Here's the funny thing about the two of them. I know both accents from Yorkshire and Lancashire are distinctly strong compared to the RP accents, but when they were providing examples of words and sentences Loren had somewhat of a pulled-out accent but Braidley's accent sounded reserved. But when they started conversing with each other during the instructions on making tea, Braidley's accent came out stronger than Loren's.

Strange, I've always lived in Lancashire, and although my accent is, unsurprisingly, mostly similar to the lad from Lancashire, I pronounce some words more similar to those of the lass from Yorkshire - maybe it's because I've always lived in East Lancashire right near Yorkshire.

Moreover, the video you shared is very useful, though, there's a misconception regarding the way of speaking. On the one hand, English has got many accents, so it's not appropriate to affirm that there is a correct one. On the other hand, even non-native speakers can be very proficient when they speak their second language. Proficiency isn't necessarily linked to native speakers and this happens in every single country/language since there are people who really care about the way they speak and there are others who don't. Therefore, the accent you like is OK as long as you make the effort to improve your level every time you have the chance. Kind regards from Colombia.

In fact historically many regions didn't get along because of their diversity in spoken language, culture, and resultant rivalry that arose from those differences.

I lived and went to school in Hull, Yorkshire for 6 years from 81 to 87. I have loads of friends from both Yorkshire and Lancashire. Never really heard or saw much difference.

My grandad was the last person I know who could still use it, although my English teacher used to write poetry in the Lancashire dialect.

I always put in tea bag and sugar in together first, then pour over boiling water (has to be boiling!). A reputable brand of tea will only need about 15 seconds steep/ brew time and pour the milk over the tea bag before removing the tea bag. This is how I do it anyway. Remember, the quality of the water is crucial also. I find softer water makes a better cuppa than hard water.

Listening to the gentleman reminds me of my Grandma who was from Wigan.

I used to live in Middlesbrough, near Redcar. I did grow to really like the accent. But that two-syllable thing they do in words like "school" cracks me up.

I'm from Lancashire, but have also lived in Yorkshire. I think the latter has more of interest, but Lancashire as a county, used to be much larger and encompass Manchester & Liverpool up until about 1974 when it was divided up, administratively speaking . There would be much more variation of accents if those two cities were still included, as they have their own sounds completely. There are still clear variations from town to town. Bolton, Blackburn, Burnley & Wigan in the centre, north & east of Lancs tend to have a stronger accent. Whereas, Preston, Blackpool, Lancaster more to the north & west are softer. In the south & west you hear Liverpudlian mixing in.

Wow, how different are the accents......quite different from Anna's as well....

Now, this is quite amazing, I don't know if it's just me, but I actually think I can hear that the Lancashire accent has links to Norwegian language, while the Yorkshire accent sounds more like being influenced by Danish tongue! Being a Norwegian myself (pardon my English) I'd luv to know if other Scandinavians (Norwegian, Danish, Swedish) have similar, or different, impressions. Due to earlier Danish linguistic influence in England, I'd find it especially interesting to see some Danish comments to it. :) FYI: Current Norwegian and Danish (and Swedish) written languages are rather similar. Hence often referred to, rightfully or not, as a common Scandinavian language. But differences, basically in pronunciations and intonations, tend to make the spoken versions rather different (btw, we've got two official written languages in Norway, and I'm referring to our so called 'bokmål' - Eng: 'book tongue'. It's our most commonly used written language. Derivated from Danish, as one result of our past political unity with Denmark. Hence no big wonder current written Norwegian and Danish are similar. Our so called 'nynorsk' - Eng: 'new Norwegian' - is another story. It differs more from Danish, but I won't go in details here. It's a rather complex matter. I'm afraid it'd become a somewhat long 'comment', more confusing than clarifying...) I'd think the differences between Norwegian and Danish languages were even more distinct in ancient times. Even if I'm not an expert on old Norse tongue, or modern Scandinavian languages, for that sake, I happen to know that old Norse tongue can be divided into *at least* two branches. The western old Norse tongue (Norwegian) and the eastern old Norse tongue (Danish, Swedish). I also happen to know that settlements of Norwegian immigrants were quite significant in parts of Ireland, Scotland and along the northwestern coast of England some 1000+ years ago. Which can still be seen in quite a few Norse-influenced names in for instance Wirral, Merseyside and Lancashire. Those were the days of the so called Danelagen, when Danish influence were significant in other parts of England. Including Yorkshire, if I'm not mistaken (google is my friend here, 'Danelagen' is a good search word...) The funny thing though, to me personally, speaking current Norwegian language with a northern accent, I probably pronounce English words and sentences more like Braidley from Lancashire than any other English accents I know of, including the nice Yorkshire accent. And it's *not* me intentionally trying to copy Lancashire accent. It just turns out that way. Quite automatically. I wonder if a Dane would say the straight opposite? Would she/ he speak English more like Loren from Redcar, Yorkshire? And would a Dane think the Yorkshire accent sounds Danish-influenced? Or is it just me, hearing some «influence» that just doesn't exist? Like I've mentioned for starters, I'd luv to know if there are any fellow Scandiavians having made any similar reflections after watching this excellent video! :) PS. Not sure if I ought to mention this, it's clearly not a linguistic matter, but when making a cup of tea, which I tend to do whenever I'm occupied by something having to do with Britain - like watching this video, I'll probably have a nice cupper as soon as I've finished this :) - I even squeeze the teabags like Mr. Wilson from Lancashire points out one should! I defo agree it's important, as I think the tea gets significantly better that way. Kinda uncanny, aye? ;)

