I'm a linguist, and I can assure you it's really hard to compare accents by listening to isolated words. Our accent comes from connected speech and intonation patterns. When you have people pronounce isolated words, you can compare their PRONUNCIATION of words, but not their ACCENT. (Yes: pronunciation and accent are not the same thing). And, needless to say, everybody speaks with an accent. Saying (orally) "I don't have an accent" is like saying "I don't exist." How can you not exist if you're saying a sentence? How can you say you do not have an accent if you're speaking with an accent as you say it? Greetings from Brazil.
Not true in the US. In the US, an accent is a "distinct mode of pronunciation of a locality." If you dont pronounce a word the way the dictionary says, then that's an accent. If you do pronounce words the way the dictionary says, you do NOT have an accent. That's literally the textbook definition. We're not as fancy as Brazil lol
I swear I need to do one of these. I remember in college my best friend was so surprised when she heard me speak to my mom on the phone because my accent came out (I’m from North Carolina like the girl in red). Sometimes I hear it but I often don’t but I’ve been told it’s definitely there and Southern. 😅 I don’t think I hear other Southern accents that easily though.
Us New Orleans noo wee say EARL
even they realized that it was a fair comparison lol
Yup, it's like trying to compare accents during karaoke. Never gonna happen.
Now give them 4 alcoholic beverages each and watch their true accents come out
Not likely to happen, but that would be much fun
I would love if this happened
😂😂😂
Yes and I want to see all of their reactions when the term “3-way” is mentioned 😂 Shallen will be the different one.
😂😂😂
As a NY'er, i can say that our accent varies depending on which borough your from, your ethnic background, and your age. An 45 y.o. Italian person from Staten Island would have a much different accent than a 16 y.o. Puerto Rican person from Queens or a 30 y.o. black person from Brooklyn. I would guess, this young lady is not from a borough, but rather another city in NY.
She from upstate lol
@@Oh_geezzz facts
Lol i never heard Bagel said like that. She sounds like she has a Caribbean influece in some of her words. While i have a Carib background, there were no accents in my home. I feel like we mostly shorten our words, and she made it longer, which was stranger as heck lol it pretty much sounds like "bay-gu" when i say it.
Or maybe not Caribbean, cuz that "downtown" sounded like some sort of African ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ i dont know, i just know she doesnt pronounce words like anyone i know. They need at least 5 people per borough for us 🤣 🤣 🤣
She prolly frm long island
They needed someone from Chicago, Baltimore, DC, New Orleans, Los Angeles, Philly, Bronx(NYC), Dallas and Boston
And Mississippi
I'll be the one from the Bronx 😊
Philly sucks. Philadelphians are so lame.
I'm from New Orleans and I said ever word with them and it was different, especially oil. 😅
Agreed, they sound the same here. I also think they should have either had much older or younger people for this experiment.
I also believe these subjects are more educated, which makes a huge difference in the pronunciation of your "speech" pattern.
Ian : show off his hair , looks at the camera , preperes his throat, speaks confidently. Yeah , that's it 😅😂
😂😂😂 every single time

I’m glad we got a normal dude for California that doesn’t try to complicate or exaggerate anything, he’s cool

While still definitely being California. He's a good one.
Cali girl👋🏽
Dude! A Segel just coooold pooped on my head.
You realize there’s some inherently insulting in the “you’re one of the good ones” comment, right? It betrays a generalization about the entire state, which is ridiculous. “Oh, that state is full of pretentious losers… you’re ok, tho…”
Side note for non Americans: when Americans say they don’t have an accent they mean they have a standard American accent, not a regional one
I just think they think they're the default and people elsewhere have the accents 😂
@yoboidylxnzw No, it means standard American accent. We're comparing accents within the country, not with the rest of the world.
@@lavinder11 I've never been to America. I went to an international school were there were a bunch of students from different countries. There was this (only) American girl who used to insist that everyone had an accent but her. We used to try to explain to her but she was like nah
@@lavinder11and by standard, we mean neutral. Like an accent with very little inflection or emphasis or stress on certain syllables and words, I believe
@yoboidylxnzw That's her at your international school. We're talking about Americans in the USA.
