When he’s doing a southern American accent, it’s it’s difficult to pinpoint exactly which southern accent that he’s trying to portray as there are several. Where I’m from in the south of the US (Tennessee), we would pronounce, “sky” like “ska”, but the “ah” sound is short. He is also clearly pronouncing, “sense” which the Deep South folks don’t typically do. They would pronounce it like, “sayunts”.

Plot twist, he's not British.. 😅

Can someone tell me which British accent Family Guy's baby Stewie speaks?

Lazy or dumb people say "I could care less". This drives me nuts, as well. "Could care" is wrong and many of us know it.

I find it curious (and curiously I do it naturally) how some people say "this year", kind of having an intruder h between the two words 🤔

Adapt your pitch. I've got very different voices in English, French and German and that's absolutely fine. English has a whole host of stop, devoiced, nasal and aspired sounds. French on the other hand features more voiceless sounds articulated in the mouth area. More English sounds require that airflow be obstructed and then released in one sudden burst.. And English has a fairly balanced amount of voiceless and voiced sounds, which means that vocal cords vibrate way more than in French, which is mainly about voiceless sounds. All those differences make a huge difference in terms of areas most commonly involved to articulate sounds. French is mostly articulated in the mouth area, allowing for a deeper, less nasal voice. English needs more lungs, throat and nose, so it doesn't come as a surprise that you'll end up sounding like a different person from the one who speaks their mother tongue in their so-called "natural voice". I've got so used to switching voices unconsciously that I couldn't even go back to my French voice when speaking English. I know it may sound wacko but the voice is super important if you want to improve your accent. And tip number two: learn the prosodic patterns in English conversation. That's a key element to acquiring a decent accent. And obviously, practice vowel sounds as English has got soooo many vowel sounds that aren't found in other languages. Understanding how the schwa sound is a key component of word stress is also essential, since most reduced vowel sounds (except for /e/ that becomes /i/ when reduced) are pronounced like a schwa. > derogatory: first mission is to spot the stressed syllable. Without further ado, let's reveal the correct answer... The second syllable "ro" is stressed. As a consequence m, the "e" will be reduced to /i/ and all the other vowels are to be reduced to a schwa sound, with the vowel sound in the fourth syllable being almost elided (di-RO-gu-t(u)ri). Voilaaaaa. Once you've wrapped your head around stop consonant sounds and reduced vowel sounds, you've done 90% of the job.

It’s horrific and so “put on”.

annoying, we don't want to learn English!

I'm bilingual (Italian born and raised in an African English speaking country) but what I struggle most with is slang. I just saw you have a video on that! Especially youngsters' slang on the internet. Full of references to TV shows, abbreviations, acronyms. Or maybe it's better to call that jargon? Might be because I don't follow all those tv shows or stuff like that... Actually I don't even watch TV anymore....

Love your videos Tom! My husband and I visited London for the first time in 2017. On our first day there we headed to a local pub for a couple of Guinness and fish and chips. There was a table of 3 men sitting right beside us and we couldn't understand a word they were saying! We are from Canada and many of your slangs, ellipsis' and sayings are used all the time in Canada, yet we couldn't understand them. They spoke what seemed like all slang words and they had very heavy accents. All we could do was laugh.

There's school English then there's English as she is spoke. Thanks for such a great video, really important learning points. I'm sharing this.

British english is trash. _Not_ rubbish. _Trash._ 😏

Reds forever!!!

Devon foxhunting culture: Wee sorz eem roonin left-handed toewardz th Bathswater (Bayswater) Gate. Giving directions to hilltoppers watching a one of the last live fox hunts in UK. Glad it's illegal. But it'll also ring the death bell of a dialect.

Sometimes I think that lots of foreigners speak English better and more correctly than lots of native speakers. Native speakers also make mistakes or sound weird. Being a native speaker doesn't often mean knowing the language well 🙂

OMG South Wales is my favorite!!! Honey for the ears !

He speaks mockney about as false as his characters.He sounds like all those white kids that try to sound like they have Jamaican parents..

Guess the best way to learn diff accents is to listen, speak and interact with ppl. But how do I get the chance to talk to different people but not annoying them?

I will make a long word at 5 replies

As a Geordie and a linguist I must congratulate you on your Geordie pronunciation of 'economically'. It was spot on. For anyone interested, a distinctive aspect of north eastern English (Durham, Tyne and Wear, Northumberland) is that k, p, t sounds between vowels in words like 'lucky/happy/matter' are pronounced with 'glottal reinforcement'. That means they are pronounced simultaneously with a glottal stop. Unlike most glottal stops in British accents it does not replace the consonant. The consonant is still there, it just has a glottal stop within in.

American spoken English is vastly superior.

i find British English so polite, i love it

sydney and melbourne is kinda similar with the pig latin, not quite the same but similar

The only reason is, if you're American.
