listen to many of the parasitic, idiotic politicians in Prime Minister's questions (Especially the Queen and those politicians Mentioned) , and compare that to those actors, and you will notice the big difference. Aristocrats have an "affected" more effete accent, which is artificial Sounding and irritating
Queens english is ok, but geordie, brummy, n scouse are more interesting. Love them.
Pretty funny. The Derry one didn't count at all though 😆
Emily such a babe as always
Why are they shouting over the clip if they want to hear it
What about Liam Gallagher's accent?? It is difficult to understand his accent.
He's from Manchester!
@@carolej339 Yeah. I know
Good shout tbf
World. This is why you need to learn midwest American English.
Some of those are more of a dialect than accent in general.
I’m waiting for Americans to say they still speak the original English 🗿
Merseyside Lancashire?
5:19 - That *Glasgow* accent just _does things_ to me... 😳🥴🤤
The reason she think he sounds old Glaswegian coz he’s not uni Glasgow boy Glasgow accent charge throw years
Do this with US dialects/accents please. There are so many and it would be fun. New Orleans/Yat, Cajun, Alabama, St. Louis, Georgia, The Bronx, Brooklyn, Flatbush, Long Island, Philly, New Jersey, Rhode Island, Connecticut, Boston, Southie/south shore Boston, Boston Brahmin, Maine, Yinzer/Pittsburgh, Chicago, Buffalo, Wisconsin, West Virginia/Appalachian, Chicano, south California, Texas, Tidewater/High tide, North Carolina, Baltimore, General North American. There's so many different American accents
Nah They already do a million videos centered around us. I think either they find us fascinating or talking about us generates more views.
Actually I can only spot 3 American accents
1 NewYork/Boston
2 South
3 And everbody else
I think they will. This is a Korean channel and they are clearly very interested, in variations in the Anglosphere.Most of the content seems to revolve around the Brits and the Yanks, either together, or separately
Mitch is 🔥
Cheers 🥰🥰
@@MitchCraig omg hi Mitch! 😅
Why would you not cut out the part where they literally say where they're from in the video lol? Just start the video at 5 seconds or something like come on
It still amazes me how many accents there are in the UK. In the US there’s about 6-8 main accents and we are much larger in land mass and population. It makes me wonder how accents are “created” and what influences them.
Main doesn’t mean all, there’s a lot more, every state and every city too is different
And even then it depends on the person’s nationality or ethnicity and stuff
In England we have over 50. Scotland has a bunch and Wales top
There are way more than 8 US accents. New Orleans/Yat, Cajun, Alabama, St. Louis, Georgia, The Bronx, Brooklyn, Flatbush, Long Island, Philly, New Jersey, Rhode Island, Connecticut, Boston, Southie/south shore Boston, Boston Brahmin, Maine, Yinzer/Pittsburgh, Chicago, Buffalo, Wisconsin, West Virginia/Appalachian, Chicano, south California, Texas, Tidewater/High tide, North Carolina, Baltimore, General North American. There's so many different American accents
It's due to the fact that only until relatively recently, Most people in England never left their home town. This meant that local accents developed almost completely independently. Americans were always expanding into new land and their accents come from the melting pot of people who spoke different languages migrating to particular areas rather than due to isolation.
Appalachian accent would a good reaction
LOVE THISSS
I don’t think that was a very thick Geordie accent! It might be one the weakest I’ve heard! When hardcore Geordies unleash their accent… no away!😂
You cannot understand!
You should do a video with Mitch for example speaking in their native language, Gàidhlig🏴(Scottish Gaelic) or a Welsh person speaking Cymraeg🏴. Their native languages beside English!
Right...we French are underrated.
Always the English speakers and Spanish too 😔
You French have no accents (apart from Quebec) 😀
@@lxportugal9343 We may be part of Latin European countries. Most of it. Greek origin in the South Origins
Bu we also have Germanic influences
We are really diverse
@@christophermichaelclarence6003 and Greek speakers are underrated too 😔🙁☹
@@androidoneiu5206 You're even more underrated. We both are. 😔
Love Greeks 🇫🇷♥️🇬🇷. Don't much like koreans and their Pepsi flag
Wish Cady was here as well 😢

Hi Mitch! 👋🏼
Hi!
@@MitchCraig cool! I liked your participation in this video, keep it up 👍🏼👍🏼
The subtitles are wrong with a lot of words 😂
even these fellas having hard time to understand, for me it's a lost cause!
Wow, never saw the comments. Drop from 26 to 22. Didn't know comments could drop like that.
Greenbelt of green hoodlums is the hostess's college eh?
They all sound the same to me - British.
Armenia 🇦🇲super 🇦🇲❤vidyo 👏🏼hay🤗❤👍
Would've been kinda smart to actually show what they're watching so you can actually hear it. Kind of a wasted video.
incorrect subtitles again
The Scottish guy is clearly lying. There isn’t a Scottish person in the world that cant recognise a scouse and geordie accent. Ffs Geordies accents are basically Scottish we have very similar vocabulary
Who's writing the subtitles to these videos? They're really bad
Thank you.
THERE IS A GAY OVER THERE, CHANGE MY MIND !
So much Britishness... And I'm all for it!
Disclaimer: I don't support colonialism in any way shape or form. A couple centuries ago what I said would be outrageous outside of Britain!

This channel is hilariously bad at proofreading, so there are always a lot of errors in the on-screen text.
You have six Brits in this video. Why not just ask them how you spell "Geordie", for example?
Always the British. No surprise they are lot of them in Korea. Due to Brexit and other reasons
you mad?
Without the British or the Anglosphere.. the world is boring
@@ShireTommy_1916_Somme-Mametz That's for sure. I Guess I was born in the wrong country
@@lukespooky jealous.
That’s one way to defend invasion and colonisation…
Dont you bored by that old lettuce ?
Eh eh. So Bri'ish!
The Scouse accent is not influenced by Norwegian but the dish "lobscouse" comes from Norway
We have it too but it's probably Low German
We call it Lapskaus
Is that English
