  • @TeddyDickSmith hell ye too right cant beat abit of yorkshire

  • Ere is it wrong that my college student takes the piss out my northerner accent only 'cos he's from London e_e

  • I speak a type of English that has sharp consonants, and every letter is pronounced. Therefore I found your softer speech hard to understand and it would take me some time to adjust.

  • Here's a good en: tintintin..:D Some general exmples: Shouldn't = shunt doesn't = dunt round = raahnd about = abaat shout = shaat brown = braahn warm = waahm cold = cowd myself = misen yourself = thisen out = aaht nose = nuwaz night = neet haven't = ant anything = owt nothing = nowt going to = gunna going = guwin take = tek cuwat or coyt = coat gerrim = get him Loads more but these are just some of the Yorkshire examples that I use.
  • @Canislupess How often do you actually say 'thissen' in daily speech?

  • @Warrosquyoake Hmmm, hard to say but pretty often lol.

  • The weird swallowing noise is a glottal stop....used a lot in Yorkshire accent. I'm from Rotherham and speak quite broad for somebody my age:P I say things like Ruwad for road and cluwas for clothes. I also say theeya and weeya for there and where and fluwa for floor and duwa for door. I also say wi = with and wo = was. The shek = shake and mek = make also applies to me, lol. There is also summat = something. Along with reyt, there's also feyt = fight..

  • summit=something

  • @Parmesana summat not summit

  • its not

    "kecks"

    its "kegs" = pants

  • @Youshless kecks is from the hebrew language and tends to be used in the Greater Manchester regions , kegs is the yorkshire version

  • @gordongate I know kecks too and I'm from Yorkshire...we use that here as well as kegs...moreso than kegs actually...at least round here in Rotherham. I heard it used more when I was a kid than now.

Schools should learn them kids proper Yorkshire speak, so's we don't loose ower 'eritage.

    And not everyone says tarn some people just say tarn most of what she is saying is very much like Barnsley which is really broad unlike Sheffield and Rotherham.

    Also leed's accent is totally different to all 3 of those.

On'y foke wat wants t' sound posh think it start wi' an ache. It dun't. It's ACHE. Even ' queen zez ache,cos that its name.

  • that wierd swallowy noise is a glotal stop. A  T , missing ot turned in to a D.

  • that is really bizarre that you say 'sen?' in place of 'self'...very germanic; same with the canst thing.

  • 'sno' that bizzar pal, th't we se "sen' ''n' it sowns ger-manic. Tha sal find that thiz plenty o' germanisms. Wier does that think thee cum frum then?Eh?It's cos, in t'ownden daiz, afuwer , an' after ' Norman con-cwest, most o't north, wern't well rooled, and thi kept on wi t'owd ways o' taa'kin', that the'd allas 'ad, ever since the'd cum. ower, them thi-er Angles 'a' Saxons. Vi-kinz. tha nu-wers? Sintrestin' anall, that we still use ' fami'lyer form. Thee ,n, Thou ,n Thine. That' same anall

  • @itolduwnicame08

    Not that bizarre.English is a Germanic language, so many archaic forms exist in regional speech .The Yorkshire dialect itself is largely Scandinavian .

  • Comment removed

  • Im from yorkshire i have a really strong accent AND I LOVE IT

  • yeah i live very close to settle.how about you. you a yorkshire lad/ las?

  • I'm from Nottingham, we are in that linguistic void between the souther peasents and the northern people. What would you call Nottingham in regard to accent? Northern or 'Oliver Twist peasent fairy' Southern?

  • in barnsley

    we call specs

    gebss haha

    and we ebeva se word THE

    haha

  • im from lancashire n im wondrein ... is there any difference between yorkshire n lancashire accents?

  • are you being serious?!!!!theres a huge difference, i live on the n yorks lancs border nr clitheroe and settle lancashire is totaly different, u lot pronounce your R's alot more where as we dont and west yorks are just inbred!!! :D

  • oi im from west yorkshire, n think i have a cool accent

  • corse there is, carnt rli explain the difference but the yorkshire accent is the best in the world;)

  • yeah i think so too, been from west yorkshire lol

  • I have always been fascinated by regional accents of the Americas and now I find this and i am getting into it. love hearing different people speak!

