TRANSCRIPT
Hi. I'm Gill at www.engvid.com, and today's lesson is about accents in the U.K. So, U.K. accents and also dialects. Okay, so what's the difference between an accent and a dialect? Right. Well, an accent, as you know, is to do with pronunciation, how you pronounce the word. Dialect is when you have a word that only people in a certain area of the country use; it's not a national word, it's a local word that maybe people from other parts of the country, they won't even know what it means, so that's dialect. Okay. So, let's just have a look through some of the accents that we have in the U.K.
The one that you're probably learning as you're learning to pronounce English words is RP. "RP" stands for "Received Pronunciation". It's a slightly strange term. "Received" where do you receive it from? Well, maybe you receive it from your teacher. This is how to say this word. It's a slightly strange expression, but RP, it's usually referred to by the initials. And it's the kind of accent you will hear if you're watching BBC Television programs or listening to BBC Radio. Not everybody on the BBC speaks with an RP accent. The news readers tend to be RP speakers, but not always. But the strange thing is that in this country, only a very small percentage of people do speak with this accent. Apparently, just 3%, but they tend to be people in positions of power, authority, responsibility. They probably earn a lot of money. They live in big houses. You know the idea. So, people like the Prime Minster, at the moment David Cameron, he went to a private school, he went to university, Oxford, so people who have been to Oxford and Cambridge Universities often speak in RP, even if they didn't speak in RP before they went to Oxford or Cambridge, they often change their accent while they are there because of the big influence of their surroundings and the people that they're meeting. So that's RP. It's a very clear accent. So, it's probably a good idea to either learn to speak English with an RP accent, or you may be learning with an American accent, a Canadian accent, all of those accents are very clear. Okay. And being clear is the most important thing.
Okay, so moving on. RP, as I should have said, is mostly in the south of the country; London and the south. So, also "Cockney" and "Estuary English" are in the south. Okay. So, Cockney is the local London accent, and it tends to spread further out to places like Kent, Essex, other places like that. Surrey. There's a newer version of Cockney called "Estuary English". If you think an estuary is connected to a river, so the River Thames which flows across the country, goes quite a long way west. So anyone living along the estuary, near the river can possibly have this accent as well.
So, just to give you some examples, then, of the Cockney accent, there are different features. So, one example is the "th" sound, as you know to make a "th" sound, some of you may find it difficult anyway, "the", when you put your tongue through your teeth, "the", but a Cockney person may not use the "the", they will use an "f" sound or a "v" sound instead, so the word "think", "I think", they would say would say instead of: "think", they would say it like that: "fink", "fink", and the top teeth are on the bottom lip, "think". And words like "with" that end with the "th", instead of "with", it will be "wiv", "wiv", "wiv". "Are you coming wiv me?" So that is one of the things that happens with the Cockney accent.
Words like "together" would be "togever". Okay? The number "three", t-h-r-e-e is often pronounced "free": "We have free people coming to dinner. Free people." So, there can be confusion there, because we have the word "free", which has a meaning in itself, "free", but if you actually mean "three", the number three, there can be some confusion. So don't get confused by "free people". -"Oh, they're free? They're free to come?" -"No, there are three of them. Three people who are free to come." Ah, okay.
This lady is so british my coffee turned into tea.
Jakob Strand lol
ROFL
Jajajaja muy bueno!
loool
She reminds a bit of my english teacher at high school Mrs. Gardner. She was from Liverpool and had a very strong nothern accent.
What a dear. This has made me realise what’s missing from RUclips - lovely ladies and gentlemen of a certain generation, bestowing their teachings on us ❤️
Laura Reeves Sweet comment. You’re so right!
I absolutely agree.
Right
Thoroughly enjoyed the video and your comment is an absolute gem! xx
Laura Reeves good one In HULL Yorkshire No one pronounces The Letter H so it’s ULL ELLO ow are ya
I just figured I'd watch a minute or two of this, but before I knew it, 24 minutes had gone by. What a joy this lady is to watch! A charming and succinct presenter. Thank you for explaining these accents.
