If you really want to see if the american accent and canadian accents that different, I'm doing an experiment. You have to guess which one I am from. /watch?v=gWBFh2JHOcw&feature=c hannel_video_title
there is a biggg difference in canadian and american accents. EX some canadians say progress as pro-gress while other (in the more american fashion) say prawgress
apparentley to everyone else, americans are dumb and sound ditzy:/ whenever they try to perfect the "american accent" its always a valley girl accent haha
Your American accent was passable. I'm from Vancouver, BC Canada. The accent here is the same as it is in Washington state. The biggest difference between the Canadian and U.S. accents is that in America there is much more variation with accents. People living in Alabama speak with a much different accent then people living in Ohio. If a Canadian person was touring England, i am pretty sure the English would think he or she is American. That's my take on it
Pretty good but for Potter and Total its not "patter" and "tatal" It is more like Toe-tal and like your saying the letter O Pot-er like a long o sound
LOL sounded like "Patter".. I'm Canadian and we say "Potter" the "o" is much more accentuated when you're Canadian! "Badderies", "Wanna go".. doctor, with the "o".
Uggh, "Dollar" was SO American! The "o", in Canada is very accentuated, (doll-er) whereas many states such as Michigan use an "A" instead of an "o".... which drives me nuts (dallar). And Canadian's say "todal", I guess... we're a bit lazy pronouncing our "t"s.
I like your non North American accent better though :)
@Barelybe true say my friend :) we do say the "oh" it's very distinct. i dont know why people say that we say "ah" instead. canadian = doll-er. not canadian = dall-er :/
Americans have different accents depending on the region, as with nearly any country. A Canadian accent is also different than an American accent (well it IS a different country) but I like that you have fun and play around with the accents. I love a British accent, even a cockney one! :-)
This isn't a good guide. If you REALLY want to learn about ALL the accents linguists have categorized within North America and hear them said CORRECTLY in an audio file, google
WHOA, when you said "docter" you sounded so North American it freaked me out... Same with when you said "Can I get the total for your bill please?" That was so freaky, man!!! To hear you go from such a total British accent to complete Southern California accent was crazy. You need to move to North America or be an actress or something... Good job, I couldn't do a believable British accent if my life depended on it!!!!
@HereIsCassie I'd agree in most cases accept that I live in Southern Ontario near the NY border and we sound a lot like our American friends living in Buffalo, NY and Niagara region of western new york.. If you compare someone from Texas or NYC to someone from northern Manitoba... Yea, massive difference.... Closer to the border, it''s a lot more similar.
@signofzeta No, there are MANY more N. American accents than just those you listed. Linguists have categorized <30 dialects in a single state in the US... 4 example you said "american south, dixie accent or texas accent whatever" : Within the alone south there are MANY different accents. You should study up:
Google "IDEA dialects"
Aside from that Hawaii, Puerto Rico and Mexico have scores of accents within their borders.
@eg463665 This reminds me of a situation where a guy says something, and people understand it, and some nerd comes in and goes "Actually blah blah blah", and everybody tells the nerd to shut up for spewing useless info.
Not to sound like a dick, but If you read my comment, I said the accents that I, as in me, and me alone, have heard from my very own experience.
If others read my comment, they would understand that my comment states that there is just more than a Canadian and American accent.
@signofzeta To continue what I said before, I don't read up on useless information. As long as people get it, then it does not really matter the exact number of dialects there are in North America, as long as there are more than two. If someone, who isn't majoring in language and culture, studies up on that stuff, I call that a waste of time. And besides, the most of us don't give a crap how many dialects are in North America.
@signofzeta Who are these 'people' you keep referring to?
It must not be useless or a waste of time to you if you're watching a video about it, bother to list the "4 known accents in North America", then respond to my comment.
@eg463665 I dunno, maybe I want to watch a video on someone doing an imitation of a Canadian Accent, and I decided to list off Accents in North America that sound cool and are popular to the public because of exposure to television or games, as opposed to reading up on at least 24 different accents, which are totally not popular to the general public anyway?
