  • Alright, I'm from New York, and I must admit this woman is overexagerating the "o" sound. However, she's not that far off though. There is a difference in the "o" sound we make, but not quite noticeable.

  • Janice from Friends?

  • i say orange like arange. but not aaaaarange she sounds mad dumb

  • does she think only italians live in newyork

  • ...I'm not sure how to react to this.

  • lol No one north of 68th street and younger than 40 talks like this anymore, certainly no one I've ever spoken to.

  • Okay ha people chill. She's an accent coach for musical theater, in which everything's exaggerated.

  • Uh.... I'm from yonkers, & we DON'T talk like this.. This is more like Tristate Area in the 1950's

  • i hate dis an everybody that think we ALL NYCers talk lik dis-- i dont talk nuthin lik dat not even close------not everyone in NY is Jewish or Italian

  • I don't see why she has to do it in such an annoying way.

  • u over doing yo!

  • Uhm. I'm from Philly and I'm pretty sure Nyer say fawtha for fatha but this lady is cracking me up. She's right about Arange though we'd say Rrrnge neva Orange.

  • @omfgCantGetaUsername Lol, you think you really know everything about Brooklyn accents? You crack me up lol.

  • @mechaspark1 You think you're funny or something? And, I said New Yorkers not Brooklyn accents a New York accent isn't only reserved in the BK. I don't "think" I know so much I know that for a fact or I wouldn't have said it. I've heard numerous NYers in person say "fawtha...ahrange". Wtf you must never listen do ya? Or you probably never been to NYC. So don't try to play me loser.

  • @omfgCantGetaUsername I enjoy how confident you are in yourself. Believing that you "know so much" "for a fact" I'm not surprised that someone as arrogant as yourself would believe that he knows all about one accent just because he listens to a couple of people speak it. Then you all the sudden go on and judge professionals as if you are proving a point. This accent is for acting purposes only, not your everyday city accent. Use your ears. By the way, it's a Brooklyn accent also.

  • @omfgCantGetaUsername Final word on the subject. I lol'd at the fact that you began calling me names right when I was simply correcting you. Constructive criticism for beginners is NOT a crime. That's why you need to calm down, simply. Once again, THIS accent is meant for actors in plays. As she and many others say, its meant for actors to sort of stereotype the accent. And it IS also correct in it's own way. The way she is using it is also for it to stand out from the others. So it's very rich.

  • @mechaspark1 How is it that you pick me out the field talking about "I'm judging pros" when almost every comment on here is judging her and correcting her? I am calm but I immediately took defense because you appeared to be mocking me "You crack me up" because that's what I said. On top of that, when I was talking about the orange that is how people from where I live says "Arnge" but most people up there says "ahrange". Why is there even an argument if you know I'm telling the truth?

  • @mechaspark1 However, you turned around judging me assuming or sarcastically telling me I'm only basing off what I know from listening to a few people? How can you criticize me about something and you turn around do it as well? Lol. Yeah, I'm basing off the NYC accent from listening to Bugs Bunny and now think I know it all.

  • @omfgCantGetaUsername Listening to this lady got me constantly writing orange wrong I meant "awrange" everything has an aw sound. Anyway, I don't care if it was for acting or interview purposes. How were you correcting me your first reply didn't correct me it rather mocked me? If it's a Brooklyn accent then the title should be changed, eh? Philly is only 80 to 90mi down the street just like DC to Bmore there's so much in common. Everybody may not say "fawtha" but some do. Loser lol

  • @omfgCantGetaUsername I happened to stumble upon your comment once more. Wow, I can't even begin to write what mistakes you made. NO, why would she change the title? For people like you that get their knowledge from cartoons? Yes, you and the rest of you idiots think that since you heard 5 or more people talk in a New York accent, you are officially a licensed know-it-all. You think I'M trying to argue? You made THREE more comments arguing. Now just give up, I simply proved you wrong. Loser lol

  • @mechaspark1 Oh, really! You happen to stumble across my comments? Yeah, right! It's been going on 3 weeks now and you're just responding even after I sent you that msg. Just admit you wanted to have another last go to get the last word. I like how you left the comments before with the last say so to make me seem like you put me in my place. You sure showed me, huh? Pfff...! How did you prove me wrong when you came to the table with an empty plate? ROFLMAO...get lost bimbo!