Hahahaha. Yes indeed . I typed same thing before i read your comment.
I can,t believe!
Is that real ? What kind of a magic she use to draw people towards her.!?
Same
I love this woman for the single fact that she included Canada as an english-speaking country and didn’t just lump us into the US. Living north of the US means we get forgotten all the time but we are a distinct society, have our own culture and speak differently than our neighbour. We mostly use British-spelling and call many of the same things a different word than the US uses. Thank you Kind Lady for acknowledging us over here! Lol. Have a great one!
Uhhh well, these days the US is mostly used as negative example, at least in my opinion, so not too bad not being mentioned as often 😂 but I absolutely get what you mean, I got relatives in Winnipeg and they tell me the same. I was happy too when she mentioned Canada 😍
Canadians certainly don't get forgotten over here mate.We're brothers in arms,with closely intwined history.All the best from Yorkshire!
I like Canada as it us as cold there as in Russia..sometimes I think we are brothers)hehe
All my Canadian family are Scottish. They also say "Eh?" all the time, which is very much a NE Scotland thing.
Apparently, according to American comedy, Canadians say "Ay" all the time.
We actually use that a lot in the south of England.
An example would be "So what do you think ay?" Or if you didn't quite hear what someone said you might say "ay?"
It's not really considered polite speech and as a child the reply would be "Ay!? That's what horses eat, say pardon". Haha..
Never stopped me, I still say it all the time ... don't I ... ay?
She’s the Bob Ross of language teachers.
Yeah, indeed! She's so calming and friendly :D!

Of course! 😆
When you're British but still decided to watch this video
I'm English and I watched it! 😁
I watched even though I'm British 👍
As a colombian guy I also enjoy watching videos that talks about the accents and dialects from my country.
I'm Scottish and I watched it.
I'm Aussie and I have watched Aussie vids...😎
Bless her. As a Brit, I can confirm that she is the most British thing on youtube. If you see her in the chemist, let her go first.
Hello sir! Do u know any RUclipsrs or people I can hear that have a good British accent like her?
OR LET HER GET ON THE DOUBLE DECKER BUS FIRST 🇬🇧
Have to agree with you there. I'm not even British but she definitely seems like it. Such a sweet lady too.
I have been speaking English for my entire life...Feels like she's teaching me again...I love it XD
I love her with my whole heart. 😭 Can I adopt her as my third grandma? I just want to sit and chat with her. 😄💕
Also, great video! Very informative and fascinating that one small country could have so many accents. 💜
Very true
The same feeling
Me too, she's lovely😍
Same honesty
This lady really lowers my blood pressure for some reason.
Martin Quitugua she's very soothing to listen too...
I am in love with how pleasant and soothing I find her demeanor.
This is the weirdest compliment I've seen so far
Unintentional ASMR
Ya...her voice and teaching is magical...she has a soothing voice...love her and love her pedagogy:-)
She is an excellent tutor who explains the origins of words, and how we can be different but also unique in our ways of expressing ourselves. Thank you very much.
As a Native English speaker myself, from East Essex. This woman is very good. Never heard British accents explained quite as well as this before.
She looks like the sweetest lady, she reminds me of the pink fairy godmother in sleeping beauty!
Yeee, me too :)
Yes she does! She is a lady, with traditional English values. I am English and she is typical. My daughter is at Oxford, and has a Surrey accent.
Fantastic women
She actually reminds me of the green one 😂 Fauna I think
Make it blue.
Why am I as an English person sat in bed watching this at 2 am.
haha, I am watching now at 3a.m
@@jono8728 he's a genuine English as he was sat while watching this video
Because she is brilliant!
Bruh actually same here, as a Cornish person as well this video was still interesting but it is actually 11:00 and i don’t care
Blutwolf It annoys me a great deal too, but it is common usage in England. (German living in UK here)
Very interesting. I came here by chance but I enjoyed it very much. I have north-east American accents and now hear more British at work. I have no much problems because they speak the standard London accents. When I visited Scotland and Wales, I had a hard time to understand them.