I think we can safely say we learned absolutely nothing from this lol
😂😂
For the record, Atlanta is not a state.
Thats weird I always thought it was 😂 But I'm not American otherwise that would be embarrassing
Of course 🤦🏾♂
Lol yeah, Atlanta is a city (the capital) from Georgia! @@nicholasr39
Nawww you're a genius
That was driving me nuts from the thumbnail 🤦🏾♀️
You should try this with 5 area of the UK - Glasgow, Newcastle, Liverpool, Birmingham and London and the difference would be immensely different 😂
Like in France!!! Accents are much more different in European countries, eventhough they are smaller 😂
@@J0HN_D03 True: Belgium would be pandemonium... ABSOLUTE pandemonium. 😂😂
I'm from the U.S. They didn't choose good people for this project. All these people speak general, standard American English. They are affecting their differences here but it is not natural.
Same in germany, take a guy speaking lower german, a salon, a barian, a franconian,a Rhinelander , a Berliner and a Westphalian for example and thats only a few.
Chuck a welsh person in there aswell
Hunter didn’t have a New York accent. She sounded like she grew up some place else and then moved there. We are losing our accent in the lower New York area( Northern New York sounds more country), but a lot of us you can tell where we are from and she doesn’t sound like us.
I was looking for this comment.....Hunter definitely DOESN'T sound like she's originally from NY. Most of her words I was like "ahh ahh...that is NOT how we New Yorkers pronounce that 🤦🏾♀️😅
I agree!!!
she a transplant probaly moved to ny wen she was 17 lmao
She has a west Indian tinged accent. She doesn't sound like her family from there.
her voice was deep tho
I would love to see people from Texas and Louisiana participating in this game 😂
Especially New Orleans. I'm from Baton Rouge and their accent is so much different than ours. Or the Cajuns
They would sound the same. All the participants sounded the same. Unless you're over 50, you'll sound more like an "American" versus the locale you are from.
@@Chloe.zyxwvu Now that I think about it, you're probably right.
We'd definitely show more accent. But these kids aren't from rural neighborhoods lol
My exact thoughts
"California , Downtown" lol , the way he said this one is both incredible and funny 😂 , even the other girls got surprised by that
He was the only one who said it correctly. 😉
@@bitcoinbellehe said it exactly the same way as Atlanta and North Carolina.
In parts of Houston, they say downtown like this....."dawntawn"
A lot of people from america after a certain generation have non regional accents simply because of exposure and the way we're educated. A lot people live in big cities now which exposes us to a lot more diverse groups of people. My grandparents for example who are all in their 80s would have more distinct accents because they grew up in more isolated rural area. There are a lot of other factors involved but i don't feel like writing an essay
I would agree. I am a native Southern Californian. My accent is no different than my boss', who's from Atlanta.
My parents are 80, so you and I are a generation apart. I will never understand how youngsters nowadays claim that writing more than 4 lines of text is writing an essay. When I was 14 in high school, I wrote a 30 pages paper about the Soviet Union for Geography class and another 20 pages one about subatomic particles for Physics. And there wasn't Internet back then, we were still using huge encyclopaedias from the library and typewriters in 1980's...
@@BlackHoleSpain Im pretty sure they didn't mean it literally, also leaving a long comment online can be considered like an essay just bc its long...
@@minco04 yeah I was being sarcastic. I know a lot of people won't read long comments
Yes, also depends on who we are talking to. And sounds change in sentences
These girls are glazing this man 😂😂😂😂😂
Im from California and i am legitimately confused why all the girls laugh everytime Ian says a word
It's because they are attracted to him...especially the woman from North Carolina.
They are crushing on him both of the blonde chicks and he knows it he's just eating this up😅
Cuz he does it suave while looking at the camera
It's his height and Deep voice he honestly has his own accent because of his deep voice and tone 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Cause he acts weird when he says the words
The state of NY most definitely has distinctive regional accents. Some Upstate accents can sound Canadian and the rural accents are very 'country'. The major urban areas have their own nuances as well.