And your response to my comment and to that of the video poster makes us both look stupid.
Great job! you got it. I'm from Upstate NY, about an hour from The Canadian border. When I first moved to Colorado, people asked if I was from Canada because I say moontan, oot, and hoose. Pretty funny, I didn't know I have a little Canadian accent but,I'm proud of it.
@retroguy02 My accent is how us "London folk" speak, not the Queen's English. I am not a great fan of the Aussie accent.. Much prefer the American accent.. :)
wow sounds nothing like canadian, plus it sounds still a lil bit english, you have a lilt, at timed you sound like a surfer dude...lol keep up the good work, i know i dont sound like that
keep your English accent it's very elegant and sweet sounding! I'm Canadian ... you did the general American/Canadian accent very well ! you guys make words sound much more beautiful. but I love your English accents haha
Um, the Canadian accent and the American accent are completely different. That's like saying that the Australian accent is the same as the New Zealand one.....
@OnMyOwn1988 i wouldn't say they're COMPLETELY different. they're pretty similar. Btw, i wouldn't be able to tell the difference between an australian and a kiwi accent.
Virtually impossible for me to tell the difference between a Americunt talking and a Canuck. hell even Sara palin sounds like she is from either minnesota or Canada.
@1949FUCKUSA Americunt? Lol. wow. Spelled wrong American. Its eaither your spelling is wrong, or you like to make fun of americans. wow sooo imiture. :)
@1949FUCKUSA Like I said. Immuture :D. what ever Im not american. but at least i have some respect on other countrys. Unlike you. who obviously has no life. then to make fun of americans. :)
I am just enjoy mocking idiotic Americans but I also will insult other Westerners if they insult China. So Canucks, Aussies, New Zealanders and Eurocunts I wont spare you.
Ahhhhh Jeff that is ironic because im american and i met a guy from canada and his name is jeff :P lol thats just cool haha yah um what's next Nic lol
I don't even realize how different we Americans must sound to you folks until I hear the two pronunciations side by side lol
You ought to listen to some older people from the Appalachian Mountains in the US near where I live... they can be nearly incomprehensible even to most Americans :) lol
No such thing as an American accent.We have no set accent.There are more than three accents for us here in New York state alone.We sound nothing like texans,or people from Boston,or Maine,or Georgia! It can even vary from town to town.Or from family to family.Or race to race. DUMMIES!!
from boston to ny it changes that much? any examles ?
gosh.. it's the same metropolitan area... "bosnywash" (lol)
that really surprised me.. though you can tell the difference in accent from where i live to 200 km from here.. but it's a complete different thing (countryside accent of my state)
Yes,people in boston say a lot of words(including boston)very differently.We pronounce it like BAW-STIN.And they pronounce it how it is spelled,bah-stin.And western N.Y. is more like canadian sounding.And the N.Y. city area is much different,like in the movies or t.v. shows,that New Yorker accent.
what are you talking about, america has more accents within the country than anywhere else in the world. im canaidan, and when i go to america, everyone has an accent...
I liked ur video actually I like the way u talk and this video was awesome because I could see the different between the american and england accent because I'm not a native speaker of english I speak english because I my mother speaks english, but I got it as a second language, I like ur accent I think it is pretty nice yep don't change it well take care see ya
That was really good ! Does anybody know if its generally easier for an American to do an English accent or vice versa - because im starting to believe that its easier for english people to do our accents ...
But seriously, the american accent/canadian talk much higher, compasre how you said the words. When you tried to do it american you spoke higher. Go watch some canadian videos on youtube or something maybe some american ones. Pretty hard huh? Gotta like stress it out and everything. Same when you talk american you wanna sound english or '"euro".
you got the yank accent right, but canadians don't really speak like that, a typical canadian accent sounds like a light scottish accent without the rolling of the "R" the folks out in newfoundland speak an awful lot like the irish
