@alant84, despite the fact that they managed to fcuk things up every step of the way while they're making it the worst part for me is when they insist on leaving the teabag in the cup as they're actually drinking it. Yuk!
Aitch is the name of the letter. The letter is aspirated ( with a breath) and that is where the confusion arises. I've always said "innit" as a punctuation at the end of sentences, when I expect someone to see my point of view. I'm Welsh, so I say it a little differently to Londoners.
When the sound "F" is used instead of "Th" is typical of Londoners and some areas of the South East.Here is a typical sentence for you to practise with, "Forty Farsand Fevers on a Frushes Froat.
In my native dialect, Southeastern US, we don’t use innit as a statement reinforcer ( we might say ain’t that right instead), but we do say itn it (for isn’t it) and watn it (for wasn’t it).
Hi Joel. I worked with a young agency lad from the "rougher" suburbs of of London today who spoke in typical council estate youth culture accent with all the mannerisms. Even though we were both from London I found his talk amusing. Council estate talk is basically a bit like ghetto talk
my problem jps is that I have seen the 'gravy' you guys have, it is a white meat sauce with stuff. My idea of gravy is a savoury meat juices sauce that is nice and brown. Just saying lol
The white meat sauce is only one type of gravy in the US. We also have brown gravy, which is with the savory meat juices, and if you are Italian American, gravy is a tomato-based red sauce.
holy crap, never been this early to one of your videos.I like how Americans would probably be offended by this, and the British are just like 'yeah, that one's fair"
Americans are the best at making fun of Americans--just listen to our comedians. Oh, and beans for breakfast is a crime against humanity. Beans for lunch and dinner, fine. Also, there is no such thing as an American (or British) accent. We are a huge and diverse country--in my state alone there are easily 4 distinct accents--to people from Pittsburgh the people in Philly sound like foreigners speaking English (and vice versa, I am sure). Cheers or whatever, innit?
And I love Jolly, and despite not being religious, the pastor is an unreal guy. You should watch him trying to catch a squirrel in his house, it’s hilarious
Ahh class the British high schoolers, You should check out more of them on the JOLLY and the Korean Englishmen channels, Josh and Olly are also brilliant and funny to watch. 👍👍
No electric kettles - because the mains voltage is 110 Volts which needs a very high current - 30 amperes. UK has 240V so can have a 3 Kilowatt heater element for our kettles. Init is, of course "isn't it".
If you want to visit the uk and be here with hot clear weather for even a week its very hit and miss as of typing this the recent temps of the last few days were 22 to 30 Celsius but today its raining, its a roulette
I have to say the kettle thing was the thing that most surprised, and shocked me when I discovered that about the US. It never occurred to me that you could have a kitchen without one.
Nah that tea making almost made my eyes pop out. Regarding the weather, the past week it's hit upto 87f, probably good enough weather for you. Over the next week it's about 70s, comfortable enough for walking around.
Joel when you eventually get to the UK you'll find there are over 200 accents and dialects in the UK as a whole. Our accents and dialects change from town to town and can effectively change every 20 miles or so..to understand some accents can be very hard and takes a lot of listening too to actually understand what people are saying. The accents mainly on the video you showed are from London and Essex or Kent this accent is called Estuary English because of the way words are said around the Thames Estuary. I myself talk Estuary English. It's a accent based loosely on Cockney or East London with subtle changes to it..to actually realise the difference here with accents listen to some accent videos..try Yam Yam accent (Black Country accent) Brummie Accent Estuary English accent West country accent Geordie accent Scouse accent to name just a few of the accents that are so different that they sound like completely different countries all the accents I've mentioned are all from England then of course you have the various accents from Scotland two of which are Edinburgh and Glasgow accents then we have the Welsh accents and then of course the differing accents in Ireland too Northern Irish is completely different to the ROI accent you really have to check these accents out to find out just how different we all speak in the UK.
