      And what exactly would such interviews test in proficiency exams ? 80 % of communication in English is non-native to non-native speaker, and an overwhelming majority of users of English don't give a fuck about regional British accents. They are merely linguistic curiosities of interest to a handful of hobbyists or those who may have to live in the UK for a while.

    That was great. I lived in Manchester quite a few years. This is by far my favourite place in the UK. Some people are more articulate than Gallagher yet they keep a strong accent. So it's possible to understand. I have to say the F word is as common up there as "innit" is in London. The nasal aspect is unmistakable. Noticed as well the northern way of saying "I was standing", "I was sitting" which is "I was stood", "I was sat". I heard for the first time people saying "I'm having me dinner" to say they were having lunch (then I heard it years later in the South West). Everywhere you go people call you "love", "flower", "sweetie". Gotta love the North!

    I understood pretty much everything, but then - I have lived in Manchester for 3 years now :D I love a good Manny accent. Also, there's a big variety of accents within Manchester as well. You get South Manchester, which is not as strong, then towards Stockport where it get's all mixed up. North Manc, which is a lot thicker, then Bury. Bolton has got a lot of common features with South Yorkshire, and you also get Salford, and all them towards Altrincham or Warrington etc.

    Both my grandparents were born and raised in Manchester but moved to America in their mid-twenties. They still have their accents but they are definitely weaker now that they've lived most their lives in America. Other people think my grandparents' accents are strong but my sister and I feel we're so used to them we barely even notice. We've traveled to Manchester twice to visit relatives there and my family has never had any trouble understanding Mancunians but we definitely notice their accents are stronger than our grandparents. Our relatives from Manchester have noted that in their opinion, we speak slowly - we're from the Southeast of America.

    I'm from Salford a city next to Manchester. To the untrained ;) ear its identical. What I would say is the 'Th' and the glottalisation of the 't' is something many of us are corrected whilst growing up. I often correct my daughter. It's not an attempt to be posh, my accent is thick but I guess it's easier to communicate with people from outside of the North of England (UK, Scots tend to get us). We also tend to speak quickly so those pronunciations are key otherwise some people can struggle with us.
    Weirdly enough my last employer sent me around Europe. Russians, Serbians, French, Romanian, Norway, Poland..... it always took the first hour to slow down and pick my words carefully.
    Accents fascinate me.

Your videos are helping me a lot. I can't afford a dialect coach for the moment, so I just use my ability to copy to learn, through your videos, and films and interview.. i take notes and it helped me tremendously to get the basics on some of them i don't often hear here in France or on youtube or Netflix shows/movies.

    I enjoyed a lot the exercise! I'm Argentinian. I did understand most of the words but I wasn't able to put it in context. I guess that's because I didn't get the first thing he said: ''I don't know if we were a bit too...'
    Thank you so much for this content! It is a great help and also it's so fun to watch and learn.

    I recently started watching Marcella on Netflix, when I heard Anna Friel speak I instantly thought she had a bit of Manchester in her accent, that I was able to get from watching your videos. I looked it up, and sure enough, she´s from Rochdale. Also Harry Styles doesn't use the "You know what I mean" phrase as LIam Gallagher does, but Harry does star a lot of his sentences with "I mean..."

    "You know what I mean". We tend to ask a lot of questions we don't require answers too. "You know what" I'm pretty sure alright! Originated in Manchester too.
    "Wots's 'appernin' " or "wots g'warnin' loosely" loosely translated as "what is happening/going on?" Is also a popular greeting around Manchester. Not too sure if its travelled yet, but as of approximately 5 years ago my friends in Cornwall, Devon, Gloucestershire, Wiltshire, and Kent wasn't familiar with phrases. My friend who lives Cornwall, but lived in Manchester for about 7 years still says "y'know what I mean" randomly in sentences, although it might just be around us, because ive noticed anyone of any accent, who moves to a different place and forms a new accent, speaks to someone using the accent they used to own it usually pops back up.
    My friends from down south wasnt familiar with the term "muppet" either in the late 90's they loved it though. Adopted it like a cute orphaned puppy. So you might have me to thank for Danny Dyers "fackin mappit" version thus people believing it originated as a cockney thing. On my life no one I spoke too outside of Manchester were familiar with the term..even my friends from liverpool. Again the greeting of "alright" wasn't really known much outside of Manchester in the mid 90's.

    Hello Tom:
    Another example of Mancunian accent would be Mick Hucknall (lead singer of Simply Red, a band with a very personal style with songs like Fairground or Stars).
    I wish you all the best you luck and I hope to buy your book soon

    Great video. You ought to look at how Manchester accents are nuanced across the city (citeh). There's a section where they will say "chimley" instead of "chimney" and "lickle" instead of "little". There's a sort of Rochdale sound and a different Swinton/Salford sound. When you get down to the street level it's a fascinating city for its nuanced dialect and accent.

    It is very interesting, especially for me, who speaks English as a second language. I love the band Oasis, so I tried to watch interviews with Liam Gallagher, if I'm 100% honest I didn't understand usually everything he said, but this video helped me to understand him more and even though his brother Noel Gallagher didn't have as a thick accent, it helped me understand him better as well.

    Without subtitles , it’s really impossible to understand him. But I can almost understand you, Tom! A year ago, I needed English subtitles but yet not.

    Great video Tom. Learning all the little aspects of these different dialects is so interesting to me. I think it would be interesting if you would cover some members of Def Leppard. They are one of my favorite bands and they definitely have an interesting range of accents. Joe Elliott, Rick Savage, and Rick Allen are all from Sheffield (where the band was formed), Phil Collen is from London, and Vivian Campbell is from Belfast.

    The vowel sound in “my” is a diphthong /mai/ . In British English speech, the /a/ is often dropped, while in spoken American English, the /i/ is sometimes dropped.

    I'm not from Manchester or from the UK at all. But my stepmom is British and we have a house in Manchester. Me, my sister and my dad visit her a couple of times per year now for 12 years straight. And when growing up I used to pick up the Mancunian accent from people around me. So now when I'm speaking English, I have quite a bit of Mancunian features in there. (I'm from the Netherlands btw) Sometimes I have to drop my accent when I'm speaking English to people from outside the UK or The Netherlands

    Great video! I am from Germany! With my school English,I almost can't understand anything,what he is talking about! The more I am listening to his talks, I may improve, by understanding his accent! When he sings, he's definitely not singing with a Mancunian accent, that's just ordinary British English! I am wondering, if he could speak proper British English in an interview, if he would have been asked for? He should give more interviews,to non English speaking TV broadcast stations, I'd like to see, whether he would change to normal British English, in order that people do understand him!😢🤪😁

    I used to have a hard time understanding Liam. But since I listen to his vids daily for years, I have noticed I have no problem. If he says something fast, I still may lose him. And I am from Georgia in the SE part of USA! Lots of hillbilly talkers here that I cannot understand.