Absolutely! People in New York City/Downstate have told me I sound Canadian ... A LOT. I grew up in Rochester and crossed the border for as long as I remember. And people from Canada also tell me I sound like I'm Canadian, too! But then they say I sound like a New Yorker when I say certain things.
I was born in upstate New York then raised mainly in the south so it’s muddled
Yes thats true! Most people think were all the same. Like you say im from NY but everyone who doesnt live there thinks New York city. Like the whole state is the city!
@@rosemaryedwards7239 Yeah, I agree with that. If I say I'm from New York, to people I know online, they think the city. I then say I'm from The Island and they are lost...I mean Long Island though. The City is Manhattan...The Island is Long Island and then everywhere else you specify. But seriously the New Yorker here does not sound like I do...when she said bagel especially, I sound more the like the one next to her, same for a few other words as well honestly.
I need to rid myself of this accent. 😆
I have never heard a New Yorker pronounce bagels like that before
I said the same thing. I'm a NYer. also oil and iron... I would think she's a transplant
@AS-kf1ol Yeah "iron" was definitely NOT how any native NYC'er would pronounce it. Lol I was so confused 🤨
Yeah, she definitely isn’t a native of NYC.
Her parents are probably Caribbean
@8aba_Yaga thats def irrelevant. She prob from upstate
There's different accents even within the same states. North Carolina coast has the Carolina brogue (OY-land instead of I-lend) and then in the mountains it's a very Appalachian dialect with the long I's. The history behind why those accents exist is fascinating.
yeah for those who live in Eastern Carolina (not the coast) a lot of older folks and a small number of younger folks speak the Plantation or Tidewater dialect and it's very noticeable when someone speaks it. They don't pronounce their Rs and it sounds majestic.
Within the same city 🤣 I’m from LA and I can tell when someone if from the East side cause there’s a bit more country to it. And like my father doesn’t say “car” like I would he says it more like “cor” and he’s from south central area, I’m from the southbay a bit more proper and clear.
@@treyandrews3618my ex husband and his family have lived in Onslow County since forever and at times I would look at him like say what.lol
Girl, there is no reason to be ashamed of saying oil like that. I'm from GA and I say it that way. Southern accents are acceptable and beautiful. 💖
If oil doesn't sound like awl, then y'all aint right! 😂😂
Ian is so effortlessly funny😂
Not a hit of Georgia in Chelsea’s accent, that I heard. She almost sounds more Cali than the California dude lol.
😂 mixed feelings. Unfortunately, many professional fields growing up did not take kindly to accents. I have one, but it isnt strong~ thanks for watching!🎉
I'm not sure if the NY girl is a native New Yorker. I've been living in NYC for over 33 years, since I was 4 years old, and I've never heard anyone pronounce bagel or downtown the way that she pronounces it. Most of the words used in this video have pretty much identical pronunciations across the board.
She not from ny fr 😒
Right! NY doesn’t sound like this🙄
Nah I believe yall. Shit cause I got homeboi and homegirls from new york and they sound different as hell. It's like wit florida you can tell who not really from here fr fr. It's lil shyt that stick out.
She gotta be from upstate smh

@@goufackkentsaleandrinlebel8826lol🤣🤣
One thing I'd point out is that most movies and tv we see are from Hollywood, and that general California accent has become a bit of a standard accent for a lot of the country. If people want to sound like they have a generalized American accent, they're probably a lot more likely to learn it from TV and movies, so it makes sense that people would veer toward the Californian accent.
I think the words and phrases they used didn't show the variation as much as some other words they could use. I'm from California, I went to college in Ohio, lived in North Carolina, and have lived in New England as well. Most of these words and phrases chosen don't really illustrate the variation in these accents.
The "standard american accent" is a softened mid-western accent. I think California has pretty similar pronunciation for most things, but different tonality (but also that depends on whether it's northern or southern cali as well).