A friend of mine acquired Estuary English in the Army (he was born in Scotland. His actual accent is pretty weird). At first I thought his pronunciation of 'l' as 'o' (sort of) in words like 'milk' and 'people' was a speech impediment, like Elmer Fudd. But all these bits (like pronouncing "bottle' as 'bo'-'ll') have nice linguistic names (glottal stop, or glo'll stop, I guess) and turn up in various regional English pronunciations (including American). If these schoolboys (stereotype school uniforms!) were a bit more sophisticated, they would recognize and identify these linguistic features instead of just saying in their not-quite-received-pronunciation way that they don't talk, pardon me, speak like that. www.phon.ucl.ac.uk/home/estuary/Estuary_English.pdf seems a pretty fair discussion of Estuary English and its cultural position.
@barrymitchell6444 Oddly enough dialects aside, the Scots and Welsh have better spoken English than many English people themselves, especially the South East of England where the younger generations barely speak actual English anymore.
My American friend has an electric kettle, what if she wants a hot chocolate or cupa soup or an instant coffee, although I don't have a kettle anymore, as I have a boiling tap.
All up for more of this stuff. Also, so glad you’re going to get to the UK. Please visit Brighton or Manchester if you can, they’re awesome places with quite unique vibes, both easy to get to on direct trains from London.
British use miles per hour as well tho. And as for H, it is pronounced 'aitch'. People assume its 'haitch' because of the H'uh sound it makes in phonics. But the letters name is pronounced aitch.
Just came across your channel, loving your content. I’m in North East England and there’s so much you can cover about our area. The slang terms alone are insane, the culture is such a shock compared to the south, as is some of the history.
As my mother always said "There's no aitch in aitch"! For biscuits and gravy, substitute the word biscuits for dumplings! My biggest peeve about youngsters language these days, is the widespread use of "Can I get?" If asking a waitress or bartender, "Can I get a coffee?" well - you wont need serving, plus the fact that you're not allowed behind the bar to serve yourself..... "May I have?" is so much more polite and grammatically correct. Please adhere
Hi Joel, I'm proud of you, you recoiled in horror at the way that USA girl made her tea. You are becoming more Brit by the day. Well done.
She went back to Merica before posting that apparently.
@dave_h_8742 She admitted it was a piss take, made to wind us up. She certainly succeeded!
That was a joke!
@rocketrabble6737 She admitted it! It was a complete piss take!
@jillhobson6128 Nobody would commit every possible faux pas by accident.
That clip of making British Tea causing psychosomatic pain in ItsJps is what we love to see lmao
I'm honestly impressed that they managed to make every single step of making a cup of tea into an abomination.
@alant84, despite the fact that they managed to fcuk things up every step of the way while they're making it the worst part for me is when they insist on leaving the teabag in the cup as they're actually drinking it. Yuk!
@alant84 It was a piss take, see her later video. It was just to wind us up. It seems she succeeded.
I ADORE ‘JOLLY’ and I really loved this video! It was such fun!
Aitch is correct though, ‘haitch’ is not how it’s meant to be pronounced, but language evolves
Aitch is the name of the letter. The letter is aspirated ( with a breath) and that is where the confusion arises.
I've always said "innit" as a punctuation at the end of sentences, when I expect someone to see my point of view. I'm Welsh, so I say it a little differently to Londoners.
The biscuits are your cookies. Your Biscuits or our scones.
Americans omit the letter T from words and replace it with a D. Budder,ledder, fadder wader.Butter,Letter,Fatter,Water.etc.
There are many regional dialects in the UK not everyone pronounces words this way.
Exactly.
Na’a meen?
@AlBarzUK yip 😂😂
Aye.
When the sound "F" is used instead of "Th" is typical of Londoners and some areas of the South East.Here is a typical sentence for you to practise with, "Forty Farsand Fevers on a Frushes Froat.
Brew tea in cup with hot water only. discard bag , add milk and sugar. sorted
"Innit" is basically an abbreviated form of "isn't it?" in (rhetorical) question form, innit?
