@@coledekoPeople who say/think they don’t have an accent are saying that because their accent sounds “normal” to them. They don’t think about their way of speaking as an accent, even though it is. The font comparison is similar because yeah it’s obviously a font, but it’s a very basic font that we’re all used to seeing so it doesn’t feel like a font, if you get what I mean.

kledo5778 okay so yes maybe that but what I meant was that millennials would probably still have their accent, I’m assuming a lot of these people have lived out of the state for a while and have faded their accent
Funny how the US is so gigantic, yet the changes in their accents are not that dramatic when you compare to Britain’s size and how it changes so much across much smaller distances
Yeahh, most likely since the US is so much younger than GB, which existed for hundreds of years even before ppl started moving around much. In comparison, more than half of the US isn't even 200yrs old. And in that time there was a lot of movement so there was never the chance much for distinguished dialects to pop up like back in Britain
@@edmojoey Correct, but some of the States' accents are lost with increased inter-connection. For example here in the UK where I live, in the 1950s many people in parts of the country spoke in more regional accents, with certain phrases and forms of grammar dating back to Middle English, but not used in Standard English. I read a story of a child during WWII who left London during the Blitz, to a small town in Northern England, and heard completely unique forms of pronunciation and grammar, which were leftovers of the more complex grammar structure English had in the past. When he visited the town again a few years ago, he couldn't find anybody who spoke like they used to.
Seriously, I live in a Ohio and we are surrounded by so many accents. Northern Ohio “My MAm” hard As. Middle Ohio sounds like a standard news caster, Southern Ohio twangs, and rural Ohio accents that are different than southern. Above is Michigan with the lakes accent, and below is northern KY with a faster speaking twangy sound than the rest of KY.
I think when people say that, they mean they believe they have what they consider to be the "standard American accent". I'm guilty of it myself. I've said that before because I felt mines wasn't attached to a certain area or region. Even when people say they have a certain accent, I find it kind of hard to notice. The differences throughout the entire country is pretty subtle to me besides certain ones that are thicker than most like the stereotypical NY or Southern accent.
Basically, they all sound the same (maybe southern accent can be distinctive..) compared to the accent differences in Britain.. cockney, scouse .. they all crazy ..
... not realizing that every single person on Earth (who talks) has an accent... You can say many things about it (that it is not distinct, or not particular to a state or a region, or I dunno what), but you can't not have it.
The amount of them saying so was outrageous, these people didn't know what they were talking about. The New Jersey guy saying they had no accent, I could not disagree more.
We do have an accent in Arizona. In Tucson and small towns it sounds like we were raised by people who's parents were raised with Spanish but never spoke it themselves. A dirty Spanglish is the only way I can describe it lmao

Yeah... We do drop a lotta letters in that word in particular. And it really is "Mou'ns", not "Mountains". We're too lazy to pronounce those middle letters, so we make do with a glottal stop and assume we don't sound weird. (We totally sound weird.)

You needed to do this with older people. Young people brought up with tv and media and who travel more and mix with various others through long vacations and later education and through immigration have their accents greatly diluted and neutralized.
@O1LMc You're so lucky, dude. My grandmother used to live in Bristol, Maine (she moved in 2018) and my family and I would go there every year on a road trip. Her house was huge, and even had a separate apartment and barn, and she owned a huge pond with lilypads so big we couldn't get them out no matter how hard we pulled on them. There was this super pretty garden, too. Uh, there were also a lot of coyotes. But. Yeah. I haven't been there in so long, and I just remember going out for lobsters and looking at the boats and going shopping in Damariscotta. Maybe it's not the most ideal place to live, but it was super cool when I went. Maryland gets boring sometimes, lol.
If they would have actually gotten a random sample instead a bunch of young professional hipsters then there would have been a nice variation in English accents. Instead everyone was just speaking the same way and varying a few words
@Allô français canadien There are plenty of different accents in the US also. They just didn't do a good job finding actual people who speak with them in this video.
Florida is so weird! The Peninsula is divided into three. South Florida has a Hispanic American influenced accent, Central Florida is a bland vanilla accent, and Nothern Florida is almost like Georgia.
@@candicehoneycutt4318 And the more south you go the more Spanish Latino it gets. Except for the Florida Keys which is another plain dull Atlantic vanilla accent just like Central Florida colonized by the same white Americans.
I never realized Californian's had an accent until I went on vacation to the East Coast. Everyone says we sound like TV stoners/beach bums and YES the word "like" really is used a lot LMAO :(
It is possible not to have an accent actually. Pronouncing every English word correctly as written is speaking without an accent, its how modern American News Anchors speak.
@@lithium23 The General American accent is probably the most ubiquitous accent in the English language and probably has the best claim to being the "right" accent.
@sophia lazzaro its still a bad representation of a typical texan accent. after they used a latino to represent floridians in this video, i dont believe any of these accents.
“We pronounce our Ts as Ds.” Hate to burst your bubble, lady. But that’s not a Connecticut only thing. That’s an American English in general thing. Everyone in this country does it. Like water and little. Whether you have a New York accent, a California Valley girl accent, or a Georgia accent…you are pronouncing those Ts as Ds. Because that’s part of the wider American accent.
3:40 Californians do this as well. Sacramen(t)o. San(t)a Monca. San(t)a Cruz. We never usually say the hard T, we kind of just fill it in with our minds.
@@manillargo As a native to AZ I personally think I mix California valley girl and Texas twang ever so slightly. But in general we are very accent neutral.
Everyone in the world has an accent, but it's indistinguishable to us because we can't see the way we speak our whole lives as being out if the ordinary.

