Learning Manchester Phrases and Accents with a Mancunian!

[@MissyASTB]

This was such a fun video to film!+!

[@albersantos8298]

Whaaaat? talking about football in Manchester and mentioned "empty stadium" instead of the historical Old Trafford?! I could see the bias ye! (I'm joking, the video is lovely)

[@Ammarkoka]

Misbah Heya! I'm from Heywood as well. 😀🔥👍🏻

[@vividh.x]

awn❤️yeahh😂loved it

[@DammsYT]

as a Mancunian this is great

[@zain3951]

I live in Preston which is close so yh

[@starsdestiny]

As another Manc love it! Billy picked up the accent so much whenever Misbah said something

[@icantsle3p]

this video was well mint 😁 i definitely add the that/her/me/you etc at the end of sentences "i'm going out me" "where you going you" etc we drop a lot of words because we're concise 😌

[@GeckoCityUK]

I hope you went out-out

[@kristinafoster7305]

Misbah, you’re so natural, spot on with all the phrases ❤️

[@MissyASTB]

Thanks Krissie!

[@tosiyamato8992]

People from Manchester seems to be fun people ❤️❤️

[@muddy_kyrie123yt8]

As a person that lives in south Manchester, these words are very new to me except for the classic “ ar kid” she’s from north ! Typically in the south it’s mixed with ldn slang/ manc , ask a manc from north ! Manchester is BIG and it keeps getting big !

[@jamielocke192]

Completely agree! I’m from Stockport and I’d say I have a Cheshire accent not a manc accent although I do say a couple of the manc phrases just with a more ‘proper’ pronunciation (no dropped letters)

[@elliemcmahon6538]

Im from Stockport but i have a very strong manny accent but some times i sound like im from cheshire 😂

[@nafeeskhan9109]

@jamielocke192 i think people from Stockport r more mancs then even mancunion

[@mikorara]

Mint is used to mean excellent in the States too. Wicked for good also. Brew means beer. Hey but it's fun to listen to all these different accents .

[@paultaylor7082]

This guy knows his languages, he speaks better English than most people born here. Misbah is clearly a Northern Manc, I recognise the accent as being from there, having lived in Newton Heath, Blackley and Higher Blackley, now residing in leafy Whitefield, Bury, still north of Manchester. South Manchester is a slightly different accent, inner city (Ancoats, Miles Platting, Collyhurst) is even more different, then there's Salford, different again...

[@libertyloveslife5602]

My family is from Manchester and this is spot on!

[@gujh03]

These aren't just restricted to Manchester but most of North England and some used all ov er UK.

[@laura51085]

i'm from Gorton, but have a different accent/dialect to her, even though it's the same city there's still a variety of accents!

[@BlueCraneBlue]

[@lilyanm-g3386]

I am Canadian and love the manc accent, didn’t know you had several.

[@hudsonquay]

This is true. I’m from South Manchester, which is quite distinct from north Manchester. Mad for it isn’t actually that widely used. Our kid is funny because it can be your younger or elder brother. The girl in the video sounds like south Manchester

[@laura51085]

@@hudsonquay Yes, my brother grew up in Cheadle, so we have completely different accents! Misbah sounds a bit Crumpsall way to me. And yes, nobody really says "mad fer it" no more, but i'm a lot older than Misbah, and maybe you, and i defo remember it being said a lot during the 80's Madchester era. Think it's said more ironically now though

[@RafaelCardoso299]

Awesome ! Gonna use this video with my student who's gonna stay in Manchester for a couple of months !

[@kirkob2370]

I was hoping she would mention the “meh” 😂 Thats another way to tell if someone’s proper Manc

[@TheChrist117]

'Sorted' (saw-id) = all good.

[@pietbonn]

Like that, but especially for a topic like this, really good mics and less echo would greatly help to fully get it. Thanks mate, that was mint, that!

[@lexwilderness6414]

House/ home can be called a gaff in the mcr, good video

[@Yass1915]

Thanks Billy. I watch your all videos. I like your all videos. 😊😊😊

[@thomasraywood679]

I very much suspect that the doubling of the pronoun at the end of a sentence serves two Mancunian purposes, each of them oriented toward social grace, working in concert. The one is that it affords an opportunity to "end on a high note," which is to say slide the voice from a lower to a higher note. The other is that is pretty much announces it's the other person's turn to speak.

