slightly disagree. i do agree that they weren't representative but for example i've grown up in the same northern village my whole life with northern english family with northern accents and people always think i have an american accent. yes they should have found people with actual representative accents but not everyone who grows up in certain areas has those accents. and no i've never studied acting and i've only lived away from my county for 8 months.

I'm sure he said Cornwall is not a county. It most certainly IS a county. One more point is that after the Merseyside girl said 'bath' he started saying that was from Yorkshire rather than Merseyside or Lancashire. He knows SO much about British accents that I'm surprised about this big mistake. The so called 'trap-bath' divide is a hugely important factor in British accents. Everyone in the north of England from a point just south of Birmingham upwards pronounces the vowels in the words 'trap' and 'bath' the same with a short 'a' sound. In the south they pronounce them differently with 'trap' having a short 'a' and 'bath' having a long open vowel rhyming with general UK pronunciation of 'half'. So her saying 'bath' with a short vowel is a sign she is from the north in general (which she is) not Yorkshire in particular.

Wrong , Im from Southampton and in our working class accent we pronounce bath grass etc same as northerners do. It's something about academic study of accents that annoys me, the complete ignoring of working class southern accents which are more often than not the true accents of that area. They use working class accents for the northern accent studies but not for southern. I think its because of classism within academia.

That girl with the pink jumper and black skirt has some funny inflections that remind me of Asian accents. I’m wondering if she’s picked up a few Korean inflections. If I heard her say some of the sentences she says, I’d even say she was a Korean person speaking very good English. I lived near Cheltenham and she sounds a bit different. I’m a bit confused by his geography - “the black country/ Yorkshire border”… um… where’s that then?! Derbyshire is in the way! I was raised in Devon but don’t have a Devonian accent. I’m more RP, like she is. My husband is Devonian and his accent comes through with a/r/ar sounds. His parents both have thicker accents and his grandparents had even thicker accents. Cornwall is a county. The old name for Devon is Devonshire and it’s used in certain contexts still - such as another way to say something is from Devon (like ‘Devonian’). A Devonshire cream tea, for example.

Can someone PLEASE tell me when this guy goes back and forth so much between a British accent and a Korean accent?? It’s not a blend, it’s like he has both accents and switches mid sentence

None of them had a strong accent, that's the issue. Even though I've lived in Glasgow for 4 years now, I thought the guy was from somewhere else, because his accent was so soft

"Korean Billy" sounds so much like a Karl Pilkington friend. Then again, it sounds like a nickname that could definitely stick to someone in some town/ housing estate or something. Probably someone who is not Korean.

This was a bit of a shame. Of the 6 people, you chose 4 posh people with homogenised SP accents. So it's kind of irrelevant where they come from in terms of accent identification.

As these Brits live abroad they have all slightly weakened thier accents, little point talking fast with strong accent using local dialect as your just be asked to repeat yourself so the accent becomes weaker, Scots hard to hide but I would not have said Glasgow, more Stirling to me, London accents were all pretty middle class harder to pin point in city as more RP, Lauren is well Lauren and I actually guessed Cheltenham correct thx to word festival (racing) and it clearly was in that region but not coastal.

As a Scot, the Scots guy didn't sound like he came from Glasgow at all. He did in fact say he came from a village. When Korean Billy said that the accent sounded "thicker" than Edinburgh, I nearly spat out my coffee because I've heard some pretty "thick" Edinburgh accents in my time. I agree with you about Stirling. The guy could have come from anywhere between Callander and Crieff.

@@alicemilne1444 he’s definitely from a wee village close to the likes of Bathgate and is definitely middleclass. I’m from Edinburgh and I was filled with rage 😂. People from Edinburgh can enunciate better than Glaswegians and we dont have that ‘singing’ quality towards the end of a sentence. Once we add in our east coast vocabulary he’s be totally lost. Let him read trainspotting 😂

This really wasn't the best sample of people to choose to perform this experiment. I'm fairly good with English and Welsh accents, but they all sounded very close to RP to me (with the exception of the Scot, and even his accent was a very mild version of Glaswegian). I think most native speakers of English English would have difficulty locating these accents to anything more precise than 'RP' or 'Southern'.