Yes it is, of course.
Up north we say "int it!"
In my native dialect, Southeastern US, we don’t use innit as a statement reinforcer ( we might say ain’t that right instead), but we do say itn it (for isn’t it) and watn it (for wasn’t it).
Innit is like kinda like how like Americans like use like the word like like like in like every like other like position in like a sentence.
@weepingscorpion8739 😂 In Britain this has like caught on, too, innit?
It's 23c, I'm melting lads. I'm Going to need at least two raspberry magnums to make it through till dinner time.
we use miles per hour here lol
i am a huge koreanenglishman/jolly fan.i love both those channels they are so good
That cuppa being made should carry a penalty 😳 🤣
" INNIT" means " isn't it " !!
I noticed that in Heartstopper, Maths 😂
2020 was the best summer we had in 20yrs, but don’t get to excited we don’t get that to often and even we couldn’t enjoy it in 2020
Jolly is an awesome channel you need to watch the episodes with rev Chris and his twin brother Charles they are really funny
Hi Joel. I worked with a young agency lad from the "rougher" suburbs of of London today who spoke in typical council estate youth culture accent with all the mannerisms. Even though we were both from London I found his talk amusing. Council estate talk is basically a bit like ghetto talk
Her Majesty's accent was lovely, Princess's Diana's also.
my problem jps is that I have seen the 'gravy' you guys have, it is a white meat sauce with stuff. My idea of gravy is a savoury meat juices sauce that is nice and brown. Just saying lol
Yes that is one of the many things that people in the US get wrong.
Looks like cat vomit mixed with ranch sauce or tartar sauce, something of that colour.
I like gravy best when it’s almost thick enough to stand the spoon up in it.
@AlBarzUK Like my Mum’s! We used to ask, “How much gravy would you like? One slice or two?”
The white meat sauce is only one type of gravy in the US. We also have brown gravy, which is with the savory meat juices, and if you are Italian American, gravy is a tomato-based red sauce.
The way that woman made the tea, made me recoil in horror, wow.😮
The irony is us brits love tea but never pronounce the letter T
Just a few days before yhis comment temperatures reached around 94 degrees F in the UK.
Never have I seen a school boy with a full beard before!
The lady making tea 🤮 she should not be allowed near tea. Definitely not British tea, i don't know what it was but it wasn't British tea. 😂☕
I am Indian and i agree with you
she knows LOL she was doing it wrong on purpose to see how many people would take it seriously
holy crap, never been this early to one of your videos.I like how Americans would probably be offended by this, and the British are just like 'yeah, that one's fair"
All the Americans are asleep innit bruh
It’s a shame the Americans can’t laugh at themselves like this lol
We can and do.
@wubbalubadubdub714Yeah , as always , it depends on the ( Brit and we have some very affable youngsters here ) the American .
Americans are the best at making fun of Americans--just listen to our comedians. Oh, and beans for breakfast is a crime against humanity. Beans for lunch and dinner, fine. Also, there is no such thing as an American (or British) accent. We are a huge and diverse country--in my state alone there are easily 4 distinct accents--to people from Pittsburgh the people in Philly sound like foreigners speaking English (and vice versa, I am sure). Cheers or whatever, innit?
@gregcable3250stupid comment, doesn’t matter how many different accents you have they all still come under American accent
The tea making was done as a joke btw
And I love Jolly, and despite not being religious, the pastor is an unreal guy. You should watch him trying to catch a squirrel in his house, it’s hilarious
Wait til you all find out in the north people say ‘int-it’ instead of ‘innit’
that women making tea is a declaration of war.
Ahh class the British high schoolers,
You should check out more of them on the JOLLY and the Korean Englishmen channels, Josh and Olly are also brilliant and funny to watch. 👍👍
Loved your expression When she made the tea 🤣. I remember your 1st cuppa and you getting the frying pan out for the beans too.