Correction: Looks like I put it a bit misleading when it comes to current official languages in Norway: It's correct that we have two official languages, but 'bokmål' (Eng: 'book tongue', which is derivated from Danish) and 'nynorsk' (Eng: 'new Norwegian', based on Norwegian dialects) are more like two official versions of the same language. The other official *language* is Sami, which is being used by the Sami people. It's a very different language, belonging to another language group than Norwegian. I don't find it likely Sami language was spoken by any of the Norse immigrants in Britain 1000+ years ago. Hopefully I've cleared up any eventual confusion on the subject now...

Lauren was right about heat rising because heat rises then cools which dumps rain on places like Lancashire and then there is less rain on the “leeward” side which is drier

Aye, spot on there. It's always soaking here in East Lancs. Good old Pennines trapping the damp in. It's like living in a duck pond 😅

Er ner! Her accent is the Northumbrian version of Yorkshire, rather than the West Riding type heard in Leeds or Barnsley, for instance.

The Lancashire accent sounds a bit closer to RP than the Yorkshire accent. As a non native speaker I find it easier to follow.

@Chris Fosdyke Well Manchester is Lancashire but the accents around there definitely aren't proper Lancs. I'm from Blackburn myself which is proper Lancs.

It depends where you come from in Lancashire. There is a divergence between the accent in the Pennine Mill towns and Greater Manchester. As my father would say, I'm from the right side of the Border, but her accent sounded more familiar to me.

My mom is from Lancashire but moved when she was 12, over 50 years ago. I grew up in Canada, but gadang, I just realized she taught me the Lancashire way of making a tea when I was little! 😊 So cool to see where that comes from! PS Now I know where that sexy Arctic Monkeys accent comes from - Yorkshire! ♥️

Her accent is closer to the East Yorkshire variant which is why there are the wide vowel sounds like "eerr nerr!" (oh no!) but most of Yorkshire dialect doesn't have this feature, in my experience.

AND Jarvis Cocker? Or even sports stars like Geoffrey Boycott or Michael Vaughan!!! I guess this girl is from Redcar, which let's face it is barely Yorkshire anyway (and she seems to think Darlington is in Yorkshire)!!! Love the accent she has, but you need someone more from the centre of Yorkshire, not on the edges.

Being a Midwesterner over in the states, this leaves me so confused in terms of faking British accents. Like, I love both accents, but I listen to myself faking it, and I realize how different words I've heard in different British accents have resulted in the fake one being just some weird mess of an amalgam of them.

I'm from Hull sorry ull east Yorkshire and I tell you what both were wrong on tea making You get a teapot warm it up with hot water add tea leaves pour water in teapot let it steep for 5 mins. Then add a splash of milk according to taste then with a tea strainer pour the tea into the mug. I've yet to visit Lancaster but I'll say one thing regarding the last battle you won. You were lucky we had an off day.

Me encantaaaaaa!!!! Lauren