  • @omfgCantGetaUsername I lol'd at how you spent the whole comment explaining how I was late. I was actually planning to let you waste your life replying all day to me, but you stopped. I came back here and decided to destroy you verbally once more. In which I succeeded. And nobody says "bimbo" :D

  • @mechaspark1 I say, bimbo it's the Internet it's not like I say it on the streets. Yes, it seemed like you were arguing to me if you wrote 2 comments in disagreement cus that's what arguing is. Lol @ "planning to let you waste your life replying" but you proved your own point making comebacks and have the nerve to gloat about it. I don't care if you respond or not you still get that msg in your comment box and you'll read it. That's twice you made yourself look dumb trying to play me bozo. Lmao

  • @omfgCantGetaUsername I thought you would figure this out on your own-- I stopped replying to your comments because I didn't want to be insulted furthermore, but I returned and saw your comments were hilariously idiotic and embarrassing for you. I decided to entertain myself and watch you cry by replying once more. I realized not too long ago your ability to fail at solving puzzles. So I'll try to simplify things. If I wanted to ignore you, I could. I don't even have to read it to delete it. Lol

  • Yawn. You think you have me cornered yet again? I don't give in when ppl like you stir something up because you started this so I'll kindly finish it which is my goal. I didn't ask for ya opinion to begin with but you begged to differ, which is *arguing. I didn't fail to realize anything dumbo. Did you read what I wrote? Apparently not let me rephrase, " I don't care if you respond or not you still get that msg in ya inbox and you'll read it." And you did exactly that! That's 3 times nincompoop.

  • @mechaspark1 Thank you for constantly responding it proves my final point. FYI, I never insulted you all the name calling was nothing but banter, cry baby. I like how you made all those excuses as to why you felt the need to "verbally destroy me" but we both know it's cus you couldn't settle not making a comeback. You make quite the fool outta yourself. Do us both a favor don't respond so it can SEEM like you ignored me then maybe I'll get the hint since I can't solve your puzzles. Take care!

  • @omfgCantGetaUsername Why ignore you when I can have a good laugh? "Banter" ? So "loser" isn't name-calling according to your logic, correct? Talking to you is like talking to a retarded 5 year old. I like how you just took what I said and tried to make it into some sort of insult. That's what makes you entertaining, you try so hard to put a smile on my face by putting effort into your petty insults. I only enjoy watching you struggle to make a new comeback out of scratch. You're hilarious!

  • @mechaspark1 Way to twist my words around. I never said it wasn't name calling, I said I didn't insult you. You even said, you lol when I began calling you names but then you gonna I insulted you. Make up your mind! My petty insults? Who stoops to referring to someone as a "retarded 5yr old" and keeps conversing with them for laughs? That'd make you the utmost ignorant adult or just retarded yourself. So, let me know when you find that "retarded 5yr old" that can type eligible on a keyboard? -_-

  • @mechaspark1 Not to rub it in but....I just wanted to say that's 4x. :) LOL

  • @omfgCantGetaUsername I expected more entertainment from you. Hopefully your next statement will be more enjoyable. :)

  • lol she has no idea what she's talking about.

  • @NullPoint84 And you do?

  • @mechaspark1 i didn't say anything

  • @NullPoint84 Yes you did...

  • @kathop123 that's perfectly understandable. But u gotta look at it from our perspective. This woman is inaccurately teaching you to talk like we do. The best way for you to learn would be for u to actually come to NY n go to wherever u wanna sound like ur from. If u wanna sound like ur from Bk go there. Or come to QU n learn from me lol.

  • I'm from Queens born and raised n u sound like ur from Boston. I've never said father like that in my life.

  • LEAVE THE NATIVE SPEAKING TO THE PROFESSIONALS!

  • STANDARD AMERICAN!!!! THIS IS A BOSTON DIALECT!

  • Expert Village should be renamed to Village.

  • Im a New Yorker and this sounds more Boston than anything. to get a better idea of how new yorkers speak....try dropping your r's and thats all. we would say stop the cAW. not stAP the cAH....this is bologna! store would become staw horse would sound more like hawse and orange would sound more like awrange not AHrange...shes got us confused with bostinians (who have a sucky baseball team by the way) LOL!!

  • You Cack sucker LOL this is a BOSTON ACCENT Dumbass

  • You have got to be kidding!!! What is Boston in New York? This is sad.

  • That awkward moment when you realize mid sentence that the word father doesn't even contain an O.

  • Omg lads come on this video is not ment for people going to NY its for acters that are doing old NY plays. So leave the girl alone she is just helping people like me. Calm down and dont get so worked up about it.

  • i need to learn this accent for a show and there aren't any better videos. if you want a video with the "correct" NY accent, make one yourself.

