The Barbara youre having a baby cracked me up😭😂😂 I’m also Scottish and I really need to try this out 😂
I just had to, I couldn't help myself 😂😂
Kirstie Bryce I tried it and actually it got fairly close😂!!
I could stay here for an eternity and just listen to you speak. Thanks for sharing YOUR Scotland with us. Much love from Germany.
Oh my God :) I used to have round six hours a week of phonetics and phonology during my bachelor's studies. And we went through a ton of material on those subjects. How each vowel and consonant is different depending on a countless variety of factors :) How cool is now seeing you doing a video like that? It's like a quarter of a chapter from one of them brick-books in a nutshell! These were the good days :) I much appreciate the content and this video as a language geek :)
Thank you so much! I'm glad you enjoyed it, I'd definitely like to do more comedy videos that involve language/accents somehow 😁
Hi Kirstie! Thank you a lot for your nice videos. I'm russian and I am a fan of your accent :)
Hey, thanks for taking the time to watch! 😁 I've been uploading loads of new videos recently if you're looking for more content.
I was born and raised in Canada. Lived next door (read: there every day) to my Scottish grandparents (one from Perthshire; one from Keith) for the first 10 years of my life. I used the app and discovered my accent is from Laois, Dromcolliher and Fermoy in feckin' Ireland. LOL!!! Who?
Great video!!!!
Right give us a sec, I’m about to track my own accent down! This cracked me uppppp
I am about 98% sure this is thee most inaccurate way I could have looked into this 😂
I once followed a course on general phonetics, so I developed a good ear for these things, and I can hear what went wrong in answering the questions: in the word 'chicken' you pronounce the second vowel more or less like [ɪ], so option A not B, but lowered a bit, like all Scots pronounce it, and very short, which makes it sound almost like option B. The makers of the app should have included the option of lowered [ɪ] because that's very characteristic for Scottish accents!
It's almost like the makers didn't think much about Scottish accents and dialects, also the fact that they didn't even include the word 'skelf'. The app also seems to mark all kinds of pronunciations which I think are general also in Scotland as distinctively English!
In the question about 'a bit of' you should have answered C, because you pronounce the t like a glottal stop, not a d or a tapped r sound.
In the question on the word 'room' they left out the most common Scottish pronunciation! You definitely have the vowel of option B though. Option A, which you chose, is typical for very posh older RP, I think, hahaha.
In the last question the transcription and the recording of option B don't quite match up, but I think you should have gone with that one instead of C, because the transcription of B matches with your pronunciation, while transcription and sound of C definitely don't, although it sounds very similar.
So the app has some inaccuracies, but if you'd fill it in like I said, it would probably indicate some location in Scotland.
Enjoyed watching it
Thanks so much, I'm glad! 😁
@@KirstieBryce you welcome
The closest UK relative I have is my grandfather from Wales who died when I was newborn so I've never heard anyone in my family speak with a UK accent yet everyone says I have one. So let me try this. And just came back from doing it. My hearing isn't the greatest and some were close so there could have been a more believable result but the top three guesses were in Ireland and the reddest area on the map was between Nottingham and Doncaster in England...nowhere near Wales!
Just goes to show how blended accents can be doesn't it 🙌🏼🌍
Both ma parents are from Glasgow and I grew up in loads of places, Lanarkshire to Cumbria, then to Belgium then to Lincolnshire, so my accent is mixed with Scottish, Northern English, East Midlands, so I found this so interesting as I identify as Scottish! I got Oban, Bridge of Weir and Kilbirnie!
Yes! Finally somebody else that gets the concept of a blended accent 🙌🏼 That's quite a cool set of locations accent wise!
Kirstie Bryce It is I guess! I love your accent! Going back to college this year then plan on going to a uni in Glasgow!
Id say your'e Ek/Ayrshire, I live in Poland now so I awfa miss the accent and patter 😅 I moved from coalburn to muirkirk for a few years and honestly the way they count to 11 (ALEEVIN) is absolutely mindboggling 😅.
Great vids 👍
You're close, I'm more central than far west. Aw I can imagine 😂 Poland looks lovely though, I've always wanted to go there. On my list for sure.
I'm an American, and my aunt is from Newcastle and, as I am sure you know, has a very particular English accent. Your accent (and manner of speaking) sounds like a mix of her's and what I'd consider a "traditional" (I know there are many but go with it!) Scottish accent. So I guess I can see how people may think you sound a bit Irish? That northern English/Newcastle accent and Scottish seem to mix to sound like that! Just a random thought I had which probably is completely off :D Either way, the vid was great, as usual.
I'm glad you liked the video 🙌🏼
I think it all just goes to show how blended accents are such a thing 🌍
Yass Newcastle used to be part of Scotland a long, long time ago. Yeah, Newcastle & Scotland, same words 🙌.
To me you have a classy Scottish accent!
