In some areas of the UK your accent can dictate what strangers think of you before they even know you. eg. On hearing a West Country, Geordie or Brummie accent people might wrongly assume you're thick. With a Scouse accent the assumption is that you're not trustworthy and always trying to scam someone. A general Scottish accent gives someone credibility which hasn't been earned yet and Black Country people are all assumed to be comedians. There's something calming and direct with a Manchester accent that you don't get elsewhere. Absolutely no airs and graces. It's comparatively easy for strangers to understand and it's warm and friendly just like the majority of people from that area! ps. Please don't think I'm biased as I don't have a Mancunian accent.

Even then, I'm from California and my family was originally from Texas/Oklahoma. I now live in in the Midwest and even though I have a typical "american" accent, which i think the influence of California culture on media played a significant role in establishing it as "standard", there are some distinct differences I've noted. Specifically: 1. I tend to run my words together and drop the distinct pronunciation of vowels and syllables. For example, I've met two women named Elaine. (Forgive how i butcher the pronunciation here) One is from California and one is from Michigan. The California pronounces her name "uh-laine", de-emphasizing the E sound (which is how i pronounce it) and the one from Michigan pronounces her name "E-laine" with a strong E sound. Similarly, in Michigan there is a town named "Charlotte" which, in Michigan, they pronounce "Shar-lot" and I pronounce "Sharlet". 2. There is an over-pronunciation of vowel sounds in the northern mid-west states and a substitution of the "D" sound for "Th" in a word. Typically called, at least in Michigan, the "Yuper Accent" (for Upper Peninsula) a saying like, "Oh, Hey there!" would sound like "OOh, hey dere!". Kinda hard to write, but the O sound is over emphasized and the H of "hey" is de-emphasized. I've heard similar accents in Minnesota, North Dakota, and Wisconsin.

Most of them on Corrie ain’t even Mancs or have a manc accent tbh Kevin Webster and his daughter are the closest and their both from salford the rest are either posh or Yorkshire ways

i’m american (texan specifically) and ive been spending the past few days around a mancunian. i love his accent.

Very nice video. I am in the U.S. but I know someone whom I talk to everyday who is a native of Manchester. Many of these accents are spot on. Well done video.

thank you for uploading this sound video! I love Manchester

Cora is such a cutie-pie! And her accent is so so nice! I love it!

Just from watching The Challenge on MTV, I am now able to distinguish some British accents from one another 😂😂 The two most distinct that I’ve heard on the show are the Manchester and the Newcastle accent

This is great, I’m trying to get my accent back as my accent now sounds weird since I’m in nz (it sounds a little British and a little kiwi) this is really helping with it

Just stumbled upon this entire series because of a convo I had a little while back. One of my friends was talking about "the British accent." I argued that there is no single British accent, just like there isn't just one single "American accent." People in Northern California - where we both live - speak differently than those from Southern California. And it's fairly easy to tell someone from Texas from someone from Alabama from someone from the Midwest US, New York, New England, etc, etc, etc. Of course, he understood that in an instant. But I sense that he still thinks there is only one British accent. Time to send him these videos!

Your friend is a bit silly. We've been speaking English on this island for much, much, much longer than you have. If the US has developed accents since the 1700s, how does he think the place the language originated from hasn't? You need smarter friends.

I’m a Mancunian but I’m still watching this because I wanna compare our accent to the proper British accent

I live down South and where I work if there’s a problem with anything to do with IT we have to call the IT Service Desk. Pretty sure they’re based somewhere in Manchester or nearby. Every time I call them they’re like, “Hello this the IT service desk *name* speaking how can I help?” And I’ve literally already melted the second they said IT. I don’t know what it is about the accent but it’s just beautiful and the fact that every person I’ve ever spoken to with the same accent has always been so nice and friendly (and the guys at the IT Service Desk are so helpful too) it just adds to the attraction. Ugh.

Each of your videos about British accent are excellent, thank you very much Anna for this work.

She does sound like there's some Yorkshire there but it's not Leeds at all. The way she said "goat" was weird, with more of an "uh" sound whereas Leeds is an "ohh" sound.

The way she says “Suuurah” Definitely from Bolton not Manchester 😂

Bolton is very different to Manchester/ Salford accent.

Since I saw Life on Mars I simply love this accent ... it feels like a complete different language and since I am a native German I had big trouble understanding much without subs turned on ... still love it!

Thanks im from manchester but have gradually learned a borough accent, this actuslly helped me

This sounds very much more north Lancashire than Manchester, although I see the two overlap. I haven't met anyone who speaks like that outside of Wigan, Darwen, Colne etc. Mancs do not say Goort for Goat.

We often top and tail "Hanging". So we say, it's 'angin'. Nice video. Sounds like home there were tinges of Halifax or something closer to a Yorkshire accent in the stretch at the end.

This is marvelous!!! Thank you!!! Greetings from Mexico!!!!! 👋🏼

Oh my god, what is this? What have I stumbled across on internet, you are Queens! This is amazing, this is so well done, you are logical and clear and pedagogical and informative and all I want to do now is learn to speak Mancunian or at least travel there to hear people speaking with such art and grace like Cora and friends. Thank you for this. I'm learning so much.

Thanks, really fun series. I've wondered how the 18th Century British English accent evolved into the American English accent in those colonies. When I hear the lovely long-ahh discussion here 2:38 I hear a major difference pointing to the fundamental American accent. Coincidence?

@onlytruerose1333

3 жыл бұрын

I think the way that Americans generally pronounce 'a' is the same way that the Southern Irish pronounce it, as in 'last' or 'past'. Also the Irish say the word 'sure' so much in everyday life as in 'Sure, amn't I doing it, now!' The Americans say 'sure' a lot in their everyday life too. So many Irish went to America so maybe that was their contribution to the general American accent. I like to think so. I had a lot of ancestors that went from Ireland. I was born in Ireland and mainly brought up in Lancashire, so I have the benefit of both places which are lovely.

Excellent video !!! Cora = Gorgeous !!!

You prepare the presentation really great.

I just went through a pronunciation course and the very same reading was used to check our pronunciation at the beginning and the end of the course. Thank you! Thank you! From the very South of Mexico i. e. Acapulco.

That's exactly my cup of tea! I loved so much Frank Gallagher's accent in Shameless. Please let me know if his accent looks authentic as my ear can't make a difference, if any.