@@ChrisCypher i saw vids about nyc from 2001 and a lot of people had different accents
I feel like the Atlanta girl was the most regular American accent without accent
@@ChrisCypherI think both Charlene and you are correct and here's why.
California and the west in general were largely settled by Midwesterners. California in particular was settled by Midwesterners and to a lesser degree by northeasterners, followed by southerners, and European (largely British, Scottish, and German) immigrants.
In southern California you see the first white settlers from the east, establish towns (that would later become cities), coming from states like Indiana, Illinois, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Missouri, Minnesota, Iowa, etc. Pasadena--the city where the Rose Parade takes place, was once called the Indiana colony since most of its initial residents were from Indiana (fun fact Julia Child was born and raised in Pasadena). The city of Pomona, east of Pasadena received settlers from Ohio and Pennsylvania. The city of Long Beach was initially settled by people from Iowa. Pasadena neighborhoods were even used as a stand in, in the Halloween movies for Illinois since it has that very mid western any town main street USA vibe.
Of course there were also the odd immigrants from Britain/Scotland, Germany, Ireland, Canada, etc. And a few people from New York, Connecticut, New Hampshire, etc.
But the vast majority of settlers to places like Oregon and California followed the Oregon trail and later Route 66 which originated in Chicago, went through St. Louis, and points further west. Denver was also a stopover point for trails further north. So I've read therefore that while accents are very varied from Texas on east, beginning around Denver going west, the general accent is quite similar and uniform. You don't have as drastic distinctions as say comparing the Boston or New York accent, to the Mid-Atlantic, to the Southern accents.
Therefore the California accent is a modified mostly Midwestern accent. But Charlene is correct in that Hollywood films have propagated the western, "California" accent far and wide, and mainstreamed it as the standard American accent. Other regions of the country have even adopted, for example, the Valley girl persona mimicry--even well off (or aspiring) New Yorker trust fund girls trying to ditch the New Yawk/Brooklyn accent. Foreigners have just been conditioned to expect that as the standard American accent.
So that's my take on that.
@@ChrisCypher what tone is different? Not everyone in California talks like this guy or the stereotypical Cali accent portrayed in the media. We don’t all sound like valley girls
I’m not a native speaker, but I think they all have a standart American accent. How is Shannon speaking with a Southern accent? Usually I have hard time understanding Southern, but I get every word she says…
It really depends are where in the state you are from. I'm from Raleigh, the capital of NC, and a lot of people have a more generic US accent (we have a lot of "transplants" who live in the city, ie people from all over the country, so the accents kind of merge). If you go out into the countryside, that is when you start to hear the more stereotypical "southern" accent.
We have five dialects in NC. I have been told by people in NC that there's no way I'm from here due to my accent. I was born and raised in North Carolina. I have not resided outside of NC.
Oh now I see! As a person from outside of the States, I usually hear the Southern accent from the films/series and they usually demonstrate the stereotypical one. Maybe that’s why I couldn’t believe she was Southern.
@burakpatan8453 yep that makes sense because in the video she barely has an accent. Honestly these folks weren't good examples because they all have a more general us accent probably due to education level/travel etc.
Ian sounded like a local newscaster signing off when he did the gluten free one😆
Ian was great! I don’t know why they were putting SO much emphasis on every little detail about his actions … 😮😀 They were all great and interesting. Very small differences between the “accents”, though. Seems like all of the US speaks more or less the same.
It's because they are a little crushing on Ian
@@deejayencontro4113 I guess you’re correct 😉
You are right. He is hot though
Because the two girls next to him were crushing on him the whole time. Take a shot every time NC makes eyes at or touches Ian. LOL
cause they want the D
Loved it! I love hearing accents from different regions of the country. It’s so very interesting to hear how words are pronounced in different parts of our country. Well done, everyone!☺️
Omg! North Carolina represent!😭✨never seen a southern from the Carolina’s in these type of videos
i said the same!! we’re finally on the map haha
I was born in NC. Moved to Texas in 2012. The accent is different even though it’s still the south. Goodness the southwest is different lol. I get made fun of for my accent.
