This never gets old...even though they both clearly and audibly pronounce "eleven."..in a normal accent favorable to the English language.

[@Salliana_Of_Suramar]

they just had to say it like Russians do..... this lift would just fall and hide somewhere frightened))))))) or in German)))))) historically the most coarse, rude and frightening accents....

I went on a trip this past weekend to Hilton Head, South Carolina. The rental car had an audio GPS so you could speak the destination where you wanted to go. Without exaggeration my boyfriend was able to tell her at least 15 different commands, and she recognized all of them. EVERY time I tried, she did not understand what I said. This happened at least 10 times. It reminded me so much of this video. I just started telling her “11“!!!

[@largol33t1]

What's funny is the GPS unit I got from my father spoke in an American accent so poorly (it was made in Germany!) that I couldn't stop laughing. This was too distracting so I fumbled through the accent settings to find whatever the hell I could understand best. I would try driving around while it gave me directions, switching the accent settings whenever I kept getting confused. Lo and behold, the Swiss-German accent worked best and I am NEITHER! I don't know why the hell it was the easiest to understand.

[@slowmo9642]

Where you from?

[@bwabbel]

@@largol33t1 i'm surprised that there was a swiss german accent option. maybe you understood that the best because we speak slowly and try to pronounce everything as clearly as possible xD

[@corinnamuller2897]

Greetings from Bavaria 😂

[@susanandjulian]

😂 I had a Garmin who pronounced anything that wasn't in English strangely. I went to the isle of Jersey and she told me to turn on pig knocks road. I thought what in the world??? Then I saw the street sign...pigneaux 😂

Here in New Zealand I was given a voice-activated Television to trial. It took the best part of two weeks to get it to shift to channel 10. My programme was finished, needless to say. Maybe it was the Scot in me (on my mum's side) but my reaction was much the same.

[@Leo93087]

I am an English teacher. One of my students struggled to learn the word "eleven." After I showed her this video, she learned the word for good

[@zereprotsenzerep652]

When i am depressed alone and lonely i always went back to see this video to eased my agony and made me laughed again what a good comedy.

[@drivesmecrazy1000]

These guys are hilarious 😂!! Strongest first episode of a comedy series I've seen.

[@inyobill]

We were being escorted through Frankfurt Airport by a Scottish lady (my wife is a bit disabled) last week on returning from America. When we were in the lift, I carefully ennunciated "eleven", in my best fake Scottish accent. She almost wet her undies.

[@KrystleLow]

Probably made her week! 🤣

[@ЕвгенияОнежская]

Similar story. My grandmother showed me this a few years ago. She was very passionate about Scotland, even though she’s never been there. She passed away a year ago. Decided to rewatch it to bring some memories)

[@ScottishDrumLessons]

Every time I get to page 11 in ANYTHING...I have to quote this. If the people around me don't understand what I just did, we stop and watch this video. Also, for an entire year when my son was eleven, I didn't use his first name. I just called him "ELEVEN!"

[@tequilacollins]

And prob for 11 months & 3 weeks, he would just roll his eyes. 😀

[@ScottishDrumLessons]

@@tequilacollins He actually LOVED it :-) My younger boy lis looking forward to his turn to be called it also

[@aninewforest]

I can't remember the last time I wept with laughter. I just heard of this video in a New York Times article which mentioned the difficulties of lipreading certain accents.

[@blazypika2]

Every Scottish comedy routine is required to contain 'OCH, YE COO!'

I decided to watch this with subtitles on and it just made it funnier, the automatic subtitles butcher it completely. Highly recommended to watch with subtitles 🤣🤣

[@winistan]

This is comedy gold. One for the Hall of Fame for sure !!

[@Nathalia_Martins]

The greatest thing also in this video is the fact that not even close captions is able to understand and struggles with the accent... 😅🤣😂🤣😅

[@marcelkuijper8240]

I'm suddenly reminded of the voice controlled software I tried to run on my Atari back in the 90's. That didn't work either. Imagine, trying to teach your computer how to do things by voice command, but first ... you need to get it to understand your command, how to make sense of what you're saying to it ... and then teach it what everything means. And then get it to recognize YOUR voice every time. It was just as frustrating as ELEVEN! My "Oh do whatever ya like!" came very close to "Take us anywhere, ya cow!"

[@JoyThiefTheBand]

I remember back in around '09, my Scottish grandpa trying to get his car to call his daughter (Linda), and every time he said "Call Linda" the car would pause for a second... Then say "Media" and start playing Rod Stewart. After about 10 goes of that with my grandpa getting increasingly angry at the car, he smacks the thing, picks up his phone and just calls her, all while vowing never to use voice recognition technology ever again, as they've clearly never heard a Scotsman before.

[@BellTroxel]

No matter how many times, this video makes me laugh out loud every single time! 😂😂

[@volcaniicash6485]

After fork handles, four candles, this is the best comedy sketch ever written.

[@Rebeccaannjarvis]

This is still funny also even the closed captions / subtitles don’t know the Scottish accent as they either miss out words or get them wrong

[@Thegdee]

Just the best sketch from this programme full stop. Brilliant writing and performance... 11...
