I live in Bristol and was raised in Bedfordshire. This accent is somewhere between Bristol and Norfolk... but it has clearly developed to suit where they live now. The pace/rhythm of Bristol with the tone of Norfolk. I would love to spend a few days there and would enjoy seeing some of these folk over here. There is something about local dialects, we hardly recognise what we sound like until you are a thousand miles from home and you hear someone talking on the bus/train and thy sound just like one of your relatives.

As someone born and bred in Northern Ireland and who spends alot of time in Weymouth Dorset and Falmouth Cornwall, I can guarantee I've just head all three accents in this video, it's amazing it has stood the test of time, I guess being remote on the coast has played a part in that. In N Ireland along a 60 mile stretch of coast, we have at least 7 different accents deriving from Ulster Scott's, English plantation and Donegal Irish. All adds to the mix of life here but it does sometimes flumux the hundreds of thousands of tourists that visit the Causeway Coast .

I think all linguistic professionals and scholars and anybody interesting in anthropology, should bear that sentance in mind! Australia was first settled and colonised 180 years (1788) after the English first settled the Eastern Seaboard of the United States of America (USA). Jamestown was one of the first English settlements in the USA, in 1607). In fact, 1788, when the First Fleet led by Captain Arthur Phillip founded the first British settlement in Australian history, was after the USA gained independence from the British Empire! Everybody, bear that in mind too!

Because American stereotype of the British is something like the officers and royalty of the 1700s. Pompous and high-nosed. EDIT: Well, the most general and far-reaching stereotype that is. It all depends on what kinds of movies, music and documentaries and a shut-in American that you have been exposed to. The general American stereotype of Irish is bar hopping, drunk, red cheeked, fighting guys with no direction in life. The general American stereotype of Scottish is kilt wearing, sheep shearing (and fucking) hill and field people with bagpipes.

I'm from Northern England with Cornish parents, and when I go to the states they ask me if I'm Australian. Reality is most of the accents throughout the Anglosphere can still be detected somewhere in the British Isles but mostly England. In spite of the highly publicised and self-promoted Scottish and Irish contingent, who love nothing more than spinning a yarn, the English founders of these countries took their accents with them and had generations to establish themselves before the later arrivals from other parts of our Isles or further abroad. The West country accent seems to be present in most of the Anglosphere at one level or another.

never2late454 Yh because they root from north England and south Scottish colonists who had completely different accents then southern English ppl
@mohammedfahad35645 жыл бұрын
never2late454 This is a West Country/ east Anglian accent from England, but I don’t blame you for thinking of the resemblance since Australian and American (mainly southern) accents root from British settlers and colonists who came to your countries from different parts of the uk.

My kinfolk in Louisiana sound like French descendants, given that true Louisiana natives are French descendants. P.T. Beauregard spoke with a French accent, his subordinates referred to him as “the fighting Frenchman”

When I went to New Orleans I was surprised to hear, what sounded to me, like a New York accent. Not what I expected.

Some good friends of mine are from this neck of the woods. Two years ago they came to stay with me at my parents's house on the North Norfolk coast. My grandad was a real cantankerous sort in his old age and always liked to spring his broad Norfolk on people when he met them for the first time. He almost up and died when my friends understood him. There really is so much in common with the Norfolk accent here it's almost staggering.

Depends entirely on what specific location in the US you want to visit; each state is basically it's own country - with distinct cultures, ethnicities, and laws.

@@Ghostedwithdashiii what are you looking for? New York has its fair share of sights to see and things to do, but if you're looking for something less hectic and more scenic, I highly recommend Texas (though that could just be my own personal bias). San Antonio is a nice city to visit, with sights and history that dates back to the Nation's early history, while Corpus Christi - my birthplace - is a port city. We have nature reserves (courtesy of Padre Island), the Texas State Aquarium, a WW2 era battleship-turned museum (the USS Lexington; people say it's haunted), the first ever Whataburger (which is the fast food the pride of the South; I highly recommend the mushroom swiss and the honey BBQ chickenstrip), and Mexican influences. *Edit: I forgot to add H.E.B. How could forget!? As a Texan, I am ashamed...*

@@Ghostedwithdashiii yea honestly depends what you're into. It's a huge country with sooooooo many things to see and do in each region. If you do start off with NYC that's great, big benefit of north east is cities are pretty close. Like if you're there long enough say 2 weeks. You could hit NYC, DC and even Boston. What times to come to the north east definitely spring or fall. Summer gets real humid and winter is cold af. Miami is a great choice too if you're tryna hit Florida, hit the city, the florida keys and the Everglades. travel up 3 hrs and see the Kennedy space center and then Disney World if you into that. And also visit St Augustine, America's oldest city settled by the Spanish. Texas the other gentlemen commented already got into. But yea basically America has id say 10-15 very distinct regions with different cultures and landscapes than the others. Pacific Northwest, south west, Rockies, Sierra Nevadas, Texas, Florida, California, Louisiana, Appalachians mountains , the Midwest, great lakes region, Mississippi delta, mid Atlantic, the south, the deep south, new England, Hawaii, Alaska. Like when people say every state is different I don't think that's true honestly. But the US does have very distinct regions that are all beautiful in their own right that you won't regret seeing.

Exactly, we Yanks are from Somerset, Bristol, Dorset, Devon, Essex, Plymouth, Cornwall, etc. All over west country. Of course we too have some with Scot, Irish, and Welsh blood too. We're just as English as you are.