Ian was trying to make every word he said sound like a commercial ad fr 🤣🤣🤣
As an Aussie, I barely noticed a difference between any of these accents. The only one of note was the girl from Ohio, whom I noticed said "Glu'en" for "Gluten" and "Bri'ain" for "Brittain" - the T sound was more a throat sound rather than a tongue and teeth sound (does that make sense?)
The "glottal stop".
They all pretty much spoke standard American English. This experiment was poorly done.
I’m from Ohio and I also have a hard time pronouncing the “T” sound in many words, when I say “water” it’s sounds more like “wadder”
@@Jermarenorth and north east Ohio have a “vowel shift” accent where they stress their vowels. Where I’m from in Ohio, we have more of a Pennsylvania accent since we’re so close. It’s a relatively new accent in comparison to others!
For gluten, most of them said glu’n but one of them said glu’in. They all had a glottal stop but one of them out a distinct vowel after it
i think the differences between the accents can be clearly seen not in a single words but more in sentences and longer speeches (i hope u understand)
like the way they lengthen or shorten the words at the end of a sentences and all that stuff
They all sound the same to me. 👍
The differences are more evident when they start talking to each other.
Yes🎉
Why is everyone so good looking? Especially Hunter and Shannon like woah😍🔥
They’re models in Korea.
Shannon ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
The two white people? 🙃
@@GenerationNextNextNextHunter is the one from NY
I was born and raised in Atlanta Georgia and then I went my senior year of high school in California. Everybody loved the way that I spoke. They couldn't believe how thick of a southern accent was . Everybody kept saying " Please say that for me again, or talk for me" of course I don't realize it until you travel from state to state. I I don't know the people they picked for this video don't really set a good example for the north south , Midwest , East Coast , and west coast accents. Just my opinion😂❤
People I've met from Atlanta barely even have an accent compared to others from rural south 🤷
Yeah I don't know if I even could have guessed where they were all from lol
In Ian's defence, he mentioned his state just after Shannon told about her state and then they went: "Oh you Californian"
The word "iron" changing in context reminded me of Japanese language where the household device is called アイロン (airon) and the golf club is called アイアン (aian). Same source word, different loanwords.
Chelsi sounds less southern than I'd expect. Im from Georgia and I sound like half the stuff differently than her😭 I think I sound more like her when Im code switching 💀
It didnt make the cut, but Hunter and I def mentioned it. While living in Korea, you pretty much remain in a state of switch😅
@livinglifewithchelcichuu6721 oh no😭 I don't wanna feel like a customer support agent every day
@@amaraw9893 dun dun dunnn, our reality, haha
For sure I say ol and iaaaaan lol 😂 I’m just country unfortunately. T from gluten is for sure gone just like cotton and Atlanta.
💯
To be honest, I didn't feel the difference🤷♂
PS I like how Ian represents California "downtown"🤣 This guy deserves more time on this channel
👍
There wasn't. All these people speak standard American English.
Same. It’s funny they think there’s a difference
My guess is because these 5 live overseas (like they address at the end). As an American living in Sweden, I have realized that many Americans who live or work internationally for a long time adjust their accents to be as generic as possible so that non-native speakers can understand them better. If you plucked 5 locals from each of those cities who have never lived anywhere else, then maybe the accents would be more distinct.
@@JLDReactions no they dont u do realize all americans dont sound alike right we all have accent depending what state u are in , this we know u an outsider dude no real american would say this fr
Thank you for doing this ❤
I love this group!!! They made me laugh so much and Ian reminds me of a California Joey Tribiani from Friends. My accent I would say is between a mix of New York and North Carolina and that's only because I was born and raised in New York but lived with my grandparents who still had their Carolina accent. You just pick up on it after awhile.