Love Jolly and KoreanEnglishman and this was a great video to see your reaction to
16 degrees, thats cold even in England.
Hi Joel,another great video (very funny 😄) x again thank you
over here biscuits are like hard cookies
I smiled all the way through this So love your videos
Ha ha! We do have the occasional hot day in summer!
Loved this, that was fun!
That lady making a cuppa tea just committed a crime against humanity!
I loved that. Very funny
I like the Jolly videos too! Have you seen their Korean Englishman videos when they lived in Korea? There's a good one when they go to a water park.
No electric kettles - because the mains voltage is 110 Volts which needs a very high current - 30 amperes. UK has 240V so can have a 3 Kilowatt heater element for our kettles.
Init is, of course "isn't it".
I concur with the horror of biscuits with gravy. You put a custard cream with gravy. You throwing up.
American beans are so different it's all barbecue, which is OK but nothing like a proper tin of heinz beans in tomato sauce.
Armand de Lambilly is so proper. hahaha
"I wouldn't have gravy full stop"
"In'it" bugs the hell out of parents that like their children to speak respectfully
We say “bottle of water” America’s say “water bottle” if you say water bottle in uk you’ll probably get a empty water bottle
love how these things say british but its pretty much just english stuff lol n these kids seem pretty posh
14 seconds is a record I hold now for tapping on the notification. This channel brings me joy so thanks. Also, hoping you’ve done most of your prep.
Spices! I wonder what goes into a curry etc 🤔
I think it’s really nice and so interesting to see people like u react to other cultures and how they speak its fascinating !
Impressed !!
The tea, that was funny
Salt n pepper on everything
i bought my mate a tin of beans for her birthday
Id love to take you to the pub just so you could really learn what we're like🤣🤣
What is in the gravy thar comes with biscuits is it lumps of meat
more jolly and korean englishmen reactions they have so many different people reacting from a vicar to a commando (both brothers )
Well I’m in Wrexham in north wales and it’s 27 degrees and humid but that could change tomorrow 🤣great vid it made me laugh out loud👍
And of 67 million people to choose a red sunburnt British face from...these guys chose a Belgian footballer haha.
Hi Joel, you should watch "London cabbies try bubble tea" on the jolly channel. It's so funny plus you will hear the dialect, and words like init etc.
If you want to visit the uk and be here with hot clear weather for even a week its very hit and miss as of typing this the recent temps of the last few days were 22 to 30 Celsius but today its raining, its a roulette
I have to say the kettle thing was the thing that most surprised, and shocked me when I discovered that about the US. It never occurred to me that you could have a kitchen without one.
I think it's the voltage over there. Not strong enough to boil water in an electric kettle. Still no excuse for microwaving it
@HowardChambers9679 They will boil, but they do take longer.
Hope the kettle thing doesn't SHOCK you too much.
I know in Canada you can get electric kettles but it also depends on if someone drinks tea or not if they have one.
@ThomasJM We Brits use Kettle for more than hot drinks. How else would you get your Pot Noddle ready? lol.
I don't know much about Jolly channel but that video is class. I hope they do more videos like it.
Also can confirm its roasting in the UK right now.
I talk like that. Parents from London.
How can any household live without an electric kettle?? 3 minutes to boil a couple of pints of water for various uses is super ace.
i dont have a kettle, why would i need or want one? but dont say tea or coffee i dont like either.
@bradgooner3284 Hot chocolate, pot noodle, bringing a pan of water to the boil much quicker. Kettles are not limited to tea and coffee.
Nah that tea making almost made my eyes pop out. Regarding the weather, the past week it's hit upto 87f, probably good enough weather for you. Over the next week it's about 70s, comfortable enough for walking around.
As a brit I loved this, but that lad with a full grown heard looks about 35 bless him lol 😀
Hahahah the kids at Schools here are giants now, most are over 6ft at 14.

There's no such thing as estuary English. That's academic bollocks. I am Kentish born and bred a I have never said innit in my life.
