See Allison Hammond interview Harrison Ford and Ryan. He genuinely had a good time. She is the best daytime presenter, see her marry the Rock during an interview.
The lady had a Northern Irish accent. She told her boyfriend to lap the supermarket in the car while she got some quick shopping and on the way out of the store she jumped in the wrong car, covered with hats and scarves,got in the back of the car and thumped the seat shouting 'go go go' as a bit of fun for her boyfriend but it was a middle aged lady who she didnt know, who panicked and crashed the car!!
It’s easier I think for English people to do American because the accents are less complicated than English accents so it would be harder the other way round
No offence to Americans, but in film and tv there seems to be 2 or 3 main accents. Whereas, in the UK you can travel 20 miles and sound completely different. So Americans learning English only learn RP or cockney accent. So they don't really sound like what most people think a normal English person sounds like.
I think it’s just that we are used to being sardined in with various accents and languages all around us constantly. America has so much space, you can live in one accent and have little exposure to much difference. And yes, we grew up watching American stuff, but I think it’s more the lack of exposure. They are very insular, a lot don’t look outside of their country, or even state. I’m generalising of course, I’m sure some do expose themselves and pick up accents and languages
Actually the linguistic studies show that the reason is because most pop culture media is American so from a young age british people hear American accents and become very used to them and can make the sounds more natural, movies, tv, music. If Americans just watched British movies from birth, they’d be just the same.
You're right about the accent thing. I grew up in the UK, and we all grow up from a young age with American TV, movies and music, so we're used to hearing the main US accents a lot (New York, California, etc). But not so much the Southern ones.
You should have a look at some of the full episodes. The John Cleese, Harry Enfield and Lee Mack episode is hilarious. The Miriam Margolyes, Will I Am and Greg Davies is good too.
I know what you mean. When I watched Henry Fonda play a baddie in Once a Time in the west, I couldn't believe it! There are a lot of successful English people in American tv, we have no idea are English. The best American was Higgins in the original Magnum. He was from Texas but sounded so English.
In Germanic languages Skum or some variant thereof is whipped light cream or foam so scum is understandable. My favourite was an American book about Greece with a section laughing at Greek into English signs. Big laugh at the arrow sign pointing to "Bageri." The laugh was on the writer as bageri is Danish for bakery. The point being in both above cases that the whole world does not revolve around us English speakers.
With accents, there's a hell of a lot of American TV and movies we've all grown up with that we can mimic. For translations, you ought to see Monty Python's Swedish phrase book.
Further to your "get me whatever" comment. When I was an apprentice (one of twelve) we had to take turns at getting stuff from the local shop for the more senior members of staff. On this day it was my turn and one of the men asked me to get him a pork pie and a pint of milk. Having been to the shop many times previously I pointed out the pork pies may well have been sold (it was early afternoon) and what should I get as an alternative. He replied I should get him "whatever" so I did. I got him a pint of milk and a packet of Woodbines (cigarettes). Given this happened in the early seventies mind. As you guessed I got a severe kicking and weeks of verbal abuse! How was I supposed to know he didn't smoke? 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Whenever I visit a new reasonably upscale restaurant I actually do get the "whatever" option by telling the waiter to let the chef pick his favourites on the menu. It's not always you'd necessarily pick that option again given the choice but you're always certain to get excellent quality.
The Silmarillion as a single volume can be daunting but as a collected work of individual books, it is a lot less difficult to read. My favourite is the Ainulindale (Eye-nooo-Lin-da-Lee) or the Music of the Ainur; as a creation myth the Ainulindale is a lot easier to understand than our own (Tolkien was a Catholic) and in large part echos Olaf Stapleton's Star Maker. Stapleton posited in Star Maker that the entirety of existence is an experiment in 'what ifs' and explores the concept that the Cosmos is conscious on a level we cannot hope to understand because of its length of existence compared to ours is beyond our simple and ephemeral apprehension. Similarly, Tolkien has its maker/creator divest discreet portions of its consciousness into separate entities in an attempt to understand itself and make variation that results in the great expression of imagination that is the Music - the physical form and history of Middle Earth from beginning to end. And the Silmarillion explores that literal thought experiment from initial creation to the end of the Second Age of Middle Earth; the Lord of the Rings is set in the Third Age. Not an easy book to read because Tolkien employs, in the first book, one of the oldest forms of narrative writing style, that is akin to old Anglo Saxon but it isn't as difficult as Chaucer. Try the first book and then maybe the Valaquenta before reading on to Sun and the Moon - these aren't chapters but individual books and it's easier to treat them as such because the style changes from book to book (not quite like Joyce's Ulysses) until it reads like the Lord of the Rings in final books.
My husband and I have had the conversation about when we sing there is no difference in accent between American and British. My husband (American) said he had no idea some of the bands he loved were British because they don’t have an ‘accent’ when they sing. There are some exceptions such as Adele.
I speak russian so i decided to find out what " father in law" is in Russian. Turns out that it's very similar to the word for pastry. So " sausage in the father in law" is a sausage roll.
The best part about Graham Norton is that he gets big time celebrities on and gets them really DRUNK. Look up Mark Wahlberg drunk on the Graham Norton show and watch the full interview version....it is highly entertaining. ✌💯😁
Hope you get to do another Al Murray, if so, try. Al Murray-The Pub Landlord-Beautiful British Tour O2. This one is slightly different to his History stuff, more of a mild roasting of the audience but still fantastic Murray at his best.
Nice one. Pretty cool that you're doing these now, after you've had time to 'meet' many of the British guests that were maybe unfamiliar before reacting (Harry & Paul reaction made me chuckle). Edit: 'Scum' is what we call foam in Denmark, probably the same for half a dozen other countries. Whether it's marshmallow type foam bananas or more fluid, gloopy stuff too like the Angel Delight the Brits have. As you say, GoogleTranslate is about as accurate as Siri is in Glasgow. That said, we have winegums called 'Spunk' and there's nothing lost in translation there..
For singing, I think it’s because you hold out vowel sounds, and the main difference in accent is differences in vowel pronunciation. So the differences in our accents all just become a musical note, and it’s hard to spot the contrast
