    It is with a heavy heart that we say goodbye to Stephen, who sadly lost his life 9th February 2018. Out of respect I would ask that all comments on this video are kept kind and polite. Anything disrespectful will be deleted. Stephen was a kind hearted soul, so full of life with boundless energy and generosity. He will be greatly missed. RIP.

    In Glasgow and and most other parts of Scotland we don't use the word "why" we use "how" instead. You may ask "how's that?" as opposed to "why's that?".

A me ha dato l'impressione che siano dei tedeschi che hanno imparato l'inglese: cadenze molto secche e dure, e ovviamente accorciatissime. Ora che vivo in Scozia le differenze le percepisco perfettamente, a volte mi paiono arabi in confronto agli inglesi.

    Anna, Thanks for this one. I had an auntie (who emigrated to and lived in Melbourne) who had a very broad Glaswegian accent, much broader than Stephen's but it sounds similar. She had lots of idioms; when we visited as kids we had lots of fun trying to understand her. When she visited us in the early 2000's one of my friends couldn't understand some of what she said, much to Aunt B's amusement, but from long experience I could. So you do pick up the lingo and can understand the accent.
    One of my favourite words was "napper", as in “Ave you hurt your napper?" (Have you hurt your head?). She was born in the 30's but "napper" is still current as a cousin over there used it in a post the other day. That's why I decided to use it here. Northern Scottish isn't as broad as Southern Scottish if my relatives are anything to go by and some of the idioms are different.

    • @juliantheapostate8295
      @juliantheapostate8295 3 роки тому +1

      Napper is a great one which I use. 'Pus' or 'nut' are great alternatives. Though 'pus' means face e.g you can tell someone to 'shut their pus', that means shut your face (shut up)

    I'm an American from the eastern U.S. and I've been working on a Scottish accent for a play; this is one of the best videos I've found for practice due to the way it breaks out individual vowel transformations, providing multiple examples (with repetition!) each time. I also found the interplay between the host and the guest to be utterly charming.
    It was quite a blow to read afterward of Stephen's passing: all I can say is that his sweetness and personality are clearly still affecting people years later and I'm grateful for getting to be a small part of this small bit of his legacy.

I hope you give us a Yorkshire accent video soon, Anna! :D

  • @XAtmo97

    Its interesting that he has essentially doctored his enunciation on camera to better try to accentuate and match you.
    He's almost doing a scottish version of 'proper' English, but you can start to hear his proper enunciation whenever he adlibs during the shoot.
    In future it might be worth having some unscripted conversation with each accent to obtain some unmodified content to give a clean 'sample' :)
    I run RPG games and use these kind of videos to try to get my head around the more technical parts of accents.
    Love this content on your channel and would like to thank you very much for producing it so well and using the proper technical language to describe the enunciation. Hopefully I'll start to get better at it XD

    So, like all Yanks celebrating a Thanksgiving dinner, our conversation naturally turned toward Martin Patience's accent, which led us here. We were delighted by this installment, and the back and forth between you and Stephen. It was only afterward that we saw your comment about Stephen's passing. Although we only know him from this short segment, he radiates a good-hearted humor that I hope others who also never met him in person will enjoy through this video, which is now also a touching tribute to his memory.

    This guy was such a great sport! I recently found out I have 6% of Scottish DNA when I had not a clue. and the DNA comes from my three times great Nan from the side of my father. she was actually born in Northern Ireland I thought she was Irish but apparently she comes from Scottish descent. I was so happy to find out I have Scottish DNA I have Scottish people in great regards as the ones I met were such nice people. One day I would like to visit Scotland and just sit at the pub and hear people talking to one another to see if I can understand anything. I honestly think Scottish people are very kind-hearted and I'm very proud to carry in my blood Scottish DNA. Thank u Stephen. And thanks for this video. And thank u Great Great Great Nan.