  • this is an idiot at work

  • This woman is full of crap - she has little idea as to what she'd talking about, and is she is a NYC native something is wrong, I'd say there is NO way she is.

  • Wtf?! I have family member from NY & NONE of them sound like this . As a matter of fact idk if I eva heard anybody from NY w / that accent .

    She sounds more like my teacher thats from Boston .

  • she says "standard american, normal..." are you saying that new yorkers AAHHrent standuhd amAHHricans? lolll shes making a fool of herself

  • this woman is making fool of herself. i've lived in brooklyn all my life and i have never head anyone talk like this. she should "involve her jaw" in a different activity. dumb bitch.

  • I am a new yorker and I can assure you we do NOT sound like this. This sounds more like a Boston Accent. She has definitely got it wrong. If your looking to learn a new york accent watch videos from original new yorkers!

  • this is hilarious,, shes all soft spoken useing words like normal to describe her dialect but i guess we New Yorkers- OVA HEA AIR-A BUNCH A WEIERDOS EHH,, LOL!!!

  • See. my problem is that she is the best I've got to learn this stupid accent. Obviously she's pressing it so people like me can figure it out. If you want soemthing better, make one yourself.

  • and if you can't learn directly from someone explaining it, then you should just listen to a bunch of videos of people with NY accents talking ^-^ Also, whoever this woman is, she's not using standard speech. I don't really think she has the right to be teaching dialects when she can't even speak with a perfect American English dialect.

  • Just gonna say this: I have two dialect coaches because I go to a magnet school for acting. NEITHER OF THEM ARE THIS BAD. I have no clue where or how this woman learned, but she just sounds like she's straining as hard as possible to sound like that. It shouldn't be that hard. All you need to do is do the accent and explain if people can't do it correctly...which would infer that you need to be with the person to learn a dialect, which isn't true...BUT STILL!! It's the quickest way (continued)

  • nobody in NY talks like that... that's boston. smh

  • what the fuck--! bitch have you ever even BEEN to new york?! nobody fucking talks like that here! there is a new york accent but u don't fuckin know it and u just sound like a dumbass middle-american bitch who thinks she knows!!

  • I get it now...I'm from Brooklyn and I often watch these actors with their New York accents and all I can think is "Wow, that's a horrible accent." Maybe, (since there are 8 million of us)...you could have an actual NY'er teaching this stuff. Because I hate to break it to you lady but we don't all sound like this. As a matter of fact, I'd say less then 10% of the people I've met here in NY since my birth sound like this. I wonder if that 10% were transplants who watched this horrible video?

  • @pilotmike5 graffiti and tagging was invented in brooklyn and breakdancing,old skool

  • this bitch is dumb

  • Lol I'm from New York and I don't sound the like nanny lol.

    I do admit I say dawg a lot.

  • All the people that live in NY you really actually don't know that you sound like that, but you do. Your so used to it that u can't hear ur accent.

  • This is so painful to watch. Stfu and leave

  • MISTAH SHEFFIELD!

  • Is there a reason she gets squeaky EVERY TIME she "uses" the accent? Not everyone in New York sounds like Fran Drescher.

  • aaaahhption, aaaaarange, raaaacket, staaap! I gotta say i'm having a whale of a time doing these...get me a faaaacking aaarange naaaaw!

  • what a fail im born and raised in NY and i dont sound like that neither does anyone i know. Not even random ppl u hear in the street talk like this! i think shes getting her Boston accent confused with her fucking NY accent...idk where shes getting her shit from but she needs to do better research and not take her shit off of something u see on tv!..expertvillage u guys are fucking dipshits!

  • this is fucking stupid..no body talks like this over there, we're not from boston.. FAIL!

  • george costanza on seinfeld talked like this

  • Hhaah woww ive lived in NY seince i was in the womb, we dont do that at all haha

  • oh, and btw, your accent doesnt have a 'very rounded o' its still kinda flat, or hard. sounds annoying to me xD

  • LOL fyi, you shouldn't assume that people watching your vids are 'standard americans'

  • This was actually very helpful. I need to learn an accent for an audition. I'm not trying to be perfect, I just need to learn the basic frameworks.

  • new york accent is obnoxious...

  • okay, it's NYC, but you don't have to talk like Janice

  • turn the soft ahh to a hard ahh... O.O

  • thats really only a queens accent not so much new york in general (im from long island)...my grandparents are from brooklyn and they dont talk like that, all the boroughs are different.....

