How To Speak Like A New Yorker

[returnofthekingxd]

that's not how to speak like a new yorker... new yorkers are like this:

" Yo dude! Move your fucking ass! "

[theatregeek69321]

Sounds more like Bugs Bunny lol :) More like what u would hear a Boston accent sound like nowadays ( Kind of)

[squiggleworks9]

I don't why people are laughing. I actually have friends (I'm 30) who sound like this. What people typically call a New York accent, are to me regional NY accents; typically Staten Island, some parts of Queens and Long Island. I don't think I have a NY accent until people from other places point it out when I say things like 'coffee' or 'August'. I have a friend I met in college who has the strongest NY accent I've ever heard and she grew up 10- 15 miles from me.

[916ajp]

nope

[omgcheddercheese]

:D

[OhMissBrutal]

@omgcheddercheese haha! XD

[omgcheddercheese]

LOL @ 1:06 laughing my head off! he looks like a frog!!!!!!!

[misscarlyyxoxo]

im laughing so hard

[XY7sniper]

yu got buitiful voice right. IF YOU EVER COME TO NEW YOURK AND SOUND LIKE THAT THAT, I WILL CRIPPLE YOU(joking) If anyone shows up in new york sounding like that i will say to speak like a goddamn brit or everyone will think you are mocking them, also tweety bird will beat you up. POTATWIZZLE

[KNEZOV5]

i always thought that was just a american jewish accent, like that guy from requiem for a dream harry goldenfarb, or seinfeld or whatever?

[iMerkedProductions]

waaayyy overdone

[okjoek1]

Ney York is a massive melting pot of accents and nationalities and they've changed over time such as when immigration spikes like back in the industrial era where all the immigrants came through ellis island. The evidence is all around (ofcoource I've never been to the city part of NY) with places like "little Italy" and "China town" and in the smaller cities like Syracuse, Auburn and Buffalo.

[meggiepieisgood]

eh not bad. But a little overdone. my fav. thing to say is coffee.

[victoriacejas]

el acento de jersey shore jajaj

[minciNashu]

Way to be a fuckin nerd rofl. It's how it sounds, doesnt mean this guy is pulling his off exactly, nor does it mean the voice actors do with theirs.

[minciNashu]

Way to be a fuckin nerd rofl.

[alexplayero]

Lol its called a Brooklyn accent not a new York accent.

[SecretQT1]

reminds me of that dude from Big Bang Theory

[mj0sefs0n]

Like he said, its' really old-fashioned...this kind of accent was already dying out by the 1950s--AND it's super-exaggerated. It may have still been possible to hear some old people as late as the early 1990s who still said "boid" (for bird) "Toidy-Toid and Toid" (for 33rd and 3rd) --or "terlet" (for toilet) and "berl" (for boil), but nobody in NYC sounds like that anymore.

On top of that, though, he's really overdoing it. It would have been a bit subtler.

[tommsr25]

@mj0sefs0n

My father-in-law actually does say terlet. He grew up in East New York. But yeah, this guy really stretched it out a bit much.

[mj0sefs0n]

@tommsr25

My grandfather also said "woik",sometimes and also said "terlet", often reversing the "oi" and "er" sounds.. (He lived in Brownsville, close to East NY, but also in Middletown Orange County, NY) This was a working-class type, early 20th century Jewish, Italian and Irish NY accent. Art Carney as Norton and Caroll O'Connor as Archie Bunker also spoke that way.

[gobbergirls123]

this is more brooklyn,, not really new yorker.

[SchizoFilms]

@gobbergirls123 Brooklyn is a borough of New York, I don't understand your point.

[baddestbarbii]

You might wanna work on this one brah...

[Mottahead]

Steps to do a New York accent.....

Wait a minute!

Why would anyone in his/her sound mind want to speak in a New York accent?

Even New Yorkers, given the option, would rather speak proper English (which is........................ good question).

[GreenToXiCProduction]

New York accent?

-From Joseph currently living in Brooklyn

[RamirezRoyalty]

LMAO i said "Are green cards brighter" and this guys right, all these years and it took this video to hear the accent :D

[63martin25]

thats an old time chicago accent like from the untouchables

[mj0sefs0n]

@63martin25

You might be thinking of Robert DeNiro's accent from the Untouchables. deNiro was playing Al Capone. Capone was born and raised in Brooklyn before he became head of the Chicago mob, so DeNiro (also a New Yorker) played him with a NY accent--NOT a Chicago accent.

[minciNashu]

Family Guy accent.

[mj0sefs0n]

@minciNashu

No, Peter and Lois Griffin from "Family Guy" have Rhode Island/Massachussets accents

[krillin876]

wadda , lawnguyland, vocka , cawfee

[krillin876]

i am from ny and everyone here is latino of chinese

[abcdefh1992]

@krillin876 You must live in Queens.