  • so,get thissen darn tarn&get sum chips from chip oil,sithee

  • As for using 'nay' as 'no', my Dad (ISheffield) uses 'nayow', instead.

    Regional dialects and accents are continually been watered down, and I can imagine we'll all be speaking the same in another 100 years or so. Well done on the vid,

  • nayow for no??! How bizzare

  • Something I've notticed here in The States is that we've created a universal American accent.. It's now very rare to hear any thick regional accents here in the Untied States... I live in Dallas, Texas and you'd be hard pressed to find anyone with a (TeXaS accent) ..... So your not alone

  • When I lived in England I was surprised by the huge differences in accents. I mean there are no tall mountains or rivers dividing people for centuries so people were never seperated . Instead they invent the differences because they are proud to go to one pub instead of another, to live in Manchester instead of Leeds, to be in England instead of France or Germany. Its very local minded. Cities are only a few hours apart and you can walk from house to house across the country. There is no nature.

  • Thats because there was no railroad or rather railroad culture in England, unlike in the US where the mindset is more of a border and frontiersman type.

  • i speak like that, im not old and im one of the only people i know who speaks like that, i know people who instead of 'no' say 'nerr' as with other words that sound like no, however this is only with women, its really strange.

  • I'm from Sheffield and as Nay got developed into Nayow - you wont find many people my age, 20, who say Nayow - We'd pronounce it more like Naaow. Not prouncing it with an Ay anymore, more like a flat a with an ow on the end. Actually like Naeow. I got ridiculed at Uni for saying that. Most people my age say words like: sure, during, matured - in a generic English way as apposed to previous generations when it was more like shoe-a, dyouring, mat-chu-erd. It's defiantly getting watered down.

  • ooo ee bah gum, yorkshire accents are so sexy! Any lady with a yorkshire accent can say anything to me and it instantly turns me on

  • If you want to give a couple of 8 year-olds a thrill, you could film a bit of Martha or Ben Weatherstaff or Dickon speaking "broad" in _The Secret Garden._ I can't even tell you how much they would love it and treasure it! :)

    If you want to hear a nasty corn saw Iowa accent, I'll return the favor, with or without a book. Any book set in Kansas (Wizard of Oz) or Oklahoma (Grapes of Wrath) would be in my accent.

  • Thank you for making this video! I live in Michigan, USA, the state that looks like a mitten, right up under Ontario, Canada. Our bed time book for our twins right now is _The Secret Garden_, and I'm looking up sounds and sights from Yorkshire to show them. My daughter's eating the story up (loving it). My son pretends to be manfully not listening, but he'll burst out with comments about Dickon's way with animals or Colin's back, so I know he's really into it. :)

  • im frum barnsley n id rather speak like i do thn a fuckin dee dar , wtf with puttin D on every bastard word ?? n yes i love all the words tht no other fucker nos , luv it XD fk ur lot

  • Ayup lass! Nah then, tha's dun us all proud wi't breakdahn o't Yorkshire dialect, even if tha dusn't ave a clew wheer most o't words come from. Nivver mind eh, it all cums aht in't wash, as me mum used ter say.

    Oh, and you forgot 'mither' (or is it 'meither') - to complain, as in 'Gie-ooer mitherin, yer daft bugger'.

    Ah'll si thi.

    Actually, living outside Yorkshire, I'd forgotten 'mardy' - thanks for that.

  • I knew you were from Sheffield. I recognized the accent. :)

    She's not annoying. :(

  • The greeting 'ay up' for 'hello' is used as far south as northampton where i live but she mentioned the word 'mardy' for havin a tantrum which is also commonly used around leicester.

  • You wouldn't "mek something" you would "mek summat" ya daft bint.

  • @macaronicheezplez I'd love to hear a lancashire accent but i can't find any on youtube. :(

    and i like the Yorkshire accent very much. :)

    I'm from Ohio by the way. (America)

  • @Kelsie154 Peter Kay has a typical Bolton / Bury accent, same with the late great and very much missed Fred Dibnah. Jane Horrocks is another actress with a strong lancashire accent.

    You cant get more typical Lancashire example than these.

  • @macaronicheezplez hell yea I`m with you on that one!

  • @macaronicheezplez

    WRONG!!!!

    Lancashire is the worst county ever!

    Yorkshire is the best county, Lancashire must die!

    that is all.

