ONE language, THREE accents UK vs USA vs AUS English Differences! (part 2)

This dynamic trio is the best. I love how they demonstrate on how they pronounce it and explain it further and compare it amongst them. Love you guys!

[@heilong79]

Usually it is the other way around because the rest of the English speaking world gets so much American TV and film that we all understand them because we are used to hearing them but they are not used to hearing different non American accents and usually dont understand.

For the last one; Mobile - in Australia, we say the American version when talking about cars (such as the Bat Mobile), but the UK version when talking about phones (cell / smart phones), telecommunication networks, and businesses that travel to customers (like mobile dog groomers or hairdressers that come to you).

[@cactustactics]

Batmobile is the French way! probably

[@QanunAlShah]

But we would say bat mobeel, whereas American say mobil.

[@RebelMystic9]

​@QanunAlShah Actually in America, for the Bat Mobile we say it that same way as Bat Mo-beel, nobody says Bat Mo-buy-l

[@Ivan-fm4eh]

Batmobile is pronounced the same everywhere (bat-mo-BEEL) because it comes from automobile (auto-mo-BEEL).

[@johnalden5821]

Apparently, both spellings (aluminum and aluminium) were used, often interchangeably, beginning around the time that the metal was first named in the early 1800s. The word comes from a Latin root, alumen (alumine in French). The spellings did not really become set until the late 1800s, and the U.S. just happened to settle on aluminum, which was suggested by Noah Webster but not finally adopted until the 1920s. BTW/apparently in this case, the Canadians also use the aluminum spelling -- a departure from their standard use of British spellings.

[@rajkaranvirk7525]

Canadian English is actually a mix of both American and British English plus unique Canadian words. So it’s not really a departure. Canada also uses “Organize” as opposed to “Organise”

[@tildessmoo]

A good explanation of how most words got different spellings and pronunciations between the US and UK, but alumin(i)um is a bit different... You might notice that the spelling and pronunciation are tied together in this case. The story is actually pretty interesting, but it's a bit of a wall o'text especially in a YT comment, so tl;dr: it's got a lot to do with scientists arguing about naming things, then the US and Canada both ended up familiar with a different spelling than the UK because of an ad campaign. Dictionaries are only involved because Noah Webster was an ass, but even he didn't actually succeed in standardizing the US spelling. It starts with Humphrey Davy, who tried to discover aluminum and was an amazing scientist but terrible at naming things. See scientists knew that aluminum must exist because of its missing spot on the periodic table, and many suspected that this stuff called "alum" in English, "alumine" in French, and "alumen" in Latin must be an aluminum salt, so they talked about it long before it was actually discovered. Anyway, Davy proposed "alumium" (a faux-Latin ending on the English word alum, which is all kinds of terrible) in 1808, then, after thorough criticism, suggested "aluminum" (Latin for "alum stuff," by way of tacking the Latin -um neuter ending onto "alumin-," which is the stem version of "alumen" that you'd add a suffix to) a few years later. This quickly caught on in the UK, but... Then someone suggested that "aluminium" had a more "classical sound." Don't ask me why, since "aluminium" is just the diminutive of "aluminum" in Latin. Anyway, apparently everyone agreed, including Davy, because everyone ended up calling it aluminium for a while. That changed for some reason after a Dutch chemist actually discovered it in 1825. Even though the entire (English-speaking) scientific community used -ium consistently, a few people used -um in casual conversation, on both sides of the pond, and a few years later Webster actually used the -um spelling in his dictionary _in spite of_ the wider use of -ium even in the US. That did the job of splitting the US about 50/50 between -ium and -um. (Slightly favoring -ium, actually.) Then in the 1890s, the first industrial-scale aluminum production company opened in the US, and they advertised using the -um spelling, pretty much forcing us to use the -um spelling; within five years, -ium was almost gone from the country. I'm not 100% certain about the UK, but I think they may have united behind -ium in support of their smaller-scale aluminium-producing chemists. (The scientific community used -ium exclusively, so were more constrained in their usage than industrialists.) There's speculation that the ad may have been a typo (the patents involved in the industrial process all used -ium), but there's evidence that the man behind both the patents and the ads thought that the -um ending evoked thoughts of platinum, making people willing to pay more, and he would have used the -ium ending as a matter of course for the science-based processes detailed in his patent applications. This also explains why Canada uses the US spelling when they use the UK spelling for most words where there's a difference: firstly, there's a pronunciation difference that goes with the spelling, and Canadian English is closer to US English than UK English; secondly, proximity exposed Canada to the sales and advertisements of American aluminum manufacturers, who had such a strong influence on the word.