  • SERIOUSLY if guys had so much of a problem with this video why did you even spend your time watching... she's trying to help people, theres really no reason to be mean or insult her... KMT

  • Dude... stop talking so slow we can understand youuh! we aint reetards like u!

  • Manhattaniese is a combination of Spanglish/Jew/Talian/Irish --- You gotta live here to know it. Villagefem

  • she sounds like the nanny....

  • @Melher27 this is hilarious!

  • ok hun.. it's soo funny how you try to sound like us.. like get ova learning this XDD I mean idc if you can do it, but dont sound like an idiot :P

  • Fuggedabout it! She's wrong....Thats a Boston accent..especially the way she pronounces "Orange" OR "Car" we don't say "caaaa" for car we also don't say "option" that way "aaaoption" <----- Thats Boston

  • BROOKLYN RAGE

  • that is not a new york accent, are you stupid? that's boston sounding and staten island sounding. go to new york city, no one talks like this.

  • Uh..that's not how you speak in New York. Maybe in Boston but not in New York.

  • beaut eyes

  • what a beautifaul pair of eyes

  • Boston much?

  • @O0HS0OBELLA

    I know she sounds like Matt Damon in The Departed lol

  • My high school is going to put on a spring production of Guys and Dolls and I'm trying out for Adelaide and I'll probably use this type of accent, like the way she teaches it, but I won't make it so pronounced.

  • 16 Haters...tisk....tisk

  • I think what happens is people catch the small but noticeable differences in the NY accent and then exaggerate them a bit for various reasons. I find it amusing.

  • :33 ewww her swallow

  • Okay not only am I from New York but I'm also an actor. NO ONE I know speaks like that. This is WAY too over-dramatized. If you were to do this in a show or in real life, you'd get socked in the face. And I mean sOcked. Not sAcked. No one speaks like this.

  • my middle scholl is putting on guys and dolls. i want to try out for adilade but im not too good at the acent

  • no offense but im from new york, my dad works in Brooklyn, and ive never heard anyone talk like that

  • she is an amazing teacher.

  • this sounds freaking BOSTON.

    and she should probably specify that its for new york CITY.

    but this sounds RREALLLYY BOSTON. seriously. park the car in boston yard

  • @FrenziedBlue13 hahah, i'd guess you aren't from Boston. The common phrase is, "park the car in Harvard Yard". :)

  • I have lived in New York my entire life. The "stop" and "car" and "orange" sound like a Boston accent. New Yorkers don't sound anything like this.

  • Well if she's doing this for actors then the actors are gonna suck because we don't talk like this. If you want to act jewish, then sure talk like that.

    And people from Boston don't pronounce the A's, we do.

  • Comment removed

  • This is perfect... for a Boston accent. I had several friends from Boston who spoke exactly like this, and they were very particular about the difference between Boston and New York accents.

  • Actually, this is how people used to talk in NY. As people from all around the world move here, the accent is disappearing. Both of my parents were born and raised in New York and have New York accents. Most of the REAL original New Yorkers have moved to Long Island/Westchester/New Jersey because New York is too expensive and there is low quality of life (unless you're filthy rich). New York is now like the rich man's Disneyland. Most people living in New York now are not even from New York.

  • @mawyyy i agree with you there, it's a shame, i loved all the brooklyn/new york accent and culture in films ect

  • this is a Boston accent!!!! or Baaaastan

  • Give me an orange? Bake me some muffins bitch.

  • I liked her vid, but she reminds me of Fran on the Nanny. X3

  • she talks like a cross between my cousin vinny and the nanny. no one talks like this anymore. the closest we have to this would be someone with a boston accent and a nasally jewish american accent.

  • Man I want to actually perfect the art of speaking in a new york dialect!

  • ahahah she s fuckin kiddin us ahahah

  • @eheheh1986 HAHAHA I FUCKING KNOW RIGHT?!?! HAHAHA

  • This doesnt even sound like a new york accent. I live in new york and NONE of us sound like that....this is just bull....its so sterotypical

  • @AprylElricChan yeah totally like oh em gee like haha i kno right?

  • Her video on how to do the British accent was better :P

  • This was really helpful because I'm rooster in my production of annie so I needed to get this accent down

  • im from new york and we don't talk like that. she sounds more like an Italian from new Jersey

  • @hellokiko69 jersey accents are similar to brooklyn and queens accents. This is def NY. I'm from Ny. Watch Jersey shore, they don't sound like this. She's just a little too nasal in some parts.

  • she talks with her nose too much-_-

  • I'm born, raised, and lived in New York City all my life, I have never heard anyone speak like this. She sounds more like she is speaking in a Boston accent.