[@jools182]

Misbah is lovely! Great video, made me think about how I speak! 😁

[@lillydragu3277]

It's always fun to learn new ways to speak English ... that's mint that Mancunian accent that!

[@Andavel111]

It's nice to have someone who actually does have a manc accent! haha - greetings from Tameside

[@alwolfy1782]

As a child my family taught me to say my ts but I do still miss the gs at the end of words. Lol. I live near Stockport so our accents are a little softer. I never understood why Liam and Noel speak like they do. I know people from Burnage and they sound more like me with a softer accent. The Oasis accent sounds put on to me. I never understood why. They are a similar age to me now.

[@leahkeyworth]

True. I was brought up in South Manchester and it's not that strong, apart from Wythenshawe is abit stronger. North Manchester is stronger. Alot of his is put on.

[@rickw.3426]

I'm trying to find out what the accent is of some of the characters in the Britbox show, The Bay. The last long "e" sound in a word is pronounced "eh". So a teenage girl named Abbie pronounces her name "Abbeh". "Maybe" is "maybeh" (or "mehbeh"). It's more pronounced than what I've heard with other British accents. I think I hear it in this woman's "You need to baff the 'babeh'." Does that strong "eh" identify Abbie's accent as Mancunian?

[@samsammmm470]

whenever people say the manchester accent they automatically think of noel and liam south or stockport side, when really theres such a different accent for the northern half of manc all the stops on the bury line and the north side. good to see some representation of the north of manc for once cos as we all know the north is better ;)

[@chiuchiuwan5848]

loving the automatic subtitle on youtube, it's so confusing! typical reaction of a southerner, haha

[@haroldsaxon3096]

This bloke in well sound

[@3rm3h]

great vid guys! it should include ‘angin!! same meaning as minging

[@aiganimamirova8795]

I think that the accent Mancunian is pronounce like a french speaking English, have a some of french accent.

[@mateoalbornoz8056]

yeaaaaah, the mancunian accent remember me to the accent that Denis Villeneuve has, and he is a french speaker.

[@mfdoomlover21]

Rah until I watched thos I didn't have any idea I spoke a bit like her. I'm from inner Manchester like moss side and fallowfield innit so we don't have much of that accent we just kinda like half londoner half northern mancunian. This is so weird. I've heard of most except a ginnel.

[@sean.furlong1989]

South Manchester here too, I have heard of most of these.

[@kaizze8777]

cheers boss 😀

[@Jacobinks]

This is great

[@doug6868]

She's quite posh and probably from not one of the estates Check out Colin Blaney for a true manc accent. Bez from Happy mondays sounds salford and Paul massey from salford. True mancs say Oh instead of AH See yo (as in sh'ot').

[@manc6221]

I literally thought i was the only one who thought ginnel was standard english til i was about 12

[@thedemongodvlogs7671]

Very North Manchester haha South Manchester is a lot more nasal and less drawn-out/dipthong-y

[@PaulStregevsky]

[@MUSICLOVER72]

How does Billy see anything!

[@ronycristino]

Some of the words sound like Korean or japanese. What a crazy thing I never know these manchester way to talk

[@Possumpostboy]

I don't really get told to close the door I get told to "put wood in hole" which I know sounds really weird and inappropriate but it's just put the wood (door) in hole (doorframe). (Do any mancs else hear this phrase or is my family weird?!)

[@alwaysmatchfit]

This video is mint.

[@hannahcracknell6483]

This is so funny how Liverpool & Manchester are basically like sister cities, yet the accent is SO different. At least to someone who's from that way. So my family are all.in Liverpool & the accent is just SO strong & distinctive. I feel like the the Liverpool accent is like somewhat similar to the Manchester accent but on steroids 😂 Just extra dramatic/spicy - just like the Liverpoodlians 😂

[@heartboyxo2496]

4:08 that "only tea" was a bit naturally scouse there Billy lad

[@gravygames5945]

I can explain the 'its good that' and 'shes good her' I think. Just saying 'thats good' or 'shes good' sounds insincere, like we have more to say or like we dont really care. If I told my friend I got a new job and they said 'oh thats good' I would be waiting for a '...but'. If they said 'thats good that' I know they arent going to carry on and they arent being sarcastic. I guess being sarcastic and negative is in our nature haha, we need that extra bit of emphasis.

[@paulbainbridge5498]

But I do drop h's and pronounce three and free exactly the same way

[@mrkristoff]

Weird that because I use 'mint' and 'wicked' still but associate saying 'free' instead of 'three' with being uneducated.