I really love this episode. I need more episodes of those five 😎
The NY chick must be from the Canadian side of NY
You guys are super cool. Nice vibes and positive energy!
so glad to see someone from North Carolina in here😭😭yall didn’t peep when she said “y’all”🤣yeah, i wouldn’t change my southern accent for anything in the world hahaha
Not a lot of people in the South really have the strong Hollywood type of cowboy or Confederate style accent. Usually its only slightly there. You can tell that there is a bit but it's not really night and day.
I agree! As a Southerner😂 Thanks for watching!🎉
Sometimes key words activate the Southern accent. Sometimes it's instinct
They are hilarious and chaotic. Would love to see all of them in another video with Christina.
They all have accents but you have to listen to the audio without watching the video.
Their accents come out when they are talking, not much when they are pronouncing the words.
That's what I was about to say. If they just let them talk freely and get comfortable having a conversation, then introduce the words, it would be easier to catch their accents.
Ok
So I’m from NY and pronounce many of the words totally different from the girl from NY… I guess it depends from the area your from.
Agreed! I'm from NYC maybe she's from Upstate because we don''t pronounce "bagel" and "iron" the way she did.
Thank you!! I’m from Brooklyn NY and I’m listening to her and I’m like what’s going on?! Lol
I'm from Queens and believe me my ny accent is wild I love my accent and she might be because she tripped me out on all of them especially coffee I was born in queens and raised in Brooklyn so you can imagine
The guy from California, should be a male model. Like one of those commercial models.
a little bit late but he is
Dude from California was mad funny 😂
funny? he was acting so strange to me😂
Everyone has an accent y’all 🤣
wow, it's incredible how similar they all sound! i'll watch this again and again
This was a fun video! Thanks!!
8:10 she's right accent change. I'm originally from Dominican Republic and when I speak Spanish people can't really tell where I'm from. I have Puerto Rican friends Colombians, Mexicans, I'm married to a Peruvian; so my accent is not the same as some of my family members who's close friends are from Dominican Republic because of where they live in the USA.
I hear no difference, we need the brits for that
Or the Irish. These people have no idea what actually distinct accents throughout a country sounds like lol
Unless they're from the rural south, this generation of Americans have virtually no regional accents.
Now their parents might, grandparents definitely.
Growing up in the U.S., I've definitely heard stronger accent differences in person. I agree that all of the people on this video have very similar accents. There are only subtle differences. But this video doesn't feel accurate to the differences I actually hear living in the U.S. There are some very dramatic accent differences across the country, none of which were represented in this video.
These were very bad examples of regional accents. I'm guessing they just had limited access to Americans. They all pretty much have the standard us English accent.
I wonder what part of NY Hunter is from because I'm from LI and we don't say bagel or iron like that. 😹
I’m thinking she’s from upstate
I like their group dynamics! Would love to see them all in a video again
I’m across from the US of California and I say a lot of words like Californians would, something I stole from the UK accent is that when saying blueberry I say it like bluebrie and it’s a very condensed thing so there’s no rest between the syllables. I picked up on that because it’s just a really quick way to say blueberry.
In Mississippi we say “CAWFEE”. We also don’t have a pronunciation for “Gluten-Free” because we don’t know what that is.😂
oh is there not a lot of gluten-free stuff in mississippi? i have an allergy to gluten so im genuinely curious
@@treefrogg No we do. Everybody is Mississippi is just so fat 😂
This was very anticlimactic because in regular conversation it's not like this at all lol 😂
Me and my friends used to tease our high school English teacher. She would pronounce certain words so… uniquely. Unique to us at the time. It was all in good fun. I still keep in touch with her from time to time.
I'm from California and don't hear my accent represented. I'm from the "inner city" in Southern California. We put more emphasis on our vowels especially on the letter A. We have a faster cadence from those in the suburbs and don't drag our words out lol
Ian out here like a news caster 😂
I love how this group interacted 🤣
I'd love to know where in NC and Ohio and California they're each from because it can vary wildly within each state too.
