@skyesareblue Thanks :) it's no different to how I love the way Americans sound or speak, it's very different. Am that used to hearing the way my people speak that over there is something I don't hear in person every day.
@Eellenne lol aye, it's damn true and damn right :) it's a lot of the way I speak and although some people may judge me for it, call me a ned for what they will, I wouldn't speak differently. Am slang spoken like yourself. Think what folk seem to get confused between is 'neds' and 'Glaswegian slang' lol :D
@clairelovesoreos Aye, we certainly do speak joined up and in our own way. So people can understand why us Scots would talk slower and more proper for foreigners to understand us. We do have a lot of slang where words are chopped in half lol
@Melbourne619 I don't at all pal, I live at home with my own parents, I do mostly live off my own money though. But if I were to have my own place, there are certain flats you can rent in certain places for about £400 a month, job wise? Part time jobs mostly anything that'll be affordable. Be aware that no job is safe, which is why I wouldn't take that risk, I'd probably end up with debts because of it, so my wise option is staying at home for the time being.
@chrislovespillz That's just it Chris, naturally in Scotland's terms varies in context, a person speaking naturally is how they normally speak. The way I speak is the way I do in that dialect, the only reason I haven't spoken like that in most vidz is cause maste people wouldn't understand it. But a do get around to explaining the structured sentences so they understand it better.
@ScottMcK9 am fae greenock which is alot like glesga and it sounds like alot a ppl doon here put on there accents n when a wis in glesga a herd the same thing, ppl puttin on accents
@chrislovespillz That's exactly what most the neds do where a live. The way I speak is natural to me, but I feel nobody would understand me if I spoke like that on camcorder, plus you know yourself mate, other people will judge you for the way you speak, it's sad, but it's always been the case. Like if you grew up in the east end o' Glesga, you're labelled as scum if you speak like myself. I'd know that, because of the certain looks I get off the type that are very proper spoken...
@chrislovespillz Thing is, I don't even judge them, am not that way inclined, am a true east ender, am down to earth, how I was brought up, don't stick my nose up at people. You go from the east side to the west and you'll see the difference alright, it's amazing what money does to people.
I feel the same way Scott. That is what I wanted as well. Just speak in front of the camera, and it would probably be easier with pals. True. But it was truly poetic. Again, thank you!
@Thecrazyeditor lol could never do that, I don't think my friends would even like being recorded in front of camera, that's just it, but at least I can help translate things.
@Thecrazyeditor That's just it, it won't cause that many problems, it just means that anyone from Scotland that knows this type of dialect, the first thing that comes to their mind is, 'Scum,' if not, 'Ned.' It'd prove my point that certain folk don't know what a ned sounds like from Glasgow.
Us Glaswegians are often looked down upon as scum, or the east end because of how we speak or this reputation? Don't know.
OMG I am such a LOSER. I couldn't understand any of that. LOL "What do you want to do?" And...something about going to the park? And a banana boat?
I could understand why it would be hard for you to do a video like this. It's more natural when you're talking to your friends, whereas the camera requires a bit of thought and it doesn't come as freely.
Thank you for doing this! Wow, I never even expected you to even take my suggestion seriously, so the fact that you did is greatly appreciated. :)
@Yazzelle lol no problem at all, like I say, it's one of those things that cause my pals speak the same banter as me, you tend to find things roll more naturally, it just goes with the flow. Whereas when it comes to thinking it up and reading it out on paper or whatever, it is perhaps more difficult. I could never write out a paragraph like that and speak that fast naturally. When you speak to your pals, you just know what you're going to respond with, so there's no hesitancy lol
@ScottMcK9 Also, context has a lot to do with understanding. For example, in your sentences you ask if a seat is taken (is tha' seat took?). Now if you're just hearing this in strictly audio then you might not understand. But if a Glaswegian came up to you in a theatre and said the same thing, well, any foreigner would probably get it.
And aye, I understood pretty much everything; I have too many Weegie friends. :-D And now I can add bevy to my vocabulary. That was a new one. :-)
@hathi444 Aye more or less, it's all about the situation and moment that you're in, that's what largely helps you understand certain things. Really all does depend upon what they're saying and where they're saying it in what situation. And as I said to my friend Heather lol when someone's been exposed they have the advantage that they understand, someone outside perhaps not lol
@Yazzelle ...like I say, that more or less is how us east enders in Glasgow speak lol you can understand why I don't speak like that. If people in England struggle, imagine someone who doesn't speak English as a first language lol they'd think you're speaking Japanese or Gaelic lol :D
This was posted on my birthday:) and i love how u speak ... its beautiful:)
