treeduck Posted December 18, 2016 Share Posted December 18, 2016 When I was much younger, I thought there were only two kinds of British accents - Twiggy and everyone else. Throughout the years, I have come to find out that you have as many different accents in England as we do in the USA. Can those of you who are native Brits identify where someone is from by their accent? Some of your accents are so dignified and proper; some I can't understand very well.Which can't you understand? I'm watching this DefLep documentary now: https://youtu.be/5FqrGNg5FN4 Their first manager who was given the heave-ho by a New Yorker :) has an accent that's hard to understand. It sounds like he gags out words.Which part of the video does he speak? I think it is part 1. Joe Elliot must have a lower class accent. The drummer ( can't remember his name right now) has a nicer one.They're all from the same town, Sheffield!Then why does Joe sound different? I've done a post about this on the next page. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your_Lion Posted December 18, 2016 Share Posted December 18, 2016 http://youtu.be/jzAD2GLfaNUObviously he's exaggerating. Unfortunately he's not funny.That's the routine that made me dislike Mcintyre. As well as not being funny, it inaccurate.As a Yorkshire lad myself, I'm tired of the way Southerners think we do the glottal stop "t" thing as short for "the".What we actually do is use "t" as short for "to the" ....as in "I'm going t' shops." So when Michael Mcintyre says "T' good, t' bad and t' ugly." what he's actually saying to my Yorkshire ears is "To the good, to the bad and to the ugly." 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