Ohio gal here. Originally from Cleveland area and now live in Columbus. Big difference in accents. If I still lived in Cleve, I would say racks for rocks, sacks for socks, mom is more like maaam (whiny sound). I've lived here in Columbus for so long that I've pretty much lost my Land of Cleve accent. I bet Cinci would be a real mix being right on the KY border too.
im from CLE and I have no clue who tf is saying rocks like Racks. Must be a west-side thing
@@crazguykwan8955 haha it’s not a literal but when I call my friend I can tell. She’s east side but we are both from west. When I went to college at Ohio Wesleyan, I got picked on a lot for my “accent”. It must be real. Now that I think about it, it really is west side. It’s like the Chicago accent.
I grew up on the east side of Cleveland and NOBODY talks like that 😂
@@saralynn518what you’re describing is definitely the Great Lakes accent. Which is Canadian influenced. Common in Milwaukee, Minnesota, Chicago too. They also say “beg” instead of “bag”. I agree with the other commenter gotta be from the west side or suburbs. The inner city sounds really country imo. I’m in NYC so I can hear the country now lol!
@@thedreadpirateroberts You missed out on the party I was born into 😎🍺🥴
I loved this. Would have been cool to hear people from Louisiana (specifically New Orleans), Maryland (Baltimore), anywhere in Wisconsin, and Tennessee (Nashville).
I’m shocked nobody is commenting on how everyone’s skin in this video looks like a glazed donut.
I love this !
I've lived in North Carolina just for a few years when I was little, but it's great !
But, after the time, California and Atlanta hits me too.
NY is a bit fast sometimes, and Ohio is eye opening.
I still can’t differentiate them. They pronounce almost the same to me🤷🏻♂️
they are, none of these people have strong enough regional/ethnic accents with a notable difference
@@suvhur The ny girl has a bit of it, sounds more Brooklyn accent than your typical NYC stereotypical accent. You can hear it if you talk to her maybe on the streets of NY. The others idk, the North Carolina girl maybe.
@@frenchchicken2799 yea for sure, if you are American and you talk to the NC or NY girls in a drawn out conversation you would hear it more, its just the way the video is structured to have them say one word at a time that makes it very hard to tell notable differences. (especially for someone not from N.A)
Depends on the word. If we said them in sentences or spoke more to each other from similar regions, definitely would have come out more :)
@@suvhur Yep, 100%
To my foreign ears only oil and pajamas were that different

Shannon is so gorgeous. Her smile is beautiful.
The Iron one is funny. Atlanta people usually say it closer to Urn. Like get an Atlantan to say 'Aaron earned an iron urn' and it would sound like 'earn earn an earn earn'.
!!!!! Oh no, I just tried to say it and you're absolutely right! 😂😂
Not really. I’m from ATL and only the most rural people wouldn’t pronounce it as I-Urn.
@@jeremiah_12 grew up in the A, and I still struggle saying that dang word, lol
@@BecomingChelciChuu It also depends on where a person’s parents are from too.
@@jeremiah_12 exactly, the list of things to consider is endless!
My parents are just about two generations removed from me and they said “ol”. My mom also say “co-in” for coin. Otherwise she doesn’t sound southern, while my dad does - he was born in MS but transplanted to Texas at 20. I only realized he has MS accent when I met some MS kids at a camp.
I so relate with (Ian) the guy on the end, you can tell he is a fun person to go out with, of course I'm from California love him.
I think you’d find more regional accent diversity if there were also a mix of generations.
This guy is very funny 😂
The word that interested me the most was "syrup," because the pronunciation of the "y" changed ever so slightly with each person.
It was almost perfect, but I think Atlanta's was slightly more wide sound than New York's, so if they switched places you could hear a distinct transformation from wide to closed vowel sound.
The differences here are very slight in comparison to the prototyped version of each of these regional accents 40 years ago. They all sound pretty similar to me. As people shift their influence from families to media, we are sounding less our regional and ethnic backgrounds and more like a generalized version we acquire from watching streaming content.