  • i like the yorkshire accent i think its cwl:)

  • j4m3zi...

  • ok i see what your tryin to do , what you need to do is cover local differences. look at barnsley it has an accent and words all ov its own . north yorkshire could have things people say 10 mile awy they dont . you dont give many examples . oh and your accent is so posh!!

  • To speak prober English watch THE TWO RONNIES now. Goto my profile watch.

  • since when do we call specs bins u giner

  • lovely accent (Y) i have one similar to yours coz i'm from bolton, but not for long coz i'm moving to canada ;D

  • you refer to your glasses as 'bins'(?) my first thought was Ben as in Ben Franklin who invented the first pair of bifocals... Not sure if theres a connection, just my own musings. lol lovely accent btw, rly wish I had one myself

  • the trouble is, yorkshire is so large it's difficult to come up with 'isms' for the whole. i'm from north yorkshire (middlesbrough) and i never say 'sen' or 'ginner' or a few others (have heard of them). but i do say things like 'oway' (NOT the geordie 'owee' i might add :P ) but this video covers a lot of good ones :D like 'ta', 'kegs' and 'ere' :)

  • Yeahhh good old Middlesbrough =D

  • Your accent seems quite soft to me.......seems to have a southern twinge to it.

  • yaaksher tea, like tea yewst to be.

    weak and cost toow bludy much

  • 3:34 - Really? Many people in Australia tend to say "Ta" for "Thank you" as well! The Australian dialect may have got that from yours lol. It's really interesting to notice things like that, isn't it?

    Thank you very much for this, it was very useful.

  • Sorry, I meant 3:54, not 3:34. I don't know how that happened lol

  • hahaha like mardy bum from the arctic monkeys. im learning so much

    xxx

  • yep they are. they kick ass

  • i think its a lovely accent. makes me wonder where us americans got our accents from...do you know? like where in the uk we coulda got our accent from?

  • I always thought that american accents sound a bit like the Welsh or Irish accents. I have known a variant of a Scottish accent to sound very american-like.

  • really? cool! hey thanks for the reply i appreciate it. :)

  • "Last of the Summer Wine" is pure class.

    Do they still speak like that in Yorkshire?

    dint even really realise we ad such a strong accent. =P

  • Examples of Yourkshireisms:

    "We's mi wod?" "dunno tin tin tin!" = "Where is my money?" "I don't know, it isn't in the tin"

    Yorksher, definition: To be smart, sencible, e.g doant try tae pull t'wool ovver me een, ahs Yorksher too! = Don't try to decieve me, where do you think I come from Lancashire!

  • yorkshire's shite!!

  • Im from huddersfield to. haha. and yeah your right. GEMS(y)

  • Gio? U mean give up,pet,as for tutting sound,the terminology is gutteral.Now shut yer face and gerroff to bed.

  • haha.

  • I'm from Yorkshire too, (near Ponte')... and we call glasses (spectacles)... "Gigs". Aye, he's rate, tha din't use "Thi" "Thee" "Tha" "Thy'ne" and "Thy". Thannors! Thy accent's local. Where abart's tha frum lass?

  • I've never heard of glasses been bins before then again i actually come from Cumbria and lancashire there's whole different sayings there especially in barrow... Altough i'm not a true Barrovian Thank God! haha.

  • Be careful you don't want the locals after you! :)

  • "Bins" is short for "Binoculars" - it's quite commonly used in London as well I think.

    I really must do a video response to this and explain some lovely Norfolkisms :)

  • You should i'd like to see that. I norfolk is a fantastic accent!

  • The weird "tutin" noise is t' yorkshire glottal stop!

  • ;) I know :)

  • Hehe, I'm from Sheffield so I do a lot of those. Especially the whole dropping 'h' and 't'! You didn't mention 'thee' and 'thy'! Never heard of the glasses word.. that's a new one to me.

  • I could have kept going forever... i have a tendency to ramble on and on i decided as most people knew thee and thy i could skip that one.

  • Not one Brit has been able to tell me what all of you think of American accents.

    Basically, a woman with a genuine British accent raises her like six points to any American man.

    But we're stupid.

  • I love a "good" american accent especially when they're being over dranatic like that guy on polices wildest video (or whatever it's called) his accent is hot!

  • His name is John Bunnell

  • dat wo proper reyt a tell thi