Not really, most canadians sound like a standard american accent, like reporters on tv but more casual, take cities like niagra falls and ottawa, we all sound like a cali accent or maybe some from like new york and stuff, really, who says eh and aboot yo? I speak like new yorker and standard american evern though i was born and rasied in ottawa.I Know british words like trainers and crisps. I got the best of both. So just watch like kids talking on some candian videos on youtube.
well, thats ontario though, although I do say eh and aboot, but it's really like a-boat O not a U sound. torontonians really sound like new yorkers, us montrealers have a very perticular accent, personally I'd say it's a tad like muted british accent, but you CANT deny that newfies have a perfect southern irish accent, and nova scotians sound like scottish people faking a canadian accent
Haha i heard my share of quebecois, i AM from ottawa lol
yeah but ontario speaks american, alberta and sask. speak like canadian saying things like 'Sore-Eee' (Sorry)
and runners, like newfie and stuff ( well at least the adults, never heard kids) talk like eh and aw. Depends on what part of canada though. Oh and plus 9/10 if someone really speaks canadian they are an adult. most kids speak standard american with canadian tendencies.
you're probably from toronto. if you we're from the rest of eastern ontario, that would be a different story, especially the maritimes, although montrealers have a list of accents (brooklyn, american, maritime, italian, french) and thats only while speaking english. americans and torontonians pronounce the "ou" like in OUCH, so out in about sounds to you like oat and a boat.
Even here in Toronto we have a mountain of varied accents from prairies to maritimes. My old boss used to call a dollar a DALLAH - verging on Bronx - despite living here for most of his life and not pronouncing any other words like that. Accents around Canada are as wonderfully varied as England or the USA. Except I don't think we have class distinctions by accent as prevalent as England. Unless you speak hoser.
EVERYBODY has an accent. There is no such thing as non-accented language. Standard languages are an artificial accent or the accent of the dominant cultural group in a nation or language area. So, Americans, and Brits, Canucks, and Aussies ALL speak with an accent. Your "American" accent is very Yank or Northern. There are much better ones. Many Americans think that Midwesterners have no accent. Of course, that's ridiculous! Good video. ;)
True. I always thought of Midwestern U.S. as a peculiar accent. It's similar to Southern Ontario but they generally speak much louder and with wider mouths. There are a few differences but the ones that always stand out are pronouncing 'a' as 'eeah' and pronouncing 'o' as 'ah.'
There is more than one American accent, someone from Wisconsin sounds a lot different from a New Yorker or say a Texan, And I couldn't tell you what they Speak in Newfoundland but they tell me it"s English, so the Canadian accent is quite diverse as well
WOW, you're good! My fiance is English, and he does a perfect imitation of the way I talk (I'm an Orange County, SoCal girl, and "like" is way of life here, LOL). Btw, you are too cute for words, great vid.
Whoa, really cool and interesting vid ya got here. ;) I'm a "mid southerner" from subburban west Tennessee. I have sort of a late/great Bill Hicks thing goin' on, and so I don't know about my accent. Guess sometimes I'm a self-loathing American on that level.
I really dig all the English accents. b-movie queen and former Bond girls Caroline Munro and an adult film actress named Roxanne Hall especially.
Just somethin' about the English accents I dig. Canadian as well. So five stars here.
@stefharder I always do the peace sign, especially whenever I meet friends at the tube station or at concerts... Then we kiss/ hug it out. ;) That's how we roll x
lol this was quite impressive. Iv asked alot of english people of Canadians have accents and most reply "Well yeah we speak the queens english and you DO NOT". Iv never heard an english person immitate our accent tho. It was very cool nice job.
This made me giggle. I really try to do an english accent. I think you sounded american, but more like the leather jacket and holey trousers kind.lol. I would love if you could help me perfect a british/or moreso london accent. I could probably help you with a few american ones too.lol. We have just as many as the uk. But erm, respond if you'd like to.I've only tested my brit accent on americans so obviously they think its all alike. But exchanging accents sounds quite cool.Hope to hear from you
ok.. you should hear Manila Filipinos try and imitate accents... most of us can do a heck of a job at it...
like me.. I can do the Filipino English Accent, American Accent, Australian Accent, Kiwi Accent, and my favorite, British accent..
its cuz our text books are in English and when you cant speak English, people look down on you.. and also if you see our TV programs, its very diverse cuz its filled with alot of other nations channels.... :D

