Technically "route" (root) and "route" (rowwte) mean different things depending on how they are pronounced.

Hey Tash! First, I loved this video! I was dying when you guys were laughing about the whole "been" thing. Second, I'm from England and here's a bunch of stuff I say differently. We say tube like "chube", been like "bean", a shopping cart is called a "trolley". A "buggy" or "pram" would describe the wheeled contraption that you push babies around in. Gym shoes are called "trainers", we'd call a faucet a "tap", a line that people wait in would be a "queue". I've also never been to a house that has a food disposal, it's not very common here. Last letter of the alphabet is "zed" :P I would call a coloured pencil a coloured pencil and a crayon is like a waxy pencil that typically kids use. Now a completely random one... my family is a bit weird and we call the thing that changes TV channels a "twizzer". I didn't even realise it wasn't normal until I went round to a friends house and asked for the twizzer and they looked at me like "Ummmm... what?" XD so yeah, that's pretty much it. I love both of your channels and I look forward to more videos!

Now want to see these two argue over how to say the sentence, "Natasha has been eating pasta in her pajamas."

Im canadian and tbh some of my pronunciation is like americans, but also neverr have i said beeeennn😂 i pronouce it like bin lool

ALSO I’ve noticed myself saying “bin” lately so idk I think in the moment I just assumed I say “been” 😂 I think i just use them interchangeably actually! So, hi, I’m sloppy Rebecca too!

"Queue" is British. Waiting "on line" is an NYC regional saying. Also "washroom" isn't exclusively Canadian, it is commonly used in Chicago as well.

This was too funny to watch! You guys looked like you had so much fun. I think the difference in accent isn't that strong because here in Canada we get so much American media 27/7, so we can't help but get used to their accents and sometimes say things like our neighbours to the south. But in the states, they don't get that much Canadian stuff so they are less familiar with it. I lived abroad for a while and I always explained to people that Canadian culture is half way between American and Canadian! 🇨🇦

Aww how fun!! I was cracking up at “been” 😂 Also “buggy” for shopping cart is super common in the south (I refuse to say it though lol). Another weird southern thing: “jimmie clip” instead of paper clip!

@scarlettethefieryphoenix925

I've heard "jim" clip. I guess because we use the word "jimmy" for rigging something. Lol like "jimmy it up."

We read individual words differently but when we use them in a sentence the can sound a bit different. "Been" is a good one. Most Canadians say "bin" but sometimes you'll hear "bean" pronunciation. Older generation tends to use the later

The thing with "caught" is that some people say it where you can hear the separate vowels and some people merge the vowels so that it sounds the exact same as "cot". It is similar to how some people say Don and dawn differently and some people say them the same way.

*Shopping with a "Buggy" is also done in Lower Alabama. Since Grandma comes from an English family, I do draw water from the Spigot. In my family, The Spigot is usually outside and the Faucet is in a building. Spigot is probably a Middle English word, from the Latin "Spicum" or "Spica". "Spica" was both Latin and Old English*

This was such a fun video to watch! I enjoy both of your channels a lot. Whoever says they miss the old youtube they should watch you both.

None of words are silly because I have heard them pronounced differently by different groups. Since moving near New Orleans for example I hear water as waw-daw. Also many people in the Southern US say buggy instead of shopping cart.

For me who I am not an English speaker, I find that Canadians pronounce more vocally.

Also: aluminium, zed, trainers (running shoes) shopping trolley, queue, pop

Me wid the Georgia version of the American accent 😂

Also when you said ”i think thats british” ive never heard anyone say that😂😂

On the subject of carts at 17:38, we call them "trolleys" not "carts" in England. 😁😉

So the Canadian accent changes by region. Like one of the more distinct accents in Canada in the Newfoundlander accent of the 'Newfie" accent. There is also a 'prairies' accent which you might hear in Manitoba and Saskatchewan that has a unique Canadian twang to it. The best example I can come up with is the song "out for a rip" by the group called shark tank. There is also the french Canadian accent of course which you find in Quebec and parts of Ontario. (Canadian's who's mother tongue is Quebecois speaking English wish a unique french Canadian accent) Mike Myers wrote a book called "Canada" for the 150th anniversary of our counties confederation. Its really well written btw. But it has a chapter explaining the Canadian accent and he has some great insights into the differences between the Canadian and american accents since he grew up in Saskatchewan but has lived most of his adult life in the us. I'm sure there are more but those are the ones I can think of off the top of my head.

I am also from near Toronto!! I grew up calling the remote control a "flipper" to flip through the channels

I'm also from the Toronto area and I've been told by many other Canadians (from Calgary, Vancouver, Newfoundland) that I have a "Toronto" accent but I've never been able to pinpoint what characterizes it. When I hear Natasha speak she sounds normal but as soon as Rebecca starts talking I can immediately tell she's from Toronto. Gaah what is it??! Are the vowels more defined? The consonants?

