A just stand theeyr, lookin at em, lerrin em av a laff, thinkin to misen "Eyer, shut tha marth mate"

  • "Southern accents all blend into one"

    Wrong. Someone from Essex sounds nothing like someone from Bristol, for example. Just like in the north you've got Yorkshire, Scouse, Geordie and a load of other accents, in the south we've got a load of different ones too.

  • People say that the Birmingham accent is one of the worst, they've clearly never been to Wolverhampton :L Cmon you Wolves.

  • Northern girls a fitter than southern girls

    fact

  • @TheMrbollox oh god what an immature comment to make

  • @zoeisobel

    In general it's true, if you exlclude Newcastle of course.

  • I love the Yorkshire accent, Southern born and bred, I moved to Sheffield a few years back. Lol at the immigrant comment someone made, I spent 15years living on the south coast in Bournemouth, A lovely place we only had 1 foriegn student at our school(out of nearly 800) when I was growing up so FAIL COMMENT. Sheffield and South Yorkshire is a lovely place, I have loved my time here, and its sooo much cheaper :D.

  • for you people who say southern are all better talking and look betr and live beter fuck you ya smelly fuck nuts, you have al the immigrants you have all the stupid chinese/asian/english whores not us, we have a countryside you have fucking building after building after drug den after drug den, we dont do what cornwall do and jump off a fucking cliffe because we cant be arsed! go to london not 1 house just apartments comke to north its mostly well mde houses and nice and clean

  • @slang989 pardon? could you maybe say that again, perhaps try not to make stupid mistakes, and also please young child get your facts right before you go off on one!

  • Much better than the Midwest American accent, and I'm from Michigan! I was in Northern England nearly 6 years ago and miss the wonderful people. Cheers, lovies! :-)

  • tha knows wen tha's yorkshire - yorkshire n proud

  • Being from Yorkshire PREVENTS your chance of getting laid around the world, whereas being a Southerner like me is easily a free get-laid ticket with ALL international women!! TRUE??!!??!!????????? FACT!!??!!! Of course it is!!!

  • Yorkshire and the rest of the North is a fantastic place for a day-trip...YOU'D GET BEATEN UP!!!!!! The South is where it's all at!!!! THE PEOPLE OF YORKSHIRE CAN'T EVEN SPEAK PROPERLY!!!

    Proud to be from Kent!!!!

  • I'm from Kent county, i live in an almost entirely white-English area and we are SOO much nicer and down-to-earth than those Yorkshire thugs in the north.....

  • BESIDES..ISN'T YORKSHIRE ALL AFRICAN AND MIDDLE-EASTERN THESE DAYS??!! You go to Leeds or Hull or Middlesbrough or York and you play a game of "spot the white person"

  • Yorkshire people are SOOOOO bloody ugly and have horrendous accents and the people are NOT friendly!!!!! Southerners have sexier accents!!!!!

  • definately friendlier than the fuckin south

  • Go Leeds :D

  • it is quite a friendly accent

  • The only real yorkshire accent which changes is the Barnsley accent. Other than that because I'm from Leeds every other yorkshire city sound the same apart from Barnsley. Hows THA doing. LOL GO YORKSHIRE!

  • You can tek the man out of Yorkshire, But you can't tek Yorkshire out the man!

  • LEEDS BABY YEAH!

  • @Kitty. I used to live in Brisbane & worked as a sales rep. The first thing I did was loose my Yorkshire accent because no customers could understand me. Hull has got to be the worst acccent in Yorkshire if not the North. Stick with Aussie, at least when you go overseas people can understand what you say.

  • I used to live in sydney and I still retain my yorkshire accent. Everyone there was telling me how nice my accent is.

  • I was born in Hull but lived in Australia most of my life so I lost it but my Mum and dad still got the accent, I wish I still had it.

  • Like all parts of the country, Yorkshire accents change. Take Leeds, the accent changes considerably from east to west as is the case in Bradford.

  • I'm from east Lancashire and out dialect and accent are far from that of Yorkshire.

  • Im from doncaster and very proud x

  • Dude, have you ever even BEEN to yorkshire and MET the people?!?

  • as a non-native English speaker I'm completely in love with the Yorkshire accent, although it's pretty hard to understand. I find it incredibly sexy!

  • North is nicer

    But i fucking hate the accent, it common a annoying

  • Comment removed

  • yorkshire accent is ugly !

  • the sheffield accent sounds amazingly awesome! I'd rather have a yorkshire accent than this stupid american one. :/

  • @cardboardboxesftw what kind of american accent?

  • @cardboardboxesftw I rather like my stupid american accent. :)

  • "The South Yorkshire accent has been branded the worst for flirting and is said to be 'a huge turn-off'." Bollocks. When is it ever truly about the accent? Its not the actual accent that matters it's how you throw it. Women of all cultures and back grounds like a man with a bit of cheeky, roughish, swagger and when you mix that with a Yorkshire accent it's very seductive. Just watch the film Rita, Sue and Bob two and you ill know what Im talking about.