Funny you mentioned about having a history degree. History is a strange one. When i was at school it was my least favourite subject. Completely failed the exam. I remember the first question of the exam was "what was the significance of this ship to Hitler" (it was a ww2 based exam) And then i saw about 5 empty pages for me to write out a long answer. I wrote "because it was his ship" and closed the exam booklet and sat there for the next 2 hours. But years later, i'd love nothing more than to casually sit reading through the wikipedia page for the Bismarck battleship, its fascinating. Really wish i could go back and pay a bit more attention. But hey-ho. The rescources, documentaries, movies, books and video games around nowadays really are great and a lot more engaging than a classroom.
You’ll be pleased to hear Paul Whitehouse has been on the radio this morning and announced him and Harry Enfield are filming a new series I presume of a sketch show.
In addition to what others have said about watching American TV, another reason for the accents is that generally American accents have a more open and relaxed mouth compared to most British accents. That's why when singing British accents aren't as detectable, because you also generally need open mouth posture to sing. Rap on the other hand isn't as open mouthed so accents are more noticeable. There are also theories that it's easier to move from closed mouth to open mouth when doing accents, because its more relaxed and doesn't use as many different muscles.
Loved this Show. Set up my day. Thank you. Have you reacted to 'Know Your Ally: Britain'? If you haven't it might be fun. Produced by the American Government, it set out to explain England and the English prior to U.S. soldiers joining WW11. Lots of pathe type footage. Apparently, there's a whole series of them, one for each ally.
I think the accent thing is because of two or three things. One, we're exposed to more American accents than Americans are to British ones. We hear more American people on TV and in movies. Two, Britain has probably as many distinct accents as the US but Americans only know RP, Cockney and maybe Liverpudlian (from the Beatles), whereas in Britain, we could easily tell a Texan accent and a California accent apart. Or Louisiana and New York apart. But if you asked an American to tell Sunderland and Middlesbrough apart, they'd confidently tell you those places aren't real. And that when a British actor impersonates a US accent, they do it properly. When an American actor impersonates a British accent, they try to sound like the butler from Downton Abbey and not like a real human being. Not to say no US actors can do a good British accent of course, but a lot of them just impersonate what they think we all sound like.
I think British musicians who sing with what sounds like an American accent are most definitely and consciously (until it becomes automatic) *affecting* an American accent. There have been bands who have sung with their native British accents (sounding very different from Americans) but you will rarely have heard them in the States because they are never successful there (and the accent may play a part in that lack of success). Singing with a confected American accent is not an outlandish idea when you consider that blues, jazz and rock music originated in the USA so the pronunciation can be considered part of the style and all credit to our British artists for being able to carry it off convincingly. If you want to hear singing with a British accent, listen to Blur's "Park Life". By the same token, I sing in a choir which performs classical music in the UK with a British accent but the accent in which I sing ("Received Pronunciation") - the one the composer or translator had in mind - is not the same as the one I use in normal speech (modified northern). Similarly, with a German text, I would try and sound authentically German rather than anglicising the words.
After listening to many Americans, I've noticed that, in general, many struggle to pronounce words outside of the American accent (you're not one of those people lol). It's like they hear it different to how it's pronounced. Even names and places from fantasy shows. They'll hear it and repeat it straight after, but won't pronounce it correctly. And I've seen this hundreds of times from many Americans. Also, I'm a Ravenclaw too! :)
You're quite right, most singers take on an American accent though notable exceptions are those from Liverpoo; (Beatles) or Manchester (Oasis), northern English groups, or of course Scottish singers like the Proclaimers. Americans on the whole find it harder to escape their own accent but again there are exceptions. the young woman is from Northern Ireland, the accent can be pretty strong.
Pottermore… I’m Ravenclaw too. Nerds unite lol. I didn’t mind the fantastic beasts thing 12:08 it sounds like the imposter syndrome, also same. I have the simarillion, I haven’t read it yet though, it’s only been there a few years lmao, I’ll get round to it 😅
On your explanation of using the translation app. Where's the fun in that? It is it's own lane of humor! Like auto correct in text messages! Funny, fun! Can't have funny when you've being pragmatic!
Connor mate, you have to watch "snatch" it's not a porno..I know it sounds like something the US british would call a porno but its not. Its a great movie, I'm not asking you to react to it cos I don't think you do movies? But it's a british institution. Brad Pitt loved it so much he did the movie for like 20 grand instead of his usual 30 million and I think you would love it. If u do...put the subtitles on
People from all around the world when they sing in English sound like they would be a native speaker whilst singing, then when they speak English they have a thick accent. it's caught me off guard quite a few times when I have heard the singer from bands I like in an interview or something and they turn out to be Swedish or something.
See Allison Hammond interview Harrison Ford and Ryan. He genuinely had a good time. She is the best daytime presenter, see her marry the Rock during an interview.
The lady had a Northern Irish accent. She told her boyfriend to lap the supermarket in the car while she got some quick shopping and on the way out of the store she jumped in the wrong car, covered with hats and scarves,got in the back of the car and thumped the seat shouting 'go go go' as a bit of fun for her boyfriend but it was a middle aged lady who she didnt know, who panicked and crashed the car!!
John Lithgow did a great British accent in the Crown!
Also, “what the heck, excuse my ‘French’”. Me, a Brit “what fucking ‘French’?”
If you haven't already, watch Eddie Redmayne in The Theory of Everything. Excellent movie.
Eddie Redmayne is in "those stupid Harry Potter movies" - but he's also in a lot of good stuff :)
And Kenneth Brannagh is so much more than Gilderoy Lockhart.
Rene Zellweger ( sorry for spelling) did a great English accent for Bridget Jones
I love Harrisons way of highlighting the bleeding obvious.
I thought Stanley Tucci was going to have a heart attack!! Some of these clips are so funny and you laugh with the celebs.
It’s easier I think for English people to do American because the accents are less complicated than English accents so it would be harder the other way round