  • Nyers definately do say a-range and fa-rest, including myself. the problem is ur overexaggeration, but i guess when ur tryin to teach someone who doesnt know overdoing it help. but we dont elongate it and use so much nasal (sounds like an old lady. Its more abrupt and quick, at least thats how we say it here in the bronx.

  • @PikSokolit I am a stage actor, and when you are in a theatre, yards away from the audience, it is important to overexaggerate slightly in order to convey it to a distant viewer.

  • ho crap! now that i think about ti i kinda tlk like tht! damm..

  • This is not even N.Y., it's Rhode Island, she sounds like my cousin Marilyn. Fire her.

  • @nicodagger Rhode island is pretty friggin close to NY.  If you have an issue, don't watch. It doesn't help to put her down.

  • @chicklessPRO -- You are correct. I'm from Boston myself--35 years there-- but have lived a few years in Bristol and Newport, RI. I was quite surprised at how New York sounding most Rhode Islanders were, and just an hour south of Boston, too.

  • She doesn't draw the distinction between Bronx vs. Brooklyn vs Queens vs Long Island dialects. There is no one standard 'O'. The true dialect coach would know that. And as a native NY'er, I wince, 'cause I'm not hearing it here. You have to have ears -- Mike Myers as 'Linda Richman" is better than this.

  • @ClueSign I'm from NY, and while there is a definite difference between a Long Island & a New York City accent, within the city, the only borough that has a different accent is Manhattan. The outer borough have the same accent, providing the ethnic background or the neighborhood they grew up in has a definite ethnic background. Example. If you are an Italian American (the strongest of the NY accents) whether you are from Brooklyn Staten Island Bronx Queens it will be the exact same accent.

  • @ClueSign Now Mayor Giuliani, having grown up in a mostly Irish neighborhood, does not have that Italian American NY accent. James Caan, Jewish, having grown up in an Italian neighborhood, does have that Italian American NY accent. That's what I mean by either being of an ethnic background or growing up in a neighborhood that has a definite ethnic culture to it.

  • @ClueSign Ed Koch, Jewish, grew up in a mostly Jewish neighborhood, he has a NY Jewish accent, which is completely different from a NY Italian or NY Irish accent. My point, there are 4 distinct NY accents, but they have nothing to do with what borough you are from, Manhattan is the exception,. Italian NY being the hardest sounding thickest and most stereotypical, Jewish NY is very nasal whining sounding, Irish NY is similar to the Italian NY but not as strong or hard sounding.

  • @ClueSign Two things about the NY Italian accent: 1) It is impossible to lose.  2) It is impossible to fake, if that is not your normal accent. Take the Soprano's, great show btw, but you can tell when Paulie spoke that is how he speaks normally, but when Tony spoke, Gandolfini, tried to have a NY Italian accent, but if you are from NY you could tell his accent was off a little and you could tell it was fake.

  • me and my frineds have a nasty long island accent

  • this woman is brilliant.

    informative, interesting, really cool stuff!

  • well for all of the people who say that they do not speak like that, or have never heard somebody speaking with this accent, im sorry to tell u, that u do... hahahaha im mexican, and theres many people from i dont know where ahah, i just know theyre from the US and yes, american people speak like that, and principally in new york, you tend to nasalize the sounds of the vowels, they do this more in NY , but in general almost all american accents are very nasal hahaha :P

  • She is doing this for actors guys.

    This is perfect if people want to do a brooklyniese accent/ she should retitle the video.

  • @cancerianfirelordess yeah, I'm an actor, and if someone where to do this for a show, I'd fire them. Acting or not, it's just not good.

  • Comment removed

  • @cancerianfirelordess Agreed. i need this accent for a play/audition

  • @cancerianfirelordess yeah shes not doin anything bad just leave her be she just doing this to help

  • she changes her voice into a nasal more jewish new york.. than actual new york.. and i think she is exaggerating the sounds too much..

  • @bluej911 it just feels like an exaggeration because of the contrast she is making between 2 accents

  • ahaha that really is exactly how i say it. she is right on with all of this. and how the hell is she making "us" look bad??? joeamy and radical360 whatever the hell your name is---shut up!

  • no one i know says aption or stap the cah like she is saying. my girlfriend is from north carolina and she listens to the video and listens to me and its nothing like the video. I or anyone I know does not say fatha or racket like her

  • She actually changes the sound of her voice to an old woman, lol.

  • Dont b mean ppl. if u have a prob, just dont watch her video anymore.