  • ynow what is a turn offf? Indian accents in men. Those are incapable of arousing any sort of flirtatious feelings in most women. not sexy at all

  • Sheffield! :D

  • I LOVE YORKSHIRE ACCENTS! Fiance from North Yorkshire and his accent is soooo sooo soooooooo SEXY!!!!!

  • wakefield and sheffield have the nicest accents

  • south yorkshire gives yorkshire a bad name

  • then u must be from yorkshire mate.

  • thats frecking wales dont dis lancashire and yorkshire it mite look shit but its a proper good people

  • go down rotherham, barnsley and sheffield and u will hear the deepest yorkshire accent.

    and 'get tha coat. tha's pulled' its basically like askin someone out lol

  • I hate the accent i agree that the north is better than the south in every way, but i dislike the accent my self.

  • barnsely have the strongest accent in yorkshire

  • no they dont, halifax have the strongest accent

  • having lived and worked in yorkshire the one true yorkshire accent is the one around the outskirts of huddersfield.that as to be the broadest i have heard having been in england for 15 yrs.

  • the last comment is so true

  • LOL the girl in the end is dissing London & Cambridge down south. -_-

  • Go Sheffield

  • I'm from Sheffield!

  • the west yorkshire accent (leeds and bradford) is more of proper yorkshire accent

  • barnsley is probably the most! and the most common, x

  • Oh Aye!

  • I,m Yorkshire,Born&Bred-Lived in Leeds for 26yrs,

    But I was always told I didnt have a very strong accent

    For Me,Barnsley is the Home of the True Yorkshire Accent-Thats why Comedians like Charlie Williams and Jonnie Casson made it big time.

    I Dont think it would have happened for them if only for the accent

  • And as a side note, back in the day when South, East, North and West Yorkshire were combined, Yorkshire was the heart of the UK, making wool etc, i dont no all the facts but i no Yorkshire was very important back then, we made the good ol' Yorkie (yorkshire terrier) which are all over the world now, which is saying something! :D

  • i'm just curious but like when something is expensive i / we refer to it as 'dear', "Are you gonna buy that? - Naa i cant its too dear." I was told that 'dear' is yorkshire slang, just curious if any one else from different places uses it..? (im from yorkshire btw)

  • I'm Australian and I love Yorkshire accents!

  • woop wooop!

  • Yorkshire!!

  • Worst Accents in Britain:

    5th Mancunian- they all sound thick as shit, when I hear it, I just think jobless and chav.

    4th Leeds- Again, very thick sounding, just an ugly accent.

    3rd- Welsh/ South West- These are just the ultimate in thicko, inbreeding, doled up moron accents.

    2nd- Brummie- Monotone, dull, makes you want to kill em.

    1st the worst- Scouse- the ugliest accent, possibly in the world, can't understand what they say, just ugly, plus Liverpudlians are always ugly too.

    (hopefully no pedos read this :/)

    But i thought i had a strong yourkshire accent till i met my family who live in North Yorkshire XD Ha its amazing!

  • I wouldn't say they have the BEST accents, I'm from London and don't think we have great accents either. I like Welsh accents the best.

  • The way things are going in Sheffield "The Home Of Refuge", you'll be lucky to hear a Yorkshire accent in 10 years, and you certainly won't see three women sat on a wall having a chat without some twat of a relative sat behind them and 10 kids.

    Oops, I mean, yes, multiculturalism rules OK.

    Not.

  • lmfao I like how the woman on the end just has to get that in!

  • Wow good response *rolls eyes*

  • There is a bigger difference between the London and Yorkshire accent than the American and Canadian one.

    Americans and Canadians sound very similar most of the time.

  • I'm from the Southeastern United States, with a very definite Southern Accent, "Gone with tthe Wind-ish" which most definitely does not sound like Canadians. Americans have regional accents as well. Someone born and reared in New York is NOT going to sound like someone born and reared in Georgia or Alabama.

  • I said 'most of the time', I obviously don't mean accents such as yours.

  • Just wanted to clarify. When you say Americans, others may think ALL Americans, which is not true.

  • Well they should get by saying 'most of the time', I am not saying all Americans because I know that there are many different accents in America.

  • London accents and Yorkshire accents could not be more different.

  • Why on earth would you think they were from London?

  • i hate everone else thinks all north easterners talk geordie. i live in darlington and we talk different to the people who live in newton aycliffe - only 6 miles away. and 15 miles away in middlesbrough there is a massive difference!

  • I Have a yorkshire accent.

    :D

  • lol

  • I'm from Canada too, but I can totally tell that they're not from London. They definitely have a Northern accent, that's not hard to tell (for me at least(lol)). I can even tell you what SOME accents are exactly... I don't know why, I've never actually been there either. maybe it's just watching British telly for a while kinda' tunes your ear?... am I just rambling now? lol

  • Rotherham

  • huddersfield (:

  • yeah its sexy!! :D

  • i love the yorkshire accent

    just any girl with a nothern accents being that they always sound slutty lolllll

    HOT!!

  • The only problem with this vid is that, because they're all on camera, they've all put there best talking voices on, so you don't get to hear much of a real Sheffield accent & dialect

  • Wakefield,, weyyy

  • Barnsley lad
