Getting interviewed on the beach was the highlight of my day! Great fun 😊 so glad Suffolk accent was in there… big up East Anglia crew

[@EasyEnglishVideos]

Awww thanks for writing in! You made our video so great! Brilliant answers and impressions, of our best interviewees for sure! 🤩 Really nice to bump into you 🙌

[@raedonaldson]

There are more than 12 accents in Britain. And the Republic of Ireland doesn't belong in a survey of British accents.

[@MiloManning05]

[@tunguyenuc7287]

This challenge is hard and interesting to me At school, I learn the British accent and a liite bit of Irish accent. The easiest accent I can recognize is the Irish. I'm so happy to hear all 12 accents form the British Isles. They sound same, right?😆

[@EasyEnglishVideos]

Thanks for watching, we hope you find it useful. The Scottish and Liverpool would be the next ones to focus on as they are quite specific. But some are weirdly similar, even though they are the opposite ends of the country (west country & east)

[@bandelier100]

It is interesting listening to the different accents and seeing these people figure out where the reader is from. Here in the US we have the same thing.

[@FarellfawwazFarell]

What a lovely education video..thanks a lot miss Naila ❤

[@yuliyavasilyeva5424]

It's very interesting video, 👍😁thanks a lot!!!

[@susannortham11.11]

This American got 11/12. Messed up on the Welsh accent. Fun stuff❣

[@Mr3213215]

Very warm inpressions. Thanks a lot.

[@EasyEnglishVideos]

Thanks for your support 🙌

[@cz2301]

My hearing impairment is so bad that i cant even understand my own recorded voice lol nice video tho

[@AngelineHargreaves]

12 out of 12 💪

[@EasyEnglishVideos]

Good job mum!

[@AnnaAnna-uc2ff]

THanks.

[@EasyEnglishVideos]

Thanks for your support Anna! How many did you get correct?

[@ControlledCha0s]

Here's to hoping there will be more episodes on British accents like this one 🤞 ; awesome vid, Mitch, old mate! Sadly, I'm neither a native speaker, nor have I had enough exposure to most British accents to be able to pick them out like some of the interviewees here. Southern Irish, Scottish and London are pretty much the most I can do 🤭 , and they also happen to be among my favorites out of all English accents, but listening to the others in this one made me realize I _love_ them, too! 👍😎👍 Big hug from the land of rompope, mate! 😁😋 🇬🇧🇲🇽

[@EasyEnglishVideos]

Thanks for watching 🙌 Easy English will be on tour soon and we intend to show more from the northern parts of England, so hopefully some diverse accents for you.

[@frankandreaswenzel]

Can you please do this again when I'm in Brighton later this year? It's my favourite thing to do as well. I ... could offer German and Swiss accents/dialects in return.

[@listabambino]

Me? Zero straight. I’m from Italy, I hear just little differences most of the times

[@EasyEnglishVideos]

No worries... at least you can probably understand them all then?

[@listabambino]

@@EasyEnglishVideos most of it, that was really interesting. I was thinking how easy it’d be for me to guess Italian accents which have more or less the same varieties as UK / Ireland, that’s why getting a C2 certificate seems a little ridiculous if it’s defined as “native level”. There’s no way one can ever get a true native level if you’re not native to start with, your video proves that

[@jaskatpon1]

Coming from India, for some reason I don’t know why but I understand accents from southern England like midlands, London or Brighton very well. But northern English, Scottish and Irish accents simply flies over my head! 😂 Pretty good topic. I also enjoyed guessing the accents. 👍🏾

[@hirsch4155]

I got them all except for Welsh. I’m Canadian and have only spent a few days of my life in the UK. Thanks, British TV. 😊 Yorkshire was a breeze especially because my mom and I used to watch Heartbeat a lot when it was shown here.

[@Ascalafo]

I loved this, fucking hell lol! so interesting!!!

[@EasyEnglishVideos]

Ahh thanks David! Glad you enjoyed, how many did you get?

[@martinyfelix]

But whatever happened to Sarah Perry?! 🤣 I can only distinguish the Irish accents and the Scottish one.

[@EasyEnglishVideos]

😂😂😂😂😂 This is my favourite comment

[@not_on]

I guessed Southern Irish, Yorkshire and Scottish correctly.

[@timothysommerladenneagram]

We need more Welsh accents, please 😊! I don't know which part of Wales that was from.

[@EasyEnglishVideos]

Do you know we have an Easy Welsh?

