Let's go.

Let's quickly talk about what accent you find in the south of England and in the north of England.

So in the South you have received pronunciation.

Cock me multicultural London English breast, Olean s tree, English on a variety of other ones in the Southwest.

Particularly that in the north of England you're gonna have accents like and Mancunian accent, a Scouse accent, which is from Liverpool.

A jury accent, which is from Newcastle Brahmi from Birmingham Yorkshire Accent within Yorkshire There's lots of different accents.

So yeah, those are the main ones that we're gonna be focusing on today.

The first main difference between the North and the south of England is something we call the trap buff.

Split on.

This is what you have an A on the two different sounds that can be produced.

So in the south of England, you have to sounds, for example, buff the ah sound on trap That sound So are an so words with our things.

Like bath, laugh, glass, afternoon dance, etcetera.

Now the at sound, you've got a man hand.

Japan, Pastor Harry.

So you have two different sounds.

But in the north of England, there isn't that distinction.

So you only have one sound.

That's the sound you wouldn't use an r sound.

So with words that take are in the south of England that are in the north of England.

So it would be bath laugh afternoon.

Ask glass dance his example from a really famous British So Coronation street, which is set in Manchester in the north of England.

So they're gonna be using a northern English accent.

Let's have a listen.

See if you can identify that sound.

Oh, is difficult to ask his mom.

All right.

Oh, did you hear that?

Ask now, in the south of England, that would be osk.

Okay.

Ah, that are sound.

So in the north in the south are oh, physical cancer.

Ask his mom.

All right.

Oh, don't worry.

Now let's look an example from EastEnders, where they have a southern English accent and see if you can tell the difference.

You can tell me.

Oh, well, okay.

It's a explosive.

Seen this one.

But she said the word can't.

Can't.

She's using the R sound there in the north of England.

That would be back.

You can't Can't.

But in the south of England.

Can't.

You can't tell me.

Oh, okay.

Let's go back to Coronation Street in the north of England.

In here.

Another example.

Always been pushed back to this afternoon.

Okay.

Did you hear that afternoon?

Afternoon?

Show that that sound in the south of England?

That would be afternoon.

Right after I was been pushed back to this afternoon.

Before we continue, guys, I just want to remind you that I have a brand new book coming out really soon.

It's a guide to British English and to British culture.

So we look at things like these kinds of accents.

I teach you the differences between Courtney Accent received pronunciation, mank, union scouts.

I also have a dictionary with all the British slang that I know.

We also have Kourtney rhyming slang.

There's loads of cultural information as well.

Like the best TV shows to watch to learn English things that that I can't wait for you guys to see it when it's available.

There will be a link in the description below this video.

Okay, the second big distinction between the North and the south of England is the sound.

What are you So the two words that we used to sort of show?

This is a putt on put putt and put yet to different sounds there and the in the south of England.

You have that difference you have.

Those two sounds are a putt.

Put it in the north of England.

The accents in the north don't have that distinction.

It's just the look sound.

Oh, so let's go through the south of England of what those words would sound like.

So with sound, you have put good would sugar etcetera and then you have the R sound CF Putt shut nut sundae.

Summer run there in the north of England, those words putts, nuts run.

It's not that our it's should be put looked Run Suma Sunday shoot and so one.

Okay, let's go back to Coronation Street and find example off this sound night.

We'll give me 10 minutes while I'm going fresh note.

Okay.

That book sound book in the South of England.

It's up, but the north of England.

Oh, right.

Well, give me 10 minutes while ago in fresh note.

Okay, Let's hear example in EastEnders, which is from the south of England.

Listen to the sub.

You could leave at that front door, or you can choose a window.

Okay?

He used the weight, son s o n son.

Now in the north of in that sun.

So now, But in the south of England, Son, listen to the sun.

You could leave at that front door, or you can choose a window.

And in fact, if we go back to that first example we used from EastEnders, she says Mother at the end, mother that much in the north of England.

Mother, Mother.

So mother, Mother, you can't tell me.

Oh, okay.

Another one.

Love, love, love.

In the south of England, Loof in the north of England.

There'll be plenty of time for that.

Okay, so those are the two big differences and are on the up.

And, uh, now, the third big difference that you have between the north himself is vocabulary.

Now, there are regional words throughout England, of course.

So you if you are listening to someone speaking and they use a certain word.

Sometimes that word will tell you where they are from away from the north of England or the south of England.

And even within that, are they from Liverpool away from Manchester?

Are they from London?

Are they from Newcastle?

So some big examples that we have in the north of England lunch is called Dinner.

On the last meal of the day is called T, where is in the south of England?

Lunch is lunch on the last minute of the day is dinner.

So if you hear someone saying, What do you want for tea?

That indicates that they're from the north of England, just from that choice of vocabulary.

Now, another interesting differences in terms of endearment.

In the north of England, you might be called Duke or Love or Pet or Chuck.

If you walk into, say, a bakery and you ask for a sandwich or some bread, they might say, All right, love.

All right, Duke.

Alright, took All right, Pet, where's those words?

You might hear them in the South, but you're probably more likely to be called Love or darling somewhere.

That right darling, I love something more on those lines, so those can be some differences as well.

Another example might be if someone says right, Me old China.

Alright, Me old China.

That's an example of company rhyming slang, so that suggests that they're probably from London or at least the south of England.

Now me old China.

Courtney rhyming slang China Plate What is played?

Throwing with mate.

So meal China is my mates, my friend.

So some says, right, me old China, They sitting there saying All right, mate, now But if you hear someone say our kids are kid, what does that mean?

Well, in Manchester, particularly our kid is another way of saying like my younger brother or sister.

For example, if they said our kids just got a job, Google that would tell you that their brother or sister has got a job at Google so that that word that phrase tells me that there probably from the north of England, probably from Manchester.

So vocabulary is a really good indication of West.

Someone is from within England.

Okay, it's time for a quiz.

I'm gonna show you a little clip off someone speaking, and I want you to decide.

Are they speaking with the Northern English accent or a Southern English accent?

Good luck.