Probably the best British English language teacher right now.👍👍👍. She is gentle, sweet and her teaching skill is so adorable. Her lessons are comprehensive as well as informative. Lots of love from Nepal 🙏🙏🙏
“Och! I fell in the loch!”
This lady is delightful. ❤️
yeah she has beautiful voice
The Scots say that all the time.
It sounds so funny in Russian 😂
legendary/Gaming Legendaries !! You mean “while you were sitting”
I wish I could hug her. She's too competent, she should have her own tv program and it should be aired in Italy. Chances are young girls and boys would really appreciate a fine lesson like this.
🇮🇹.. esattamente!ho avuto un'insegnante simile per il First e l'ho amata!
🇬🇧 exactly! I've had one teacher like her for my First examination and I've absolutely loved her!
*hoog
An excellent guide to some of Britain's many varied accents. It is also worth mentioning a recent addition to the UK's dialect collection - Multicultural London English or MLE. This is mostly spoken by younger people in the big cities and is a mixture of Cockney, Jamaican Patois, Arabic, Bengali and numerous other linguistic influences. It is a melting pot of sounds firmly rooted in music and youth culture.
Dear Gill, just wonderful how you explain the different accents of english language for me as a German.
I have been visiting Scotland for some years now and i really love this part of UK.
But every time i spent my holidays there i thought, oh my god. I have never learned English before in my life. The reason is that i just know the R.P. accent.
The most lovable english lesson I've ever had!!! And she's such a charming Lady.
She sure is...
That moment when you find yourself watching a video on how to do a British accent when you already have a British accent...
Same cumbrian here
LOL. So funny!
Me too, Nottingham here!
Ha ha that’s funny!
County Durham here, just luv it :O)
Miss, in all honestly, you are the only accent teacher on youtube that have really brought some form of program that makes sense when teaching accents. The other videos probably talk about how they learn the accent, talk about a few little vocal points, compare it to American and a few other points but they don’t go through it as thoroughly as you do. Bravo!! Keep it up Miss!!
Nice comment. Totally agree.
Native U.S. English speaker, and Deaf. I lived for the past several years in NW England. Got a handle on the local accent through lip patterns but had less/messier exposure to other accents. Such clear explanations here, even if you can't hear her! I just happened upon this video whilst going down the RUclips rabbit hole and stayed. I love this lady! And she MAKES REAL CAPTIONS, not the autocraptions.
It honestly never occurred to me that a deaf person would have difficulty with different accents. Thanks for sharing.
"You cannae be serious.... man!"
Bless this pure woman
😂 och
She's pure dead brilliant this wumman!
I don't say dinnae I say don't
Cannnae neab can? 😂😂😂 oww I luv this accent
I see new this
My friends from England refer to "RP" as "Really Posh."
Because whoever speaks it tends to be really posh- types of customers u serve who expect you to love your job lol
The British class thing is so strange to me. There are a lot of English people where I live and it surprises me how some of them try to translate this into American life. It just doesn’t work. Many families, including mine, have a combined history of both upward and downward mobility, lol.
Na that was funny ! 😀😂👌
RP is neutral, not posh. Over and above RP, there are upper class accents and those of the nobility and royalty. Although they are rare these days, you will hear them in certain cicles.
@@Hertog_von_Berkshire Yes ,Jacob Rees Mogg sounds RP(really posh).
I’ve never seen or heard a better explanation of British accents. Exceptional teaching in every way. 🦋
Gill is such a nice and great English teacher I ever watched or met. She speak really clear and genuine English which can be well received and understood fully!
