Fantastic video, pal! I’ve tae say, as a non-native English speaker but a big fan o’ the Glaswegian accent, I reckon I can follow Dundonian no’ too bad at aw.

A fellow speaker. Do you think the Dundee dialect is fading away? Are schools trying to promote English? You could also use Dinghy in 'Dinghying a Taxi', which means running away without paying. How would you say Ground? I would say Grund, Groond or Ground'. One of my favourite sayings is when someone asks you did you eat it all? I would say A et it a.

Hi from Inverness I have autism as well enjoy your channel

Do not tell anyone you will get fitred

A roundabout in Dundee???? Its a cirkul ya knob!

You forgot to mention that "aye" becomes "ehh" and "eh" becomes "iyy".

Oan the buroo! Buroo, pronounced broo. It's from bureau.

"roundabout"? That's a circle, surely!?

Mine come from being around manipulative and abusive behaviors and environments. Feeling their messy energy. Look into clairsentience see if you can relate?

Gies a pae, an an eignyen and an aw.

Aberdonian & I like the Dundee accent. Eh hud meh eh on a peh

Just found your channel. Listening to you feels like home, one of my 'homes' at least. I spent the last 4 years of school (in a village a 20min drive from Dumfries) and 4 years of University in Scotland (StAndrews), and your accent just brings me right back. I'm autistic as well, by the way, got diagnosed about 2y after leaving Scotland, back in 2006. Loved your Dundonian video, and realized back then I used to use quite a bit of the same slang. Unfortunately spending a single year in Norwich resulted in my Scottish accent just about going away. Then again, I seem to just adopt the accent of the people around me, if I don't know it yet, it usually takes a couple of months, but I'm quite sure, if I spend a week in Scotland, I'd be right back to talking in a Scottish accent. I'm from Germany by the way, and I loved making people guess where I'm from. I heard just about every single English speaking country as a guess, but never Germany. I guess if you don't do the ripping the words apart most German speakers do, people don't realize you could be from Germany. People could never really place my accent, because I just adopted parts of the accents of the people around me, so it was usually a mix of various Scottish accents, which is probably why people wondered where I'm from at some point.

No lie’ I’m born and raise in America atleast 3 generations and then it gets “foggy” with records… but I always struggled with English in public schools in the late 1990’s-…basically now🤷‍♂️ But I’ve noticed I had a stutter when I said certain words that my cheeks and throat were being told “that is wrong” And 20 years later I’ve noticed when I am fully relaxed the Maager blood from a father I’ve never know but is the only connection to this way of speaking: really opened my mind and I appreciate you posting this video for me to find it 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇺🇸🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🙈

I was in Kirkton when "Dinghys" was first discovered! It started with people claiming they had a rubber ear and could not hear the request for a loan of a tenner or such. " ehh rubber ear"canna hear you. Then" ehh rubber dinghys" would be the reply..then just dinghys was adopted for canny hear you your talking pish. Ha ha

I heard that some TV programmes would have been set in Dundee but the actors found the accent too hard to copy! - up too our knees in candle grease and pockets full of cheese.

a lot of the Scottish dialects have their roots in Flemish and old English. Scots is a Germanic language in its own right. Doric in the North-east is really similar to this. We would say Da for don't, simmit is vest, sark is a shirt and trousers are breeches.

Ima geordie Ana understand everything 😊

Best advice is to lie in interviews, but when you get the job tell them the truth because then they have to accommodate you.

This brought a smile to my face. All my family are from Dundee and speaks exactly like this. I am Australian born. Weirdly you look like you could be my brother 🤣

Bloody hell! ASD/Dundonian/into music production ...that describes me!! I also have a small collection of synthesizers (and software synths) I use Ableton.

Dundonian with 'ASD'? Yessss! ...Subscribed.

Get yer fut oot o ma pus! ..expat Dundonian here wha speaks like a sassenach and trying to re-learn the noo ...we flitted when I wis jist feve!

your versions of words sound like norwegian. In stead of saying move in English, you would say flytt, flytte in Norwegian. Ein(own) is egen in Norwegian. Great video! Thank you

U nailed it wee man but calm the funk down speak more I'm enjoying this

I think I give it a miss to visit Dundee. No way I can understand any he was saying.

Ahhh finallly .....eh drapped my lolly doon the cundie

no roundabouts in Dundee they are circles

Very similar to the Aberdonian accent/dialect.

Oh meh gload ! Laddie you dinah hay a clue as to yuir history look phonetic version of your script.

Why would you want to ?

No way would a Dundonian say Roundabout it's a circle 😀

I lived in Dundee for about a year and a half. As an Austrian native I had quite a hard time with the dialect in the beginning. Buying a ticket on the bus could be quite challenging! Nevertheless, you get used to it quickly at least when it comes to understand it. Talking Dundonian is a completely different game, never managed it execpt for some words like univershity 🙂 Thanks for the wonderful video, it brings back lovely memories from way back in time! Love it!

same words in Fife except the I or eh pie or peh

Was mint man

It's the bru because it used to be the Employment Bureau.

Stirling area not that much differemt 1:35

I grew up in in Dundee in the 1980s. Born 1981 in nine wells. I swear the Dundee accent used to be waaaaay stronger than it is nowadays. There’s a story of us leaving a French campsite - a big squad of us on a busman’s holiday. Anyways we left the campsite and a French woman said ‘au revoir’ and a wee lassie from Dundee waved back and said ‘ey, we’re awa’

Cundie

Your dialect sounds so quaint!!!

lived there ...broughty ferry. until I was 8 moved to California. lost my accent within 3 months. any suggestions to get it back?

👀

I have no idea what your saying, Scots and yorkshire they don't understand each other 😂

Dee till eh deh !

Dundee avoided the great vowel shift that which changed the vowel sounds in most other dialects. There’s a theory that the Dundee accent is so quick and clipped because of the noise of the jute factories.

Awa an scrape the junkie oot yer wheelie bin is the only one I know

Glottal ramblings and slovenly mispronunciations make not a dialect.

am fae glezga, ya wee bunnet

Come up to Fraserburgh. We’re even more severe Scots speakers. Please note I am typing this in a language that is not my native language.

American here in the state of IL. Not one person with autism is the same! What jobs maybe right for one person with autism may not be right for another autistic person. I've found disclosing is not always the best route or option. I was fine with my very 1st job as they did know I had autism thanks to my school helping me get and keep that job. Jump to 2023 and I finally after years after not having a job and on SSDI found a job which may work as the supervisor is aware about the agency who's helping me.

I was born in Dundee and moved to Canada when I was 6. My Mum and Dad always spoke Dundonian. I love it and understood everything you said. It never leaves you
