HOW I GOT A BRITISH ACCENT + TOP 10 TIPS TO SOUND LIKE A NATIVE ENGLISH SPEAKER | Ysis Lorenna

[@richardforrest1324]

You have a perfect Welsh accent. I am a Welshman. Many of the people in the comments are unfamiliar with the Welsh accent and actually many people think the Welsh accent sounds like the Indian accent. English people who can't do a Welsh impression often do an Indian accent.

[@YsisLorenna]

Thank you! It's funny you should say that, actually. My husband (who's Welsh) says this as well, and so do all our Welsh family & friends here. It's not the most well known accent, is it? So I think some people get a bit confused :)

[@kaukov59]

Ysis Lorenna I don't speak English,not I want to learn English with your lessons.

[@msneo8839]

Lol, no way in hell does a Welsh accent sound like an Indian one! 😂 It's a night and day difference

[@lebronjamesuit]

Summary 1. Copy, copy and copy how people say the word 2. Forget how you sound the word in your mother tongue 3. Create your own British environment, EVERYWHERE, background music, tv shows 4. Practice tricky sounds, like TH and so on 5. Group words similar hand + band + land.... 6. Find someone that you want to sound like, imitate 7 Try to find out why you're not sound like native speakers --> correct it 8. Always check on dictionary the word 9. Listening really carefully, even more than speaking 10. Don't spend much money for accent, learn on youtube

[@ktdoty9921]

Us Americans can barely tell the difference either.

[@letiziaciancarini3804]

My mother tongue teacher (I'm doing a new languages school so we have, beside italian English teacher, a mothertangue teacher) was Welsh and then I had an American teacher, now Australian and I really cant tell the difference... I mean, I kinda understand when it's a British, Australian or American accent but I can't really tell the difference between more specifics ones I can't even tell the difference between italian dialects so I guess that's normal ahahah

[@CA-zn5wn]

Well.. Wales is in Great Britain, so for those saying she doesn't sound British but Welsh... it's still a British accent! And she says, she has a Welsh accent so... 🙄

[@gumtree5824]

I think people are thinking the UK is only England, WHICH IS NOT TRUE.

[@jac85almeida]

I think she said because in the UK there are many accents. Like Gordie, Cockney, Scouse, etc. She has a brit accent, but specifically a welsh accent.

[@raymondporter2094]

@@jac85almeida I am British, living in North Yorkshire but my parents were both Welsh. The accent shown by Ysis in her video is how you would expect a well-educated native speaker, a middle-class (which means something different in the UK to what it may mean in the USA) young lady to sound. In other words she uses what we would call "Received Pronunciation" (RP) with a gentle Welsh lilt. Very pleasant on the ear. Nobody in the UK would think of her as a foreign national. (She'd be a great spy!!). RP is sometimes referred to as BBC English or Oxford English which is the way English would have been pronounced** by a. Newsreader on national TV, a teacher, a professor at University etc. In the last few decades, regional.accents have become more "acceptable" in the UK, in a moderated or gentle way. Regional broadcasting companies use people who have a gentle regional accent but would hardly ever use someone with a heavy regional accent. If someone used a heavy/thick accent from Birmingham/Glasgow/Liverpool/Newcastle then many people from outside those local areas might have problems understanding what was being said. If you rely on being understood, for example a lawyer in court, a pilot trying to understand instructions from Flight Control, you really need to understand what is said and to be understood by others. The problem with RP is that it was perceived as a "class indicator". People with Geordie, Welsh, Scottish etc accents might be just as well educated, successful or wealthy as somebody using RP but might not have been PERCEIVED as such. But most people who DO use RP still retain some slight lilt, a slight indicator of the region in the UK in which they either grew up or learned to speak English. The thing is that, wherever you are in the UK and abroad, if you speak RP, English people will understand you in a way which might not be the case of you spoke with a thick/broad/heavy accent such as Geordie, Brum, Glasgow etc. People often used to say that the "best" accented English was from people in the Aberdeen area of Scotland. ** Fanously, in the 2nd World War, the BBC used a newsreader called Wilfred Pickles who spoke with a Yorkshire accent (not a VERY heavy one, but an accent which was clearly a Yorkshire accent). That was because it was felt foreigners (eg a German station broadcasting propaganda in English) would find it difficult to feign a Yorkshire accent and also because someone speaking in that accent was thought to have "credibility". Even now, you will see occasional newspaper articles about the hierarchy of regional accents in the UK as some are considered more prestigious or its users more trustworthy than others. That is becoming an old-fashioned way of looking at these issues. But people's attitudes about these things are not necessarily logical.