She sounds so friendly I just wanna give her a hug
Tess Gonzalez I wish she was my nanny she is that nice
a hoog, you mean?
every time i watch one of the videos in this channel while laying down on my bed, i tend to change my position and sit down properly. what a pleasant lady, she deserves all my respect and attention.
agree
im asian and imho,american english sounds clearer.i cant understand a lot when british speak,but i still sooo love british accent i really love listening to them speak :-D and jill,i think it's my 1st time listening to british speak and understanding it so so well,probably coz it's slow (hihi) ... all clear ... thank you for the lesson and keep it up! my respect goes to you with love ... ♡♡♡
ooops! im sorry ive spelled your name wrong :-(
ooops! im sorry ive spelled your name wrong :-(
agree
Frankly, I am a person who loves to learn and use British accent, and I love this channel. I've just started to take an interest in this subject and I loved having this kind of content on this channel. I'm not normally someone who likes long videos, but this video really caught my attention and I watched it all. Fantastic. Thank you so much
Absolutely love Gill, she truly is a treasure. I could listen and learn from her every day, and it would be a total pleasure!
Amazing, engaging and interesting teaching, Gill is the best on RUclips.
I don't understand how this video has any dislikes. The woman is so lovely and she presents beautifully and clearly, the video is very intuitive. People need to stop hating.
There is nervous and sick people everywhere. But the likes and good appreciation is way up!
Yes many dislikes. She is helping us to understand the root of the English language. I'm a Tamilian. It's really really really helps me in understanding the English.
Clorox Bleach Sometimes people just click the wrong place by accident. I've done it a few times.
Not stereotyping but I find a lot of strongly opinionated Americans tend to dislike videos about the British accents. As I said, not stereotyping and again, as I said its only some very opinionated Americans who still begrudge the British from times former to the war of independence.
Just a side note, I'm not saying its ONLY Americans but it is logical that America would be the majority of those as there is no logical reason for a Briton to dislike and America has the largest internet/electronic products consumption.
When RUclips recommends an actually good video
Eduardo Yamamoto and recommending 3 years after release
This lady is very kind and a great professor. She explains everything in a very clear way. She's doing her job very well. Bravo for her !
I am genuinely happy that RUclips recommended this video to me. The lesson was interesting, albeit brief, and the calm manner of the presentation was so pleasant. I will browse through the channel for more content to help me brush up my English. Thank you for making your knowledge accessible!
everyone: reading the comments regularly.
Me: reading the comments with British accent.
same
Same thing LOL
🤣🤣🤣🇬🇧
Guilty 🤣🤣🤣
ahahahahlolololol
My Dad spoke RP because he was a solicitor in London and conscious of appearances but when he'd get a bit pissed the Yorkshire accent would creep back out.
Paul Kerr Stopped the video at the halfway mark but is the Yorkshire accent you are speaking of the same as Midland/Northern accent told in the video.Very interested in UK,their culture and all the accents.
It's so funny, I am American as is my husband but his mother was born and raised in Scotland. She's all but lost her accent now and sounds quite American but when she returns from a visit home you can hear the accent peek through.
@@carynschmidt5061 I'm the same. When I go back to my home town Barnsley my accent gets stronger. My family and work colleagues have noticed this and tease me about it.
🤣🤣🤣👍
When I get squiffy, I actually start typing words using dialect.
As a teacher of English, let me tell you it's been a pleasure to hear you speak! Thank you for this interesting information.
She included the Canadian accent in her recommendation for being clear I’m crying in Canadian...
As a man born and raised in Scotland, I properly loved this video. That was the most polite Scottish accent I've heard. Haahaa.
Brad Halliday
I'm watching this video, but haven't reached to the Scottish accent part yet.
Speaking of a Scottish accent, could you please define the differences between this list of Edinburgh accents? Are they all Morningside (a highly educated Edinburgh)? - Yours truly, a foreigner
• Richard DEMARCO + the late Capt. Eric "Winkle" BROWN (I think these two accents share some similarities in many ways.)
