@@matreen427 Ja, wenn sie sich Mühe geben. Wenn nicht, dann nicht. Es gibt schon Unterschiede, ob man "Hochdeutsch" mit ein wenig Dialekt spricht oder seinen Heimatdialekt. Aber als Muttersprachler hört fast immer, wo jemand her kommt. Yes, if they make an effort. If not then not. There are already differences between speaking "High German" with a little dialect or your home dialect. But as a native speaker, you almost always hear where someone comes from.
Im up for that!! As someome that is from bavaria its so easy to understand austrians but i can imagine if you are from a different part you have a hard time to understand then
This clip is very wonderful... I felt happy to watch it... For the first time I heard the differences in the English language between the United Kingdom, the United States and Australia... This clip deserves a million likes🤩🤩🔥🤍👌🏻
Thanks so much to this three nice ladies. For an English non-native speaker like me, videos like this help us to improve our listening comprehension and recognize the different varieties of pronunciations ... and they enjoy a lot with the comparison.
It would be cool to have a bunch of Americans from different parts of the US to say these words. It would be interesting to hear a southern vs. New York vs. midwest vs. Cali, vs. whomever you get!
I’m not sure what kind of accent I have anymore. I was born and raised in NJ for 31 years then moved to SoCal for a couple years now I’m living in the south east. I’d guess my native NJ accent sticks out the most.
As someone who has grown up with entertainment from UK, US and some AU, I’d find it really interesting if groups of people from different countries spoke certain phrases and these three dissected what similarities they find with their own accent.
We kind of have more than one accent in Australia, it's just that it's not regional like the US and UK but more about how close to the cities you live and also age. The more rural you go the more you'll hear the stereotypical Aussie accent like Steve Irwin (RIP), and the older someone is can also affect it.
I think generally the broader accents are north like Queensland and more UK proper sounding accents in the southern states. Just generally but not everyone. But I agree it’s also broader in country areas and less broad in cities.
One of the most interesting things in the Australian accent, at least to American ears, is the long "o" sound. It's like a trip-thong of three vowel sounds rolled together. It sounds to me like "aou" or "ayow."
Here in Australia I guess you’ll hear 3 accents. The best examples I could give is 1. The Cate Blanchett accent (slightly uk influenced) 2. The Steve Irwin/crocodile Dundee accent (the stereotypical Aussie accent lol) 3. Hugh Jackman (which in my opinion is the more common accent I hear here in Aus) I’m more of the Hugh Jackman lol but with my own ethnic touch to it. but depending on your ethnic background/cultural background, that could affect your accent too!
As an American, I never thought I would describe someone as having a heavy American accent, but this person here sure does. So I don't think she 100% represents what we all sound like, but is definitely good for a comparison since her accent is so extreme.
Most American accents are extreme! Personally I do not like American accent is too much RRR .. is grot . No offence. British accent is clear and nice also Australian is quite cool
@@francescamancini3880 I wouldn't call the British accent exactly clear, the US accent, maybe, the British accent depends on the region, often times it just sounds so gargled to me like they are leaving out half the letters.
@@MrZeev76 well yes u a right . It depend on the region especially the broken English and the northern English is very hard to understand they say something and it sound something else
Australia broadly has 3 different accents they are usually described as the following: General (Hugh Jackman); Cultivated (Cate Blanchett); & Broad (Mick Dundee/Steve Irwin).
I feel like its "Normal" (Jackman), south african sounding (Blanchett) and Bogan ( Irwin/ Dundee), and these days the 4th option of "eshay" that anybody over 25 wants to kill with a hammer
I noticed while watching the Australian show, Glitch, a few years ago that the dialects in their part of AU that the 'teens' tended to be pronounced as 'deen,' such as 'thirteen' sounding like 'thirdeen;' 'fourdeen,' etc. It's a lot of fun to recognize some of these patterns and definitely help for prospective voice over work. Thanks for sharing and having a good time as well.
I'd say that Aussies have 3 types of T. First is a light T (like the British woman uses in the video) , and its used immediately after some vowel sounds. Both lit and light use that light T sound. Then there's the thicker T like in water, used after A and E vowels. And then there's the stopped T that is almost a glottal stop rather than being fully said (like in apartment in the video). But I would distinguish between the thicker T and a D, which is heavier still, I think because the tongue hits further back behind the front teeth to make the sound. Whereas for a thicker T, the tongue hits right behind the top teeth. Does that make sense?
This is a VERY broad generalization of English accents. I’m glad the English gal mentions that an accent can depend on what region you’re from. This applies to all three nations; it’s not simply East and West (USA) or North and South (UK), there are regional and subcultural accents in any country. Also, Australia DOES have accent variations, perhaps not as many, and not as varied as the US and UK, but it exist.
Yes Australians does have a few accent variations. Mainly bogan accent and normal Australian accent. Bogan like Warwick Capper. Normal like Hugh Jackman or Malcom Turnbull.
The advantage of not have english as a first language is that we can easily understand the different accents with different pronuciations. Just because we don't have to do a specifically accent, but change it or mix all of them together.