Great advice here! I used to be in UK, to learn english.. but the whole town was full with Poles ;) I am Pole myself but that was not helping at all lol ;) My additional tricks are: - record yourself, play it and hear where your problems are. Make a list with your problem words. - use a "Text to speech" website where you can choose many english speakers. (google translator has only one speaker) - Using the text to speech method, practice your problem words. - Watch movies / shows in english.

[@lumpycharlie]

I'd just like to say that I think your accent is fab! Considering you've only been in the UK for 7 years you've done wonders! But what's funny reading these posts, are that some people are saying you don't have a British accent!! WHAT?! I think many people fail to understand just how diverse the UK/Britain is when it comes to accents. Britain/UK (Wales, England, Scotland, Northern Ireland) has well over 300 accents and dialects between them! Hey folks! We don't all live in London......we don't all speak like the Queen and the Royal family (or EastEnders/Coronation street!) and we don't all drink tea!! Keep up the good work Ysis Lorenna because you sound great to me, a British native who has Welsh relatives and friends, but was born and raised in the county of Dorset, England....now there's a "British" accent that would flumux those "nay sayers"! Lol!

Thanks for the suggestion. We are all different. I know many people who have lived in the UK for over 20 years and still can't shake off their native accent. I'm very lucky, indeed. My accent may not be 'a big deal' to you, as you said, but it's a great achievement to me. I've shared my experience and I'm glad to receive messages every day about how my videos have been helpful to many. Well done you on your English learning.

[@TheGisert]

She's right on point!!!! Follow her advice!!!! Listen carefully and raise phonological awareness. Then COPY COPY COPY!!! I know you might feel ridiculous or over the top! You hardly ever do, though!This exactly how I got rid of my accent entirely. I'm a non-native speaker and people keep hinting I'm a native, welcoming me with awe when they learn I born and raised abroad... don't let anyone tell you you could never accomplish an authentic accent without being brought speaking the language. Second language acquisition research has been proving that outdated notion time and time again!!!!

[@walterwhite5578]

[@englishmagicjj622]

Your accent is far more clear and attractive to listen to than the majority of native speakers! Well done!

[@BristolMatt]

I was wondering about your accent for a while now. I must not have been subbed at this point. I can't believe people are saying you sound Indian. They are ridiculous. You sound more British/Welsh than anyone i know....and i come from Bristol so see the best of both countries. You have nailed it! More than nailed it. Top of the class is an understatement. If your man helped you along he should be proud of himself as well. I will say that to crack the accent so beautifully and understand all the different things that come with learning a language and then trying to speak it without sounding like a foreigner is something i have never seen before. I would bet anything that you have a high i.Q. I could never even learn a different language let alone crack the way to speak it like an expert. I will stop the compliments now haha. I just think its amazing what you have done.

You sound entirely British to me, although I'd struggle to guess which part of the UK you were from. The only time I thought you sounded Welsh was when you pronounced "starting" as "startin'". You've obviously worked very hard on learning English.

[@dgmenace73]

You have a great Welsh accent! I think it's one of the most, "wanted" accent but hardest for southern Americans.....People tell me all the time that I have a very distinct southern accent. I don't realize it until I hear a recording of myself. I just really like to hear people talk with a British accent. I have seen movie stars talking from very southern to very British accents and it just amazes me. Thanks for your video!

Ysis you speak so clear and you are not only fluent but eloquent. You talk a lot and this is not a very British thing 😀 so you lost your Brazilian accent but still your way of make conversation is like a Latin person. I appreciate a lot your videos which I think are fabulous. My main problem is that I don't use enough my English even I've been living in UK for about 5 years because we speak Italian at home and I don't find many english people to have a long conversation easily. I'm attending a beauty course in a college but still people socialise just a little. I think in countries like Spain, Italy or Cuba where I come from is easier learning the language because people talk to you more than in UK and they are less polite when need to correct you when you make mistakes. I always ask my English friends to correct me but they never do it.