@neilgayleard3842 You just did!!!
I'm 100% English, but have never heard of "Estuary English" until now. All I know is very few British people speak English well these days.
A friend of mine acquired Estuary English in the Army (he was born in Scotland. His actual accent is pretty weird). At first I thought his pronunciation of 'l' as 'o' (sort of) in words like 'milk' and 'people' was a speech impediment, like Elmer Fudd.

Woop! Love Josh and Olly
"That was very enertaining" --- PRONOUNCE YOUR T'S!! 😂
Pedur Pedur Pedur! I actually remember someone called Pedur and the duuuur was about right 😂😂😂😂
The FINK is London accent and I hate it !! The rest of the country can pronounce TH together
Another good vlog 👍
Best thing about this is Armand's first language is French and he still smashed it
Make sure when you visit the UK that the railway companies are not on strike as they are at the moment.
Joel really needs a back-up plan just in case the trains aren't running.
Very true but we don't want him to be having that problem we want him to return with all good positive reviews while in the UK
You're taking the mick outta me, innit?
My American friend has an electric kettle, what if she wants a hot chocolate or cupa soup or an instant coffee, although I don't have a kettle anymore, as I have a boiling tap.
Them.. do an American accent
Me…. Can I pet that daaaaawg 😂😂
All up for more of this stuff. Also, so glad you’re going to get to the UK. Please visit Brighton or Manchester if you can, they’re awesome places with quite unique vibes, both easy to get to on direct trains from London.
Tea in microwave. Nooooooooooooooooo!
This was cool... I love the reaction, within the reaction. It was even more fun seeing actual British people struggling with the phonetic spelling.
Hiya Joel,We have a West Cumbrian accent its called Marra, Marra is a slang word for friend,this is Choppy in Whitehaven, Cumbria, England
Skin heads on a raft is always a great snack
Or we say innit to wind YANKS up .Innit !
wtf Americans have biscuits and gravy what am i hearing
Hasn't anyone ever heard of Toasties?
Popular as a meal, you can also buy Toastie makers. Cheese and ham toasties are delicious.
Oh and it's roasting hot today you could fry an egg on the sidewalk as you call it
British use miles per hour as well tho. And as for H, it is pronounced 'aitch'. People assume its 'haitch' because of the H'uh sound it makes in phonics. But the letters name is pronounced aitch.
Out of Context ItsJps: “I love all my highschoolers.”
I hope he and Ben have more younger fans as well
Just came across your channel, loving your content. I’m in North East England and there’s so much you can cover about our area. The slang terms alone are insane, the culture is such a shock compared to the south, as is some of the history.
The making tea one hurts my soul maybe i could partially forgive milk first, but MICROWAVE!!!!!!
That tea making was so painful to watch ! Joel find those people and show them how to make tea properly please😁
"show them" fecking "shoot them" 😉
@RockyBobbieBuster a bit harsh 🙃
@DS-jj5hj with a tranquilizer dart then 👌
A piece of toast sandwich is not a bad chew.
If someone made tea like that in England they'd be arrested
As my mother always said "There's no aitch in aitch"!
For biscuits and gravy, substitute the word biscuits for dumplings!
My biggest peeve about youngsters language these days, is the widespread use of "Can I get?" If asking a waitress or bartender, "Can I get a coffee?" well - you wont need serving, plus the fact that you're not allowed behind the bar to serve yourself..... "May I have?" is so much more polite and grammatically correct. Please adhere
"May I have" actually sounds too posh to me? I usually say, "I'd like (food) please" or "Can I have some (food) please"
….and don’t forget the please along with it 😜.
@spanishdncr71 See we wouldn’t say please in America necessarily. If they’re taking your order, it’s a transaction, not a favor.
Jolly's an awesome channel as is there other channel Korean Englishman.
Not many hotels in the UK have A/C, which you’ll be used to having at home. Hopefully you don’t find it too hot when you come here on your holiday.