• Sir Malcolm RIFKIND
• Sir Chris HOY
• Ian CHARLESON in 'Chariots of Fire' (probably his natural accent, but sadly no interview clips of his exist in YT)
• Englishwoman Maggie SMITH as Miss Jean Brodie (the accent re-used for the role of Prof. Minerva McGonagall in the Harry Potter series)
Brad Halliday , I was waiting for how she would describe Scots English, so many variations I wouldn't know where to start. So glad she didn't use the American term British English where she was referring to RP - as if Scots and Scots Irish were not also British English.
Your accent is the most clear I've ever heard
Yes, definitely some northern aspects, an educated northerner, neutral accent of the speech lessons student.
I wish every native speaker has accent like that :(
Mine would be terrible...lol!
What a lovely lady. I recall watching this video a couple of years ago, and I'm rewatching it now with my boyfriend who is from the Midlands, we both absolutely loved it.
This is the longest video I’ve seen in order to learn more about accents and I loved it. It felt like a 3 min video. Thank you.
SHE IS SO ADORABLE. I love how she chuckles to herself xD
She s lovely
What means chuckles please?
@@nataliaa23 "chuckles" are when you laugh, but in a quiet way and for a short time. It is NOT laughing loudly and making lots of noise.
3 a.m. "Learn British Accents and Dialects"

The Best english teacher on RUclips so far. Informative, suitable pace of speaking and in details. Thank you lady
The teacher Gill’s accent is very clear. Very easy to understand.
Thanks so much ❤
this lady is precious and must be protected
Mahardika Pitaloka yes, I agree.
Must be protected lollll
And this is the moment when you realize what a real British accent is. This lady is a gift for anyone who wants to learn English with class and pomp.
true
She sounds a bit north of London to me. More midlands.
@@steveedney8011 she said she’s from midlands
Hello
Dear Lady, you are the first teacher who explains clearly and with examples the différents English accents in the Uk. 🇬🇧 . Thanks a lot from Belgium 🇧🇪
A grandma like this lady is so adorable. Her videos encouraged me.
What an adorable lady! How I wish she had been my English teacher back in school.
Alex Gabriel.....I feel the same
we all wish
Me too!
Agreed!
And me! I like how she's demonstrating with the UK's accents. I'm very observant with accents.
First time in my life , i can understand each words from a British person. Thank you for your super clear explaining.
Each word- singular
All the words - "plural" for "many"
@@lilianikolova7685 In fact, what difference between "each" and "every" that's making me confuse everytime...
Lovely! This is the english class i've waited for years! Loved the handwritting, too! Thanks a lot Mrs. Gill, you have a new fan from Brazil.
I need learn this , I am so hooked on the series , Are you being served?
Grandma here still has high energy to teach everyone . Thank you 😘
Everyone: I've got mail
Cockney: I've got mayo
I've got maił
I laughed at this more than I should have 💀
Isn't it more like "I've go mayo" without the t?
Everyone: You've mail
Cockney: You've got mayo
'got mayw
I wouldn't mind to take a day-long class with her... she's just so sweet and clear!
I'd be too relaxed for a whole day listening to her. Then again, she's just so lovely that I'd probably just sit there smiling at her.
Same!!
I studied in Nottingham and it’s very nice to hear these accents again, especially the cockney accents and accents of East Midlands. Thank you indeed.
What a Pity I have not learnt my English with your lessons
when I started to so many years ago. For sure my level would have been lot better than what I got so far. But it is never too late to improve, thanks Jill to delight us with your lessons
The most adorable grandma to ever live
Yep Dude
I appreciate this lesson very much. I have a degree in English but no teacher ever taught me about the different British accents. I find it very useful. Thank you.
That's true and it's a huge surprise for all foreigners!😂😂😂😂
I’m from the north west of England (Lancashire) and this lovely African lady thought I was American.
The way she defined these accents... It's like dripping a color in water... Completely dissolved... Wonderful way ... Thanks ma'am
This really is an excellent teaching video about English accent. This lady's teaching style just remind me my Australian English teacher Ms. Lucy. She is over 70 years old now.
Shes got that British accent that I would understand 100% of, contrary to some thicker ones
I really like that she signifies clarity as being most important when communicating. Very informative
I think Cokney is the hardest to understand.