[ellegirl620]

This sounds more like New Jersey than anything.

[mattyoc3]

how to speak like tweety bired

[Jmakuta7]

Yeah this is like, old fashioned, most new york accents aren't THAT brutal, i have the accent i'm from New York hahaha

[annekehoe]

@catdogawsome it's just you.

[TheMetalChick]

For everyone who is complaining they have never heard any of this here in NY, go watch an episode of All in the Family. This stuff is real, its just- AS HE CLEARLY SAID, old fashioned.

[catdogawsome]

Is it just me or does this "oldschool" new york accent sound like a stereotypical irish accent

[krillin876]

@catdogawsome  old school new yorkers are irish, like James Cagney. There are about 10 times more Irish - Americans than citizens of Ireland

[missdarcy321]

wow this guy is pretty amazing!!

[readme60]

sorry but no one here talks like this. funny hearing you do this though haha

[iN31L]

@readme60 @daemonp @krismolly178 @LaGuardia44729 - Did you read the top comments? Did you even watch the video? He clearly states, this is an old fashioned accent. He then says it is something you'd find in those old gangster films. He then acknowledges that you will find very few people speaking this way. He KNOWS no one talks like that. Your stupidity is beyond me.

[sw201444]

38 people are new yorkers..

[daemonp]

NOT EVEN CLOSE!

[krismolly178]

i live in new york and nobody talks like this....

[LaGuardia44729]

No one in new york talks like that anymore. I've lived in NYC all my life. It's kinda funny to here someone do this though

[FishingtheSkyxd]

@LaGuardia44729 same, but this is more for old-fashioned new york, like around mid 1900s. you hear it a lot in Looney Tunes

[Mazurka1001]

'Oy veh' will probably be the most useful in that hell hole. ;

[AaronRyyder]

"Probably not as common today, but it does still exist with some speakers".

Do you guys know how to listen to an introduction? He does pretty well.

[jengkiesville]

you wanna speak like a true new yorker? start swearing like a sailor

[elvaelvirababe]

born and raised in Jersey, sounds nothing like it.

[Violinistabeta]

I'd really like to speak like that!

[loreosman92]

brits suck at NY accents



[kyle6flukey]

1:27 Nyeh? Brooklyn Rage!

[iaresimon]

jersey shore

[Orangemongoose1]

This is for actors, and he said "old-fashioned" are you twats even paying attention

[coolstorysayitagain]

You suck at this accent mate.

[MaiyaandSkyluarBABV]

I'm from NY and this is a horrible interpretation o_o

[MrTwhispers]

Fuck Pennsylvania

[sk8swimmer82]

really the only people that talk like this in new york are usually from the bronx

[tiki2188]

ha! As someone who's lived right outside New York must say this is pretty good. I like this guy, he doesn't just go from TV/movies/beliefs but actual linguistics.

Also he realized no one actually says new "joisey" ! He's the man!

[Lunerk]

Steps to do a New York accent

1: Curse a lot.

2: Grab your balls.

3: Repeat.

[SecretService80]

@Lunerk HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! I love you!

[UrbanButterflyy]

he sounds like Buddy from cake boss..



[00cipher]

I'm embarrassed for him.

[IamAChairman]

@TheClcousins no it doesn't, not at all. :/

[chickas54]

you should do a latin accent

[ulyssesailor]

skip to 0:28

[CaptainAmerica322]

Gotta be honest, I've been watching all your videos, and your videos all impressed me until this one...Haha. Might want to visit ny a few more times.

[phillips4174]

do a greek accent

[POAFA]

New York accent for me is Italian American English. B)

[marinesproudsis32]

it sounds like an exaggerated brooklyn accent

[adgw1423]

ugliest accent in all of english. 

[dericpettigrew]

This guy thinks he is Jimmy Cagney. Try speaking like this in NY and he would get his ass kicked. In the immortal words of Alan Hansen: verry pooooor.

[Chrisjahahhan]

I din't realize New York was in Australia...

[TheRamosOnline]

@Chrisjahahhan Listen to his Australian accent. Very different from this one.

I'm British yet I'd say he hit the Old New York accent dead on.

[AFatGamerNerd]

Long Island has it's own accent.

[BrooklynBackwardz]

Go Fock Yahself

[mengfoley]

he already stated in his video he's trying to emulate an older new yorker accent which might not even exist now, but only in movies. Serious facepalms to all those who didn't even bother to listen.

[JOSEPHINNEWJERSEY]

Wow bad. Sooooo, so, so bad. No one from the Metro NY area has spoken with this accent since the 1940s or even 30s! He is trying to teach a very low class awful NY accent that I am happy to say is mostly gone.