I have a little tip, similar to one of your tips. I have downloaded several of Sherlock's scripts, the BBC series with Benedict Cumberbatch. I select a fragment of the character's script, imitating his accent, his articulation and body language in front of the mirror. So I force my brain to get into "British mode", and thus I learn the accent, I enjoy improving several English language skills. I have also done it with some movie director Michael Caine.

I think the haters haven't watched the video to the end nor read the description

[@osaosachannel]

Your accent is so beautiful and sounds like a native English speaker. Your tips are helpful and practical. Thank you for posting the video.

[@ESTUDIOSSR]

seu sotaque é bem parecido com um árabe ou indiano. apesar de ser brasileira.

[@MacarraoTrickzter]

Antes dela falar que era brasileira, eu pensei que ela era indiana kkkkkkk

[@ialeixo84]

Sim, a aparência dela é total de indiana....tb me confundiu

[@Henzo17]

Pelo sotaque eu imaginei que fosse indiana.

[@antoniocarlossousa8207]

Só se for apenas pela aparência. Porque o sotaque dela soa absolutamente britânico. Trabalhei 1 ano com indianos e o sotaque indiano é reconhecido pela maneira peculiar deles pronunciarem os N, T, R e TH. Não é o caso dela.

[@anyperin4921]

Eu pensei q ela fosse americana antes dela ter falado q era brasileira

[@sashapaul5360]

Ysis, thank you so much for your top 10 tips, it was so helpful and you speak English beautifully.

[@niltonborges775]

Very good accent.

[@ann-aniediasikpo494]

Your doing just great,pls keep it up.I really need your help to get rid of my thick accent.

[@HollyParish]

I thought you sounded a bit Welsh even before you said your husband was! Especially on the word "together". Really can't hear a Brazilian accent at all.

[@jonatasmvii]

hey!!I loved it your video. I´m a brazilian guy and I´m living in salvador and i want to live in london in some years and also i´m fluent in english. but my next and final step it´s be a native english guy with the british accent. thank you!! I appreciated it

[@sambaffled5081]

you haven't got British accent, neither estuary nor welsh. to me yours sounded similar to that of a very polished Indian person. you do have commendable level of english, though.

[@asanyal296]

Sam Baffled - I am Indian and I don't think she sounds Indian. On the phone I would think she was British or someone who has lived 5+ years. She looks Indian to me (read beautiful).

[@asanyal296]

5+ years in Britain

[@wilfriedstocktonco.8740]

Sam Baffled, She's not Indian. How the fuck can she acquire an Indian accent without ever been to India? It's NOT a polished Indian accent. Anyone who's lived in both India and in one of the multicultural boroughs of London knows that it doesn't even sound 1% Indian.

[@walterwhite5578]

Lol, how can she have an Indian accent when she never been to Indian. You assume she has an Indian because of her skin tone. If you had never seen her before and she spoke to you on the phone, there is no way you will be saying she is Indian.

[@SaifZiya]

While looking for Tips, I "ended up" here. Thanks because your video also helped me learn using 'Ended up', 'End up', 'Ending up', etc.

[@stargazingcomfy]

You sound welsh though

[@79soleil]

No One Knows Me and how is welsh non British?

[@andreivictor5940]

Holly Molly !!! You speak English very well !!! You go girl , I'm just like you , I speak English fluently , but I don't have this British accent , I have the American accent .

[@alexandergomes3317]

i still hear an accent though

[@romanstaszak244]

Ysis, your tips are very useful. I totally agree with you that practice make you perfect. You master your English language very well and I can tell this because I still learning the language although I have been living in England for 8 years. Congratulation and good luck 🙂 Thank you for sharing your information with us 🙂🙂

[@mfst100]

[@shelbymorales7761]

Paweł G Lol I feel u

[@mfst100]

Thank you so much.

[@suzannereilman4516]

Paweł G ...NO KIDDING, kind of droned on and on before getting to ANY points..:)

[@renatakc]

Well done! Congratulations, girl! As a Brazilian Portuguese native speaker, I know how difficult is getting rid of the American/foreign accent.

[@paolashiadani1046]

Are u indian???

[@asanyal296]

Paola Martínez - she is Brazilian. Says so at the outset!