So Americans learning English only learn RP or cockney accent. So they don't really sound like what most people think a normal English person sounds like.
I also think it's got a lot to do with brits growing up with a tonne of American TV. Can't imagine a lot of Americans grew up watching British TV
I spoked better England that you used to did when you were a children. That is really hard to write. Blessings ❤️🇬🇧
I think it’s just that we are used to being sardined in with various accents and languages all around us constantly.
America has so much space, you can live in one accent and have little exposure to much difference.

Awesome 👍👍👍 Greetings from Helsinki, Finland 🇫🇮🇺🇸🇫🇮🇺🇸
You should check out Graham Norton with Matt Damon, Hugh Bonneville and Bill Murray on the couch. It is by far the funniest episode ever of this show.
All four parts!
Not to forget the performance and participation of Paloma Faith.
actually CSI fly is the best, the Bill Murray one is a close 2nd.
You should have a look at some of the full episodes. The John Cleese, Harry Enfield and Lee Mack episode is hilarious. The Miriam Margolyes, Will I Am and Greg Davies is good too.

Hi you like Paul Whitehouse and Bob Mortimer, and fishing. They have a TV series Fishing together. It's on RUclips I think.

My favourite was on a menu in a restaurant in Bangkok.
The heading they used for Desserts was Happy Endings.
Thank you for the laughs, been a tough day and you’ve cheered me right up, as always x
Seeing the great Robin Williams reminded me that the Popeye Village is still there in Malta where it was filmed and remains popular with tourists.
4:52 notes are held longer. Inflections are used. Music is way different when singing than speaking.
Further to your "get me whatever" comment. When I was an apprentice (one of twelve) we had to take turns at getting stuff from the local shop for the more senior members of staff.

When John cheese is stomping his feet and crying with laughter at a story you've told, you've pretty much won at life 😂
John cheese 😂
Aileen from Derry, legendary!
I like the whatever idea too 😂. I’d order it out of curiosity 🤷♀️.
You can visit Hobbiton in New Zealand, but it's on private land so they charge vast amounts to enter the site.
Whenever I visit a new reasonably upscale restaurant I actually do get the "whatever" option by telling the waiter to let the chef pick his favourites on the menu. It's not always you'd necessarily pick that option again given the choice but you're always certain to get excellent quality.