Have fun if you ever go to Glasgow, I'm British but oh god they talk with a very strong accent
As a transcriber, I can tell you that clarity is important.
Alas, when you meet Joe Bloggs in the street, you might not get this level of clarity...
What an intelligent woman she is. Idk if many of you notice but almost all RUclipsrs cut and chop their way through their video postings as they can’t maintain their thoughts/message that they’re trying to get across for more that about 20 seconds. This woman gave a superb lesson all in one single take. Afterward she remembered to remind her viewers to subscribe if they liked the content of the lesson, etc. This all may seem minuscule/trivial but I promise you most RUclipsrs either simply forget to remind their viewers of this at the end of their videos or they’re just too lazy and therefore have a prerecorded, “canned” reminder message that they insert into the end of each of their videos. I’m just impressed at the quality of her lessons. I truly doubt you will see this, Gill, but if you do- please know that you’ve got a loyal subscriber! And also, please keep making content that we can all learn from and enjoy! Thanks a ton!
She actually pauses and there is an edited break about 4/5ths of the way through. So in two takes, still very good and extremely clear.
Thanks a lot for the time and effort you put into explaining the different British accents. English is my 2nd language but I managed to get good at communicating in it.
I'm not even a native or english talker often , but this woman has the clearest e most comprehensive diction I ever listen to in life.
This woman is a real English lady🤗 ... she's wonderful in every way ...
I'm sorry I didn't have an English teacher like her ...
As a Russian person, obsessed with languages and accents, I found this mini lecture vastly informative and interesting. Being in self-isolation, I took it upon myself to learn the most popular of the accents in English speaking countries, such as the UK, Ireland etc. This quickly proved to be quite a laborious task, but this video was extremely helpful, as it's pretty difficult to find a good lesson on this topic. Thank you.
Yes, lots of thanks from Russia!
You are so eloquent; you use so much sophisticated language! Huge commendations for your ability in English, it’s truly admirable.
From your well written comment nobody would know English wasn't your first language. I know bits of a few languages but other than English I only speak Hungarian to a reasonable level but my written Hungarian is poor. Learning accents and slang is so useful in day to day chats and conversations. Good luck with the English ones, there are a hell of a lot and some are hard to understand even for native speakers.
@@tealwashablemarker8886 this is how I find myself thinking after reading one too many victorian novels ahah
Right???!!!! I am born and bred in the States, and I will have to really practice this. I don't seem to sound quite like her when I try; however, to be fair, she is pronouncing other syllables and vowels in certain words different words, different than "we" say it. (Ea. doctor: DAWC-tah)
A true British lady…Her pronunciation is such a great delight to my ears! I’m in love with UK🇬🇧
She is absolutly perfect!
I love her !She so emotional explanes the subject.
Im french and i learn english, its the first time i can understand someone speaking english (start and end) . Thank you for this video.
Te ssy your English is really good👍

Te ssy bon travail !
I'm Russian and I understand you
I´m portuguese and i understand you
17:39 her laugh made my day, this lady is so polite and kind.
So charming, I couldn't help but listening to the whole video and learn about the variety of accents in England. Thank you Miss Gill.
I'm so glad to hear a professor that makes me remember my childhood when I was learning english on the William Shakespeare' school and of course I subscribed to your channel my dear lady. Soy de Argentina, (I'm from Argentina).
Love this woman! Such clear explanations and such an earnest personality
I'm french and I can understand perfectly all words she says... perfect
Me too !
Same :)
I'm Russian, from Vladivostok.
Elle est strictement géniale.
And im south east asian
Me too. I'm from Panama
Excellent breakdown of the various and fascinating accents of the British Isles. Delightful, thank you!
I learned my english in south England (Sussex) and then I move to Liverpool that was a big impact for me and my wife, I feel like I have to learn all over again.
Now I still have accent from Brighton with some scouse and of course my natural Spanish accent!!