[jacklanting]

I already live in New York and have a New York accent, do I get praise for that?

[themeontheshow]

Sounds like hes in a mafia

[DerFeindr]

Steps to do a New York accent

1: Move to New York

2: Wait

[dotchoo]

@DerFeindr 1. Watch Seinfeld. Or The Nanny. 2.That's it.

[lovestef7]

@DerFeindr You got it bro.

[comradeH]

@DerFeindr uuhh.. what?

[Teksuo]

@DerFeindr BAH HA HA HA HA HA!

[poizunman75]

@DerFeindr 3. ????

4. Profit

[BiggestLittleM0nsteR]

0.01

[MegaSammiGurl]

Ahaha you sound like a Looney Tunes character in this one. xD 

[swampygoose]

The only New Yorkers who speak like this live under the Coney Island boardwalk.

[Clazzy8]

Can you do how to speak with a black accent?

[AngelXOsaze]

@Clazzy8

There are different black accents.

Theres ebonics.

Northern ebonic, southern black, Californian black an so on. Don't try to generalize us friend.

Like this guy did with the New York accent. Most New Yorkers in fact speak with a general American accent. That accent was more of a white Brooklyn accent in some parts.

[Wafledor]

Most New-Yorkers have a general American accent. This accent is usually found in Brooklyn.

[Fiennes13]

dude you can't do a new yorker accent

[Metaltherebel92]

this accent is hilarious

[kimmycakesss]

no one ever gets this accent right. here's a tip from a native new yorker: use your regular accent. we all sound different.

[cubaricanezz]

Born and raised in New York and I never heard anyone talk like this -.-

[newyorkbabyboy]

@cubaricanezz I am from Astoria and I never heard this either.

[grili8]

scroll down the page fast and see at the right side of it the accent guy's hands awkwardly flirting each other

[HonoraryBuddhist]

He sounds like Bugs Bunny lol

[bobbymapp]

watch the three stooges for this accent. especially Curly, he exagerrated the accented a lot.

[saint4God]

I did detect a bit of Long Island and Bostonian in there (not saying completely), but mostly reminds me of the old black and white gangster movies. The New Yorker I hung out (hun gout) with used the 'F' word for every other word so I don't recognize the accent without it.

[silliouette]

i love this accent

[Labek123]

Wait.. I like In Albany Why Am I searching this?

[lolgenios]

yea, no this doesn't really sound like a NY accent lol.... it sounds more like a boston/italian idk LOL :)

[rayallenrocks28]

Search up rayallenrocks28 watch the all black vid

[hello3691000]

DUH ... he said in the beginning of the video the accent is from OLD GANGSTER MOVIES not really how people talk today.

[PrettyTiaF]

no uh uh this guy kinda sucks. he sounds australian

[halo123spartan]

yeah this is deff an older accent now its kinda lost we still have an accent just not as strong

but i do say cawfee becaus ethats the right way to say it lol

[VelaToNorma7]

BOOO YOU SUCK

[Tracker4063]

the only 2 accents i know from america are the ones that sound a bit like a dublin accent and texas lol, see how british i am

[blizzardtube11]

O and A, that is New York accent

[zacthebold]

I'm no expert and I'm from the south, but this sounds more like Boston than New York. I worked with this guy who talked like that from Boston. I swear for 3 weeks I thought he had an injury to his tongue. He dressed like a redneck, cowboy boots, big belt buckle, trucker hat. What was I supposed to think? He talked just like little bear from sesame street. At the time I didn't know that was a legit accent, I thought it was supposed to be baby talk.

[NeonGummyBearz]

sounds a little like bugs bunny when he says "hwe sian du foist voice poifectly"

[deadbolt9019]

sounds like a mix of subtle boston with a mix of long island.

[DementedMunchkin]

My mom moved around a lot as a kid, but has a bit of a new york accent. Luckily, though, it's not too strong. But enough to the point that I make fun of her saying "cawwfeee" XD.

You see, I live in new jersey (unfortunately), but I also don't have a strong new jersey accent. I dont say "hey, weahh aah thuhh cawwwfeeeee mixxasss?" I say it pretty normal, with a slight accent.

Once again, thank GOD.

[Toddthedidger]

Even Americans from other states can't do a good New York accent.

[Liam2621]

I went to new York on holiday once and picked u the accent. I was only there for a week but I still have it years later, my friends think I'm crazy but I like it.

[ColourToYourWorld]

please for the love of GOD dont even attempt to do a philly accent...

[BFFbleachfansforever]

this reminds me of the rubberbandits

[TagRation]

@dansvidco You apparently have no idea what sarcasm is. I thought it was pretty obvious.

