@@christianstainazfischer Ah right forgot that there was lots of that happening. But still over time that "accent" becomes known as the American accent, which would have been influenced by other accents. The reason why it sounds so normal and clean to you is probably because you're very used to the sound of that English. Perhaps via an abundance of TV and other media or you just grew up there. The reason why practically all English speakers can understand the standard American accent (accent-less to you) is because of their TV and media being everywhere across the globe and is often their first interaction with English

Transcription of Kevin's answers: 1. My name's Kevin Patterson and I'm a guide on the River Tweed, like. We're standing here down in the Borders. We're just outside Melrose, which is a famous town. Over the back of us, here, we've got the Eildons, one of the most famous landmarks of the Borders. It's three hills, and the myth is that Merlin the magician split one hill into three, and it left the two hills at the back of us which you can see. The weather's never good... They always say, in the Borders, if the mist's on the Eildon's we never get the good weather and, as you can see today, there's no sunshine It's a typical Scottish Borders day! 2. Tweed Guides, that's just been set up...it's about in its third year now, like. And we bring people over, from all walks of life, and we bring them fishing anywhere they want to go. Um...we use the Tweed, we use all the tributaries of the Tweed, and we just want to get people thegither to have fun and enjoy fishing...together. 3, I reckon, um...to start enjoying fly-fishing if... As long as you're happy just to go out, enjoy the scenery and take in just what all happens with it, like. You can enjoy it in a day -- two days is plenty time as long as you enjoy it, like. It's very important that you put it... put it totally out your mind about catching and just enjoy the casting and enjoy the scenery around you. 4. Well, a day like today we'd be looking for a spring salmon, a late-running spring salmon. The early salmon will just be starting to come up now, which we call the summer salmon. We've got the grilse and, uh, there'll be a few sea trout beginning to come forward. This a good time of the year, like, and it's just the start of the summer fishing. The spring fishing's just coming to an end. He's doing very well at the moment, actually, He just needs to slow things down just a little bit, um, he just wants to take his time on his forward cast. We'll have him... By the end of the morning, we'll have him... All that'll be sorted out, like. But the secret is...is give the people their space. Let them fish, let them get in the river, let them enjoy the fishing -- let them feel the rods. Don't be on their case all day, like. I can soon sort it out, it just takes five minutes. There's a perfect example. Only been fishing for the last 20 minutes and look at that -- perfect anchor point, perfect looping across the river. 6. Melrose Abbey -- just across... we can't quite see it from here, but it's just through the trees on the other side there, like. You can actually just see the main tower. Just through the trees, you can just see... 7. [About the sheep crap.] Aye, I know! You can see the top of Melrose... See the top of the Abbey there? ...See it just... there's kind of...just the bit sticking up. That's Melrose Abbey, like. 8. It's... Well, one of the big points of that is, uh, Robert the Bruce's heart's buried there. ... Yeah, they brought it back after he died, and they buried his heart in the Abbey, like. And they actually dug it up, uh, a few years back, and tried to put a DNA test... Yeah, to see what was what with it, like. And then it was all put back in again. But the monks of Melrose are very famous, and they brewed the famous mead that came out the Melrose Abbey, like. The ground we're standing on at the moment was actually...was all owned by the monks. All this flat plain you see in front of you, this was all owned by the monks of Melrose, like -- and they farmed this, like. There's actually a wall runs from the bottom at the river there, comes right up here. You cannae see it but it is there. It goes right round that corner and right back up to the Abbey, like. And that was their boundary. But uh, it's a very famous, and one of the oldest abbeys that there is in Scotland, like. 9. Yeah, it's a big Roman area, like. Newstead, which was one of the biggest and earliest settlements of the Romans, is just in the village behind us. Again, we can't quite see it for the trees and the stuff that's there. But the Romans settled here. And they had a fort on the top of the hill, just on the top of that hill there, like. And there's a lot of people come for this area to look at the.. the Roman fort and all the different stuff, like. 10. Yeah, there's a lot of bits and pieces. Yeah, it's very, very steeped in history, the Roman history, this area, like. Uh, when there was just a small settlement in Newstead, like. It goes back and all -- there are books and all the writing-up, and you can look back on the history, and it's always mentioned, Newstead. [About looking it up.]...Oh, definitely, like. Aye. (Kevin's using Standard English vocabulary, "little" instead of "wee" etc, and modifying some pronunciation towards SE, to be more comprehensible to foreigners. He uses one or two structures characteristic of Scots English (eg "over the back of us": "out your mind" vs of "out of your mind" and "get the good weather" vs "get good weather"). Most Scots don't realise our syntax is a bit different from Standard English even when we're using all SE vocabulary.)