[@Ayankhan-uc6gd]

Paola Martínez plz help me to improve my accent mail me at [e-mail]

[@burnsantos5735]

[@travellerlove1019]

If she were Indian then what is need of learn english???....though India is second largest english speaking country in the world 😂

[@ch3rry_dream]

Garota você me inspira! Tenho planos de me mudar pro Reino Unido depois da escola e desde já só estudo inglês britânico, é um sotaque tão belo e cortês 😻

[@dadollyxox]

You don't really have a British accent tbh, like it's a mix between a British and a Indian accent tbh

[@wilfriedstocktonco.8740]

Hahahahahahahahaha!!!!! It's not even 1% Indian. She's from Brazil!!!!!!

[@ArxlxnRbx]

finesse kid r u okay wait nvm ur not

[@walterwhite5578]

+kb killa Lol, how can she have an Indian accent when she never been to Indian. You assume she has an Indian because of her skin tone. If you had never seen her before and she spoke to you on the phone, there is no way you will be saying she is Indian.

[@kentishmale1969]

She's got a slight Welsh accent which you might be mistaking for being Indian

[@justdoit9125]

Hi Ysis! You totally sound like a native Welsh speaker. I'm the comments they say you sound Indian. But trusts me it's totally different than people think. You've got a perfect Welsh accent!!!

[@esqueletodealice]

You have indian accent lol not British

[@wishfulthinking8384]

Plus, Indian accent is very annoying and I can't even catch what they are saying, it's kind of mixing Hindi and English together I guess. From real experience on way back home just 6 days ago on a train.

[@marialuisa4955]

Nossa, seu sotaque é lindo! Eu sou fascinada pelos sotaques britânicos, e de tanto assistir vídeos e séries britânicos, eu acabei ficando com um sotaque inglês; porém TODO mundo que eu conheço debocha do jeito que eu falo, falam que eu finjo ser britânica, que meu sotaque é falso e forçado. Juro que nunca tinha visto outra pessoa brasileira que fala inglês com um sotaque britânico. Me sinto reconfortada. Ótimo vídeo! Lots of love from Minas Gerais ❤️

[@EFL_Orlando_USA_School_k-12]

Indian accent ... with British pronunciation...

[@matheusmartinsdossantos1649]

[@harrietttheoneeyedcat1029]

Uhhh as a native speaker, I can tell you that you definitely do NOT sound like a native English speaker.

[@purpleanex]

Harriett the One Eyed Cat ...where are you from?

[@kentishmale1969]

Yes she does, with a slight Welsh accent added

[@evam2es]

Excellent tips, Ysis! As a Spaniard, very similar to portuguese, I also have some problems pronouncing the words you spoke of. Love your accent, by the way...Thanks so much for the video and the playlist!

[@biaelemiah4027]

Sou BR também, moro no US e tenho sotaque Americano. Quero muito aprender a ter um British Accent. O seu é maravilhoso, parabéns!!!

[@sebastiancastillo3560]

Hello!, I've to say that your pronunciation is just perfect, i've studied only hearing your voice. I need to practice my english a lot. Greetings and thanks from Chile!

[@lucasreboucas3131]

Hi Ysis, It's really good to know your English learning path because it is really similar to mine, but the other way around. I went to a British school of English and all the media I would read/listen would be British, so I ~naturally~ ended up developing a British accent. Not so natural because I would always care a lot about how I sound since the very beginning and would make a lot of effort to sound as correct as possible haha What happened was that I went for an academic exchange program last year in the United States and my English accent got all messed up. Americans would say I have a lot of British in my accent, and Brits would say I sound American haha I am back to Brazil now and the idea of losing fluency really terrifies me haha I think I also feel more comfortable speaking English, but that's actually not because I can express myself better (which I don't think I can), but because I just find it pleasant to speak a different language and make my brain work on that. I am really curious to hear your Portuguese! You just got a new subscriber!! :D

[@julianaffernandes297]

Amei seu vídeo, era realmente o que eu estava procurando, porque eu acho o sotaque britânico muito lindo, parece que tudo soa mais elegante, mas meu professores falavam com sotaque americano. O melhor é que eu consegui entender tudo o que vc falou. ❤❤

[@fishywishydishywoo]

Why would you want to lose your Brazilian accent? It's so beautiful.