[serbianpupil]

In the beginning he sounds like a gangster or a rapper, lol.

[SurgeRuiz]

Im from New York and we dont speak like that. Especially in the Bronx.Im about to flame this bum ass

[ivegot99cra]

@SurgeRuiz Well if you listened this is the olden time New York accsent

[SurgeRuiz]

Im from New York and we say nigga

[TagRation]

@dansvidco That's surprising. I always thought people from Russia spoke like New Yorkers.

[dat3tree]

omg u sound like emler fud, fail

[dankwarth]

@dansvidco - That's a bit rich coming from you. You as an Russian are the right person to speak about NY accent????

[dylanandcian]

@dansvidco CLAP CLAP ITS THE NEW YORK ACCENT

[rocknjak]

i must say, it sounds like a boston accent.

[Cuse149]

@rocknjak That is NOT a boston accent. Bostonians don't have an OY sound to things. For ex: NYers would say BOHSTON while Bostonians say BAHston

[quentinlacrimosa]

@rocknjak Boston and New York accents are linked to each other in some aspects

[fiendishing]

@rocknjak They are kind of the same.

[werewolf327]

@rocknjak No, NO it's not. I'm from Boston, and that is NOT a Boston accent. It's also not a New York accent. It sounds like a shitty version of a New Jersey accent, like Meowth from Pokemon.

[UtatanePikoChama]

@rocknjak Boston accent? They have accents? I havent really heard one talk, I'm from there but moved to Canada when I was 3, they said I had an accent and couldnt undertand me x.x

[mbgirl5]

Thumbs up if you are from New York, and just noticed you talk like this!

[naynaydoll]

Yea my mom has an annoying new york accent sometimes i like to correct her because it sounds funny like her r words but i love the new york accent

[justinjacques766]

lol italian american accent

[ilovelu]

You wanna talk like a New Yorker ? Watch The Sopranos

[sense321]

stop the shit!! you sound like daffy duck! and no we do not fuckin tawk like that!!!

[Dumbmajor9696]

lol wut

[ceeeim]

I love how wrong he is

[Melthornal]

@ceeeim Except he isn't at all.

[ceeeim]

@Melthornal As a New Yorker myself very very little people talk like this, and i've lived all over New York City and all out in Upstate. So I can ensuingly tell you, he is wrong

[Melthornal]

@ceeeim He is doing the OLD New York accent. NOT the current New York accent. Try to pay attention.

[BlazeWyvern]

BROOKLYN RAAAAGE!

[dtihkse]

new yoike :)

[gabeamccoy]

I find these videos to be somewhat hit and miss. some are absolutely exceptional though

[Aerosol95]

LOL this is an italian new York accent

[XSolarPieX]

Sounds New Joisy to me.

[TheAfricanKing55]

@XSolarPieX We don't talk like that here. Everyone from Jersey Shore are from New York.

[BrianWellness]

WHAT in the world is this? people dont talk like this..maybe like 100 yrs ago, but why bother with this? People should just be aiming for more like Joe Pesci or sopranos and this sounds nothing like that.

[TheNamesNotJen]

This is a pretty good Boston accent.

[maoreme]

i'm from new york and i never heard anyone with that accent

[antidecisive1]

There is more than one accent in New York. This video captures bits and pieces of various accents.

[therealjuanbomb5]

here is how tospeak like a new yorker in two steps

1.talk very fast

2.talk like your yelling from a sky scraper

[wwwBixxTk]

No much easier just put a bitch behind every third wort ...

[Heatherstar27]

Haha, this sounds like Newsies! :D

[THEeveryLASTinitial]

I'm a New Yorker. I don't agree with everything he is teaching in the specific video if accuracy is concerned, but i'm not judging the guy. He knows a lot more about accents than i do, just not the one i'm best at. Either way, good job.

[MrHarry9000]

am from jamaica queens new york

[Kkyyrruu]

You guys are idiots. Yeah it's "old-fashioned" and doesn't exist anymore but there are actors out there that would have to learn this for a film. Cause those DO still exsist. His job is teaching actors accents. Not to teach regualr people to walk around with a fake voice. Shut the hell up.

[trendon]

I like your videos, I really do. However, this one needs to taken down because nobody - even your stereotypical guineas from Bensonhurst - talk like this anymore. It isn't even "old-fashioned" as you say ... the shit doesn't exist anymore at all. Although, the cawt/caught shit still exists; I am guilty of it.

[dancer8164]

hahahhaha I'm from new jersey, pretty acurate but a little extreme!

[BoeckmanOSU]

The guy in this video: /watch?v=gFH0AMvn6Hc&feature=r­elated is how most New Yorkers talk

Can anyone tell m