The "whatever" on menus is the days special

You can get whatever meals in a lot if restaurants it’s called menu of the day
The best part about Graham Norton is that he gets big time celebrities on and gets them really DRUNK. Look up Mark Wahlberg drunk on the Graham Norton show and watch the full interview version....it is highly entertaining. ✌💯😁
4:36 it's because American film is spread worldwide. It's heard more than other accents.
Hope you get to do another Al Murray, if so, try. Al Murray-The Pub Landlord-Beautiful British Tour O2. This one is slightly different to his History stuff, more of a mild roasting of the audience but still fantastic Murray at his best.
“Whatever” on a menu is already a thing, it’s called “chefs choice.”
Nice one. Pretty cool that you're doing these now, after you've had time to 'meet' many of the British guests that were maybe unfamiliar before reacting (Harry & Paul reaction made me chuckle).

That said, we have winegums called 'Spunk' and there's nothing lost in translation there..
It means the same or something very similar in English, at least it used to, before the language was "Hijacked" by those with a limited vocabulary?
For singing, I think it’s because you hold out vowel sounds, and the main difference in accent is differences in vowel pronunciation. So the differences in our accents all just become a musical note, and it’s hard to spot the contrast
Ah fellow Ravenclaw. :) Love Graham Norton Show and the combination of guests are always surprising. :)
I think this Graham nortan show is a tamer version of the originall on channel 4
Harrison Ford is absolutely hammered!

I'd never order nuts and Tory prime ministers
Or nuts and Republican politicians in the US
eddie redmayne has been in so many films
"Scum" is a mistranslation of the Danish word "skum" meaning "foam". It's whipped cream and sugar. Usually flavoured with vanilla and/or lemon zest.
I agree about the new stuff but Eddie has been in fantastic movies
Think of the English actors in 'The Wire'.
In addition to what others have said about watching American TV, another reason for the accents is that generally American accents have a more open and relaxed mouth compared to most British accents.

I can only think of one American that I thought was English due to a flawless accent and that was James Marsters.

Americans on the whole find it harder to escape their own accent but again there are exceptions. the young woman is from Northern Ireland, the accent can be pretty strong.
Saw a video where an American said that you can't tell that Paolo Nutini is Scottish when he sings, I was like... is this guy deaf?
Pottermore… I’m Ravenclaw too. Nerds unite lol.
I didn’t mind the fantastic beasts thing
12:08 it sounds like the imposter syndrome, also same.
I have the simarillion, I haven’t read it yet though, it’s only been there a few years lmao, I’ll get round to it 😅
Graham is a legend! I always find it so sad we no longer have Robin Williams such a waste! Just talk peeps! x
We're force-fed American from before birth so we can do all of the accents.
On your explanation of using the translation app. Where's the fun in that? It is it's own lane of humor! Like auto correct in text messages! Funny, fun! Can't have funny when you've being pragmatic!
Don't think Graham is all that interested in the last menu item...
19:10 At least that one wasn't a translation error. ._.
His crush was Nala, mine was Simba.
In the scene with Harry and Paul the British woman was the film and the television series Sex in the City
Please checkout the Grahame Norton red chair stories 😂😆😂
I genuinely think it's only Americans that can't hear accents when people sing
If you want to read something post Harry Potter, Connor, have you thought about Janet & John?
There are some dark rumours about Tom Hanks...
I agree on your entire Harry Potter rant. I wouldn't even mind 5 prequels, if only they were good. xD
I'm a Ravenclaw too!
Connor mate, you have to watch "snatch" it's not a porno..I know it sounds like something the US british would call a porno but its not. Its a great movie, I'm not asking you to react to it cos I don't think you do movies? But it's a british institution. Brad Pitt loved it so much he did the movie for like 20 grand instead of his usual 30 million and I think you would love it. If u do...put the subtitles on
Oh dear that good
Last part with Robin W is longer...they talking about Jack Nicholson en to mutch endings...
there is no such thing as a British accent!!!!! there is an English, Scottish, Welsh and N. Irish accent but NO British accent!
Don't count your chickens too much. Charlie Hunnams not the best at American accents,and he absolutely butchers the Australian accent in his new film.
The British accent has so many dialects that American doesn’t
Please get rid of those pictures
You dont sing in an accent you sing in a melody
People from all around the world when they sing in English sound like they would be a native speaker whilst singing, then when they speak English they have a thick accent. it's caught me off guard quite a few times when I have heard the singer from bands I like in an interview or something and they turn out to be Swedish or something.