Everyone's saying how Scottish he sounds, but I'm fascinated by how English he sounds. I grew up in Newcastle, which is the northernmost big city in England (and 70 miles south of Melrose) - and it's really interesting how similar his accent is to mine - much more than even people from Edinburgh (who can sound a bit Geordie at times). Some of the traditional accents in rural Northumberland would be pretty much impossible to tell apart from his. Just shows that despite the political border being there for centuries, the cultural or linguistic boundary is still pretty vague.

With a courtesy smile and a thank you, I left him and resorted to a map of London that had much clearer information.

True. He probably speaks with more of a Scottish tounge.

Beautiful culture, I love learning other countries history and in that way become closer to them. I was able to understand him fluently and I’m proud of that.

The Canadian Standard Dialect's two points of difference from the American Standard Dialect (the one you are most likely to hear on the news, in the media, in movies, etc.) are both vowel changes. These slightly different vowels in words like "about" and "ice" are holdovers from Scottish roots. I'm Canadian too. I won't say that people in my area speak this way (maybe it's more of an East Coast thing?) but we still have those two types of vowels in common with Scots English.

Been there, spent a month in Newstead and Melrose. I even reached the top of the Eildon on a sunny day. Absolutely loved my staying. Wonderful place and wonderful people with awesome accents.

Oh my word! What a combination! A Scottish gentleman and a Southern American. I can't believe they could understand each other!

"there's no shunSHANE" lol i cant stop laughing

Both of their accents are great. I spent 3.5 years living in scotland and I find myself missing the accent now I've been back in england for six months, so I'm here after looking on youtube for some Scots to lull me to sleep tonight haha I've been missing Scotland more and more.

English is my second language and I managed to undertand the Scottish guy. This is a milestone to be proud of.

It's funny to see the mutual effort they have to see to understand each other :) Two equally diverse accents As a Brit, it's interesting to note that the Scottish man is the easier to understand :)

Two of my favourite accents speaking to eachother. Rare treat.

I'm from Ohio and I understood 90% of this, only when background noise came in or the mic was turned away did I lose him. I do a lot of Scottish research though and am getting very comfortable with the written form of Scots and the different dialects. He has a VERY clean accent compared to other Scots accents.

Funny how that works. Sometimes where the accent sound is placed in a word can really throw you off, and tends to make you have to really think to understand what is being said.

Good video! I love Scottish accents. Cheers from Clayton, NC!

It's funny how my brain has to really re-focus when switching back and forth between the two accents. I think all accents are interesting and tell us so much about regional histories and the lives of people, and I'm really glad when people document them.

Great interview and information from this lads

I'm an American & have been studying/listening to the Scottish accent (mainly Glaswegian as it's my favorite) for the last 2.5 years & I am proud to say I probably only missed about 6 words of what he said. I hope to be visiting Glasgow next year or the year after & cannot wait to get lost in the culture & the accents of course lol I hope I'll be able to understand nearly 98% of the people I speak to when I get there.

Wow - I think you're right.

Actually, the interviewer's accent (southern) is related to/ descended from Scottish & Irish, as the Scots-Irish (Irish people who temporarily lived in Scotland before coming to America) who came to the Appalacians are responsible for how people from TN, KY, and other southern states talk (especially strong dialects of the Appalachian Mountains). Before I knew this as a fact, I wondered about it, due to the older generations of my family from TN having such a strong dialect that I could barely understand them, and it sounded very much like Scottish to me - and sure enough, their dialect & accents are truly linked to Scottish & Irish.

I could just listen to him all day

I'm from Tennessee, and practically all of us are of Ulster Scots ancestry; consequently, our native "South Midland" U.S. Southern accent is actually heavily derived from various incarnations of Scottish and Irish accents. (Again, I'm talking about the "South Midland" accent, not the overblown "Virginia Plantation" U.S. Southern accent--like "Whah, Ahm jes' so happeh ta be heah"; very few people here actually speak like that--I'm talking more like Channing Tatum-meets-Matthew McConaughey with some Billy Bob Thornton sprinkled in.) Consequently, I have no trouble whatsoever understanding virtually every regional Scottish accent from Stranraer to Kirkwall. (And, yes, that includes the Glaswegian accent. ;^) ) Scottish accents are my favorites of all English language accents; they're pure music to my ears!

Where in TN? My aunt is from there and she says ye (like where ye going) and very hard R sound. Her grandma said to me, hand me that paper poke. And I almost lost it laughing. Turns out a poke is a word they still use in Scotland to refer to a paper bag. Same as what she was referring to.

+Inessa Sychyev I'm from Nashville; however, both my paternal and maternal relatives are from smaller towns and rural areas in the central part of the state (i.e., Smithville, McMinnville, and Livingston). Just like your aunt, my kin say "ye" for "you." They also say a variant of "aye" for "yes" (they pronounce it more like "eye-ya") and "naw" for "no"-just to name a couple of examples. My kin also use a hard rhotic "R." By the way, my missus is from Erin, Tennessee. Guess what her ancestry is? ;^)