As someone living In California, I can confirm that almost everyone I talk to says “like” at least once in a sentence.
Y'all spread it to Texas why'd you do that

OMG I just thought like ... *sigh*
I do that but I live on I diana and apperently I'm the only person I know that says like way too much

I like how the Floridian accent was just straight up Spanish

The Texas girl sounds like she is on the verge of tears
For real
She was just mocking the Texas accent but did it badly.
Cause she was forced to wear a Beto shirt
she got dem hips tho
She was probably trying to play it cool but her nervousness was showing through.
2:30 "ya gotta hopdequamfecan and get youself some chowdahhhh"
That poor texan girl, she sounds like she’s about to cry.
WMM 1138 that’s what I said
I thought that was her accent! lol
Thats the usual down here
It’s cause of her Beto shirt. That’s not Texan
Lmao
The moment that Boston girl spoke I just zoned out like,,all I heard was “get some chowder”
“You gotta park the car in Harvard yard and give the guy a quarter for some chowder” my entire dad’s side of the family has Worcester accents which are similar so it just sounds normal to me lol
“Y’all wanna go to Waffle House”
Bruh I feel attacked
Yo, fellow Georgian- be proud- I live up north now and I miss Waffle Houses on every corner. That vibe when ya go into a Waffle House at 4 in the mornin can't be beat.
It’s true though.

You needed to do this with older people. Young people brought up with tv and media and who travel more and mix with various others through long vacations and later education and through immigration have their accents greatly diluted and neutralized.
Yes!
I agree and I’m 23
This was the "woke" version
@@truthseekerv1318tf does this even mean 😂
@@RenzoBoomin means the video was more about showing you a diversity of people rather than people with actual accents
As an Australian, I heard like 5-6 accents out of 50.
That's because the accent is really only applied to certain words
@@jvyeknom really?
That's fascinating
It’s because they chose a bad selection lol a lot of the southern states have a different accent then what they put in this vidro
@@jvyeknom That's not really true. The accent is easier to hear in certain words, but it's always there.
Same though... up that to about 7-9 tho ;-;
in michigan we speak reaaally quickly and words mush together but we still understand each other perfectly-we also pronounce most of our Ts as Ds

@@parmesanjon as a Bostonian you are dead on accurate 😂
@@parmesanjon Same But it sounds southern Maine
@O1LMc Same. That accent was pure Boston, NOT Maine
@O1LMc You're so lucky, dude. My grandmother used to live in Bristol, Maine (she moved in 2018) and my family and I would go there every year on a road trip. Her house was huge, and even had a separate apartment and barn, and she owned a huge pond with lilypads so big we couldn't get them out no matter how hard we pulled on them. There was this super pretty garden, too. Uh, there were also a lot of coyotes. But. Yeah. I haven't been there in so long, and I just remember going out for lobsters and looking at the boats and going shopping in Damariscotta. Maybe it's not the most ideal place to live, but it was super cool when I went. Maryland gets boring sometimes, lol.
Am I the only one that just heard literally the same accent throughout the whole video besides when people were forcing themselves to sound different
Ikr
I think they should have picked random people without telling them what they were doing.
Yup agree
If they would have actually gotten a random sample instead a bunch of young professional hipsters then there would have been a nice variation in English accents. Instead everyone was just speaking the same way and varying a few words
@Allô français canadien There are plenty of different accents in the US also. They just didn't do a good job finding actual people who speak with them in this video.
Florida is so weird! The Peninsula is divided into three. South Florida has a Hispanic American influenced accent, Central Florida is a bland vanilla accent, and Nothern Florida is almost like Georgia.
yup
Isn't the saying something like, 'the more north you go, the further south you get'?
Yes
@@candicehoneycutt4318 And the more south you go the more Spanish Latino it gets. Except for the Florida Keys which is another plain dull Atlantic vanilla accent just like Central Florida colonized by the same white Americans.
Nutshell Bread thanks💀
“Kind of like Boston but a bit more drunk” is so real. Maine accents just give off “idgaf and I’ll fight you” energy.
The main categories are definitely:
1. Southern
2. Midwesty
3. Bostonian
4. New Yorkish
6. Canadian-like
7. Californian

It is possible not to have an accent actually. Pronouncing every English word correctly as written is speaking without an accent, its how modern American News Anchors speak.
@@hellfruit5612 As a British person with a mid London accent I would disagree
@@lithium23 The General American accent is probably the most ubiquitous accent in the English language and probably has the best claim to being the "right" accent.

“We pronounce our Ts as Ds.”
Hate to burst your bubble, lady. But that’s not a Connecticut only thing. That’s an American English in general thing. Everyone in this country does it. Like water and little. Whether you have a New York accent, a California Valley girl accent, or a Georgia accent…you are pronouncing those Ts as Ds. Because that’s part of the wider American accent.
