@zak3744 Жыл бұрын
It's very interesting to hear both of the American fellows adamant that Simon is the most posh-sounding of the three of them. If you asked me, I'd say Simon is the least posh-sounding of them! Jackson's speech, to my British ear, evokes a kind of olden days Southern US vibe that is very much the idea of posh Southern gentlefolk, while Luke's accent definitely sounds very careful and well-spoken, even if I'm not familiar enough to know what the specific idea of "posh" would sound like in his particular variety of American English. With Simon on the other hand, as a fellow Brit the non-posh elements of his speech jump out immediately, particularly a lot of 'estuarised' sounds. I'd say the class inferences of his speech to me would be something like "well-educated individual, with middling-to-slightly-lower-than-middling prestige accent". I presume we naturally pick up on the nuances of that which we are familiar with, and the foreign tends to sound fancy! Much as in an intra-English context some Northerners can quite often classify any Southern accent (i.e. anyone with a trap-bath split) as automatically "posh", even if the particular Southern accent is one that other Southerners might say sounds like a chavvy yokel in class terms!

@francisdec1615 Жыл бұрын
The British accent was in principle "invented" in the 1770s to sound different from the rebellious Americans' accent. So while many US accents can sound refined, the British accent is kind of "inorganic", and in that respect it's the most posh of all.

As a vocalist it’s very interesting to watch this and think not only of the mouth and tongue placement but also the difference in where the voice resonates from. This is something we think a lot in singing and it seems like a big difference in Jackson doing Simon’s accent is actually where his voice is placed because Simon has such a soft and more breathy placement that sounds more towards the head than deep in the chest where Jackson naturally sits.
@gabbytriestomakethings Жыл бұрын
It was also interesting to note that you did the timbre and general voice quality after the ipa when usually if I’m mimicking a person I start with where it’s felt and then do the ipa because something about where it’s felt informs for me the mouth and tongue so it’s more intuitive than just learning by wrote. But that’s from a singer actor perspective not a linguist. It seems like the two approaches are different.

I think it's amazing how at 37:15, Roper tries pronouncing "possible" and I can't help hearing it as an Englishman saying "passable", even though the words coming before and after sounded perfectly American to me. It really speaks to how fine-tuned all the vowels in your native tongue really are, and how hard it is to adjust them to the right place when imitating an accent, especially if (like in this case) one of your own vowels is closer (but not identical). Even for Roper, who has made a KZbin career out of being very good at pronouncing English in different ways.

Me, a Tennessean listening to each of these accents, and thinking "yall have no idea how extended a diphthong can be" (Just teasing!). I think all of you did extremely well. What really impressed me, was that each of you did a great job (with fits and starts) of replicating each other's accents, but without it turning to mimicry. I would have immediately been trying to mimic each voice, without really trying to. So, while none of you really sounded like the other person, you all nailed their speach patters. Simon and Dr Crawford sounded the most alike, I think, because each have deeper, more resonant voices, but when Luke wasn't tripping over his vowels (he was presented with some difficult ones) he did great. Watching Simon get so amused was so much fun, I could tell all of you were enjoying the exercises, but Simon's joy stood out. This was a very short couple of hours, listening to three of my favorite linguists. I think you're all posh gents, and would love to see you do something similar again.

Simon, you are a really *excellent* accent mimic. I say this as someone who has a knack for accents myself, but you're better than me. I have a native General American accent (Educated East Coast variant of Midlands). The one tiny error I hear in your imitation of Jackson is that you tend to slightly overdo the nasalization on some of his nasalized consonents. To an American ear the result sounds just a touch parodic. The "transatlantic" softened rhoticity Luke noticed is a class marker - it's characteristic of upper-class dialects, especially on the East Coast. Fifty years ago that stratum of accents was much less rhotic, more resembling BRP of the time. Rhoticity has been infiltrating them from the Middle American dialect over my lifetime. In general Luke's accent has a rather upper-crust sound, which is something that tends to happen with people who have self-reconstructed their idiolect a lot. It's interesting that Jackson brought up fake accents on country radio. He's right - it's really obvious to an American with any dialect ear and it's *incredibly irritating*. I figured out years ago that it activates the evolved cheater-detection module in my head.

Off-topic I guess - but I had a thought today, and then thought of you, Simon. ‘Slang’ - as an Australian, slang is part of the daily lived experience here. And of course the British are equally famed for the use of slang. What do we know about the use of slang in Old English? Was it a thing? When did it become so prevalent in the English language (and by extension, I suppose, Australian and other colonial dialects with British roots)? Here it probably emerged as a way to be anti-establishment, to bond with others, for fun. I imagine it played a similar role in England when it emerged also? Regards, Mike Green.

At 23:25 so interesting to ponder the relationship between an actor capturing the speech of a known person and how caricature drawings function. Caricature drawings are successful if the artist has correctly identified what proportions of the subject's face deviate from average. Let's say the subject's eyes are a tiny bit closer together than average. Everyone who knows that person subconsciously knows it. Thus the artist can draw the eyes a tad closer together than average, or keep pushing them closer until they're actually touching! It doesn't matter; everyone who knows that person will say the drawing looks like the subject as long as the eyes are closer than average. I don't think this can work with accent and voice quality- the actor can't push things too far. This, then, is more like realistic portraiture, I reckon.

Just to join in on the phonetic hair-splitting, I think Jackson is making the /ou/ in 'no one' and the /ju/ in 'useless' too back and too rounded. Simon is saying something like [nəʏwʌn] and [jɨsləs]. Also that 'dn' sound in 'burden' - idk if there's a name for it but there's no tap, the tongue just holds against the alveolar ridge and transitions from /d/ to /n/ without releasing. The stop and release is actually coming from the back of the tongue on the back of the soft palate while the front of the tongue stays pressed against the alveolar position