[@ltmcolen]

There must be a good reason why people are able to guess where someone is from based on dialect. Being Belgian, English is my third language and just now I'm beginning to be able to differentiate between British accents. It takes time to be exposed to various dialects. Peaky Blinders was a good way to learn Brummie for example...

[@EasyEnglishVideos]

Thanks for your comment Jeroen 🙌 I think you're right. Because of series like Peaky Blinders, it give massive exposure to the other regions of the British Isles, beyond London and the RP dialect. I would love to recommend "This is England" to you, both the Movie and then the follow-up series.

[@ltmcolen]

@@EasyEnglishVideos Thank you, I will check it out!

[@EasyEnglishVideos]

@@ltmcolen Please let us know what you think of it! It's one of my favourite English productions

[@ltmcolen]

@@EasyEnglishVideos It's a rather infatuating film. It makes me feel nostalgic towards a region that looks dilapidated, an era which feels anachronistic and an emotional connection with the protagonists because of the recognizability.

[@alexysq2660]

I got like 9 or 10 of them correct actually 😁...! But then of course, as a life-long Londoner, i really do reckon i can't be too bloody proud of myself; should've done quite a bit better than that, in'nit 😆 ...?! *~*Easy English*:* 💖

[@EasyEnglishVideos]

😂 to be fair, the East and West Country were pretty hard to separate. And others weren’t very strong, like the Welsh and South East

[@alexysq2660]

@@EasyEnglishVideos Well tbh, i'd got both the East and West Country ones right; though the Welsh did throw me off, as it hadn't really struck me as being particularly close to how i tend generally to hear those typically sounding. Also, the 'Brummie' accent threw me - which did come as a bit of a surprise to me that it should do so. You sincerely are most kind and gracious in your responses, i've simply got to say 😊; cheers, thanks very much ! ~❤💖

[@alexysq2660]

*@*EasyEnglishVideos** ...❤💖❤...!!

[@EasyEnglishVideos]

Oh good job! Those are the two I struggle with. tbh... the Brummie and Welsh are quite subtle, I wanted the quiz to be a bit more difficult for the interviewees. Thanks for watching 🙌

[@mariannereuter]

Wow, that was hard! I only recognized Northern Irish and Scottish. 🤭 How could anyone ever distinguish all those accents ... Btw. where does "te-rah" come from? Is it an abbreviation from some longer word? I'm curious. 😁

[@EasyEnglishVideos]

We’ll done 🙌 I love a Northern Irish accent! Funnily enough, we just discussed te-ra in our latest podcast, out on Monday 😉😆

[@mariannereuter]

@@EasyEnglishVideos Ha, you seem to know your listeners' questions before we even ask them! 😀I'll tune in for sure.

[@EasyEnglishVideos]

@@mariannereuter We love our community... hope you enjoy the podcast !

[@islamadam8502]

Thanks for the video 👍 I love the British accents and I always laugh at this clip from Hot Fuzz: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fqSQo5qsoLeZrcU

[@EasyEnglishVideos]

I LOOOOVE Hot Fuzz! Great example of multiple West Country accents 🙌

[@EasyEnglishVideos]

How many did you get correct in this episode? Did you get the west Country one?

[@islamadam8502]

@Easy English Actually I didn't succeed in any 😥 I could understand what they say but didn't know which is where.

[@EasyEnglishVideos]

No worries 😁 I hope you can take away that you will be able to travel around all of the British Isles and will probably be able to understand everyone 😁

[@davidefacchinetti2084]

I got the Welsh, Scottish, London and Irish accents right. Everything else🤷🤷

[@EasyEnglishVideos]

Pretty good 🙌 could you tell the difference between Northern and Republic of Ireland?

[@teviottilehurst]

Southern Irish is not a British accent.

[@MrGreenfive]

I wish they wouldn’t call it a British accent…

[@IRISHBOIIABLE]

Get that Irish accent out of the video

[@magspies]

"British Isles" is a colonial term and SO disrespectful to use. That you include 'southern Irish' in a video of British accents is mind-blogging given the horrific history...

[@klimtkahlo]

Thanks for teaching us about the British Isles. I imagine those are regions. I thought all I had to do is say if it was Scottish or welsh or Irish or British! I had no clue on any of them! This is when my pretentiousness of knowing English is smashed to the ground! 😄🫣 I did get Scottish! I was like: that is the most beautiful accent ever so must be Scottish! So yes! Freedom!!! 😂😂😂

[@EasyEnglishVideos]

Hahahaha the sound of freedom 😆😆 well done on getting Scottish. Hilariously, there are as many Scottish accents as there are English, I would struggle to identify them all 😅