That's true, this is because English actually doesn't have rule regarding their alphabet. English words basically mix of different languages and then William Shakespeare uniformed it into a language
Aussie accent is easy for foreigners, but when you speak English you match the wrong vowels and it's hard for us until you get experience with our sound.
On the East Coast of the U.S. there numerous accents, and the main ones have fundamental differences. The classic Boston accent has a non-rhotic "r" sound, as does the low-country Carolina accent. New Yorkers also don't heavily pronounce their "r" sounds. All the accents in between, though, have heavily rhotic "r" pronunciation. I come from the mid-Atlantic, where the word "water" is often pronounced "wooder" or "worder." Where I come from, "merry" "Mary" and "marry" sound exactly the same, but farther north they have distinctly different vowel sounds in each word. I can tell when a person is from New York, Boston or Philadelphia, and I can tell which side of Baltimore they come from.
I think in India, we go after British for the vocabulary but we go after American for pronounciation. Esp how that East Coast girl sounded, mostly like that. But Indians have different accents of English too. East Coast kind is mostly for North and East Indians.
it's because all the countries ruled under British Empire study the U.K. English curriculum and grow up watching American movies and TV, hence the dual (kind of confusing) English standards developed among us : )
Another fun show! Thanks. One thing that I noticed traveling from America (home) to the UK is that many people would say I am going to hospital, or going to university, as opposed to going to THE hospital, or THE university. Or shortened to I'm going to uni. (with no "the" article used) It's just something that always catches me whenever I hear it.
Australia definitely has more than one accent I visited there a couple of years ago. Mainly in Alice Springs where my girlfriend lived and then down to Adelaide and all around Victoria I’ve always had a good ear for accents. And could tell differences
I got an impression that differences in pronunciation between these countries somewhat characterize and define national character in each country to a certain degree, though so much variations exist even in each country.
Also there is so many more accents in the UK than just the north and south. I’m guessing she’s from the midlands originally. Or possibly somewhere around the Milton Keynes.
This is fantastic .im really happy..i think all people are happy because if someone has failed to pronounce certain word in an American accent he/ she would pronounce it in either an English or an Australian accent , for sure. So everybody be confident and happy for these beautiful girls gave you the secret of don,t be shy .you are correct , whatever !
Thanks to you World Friends, because I'm learning a lot and having fun in this channel, this is such a really good and nice content. Greetings from Colombia and Congrats!!!
Love how we all speak ‘English’ but have different highlights. We understand each other, that’s essential. Again Grace, us Aussies do tend to shorten words. In Melbourne we say castle with a short ‘a’.
I'm from Malaysia and in Malaysia we usually mix the accent between the UK and US (it depends actually but this is what happens in my surroundings). The video is fascinating and I had a lot of fun watching this!
I'm not from Malaysia, but my accent is also like that. English is my third language and I watch many English content makers from both the USA and the UK, so it's all mixed up.
It’s very interesting when you actually hear those words in different accent. I grew up in Australia and now moved back to Thailand. I always wondered how people can pick my accent as Aussie. Now I know why. Also Aussie we have Outback accent too but not sure if today it’s still around.
as someone whos trying to improve english talk this is so useful, i feel a little less nervous when i need to talk somebody also I can learn different form of saying something and fully understand! thanks girls very funny to watch! pd: in all the video they mocking the australian girl lmaoo crying
I like how Australians skip most of those nonsense silent sounds and say vowels clearly, when she said zebra, it was literally same like I would say it in my langauge (Czech). :-D
@@Simon-tc1mc Yeah, I get that but the whole zee thing is particularly grating to my British ears 😀 Was just surprised a fellow Brit thought it sounded nicer
@@matthowells6382 pronouncing Z as Zed doesn't really make sense though to add a consonant at the end. No other letter does that. Pronouncing it Zee makes sense because it's the same way we pronounce A, B, C, D, E, G, P, T, V
When my Chinese wife first began watching TV here in the US she found incomprehensible shows where the people spoke with a British accent. She has little problem with understanding them now, but we have become used to watching British TV shows with the subtitles on.
My wife is a second-generation American. She also has trouble with thick British accents, especially if they are not standard or "RP" accents. Half of the dialogue in the Harry Potter movies went right past her. She could understand Hermione -- but Ron Weasley was often unintelligible to her (and sometimes to me, too).
I CANT tell whats the difference of three accents. They are the same for me. When I was a child, I learned English textbook from UK, maybe that's why I think UK English sounds most comfortable and easiest to understand. When I came to Australia, my local classmates spoke English really fast and some of teachers have different accents. You know, Australia is a country of immigration. At the beginning, it is really difficult for me to understand and communicate with them. I remember my homestay family (they came from Spain) said "soccer" in a very strange accent, they explained "football" to me, I just understand. When group discussion, my local friend spoke so so fast. When I was still thinking about what he meant at the beginning, he had already said a few words in a row, and then I listened carefully to what he was saying, but I forgot what he said at the beginning. In short, he said a lot and I didn't understand anything. Especially, when my two local classmates discussing with each other, I feel like I’m superfluous, I feel so sorry for dragging down them because I can't intervene at all.