Well, to me as a European I didn't hear so many differences as to single words. But when you talk you can hear your different accents. It seems I best understood charming California Man. Ian is a news reporter, isn't he? He does something with his voice. He was the Anchor Man of this video.
They are all very neutral American accents. Very few differences between them
the Atlanta lady was deadass wrong about syrup though. I live in Atlanta for over a year and have lived in GA all my life and NO ONE i've ever met pronounces syrup like that.
Well, I enjoyed that but I couldn't hear any obvious differences. Someone said that the Boston accent would be quite different ("coffee") and I would expect that from the Kennedys. It seemed like a lot of fun - thank you all!
This is probably a more accurate way to present it since most of the time in the US, especially in cities, most folks will speak with a more general American accent but its a poor way of representing the sterotypical regional accents. Also in some parts of the country it could be down to a few different words choices like Coke, Soda, Pop etc. Rather then an actual difference in the way people sound.
Then there's us in New Orleans: Cold Drink 😂
Gosh my cheeks hurt from laughing the whole video!!!!!!!! Why is LA guy so funny? They all are so funny!
The only accent I can tell as a non-native is California's. Especially LA. They talk so distinctively different, clear, bright that you can't go wrong) I was a fan of Billie Eilish in 2018-19 and listened to her a lot. And the moment I heard Jenna Ortega I understood she's from LA. But probably it's a generation and social class thing too (they have almost the same)
Jenna Ortega is actually from the Coachella valley! 2 hours east of LA
The accents would have been more distinguishable had the panelists not been world travelers.
I haven't watched the video all the way through yet , or read any comments, so this may have already been said , but with each person repeating the same word , there is going to some influence, they are bound to pick up on each other s accents and subconsciously copy them .
Also , the woman in the pink jumper mentioned this, the way we say a work will differ if we say it in sentence.
I’m glad there are different accents in each language. How boring would it be if we all sounded the same?
Its so interesting to see different accents even within states bc im from Ohio and i pronounce a lot of those words very differently than she does.
I think there are about three Ohio accents: the Southern sounding Cincinnati accent, central Ohioan which over pronounces all of the word, and Cleveland accent which pronounces “ag” as “eg”.
@@christophershell7564 more than that bro. There like 3 just within where I live.
@@christophershell7564I'd saw the SE and SW part of Ohio are completely different. SE is more WV, and SW is more KY.
Then central Ohio kind of teeters between newscaster and SE, and the Northern parts can vary between MI, CA, and NY somehow 😂
@@christophershell7564Yep. Exactly
@@Kelsie154Yes! I would say here in CLE we’re have a mix of NYC, Cali and Canada with a sprinkle of the South for flavor.
I'm from New Hampshire and I wish that there were examples from our North Eastern area as well. Maine, Vermont, New Hampshire and Massachusetts all speak in differences as well. It is better to use full sentences than just the vocabulary to hear the difference in accents but it's nice to hear the difference. I say Glu'en (more of a throat sound) than pronouncing the T strongly. There's more of course but I wanted to bring it up. Thank you for this video!
I’m In Boston Mass so I feel you
New York sounds like she's originally Caribbean and Ohio sounds like she's originally European. That could be throwing off the accents even more.
Ohio actually has two distinct accents the woman from ohio is definitely from up north somewhere she has a nasally accent which most northern ohioans have and as you go further south in ohio they start using a souther drawl type accent
To be honest none of them had a strong accent so it’s hard to tell the difference. I’ve lived in Cleveland, Atlanta and NYC and none of them sound like the stereotypical native accents from those cities. They all have a slightly different version of the generic American accent.
Whenever I see the word "Oil" I feel happy they didn't invite a New Orleanian 😂Half of us say "earl".
I love this, and as a Los Angelino I found it funny that iron was Chelci"s worse word lol I relate my two words that are my worse enemy are Tylenol and Aluminum lol but then again my parents are from the south and my dad says Earl instead of oil lol also I'm Jamaican,Portuguese and Asian, don't know if that has anything to do with but yeah great video!!