The Midlands/Northern accents retain a lot of the sounds of scandinavian. It's very clear to my ears as a danish speaker.
A lot of our towns and villages still retain their 'viking' names too. They had a huge presence in the North of the UK so that's probably why :)
I worked with a good friend from Norway, and his English accent seemed indistinguishable from a Northern England one, at least to my ears. So there is no doubt something in what you say @trefod
Newcastle/Geordie accent is most similar I think. It still has the 'hiccup' sounds like in Danish words.
Have you heard Ole Gunnar Solsjkaer’s accent? Would explain a lot! Lol
Interesting!
I'm Scottish, don't really know why I started watching this but you're so charming I just couldn't turn off. Och! I fell in the loch!
I'm several generations American with Scots-Irish English French ancestors. As I'm reading Reginald Hill novels especially the Sixsmith series I would just love to know how they sounded when they talked.

Hi I'm from Peru. Can you help me practice English? ☺
Mariana Stewart I've been to peru and I taught English in Tacna
I am the only one who read his comment with a Scottish accent? :D
You are absolutely lovely! I love your class and your way of teaching! Just lovely! Thank you for sharing with us.
This lovely lady has one of those natural personalities and demeanor that just make someone so pleasant to listen to...and before you know it, you've watched 24 minutes of a video you landed on by mistake and loved all of it.
6:56 - That's the sight of a person seriously getting mesmerized by the beauty of their own field - and with good reason.. :)
Yes 😃
Omg I hadn't noticed. This lady is so lovely :)
I'm an English teacher and I want to play this video to all of my students!!!!
She is lovely, interesting and engaging. So interesting learning all of the subtle ( and huge) differences in regional uk accents and dialects
What a dear lady. This made my day... youtube algorithm, nice one
Mam, I love to watch your video and also enjoying the lesson as well. The process of teaching is very nice and simple, even person who have studied in non-English medium can easily follow your teaching. Pls keep this style and keep the journey. Your fans are with you & god bless you.
Oh my-
You will be one of my favorite to improve my English. I love how you pronounce every single word clearly and so calm. Also, I have subscribed your channel.
With love, from Indonesia 🇮🇩
I'm a Native New Yorker, with a Nuyorican accent and i found this so fascinating. Ive never heard the difference in English accents explained, i loved how she explained the origins behind the different sounds.
Great Britain is an island with lots of different accents
I often struggle with the us accents especially southern but people from New York speak well
She looks like Granny from Tweety 😄. So cute....... This is a very helpful video indeed. I speak english with american accent, because I learnt english from movies and songs 😂
Same but since i became fluent in English when i was 14 thx to all these American songs lmao..(now I'm 18 ) I really want to have one accent cause a lot of Americans understand me even when I speak fast 🌚 but sometimes i shock them with different accents according to my mood xD. .
This lesson is very calming. The British accent feels very therapeutic to me.
Your pronunciation is simply WONDERFUL, Gill. Love it!
How utterly charming this lady’s lesson was. I enjoyed watching and listening thoroughly!
She reminds of several teachers I was lucky enough to have.
Hello! I'm American, and I just wanted to say I love your accent. It's so soothing.
her clarity made my understanding lot easier. Thank you Gill
Very educative, fasinating and enjoyable. Hope she can make a series of episodes in greater details in different parts of the UK.
With this lady talking, laying on my bed in a coronavirus situation is a luxe.
Same here 😂
It's funny how we come across these videos by accident....I was checking the difference between Esto and Eso in Spanish...then the eyes notice something to the right and that gets clicked as well. Clicking right... known as the 'R' factor if I'm not stealing that phrase from somewhere.....

I have no words to thank you for the wonderful video and describe how exciting it is to hear the way you explain it. this is a very unique gift that you are gifted with. wonderful ... thank you so much for the video where you can touch hearts teaching British accents and dialects. Thank you 🙏❤️
Loved this.. I teach English, in France to youngin's and I love hearing all of this... I am a native Californian, so interesting to me that your native accent pronounces like ours, for some sounds.