You ought to listen to some older people from the Appalachian Mountains in the US near where I live... they can be nearly incomprehensible even to most Americans :) lol

No such thing as an American accent.We have no set accent.There are more than three accents for us here in New York state alone.We sound nothing like texans,or people from Boston,or Maine,or Georgia! It can even vary from town to town.Or from family to family.Or race to race. DUMMIES!!
FATMIKED5183 2 years ago
from boston to ny it changes that much? any examles ?
gosh.. it's the same metropolitan area... "bosnywash" (lol)
that really surprised me.. though you can tell the difference in accent from where i live to 200 km from here.. but it's a complete different thing (countryside accent of my state)
marceloramires 2 years ago
Yes,people in boston say a lot of words(including boston)very differently.We pronounce it like BAW-STIN.And they pronounce it how it is spelled,bah-stin.And western N.Y. is more like canadian sounding.And the N.Y. city area is much different,like in the movies or t.v. shows,that New Yorker accent.
FATMIKED5183 2 years ago
And all of those different accents in each state are all American accents. Dummy.

But seriously, the american accent/canadian talk much higher, compasre how you said the words. When you tried to do it american you spoke higher. Go watch some canadian videos on youtube or something maybe some american ones. Pretty hard huh? Gotta like stress it out and everything. Same when you talk american you wanna sound english or '"euro".

you got the yank accent right, but canadians don't really speak like that, a typical canadian accent sounds like a light scottish accent without the rolling of the "R" the folks out in newfoundland speak an awful lot like the irish
akropiss 2 years ago
yeah... agreed.
when i was watching this i was thinking - she sounds really american... but not canadian.
Jade7272 2 years ago
Not really, most canadians sound like a standard american accent, like reporters on tv but more casual, take cities like niagra falls and ottawa, we all sound like a cali accent or maybe some from like new york and stuff, really, who says eh and aboot yo? I speak like new yorker and standard american evern though i was born and rasied in ottawa.I Know british words like trainers and crisps. I got the best of both. So just watch like kids talking on some candian videos on youtube.
FoziaAbdi 2 years ago 2
well, thats ontario though, although I do say eh and aboot, but it's really like a-boat O not a U sound. torontonians really sound like new yorkers, us montrealers have a very perticular accent, personally I'd say it's a tad like muted british accent, but you CANT deny that newfies have a perfect southern irish accent, and nova scotians sound like scottish people faking a canadian accent
jut don't get me tarted on the french. O.O
akropiss 2 years ago
Haha i heard my share of quebecois, i AM from ottawa lol
yeah but ontario speaks american, alberta and sask. speak like canadian saying things like 'Sore-Eee' (Sorry)
and runners, like newfie and stuff ( well at least the adults, never heard kids) talk like eh and aw. Depends on what part of canada though. Oh and plus 9/10 if someone really speaks canadian they are an adult. most kids speak standard american with canadian tendencies.
FoziaAbdi 2 years ago
I'm from Canada, and we sound almost exactly like the Americans.
bubbaofwar 2 years ago
you're probably from toronto. if you we're from the rest of eastern ontario, that would be a different story, especially the maritimes, although montrealers have a list of accents (brooklyn, american, maritime, italian, french) and thats only while speaking english. americans and torontonians pronounce the "ou" like in OUCH, so out in about sounds to you like oat and a boat.
akropiss 2 years ago
Even here in Toronto we have a mountain of varied accents from prairies to maritimes. My old boss used to call a dollar a DALLAH - verging on Bronx - despite living here for most of his life and not pronouncing any other words like that. Accents around Canada are as wonderfully varied as England or the USA. Except I don't think we have class distinctions by accent as prevalent as England. Unless you speak hoser.

EVERYBODY has an accent. There is no such thing as non-accented language. Standard languages are an artificial accent or the accent of the dominant cultural group in a nation or language area. So, Americans, and Brits, Canucks, and Aussies ALL speak with an accent. Your "American" accent is very Yank or Northern. There are much better ones. Many Americans think that Midwesterners have no accent. Of course, that's ridiculous! Good video. ;)
faelismaegnus 2 years ago 4
True. I always thought of Midwestern U.S. as a peculiar accent. It's similar to Southern Ontario but they generally speak much louder and with wider mouths. There are a few differences but the ones that always stand out are pronouncing 'a' as 'eeah' and pronouncing 'o' as 'ah.'

Whoa, really cool and interesting vid ya got here. ;) I'm a "mid southerner" from subburban west Tennessee. I have sort of a late/great Bill Hicks thing goin' on, and so I don't know about my accent. Guess sometimes I'm a self-loathing American on that level.
I really dig all the English accents. b-movie queen and former Bond girls Caroline Munro and an adult film actress named Roxanne Hall especially.
Just somethin' about the English accents I dig. Canadian as well. So five stars here.

I would love if you could help me perfect a british/or moreso london accent. I could probably help you with a few american ones too.lol. We have just as many as the uk. But erm, respond if you'd like to.I've only tested my brit accent on americans so obviously they think its all alike. But exchanging accents sounds quite cool.Hope to hear from you

ok.. you should hear Manila Filipinos try and imitate accents... most of us can do a heck of a job at it...
like me.. I can do the Filipino English Accent, American Accent, Australian Accent, Kiwi Accent, and my favorite, British accent..
its cuz our text books are in English and when you cant speak English, people look down on you.. and also if you see our TV programs, its very diverse cuz its filled with alot of other nations channels.... :D