🙌🏼 YES! Look everyone, I'm a classy bitch! haha! 💁🏼♀️🙋🏼♀️
You've always sounded like Glasgow adjacent to me. Not Glasgow city, but somewhere nearby. Definitely not Edinburgh. My Aunt was seriously Glasgow and perhaps slightly north of same.
Interesting! I've had that quite a lot. When I was at university in Edinburgh, some of the students in my class who were from that area genuinely couldn't understand me for the longest time! 😂 Blended accents all the way 🌍
Hello, are you familiar with any Bryce’s in Shotts?
Hahahah thats a quite funny accents hahaha it make me laugh hahahaha again you made my day(night) rather ahhaha
I'm so glad you enjoyed it! :)
Did you say where your accent is fae ? It sounds sort of East Coast. Definitely near Edinburgh but not from Edinburgh?
My main "Personal Policy" for accents is that I make a deliberate and conscious effort to do my very best to ignore a person's accent and instead simply focus on what the person has to say. I do this out of respect, to not objectify people based on their accents. :-) When I first started watching your videos, I honestly thought to myself, "Hey, she sounds just like Shrek! Well, a female version of Shrek, I guess," but I was being polite and not blurting that stuff out aloud. I simply kept those thoughts to myself...but now that I realize that you love Shrek, I guess it's all good, Ha-Ha-Ha! ;-) I enjoy Shrek too. He's got a wonderful sense of humor, I think. I often struggle to know the difference between Irish and Scottish accents and culture. No need to worry about me being a member of the "Dialect Police" department, Kirstie. You see, I always thought there's only one Scottish accent: THE Scottish Accent. Don't mind me, just being ignorant here. ;-) While I think that accents are interesting, we're all human beings and I focus more on subject matter and less on accents. My friend is severely Hard-Of-Hearing and wears very-very strong Hearing-Aids but she does end up "Hearing But Not Understanding Well," especially when accents are present. But common accents (such as the British or Scottish accents, both of which are spoken by thousands upon thousands of people) don't really cause her difficulty so much as accents commonly caused by the speaker "Speaking English As A Second Language" (a.k.a. "Accented English"). I'm wondering what the phrase, "Taking The Mack Out Of" means. I think my being American might be the reason I'm unaware of what that phrase means.
@@marksmithisonyoutub936 relax bro
@@balconybbq6582 I mean no harm in my Comments. I never mean to offend. I'm ready to listen and be educated of what I said that was out-of-bounds so I can not make the same mistake, moving forward. I mean well and am teachable.
@@marksmithisonyoutub936
The Irish say "take the Mick" when someone is teasing you or having you on. While none of my Scottish friends have ever used this, I'm pretty sure they've switched the "Mac" for "Mick"
@@LindaC616 So then, in that case, the Irish might say that a lot of people may "Take The Mick Out Of" me for my very nasally voice...
I've always found accents interesting from an actors perspective, and I think people senses of humour and personality is amplified by how they communicate, but I completely agree with you about objectifying someone based on a superficial thing.
That's interesting to know how different accents impact how someone with a hearing impairment understands things, I never thought about that before.
I saw that one of my other subscribers explained the phrase below :)
I got Glasgow, I'm from Dumfries and Galloway
Omg that phone back lmao ye fling that wee hing doon the stairs?
It's a marble phone cover ya dafty 🤣🤣🤣
@@KirstieBryce lmfao ahh I see it noo.
You sound Scottish, I am from East Coast Canada (Halifax) and people have told me I sound American, kind of like you not wanting to sound English.
I honestly think I have such a blended accent 🌍😁 Haha! The whole not wanting to sound English thing was just a sarcastic joke, but I think I know what you mean.
I’m an American and just downloaded the app to see what my American accent is closest to. Interesting results
😂😂 I'm not quite sure that would technically work but I hope you had a laugh regardless.
@@KirstieBryce It was something.
Thawring Awkingshield
I’m from Glasgow, grew up in California, moved to Surrey at 13 and Cabo to USA at 19. My accent went threw some stuff. You don’t sound Irish to me and I’ve a good ear.
dud Lass, my whole linguistic is weird pronounced,
how the f. should I know?
Only thing I know people tend to say: Wooohha, SLOW down girl you have a very broad accent.
Can tell you now you dont sound Irish your accent is quite clearly Scottish and very similar to mine :)
Mine Falkirk/Weegie
Haha! I reckon the app was just having a bad day bless him 😂
Also I've never heard anyone from Scotland actually refer to themselves as a weegie, there's a first time for everything!
@@KirstieBryce sad reality of my accent 😂
Please use the word natural and say it in your accent as much as you possibly can.I love when you say that weird I know
😂 well I definitely didn't see that coming
You have your posh voice on.
Posh voice? Get outta here ya roaster 😂
@@KirstieBryce Do you say where you are from? Quite hard to guess. Different accent every 5 miles.
Irish 🤨 WUT ? ....
I think that this is what’s called a crap app.
😂😂😂 I mean, there's definitely room for improvement in terms of accuracy haha!
You are more Scottish than Sean Connery. 😆
Haha! 😂 Oops...sorry Sean...
