"Shurrup!" or "Sh'rup!" - Shut up! "Int ee ovver there" - Isn't he over there? "Ow much izzit?" - How much does this cost? "I ampt dun it" - I haven't done it "Eey, lass/lad, amofta't park!" - Hey female/male, I'm off (going) to the park "Canya gerrus sum torlet/bog roll?" - Can/could you get me/us some toilet paper? (optional: can pronounce 'roll' like 'doll') "Izzit just me or izzit 'ot inere?" - Is it just me or is it hot in here? "Bloody 'ell, it's crackin' t'flags aht there." Bloody hell, it's so hot outside the concrete and walkways are breaking apart. "Am colder than a witch's tit." - It's extremely cold outside/I'm cold, also, 'Am bloody frozzen."

[@w00tz4ibanez]

I’m not from the UK but lived in Scotland for a couple years. One thing that fascinated me is how in England, the closer you get to Scotland the more the Scots accent kind of slowly creeps into the language. At least that’s what it sounds like to foreign ears when listening to Northern English accents, and makes sense geographically. I even understand the slang better since a lot of it is also present in Scotland (definitely have heard “proper chuffed” a ton). It’s so cool!

[@doncorleole2356]

yeah, stuff gets more germanic and less romantic/French the farther ya go, regarding both pronunciation and wording

[@bogwoppit792]

I'm led to believe that the Yorkshire dialects are very Old Norse influenced where as North of the River Tees going up to the Scottish Borders even Edinburgh, it's more Old English influenced. Being a Yorky myself who travels to Whitley Bay a lot it interests me how 50 miles from Scarborough, North Yorkshire it starts to become even more Northern English. I think there's quite a difference between Hartlepool and Middlesbrough...also Redcar and Guisborough. Also the Cumbrian accent comes across as a mix of Yorkshire and Durham Dale's speak.

[@sophiefoster1311]

It’s not Scottish. Yorkshire is mostly Norse influenced

[@w00tz4ibanez]

@@sophiefoster1311 I’m not saying it’s Scottish. But it sounds more so. There are Norse influences into the Scottish accent as well. It all makes sense geographically, and I think that transition going north into the region is really cool.

Minneapolis, Minnesota here. We do drop the g in some ing words. A main one would be "coming." Also "doing." But would only drop it in certain types of sentences. "Are you comin with?" "Whatcha doin?" But it also depends on the situation. Most here wouldn't drop the g in a formal setting like at work or school or even with grandparents/relatives, etc. It's informal so would be used with friends or immediate family for the most part.

It is such and interesting accent and as much as we try to teach people our accents I don’t think we will ever be able to be fully understood.

When mentioning the TV Programmes our regional soap is actually Emmerdale. It's set between Leeds and Harrogate. Which are both urban areas in Yorkshire. Coronation Street is more Lancashire and Manchester. Their accents are slightly different to ours and use words we're not familiar with. Hollyoaks is a mixture of Scouse and the traditional Cheshire accent.

I am here because I want to understand the female Doctor Who, I think she's from Yorkshire too and I needed this video, thank you Anna for doing it, I loooove it!

Stephen Foz I think she can do both accents pretty well and the company thought she was the best for it

The Yorkshire dialect is virtually a language, we have a unique culture and we definitely associate ourselves with the county first. I’m Yorkshire first then British

[@tayloringham8212]

I'm from West Yorkshire and I feel like we have the strongest Yorkshire accent. To me, when I heard Loren I didn't even think she was from Yorkshire. I think the diversity comes from the large amount of farmland so a lot of Yorkshire is quite sparsely populated (except city's like Leeds and York etc). Very interesting tho, some words we use here are things like chuck the same way you would duck, sithee as well as tarra and also tea cake instead of bun which I heard her use.

[@xRainbowCloud]

I'm from South Yorkshire, and I definitely agree that West Yorkshire has the stronger accents, especially nearing north Yorkshire. And we say teacake here in Barnsley as well, it's so good to finally find someone else who doesn't call it a bread bun or bread roll or whatever ridiculous names they've come up with. XD

[@nikolaisliwerski]

@@xRainbowCloud agree, Loren here sounds more north east than Yorkshire to me

[@insightful_fairy8743]

For sure! I’m from South Yorkshire and have family in West Yorkshire and we sound completely different ! I’m from the farming area and even the Barnsley accent is completely different from mine! (Which is 7 miles away!)

Wouldn't say "stronger", just different. Very different tbf 😂😂

Yes! So many people didn't know what mardy meant until the Arctic Monkeys came along 😂 nah then mardy bum! I don't say the 'h' in a word and rarely say 'the' either. "Mam am gunna shop tha want owt". Yorkshire is the best!

[@xRainbowCloud]

You're not wrong. No one can ever understand a chuffing word I say if they're not from either South or West Yorkshire, and trying to speak to people from the rest of Europe or the US on discord is either a nightmare or one huge piss take, or both.

[@alanastone5241]

[@drey8]

My favourites are "cut oil in it" for cut a hole in it, "put wood int oil" (shut the door, obviously), "coyt" for coat, and of course "thissen" for oneself. Reyt gud.

[@chaudybtrippin9972]

Born and raised in South Texas, my mother always said "by gum" but used it more as like a "dang it" or "gd"....more like a replacement for a cuss word.

[@pamelaratcliff7737]

I am from West Yorkshire and hadn’t actually heard of maftin. I emigrated to Australia more than fifty years ago and when I first came had quite a strong Yorkshire accent and also spoke very fast so the Aussie friends I made would smile and nod but had no idea what I was talking about. Over the years my accent whilst still a Yorkshire one has ‘mellowed’ I think because I’m married to an Aussie. People still say ‘you’ve still got your accent.’

[@ams1897]

Used in Hull, not heard it anywhere in Yorkshire though. Hull`s a bit of an oddity though, not sure we really consider ourselves Yorkshire (feeling is mutual I hear).

Game of Thrones made me look up more about the northen english accents. Great video, thanks 🙏🏻 I hope you make more like this.

[@LynnaeaEmber]

Interesting, I live in Tennessee and have heard many pronounce their words quite similar to the Yorkshire accent. They don't drop their H but they do drop the G on ING and they gutterize the middle Ts. also vowels are similar. In fact many of her words sound normal to me. I have heard "by gum", and my grandmother told me her grandfather would say "hey up"..

[@Stargazzer811]

A little fun fact for you, alot of people from Scotland and middle/western England settled in Kentucky and Tennessee back in the 1700s. Part of the reason is because the Appalachian Mountains resemble the Scottish Highlands, which is not by accident; millions of years ago, Scotland sat where the St Laurence river now empties out into the Atlantic, and the Appalachians spread all the way up there. When the parts that make up Britain broke off from the supercontinent they were attached to, what became Scotland took the northern tip of the mountain range with it. When the settles arrived from England and moved further inland they noticed the similarities and began settling there, and the relative remoteness of the area allowed their native dialects to continue on for a significant period before evolving into something new.

Honestly words, phrases and accents can differ a lot depending on where you are from in Yorkshire.

[@jamesmolchan2896]

I'm an American from Tennessee, but don't call me a Yank (we know you mean American, but it sounds offensive to Southern ears). I recognized "by gum" as something used by some Southerners, usually older ones. Probably rather rare now. I loved your presentation and have an affinity for accents, too. Keep it up,y'all!