The stop T is very common in American English. Example, the American pronunciation of "can't" Can't in particular is tough for ESL students because there is consequences to confusing can and can't. Words like wait and way can also be confusing for the same reason, there is no T sound to hear, only an abrupt stop that serves as the T sound.

Aluminum vs Aluminium - here in Canada, I very rarely hear it pronounced like "alloo-min-yum", it's instead almost always pronounced "alloo-min-um". The only times I've heard "alloo-min-yum" is from people originally from England :)

[@slayer8actual]

Yes, the words Aluminum and Aluminium are pronounced differently because they are spelled differently. I've had this discussion before with folks from Australia and its' understandable why we say it differently. I think it's interesting listening to different accents and trying to figure out where people are from. I've heard many non-US people try to fake an US Southern accent and they almost always sound like an over-the-top hillbilly with lots of twangs and drawls, but for me there are even many variations of the Southern accent. I can usually tell if someone is from Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Georgia, Kentucky, North Carolina etc. Each region or state has its own sound, accent or pronunciation. I know it's like that in the UK with its many variations across the country, but what about Australia? Can someone there tell if someone else is from the north or south part of country? Are the regions as distinct as in the US and UK? To me all Aussies sound the same, and I know this may hurt some feelings, but I've heard an Aussie get upset because someone asked them if they were from New Zealand. They said, "I sound nothing like a Kiwi!"...uh, yes you do. Exactly like a Kiwi....sorry.

[@HW-em7fd]

this was neat to watch as being a Canadian of mostly Irish Swedish and Scottish ancestry and a tiny bit French and Welsh heritage too .. Having grown up knowing I was at least 70% Irish and having family members speaking all these accents It is neat to see how the Australian accents sounds most like our some of our word pronunciations but then other words sound more like and Irish accent or US accent but not really British at all.. which I thought would be the case due to the welsh roots but nope.. also these are not as thick accents in these videos as like my grann parents though so it is nice to hear them.. yet the Scottish accent in the other video was super weird but this video was much better.

I also would've loved to hear the differences between the word "specific"

[@silviaoliveira1402]

Actually, the word aluminium comes from Latin and, in my opinion, the UK accent is the most similar to the original word. 🇧🇷

[@stevetalkstoomuch]

Generally in the US "can" is reduced to "ken" since it's quick, even for us New Yorkers who love our "AAAAAAAAs". The negative is "caaan't", so ken vs caaan't is more easily discernable. "Can't" has the glottal stop at the end, and it is very subtle to foreigners. UK also differentiates but with "can" and "cahn't". Personally I've never heard an American say "alumiNIUM" and I worked for Alcoa (Aluminum Company of America). In my mother's New Hampshire accent, "garage" is "garaRge" which I actually said until high school when it was pointed out to me. Also in NY we said "CARmull" but now I say "caramel". The towns are pronounced "CarMEL"

[@ayden3133]

Aluminum is technically the term used to describe an alloy with aluminium in it, where as the name for the element is aluminium (at least in North America). So someone saying aluminum can would be a correct pronunciation but if they were calling the element aluminum, that would be wrong. But most Americans seem to use aluminum even when describing the element even though their periodic table still says aluminium. In short, aluminium is part of aluminum but aluminum is not part of aluminium

So, I was interested to hear my pronunciation being reproduced by the British girl here.

Nah, we have a lot of accent variation in the UK but "garridge" is extremely common. I'd associate the french-style "garahdj" (you know what I mean) with parts of the south, or posh people. From your description of her I wouldn't be surprised if she was the latter!