@kayflip2233

I'm from New York and can hear the Canadian accent pretty clearly. It is characterized by long vowels, clipped and abrupt words and the Canadian raising.

I'm from southern Maine but I sound quite Canadian, especially in words with the letters "ar" together, I also kinda say "oatside" instead of "owtside" when I say "outside". I also say "bag" like Rebecca edit: the word "caught" is part of a sound change in American English, certain parts (mostly in New England and eastern Pennsylvania) of the U.S. stopped saying "caught" and "cot" differently, and have merged those two vowel sounds. I thought that may be interesting to some people.

A few things as I’ve looked into his stuff in the past. For example on one, “writer” vs “rider” is seeing if the person has whats known as “Canadian Raising,” but is not exclusive to Canada. It is also in parts of the use (particularly parts of the northeast) and especially in pittsburgh I think. Writer is a slightly raised vowel sound verses rider. Its becoming progressively more common in America. So it can vary not only by region but also age.

Too Much Tash where I think the “pencil crayon” comes from is on our packages, such as crayola, they have to write english and french. So in small letters they have “couloured” then in big letters they have “pencils” then underneath they have the french “crayons” then in little letters “de couleur.” So when you look at the packages they say “pencil crayons” in large letters, and kids just look at the large letters. So it got ingrained in our heads ever since we’ve had to have everything bilingual. Also tuque is Canadian beanie is american. Some may have some american influence but it’s touque. I spelled it two different ways and both are correct, just to confuse you. If you wanna be fancy a “napkin” is a “serviette…” and “napkin” in those cases is something else… but thats what my great grandma, who’s still around, still calls them all the time. So maybe it’s older but I picture it as fine dining. She uses it normally even for little paper napkins/serviettes.

At least in my experience, the only term for a shopping cart in the UK is a trolley. I had a weird experience in London where I was as a Tesco trying to explain that I didn’t know where the carts were and wanted to find them. The lady there had no idea what I was saying - even when I said buggy. 😅 There’s a lot of weird terms in my family because one part is Mennonite from the Reading/Lancaster area of PA. My grandma says “Checkings account”, “Walmark” and describes coloring in a coloring book as “cranning” (as in “crayon”).

The US accent you are thinking of is the one they promote most on TV and movies but there are many distinct accents here. I have mistaken some people from New Orleans as Caribbean.

I feel, both of you might be English teachers that's why your words and pronunciations are very clear.

I say buggy and I’m from Louisiana!! Lol... and I had 50 people in my graduating class... and we wore uniforms. Public school too

You forgot the most famous one. About. Some Canadians pronounce about aboot.

I'm from Toronto, and pronounce 'been' as 'bin'

I love how you said caught differently but didn't notice

for clarification, Tash said /kôt/ and Rebecca said /kät/ (I'm from Delaware though and I say /kät/)

Interesting! Born and raised in Toronto and I say most of my words like Rebecca, but not "been"

So fun! I learned quite a bit as well!]

Southerners use the term buggy! It’s also more common to say PEE-cahn (that’s as phonetic as I can think to spell it). This video cracked me up.

People in the Southern U.S. call a shopping cart a buggy...just like the British, maybe? They also call sodas "Cokes" in the South.

In my Vlogs I used to speak in American Accent but for me I am a filipino. I lived in the Philippines. But last 2011, I went to Canada before.

Thanks a lot, your video helped me with my "phonetic project about Canadian&American English "🥰

Buggy is definitely a southern USA term! I’m from Alabama 😁

Wine in a box in Australia is called Cask Wine or "Goon" as a slang term. Aussie's have some beauty slang. And carbonated drinks are soft drink... and the place to pee is the toilet (we are blunt here). Tap too in a sink. We have best before dates for non perishables and expiry dates for foods that can poison you (lol). Bottle shop for the alcohol shop or the bottle-oh. Zed... definitely Zed Backpack or school bag Napkin for linen, serviette for paper. We have primary school kinder to 6 and then high school for 7-12. Nearly every school has uniforms. Aussie's are a weird bunch.... other side of the world thing I guess.

Idk how I never knew you were from Pa! I live on the other side of the state but I love that Pa has its own language. ❤️

Canada does have middle school it's mostly just for public schools

You have to come to the South - we pronounce things so differently. Shopping cart is a buggy. All sodas, no matter what brand, are cokes. And many words do have that Southern drawl to them. And so many accents/pronunciations vary by state. So funny to watch this.

I grew up in Massachusetts, and we call a shopping cart a "carriage" LOL I don't know why XD
