"They have an accent"
Love, everyone has an accent.
Weeb Is Key The majority of Americans I’ve come across don’t think they have an accent. I don’t understand it 😂
@@Jayderica Neither do I 😂
Weeb Is Key technically the british don’t have an accent because they are the original speakers of the english language
@@liam698 Nah we do, plus there's different accents all over Britain.
@Lin Lin There are many British accents, you'd have to be more specific with the one's you like and it's most likely students are depressed since they have so much to do and learn.

@@SneakyLinky323 where is in the US?
"They are the nicest people."
I love how all the Americans have compliments and a pretty positive ideas of the UK. But in every single video with the reverse perspective, the uk perceives only the worst stereotypes of the US.
My theory is that when Country A’s citizens know very little about Country B, that limited knowledge tends to be either mostly positive or mostly negative (when you have limited knowledge, you rarely get a good mix of both). The U.K. is an ally of the U.S., and the unofficial media propaganda has generally instilled good vibes about the U.K. into most Americans who don’t have a nuanced understanding of the country. (Compare that with China, which Americans also have a limited understanding toward, but because of geopolitical issues, the subtle propaganda they’ve been fed about the country is mostly negative.)
By contrast, just by the sheer fact that their country isn’t some huge superpower chunk of land that can be easily culturally and geographically isolated from the rest of the world, most British people have a far better understanding of the U.S. and other foreign countries than vice versa.
Yeah it’s weird how different our views are
Yes people don’t feel like they have to be sensitive, or kind about Americans. Shame. Such a genuinely diverse, beautiful and fascinating country.
They talk abt us like we’re North Korea or something but they never talk abt their problems, they swear they’re perfect 🤷🏾♀️🙄
@@brownie8876 Nobody swears that in the U.K. The fact that you think British people think they’re all that just proves even more how you know nothing of other countries lol. Self-bashing sarcasm is a staple in British culture. Also, by any metric you want to use, Americans are way more patriotic and arrogant about their own country’s greatness than Britons are about theirs.

“Well, they call soccer “football”
No love, it’s you that call football “soccer”
American FOOT ball is played 99.9 % with the hands.
LOL
Actually, only gay peope called it soccer in the 14th century. It eventually spread out to America when the homosexuals went on board the Mayflower. True story
@@emartinez2740 it was called football from the 14th century, when two villages played against each other with up to 20 players and across open link land .
Soccer became used, or misused by rugby teams in the early 19th century, when rugby split from football, calling themselves Rugby Football.
Soccer was used by them as an amalgamation of the words Association Football .
Your comment is utter nonsense and simply written without any knowledge of the subject.
@@emartinez2740 so the word "soccer" is simply a bastardised or amalgamation (depending on viewpoint) of the official name of the game
Association FOOTBALL.
@@emartinez2740 so to spell it out.
When rugby split, matches had to be differentiated for spectators to know , in advance, what form of football was going to played on a particular pitch (field) ,on information boards near,in,around the pitch.
Rugby Football or
Asoc.Football
Asoc. simply over a few years became soccer, and was particularly used by the rugby teams , as they were posh and wanted to acquire the sole use of the word football.
Football, from the origins 700 years ago was played by the poor folk, and was a very hard game,no rules, fights and plenty of beer.

Well, tbf we make fun of our weather all the time. So its only natural for them to react that way.
Maybe she suffers from Vitamin D deficiency.
Literally haha, was sunny as hell the other day and like 10 degrees in December
Weather plays a part. It triggers the release of hormones in your brain. That’s why there’s a thing called seasonal affective disorder - a type of depression.

Thank you 😂
Everybody in this comment section is an idiot. She’s referring to the dreary weather the UK is known for, which causes fluctuations of dopamine in your body. Dopamine is one of many neurotransmitters responsible for happiness, pleasure, etc.
Depression wtf?😂😂
Who of them said that
YoSoPlays scroll down and read the posts. I'm not making it up.
I mean tbh a lot of us are depressed, mostly us teens.
dan alex 77 well that's not actually true (currently clear blue sky/25c) and I wouldn't say that weather is the biggest cause of "depression"🙄.
dan alex 77 and where is this paradise you come from? Get over it FFS.
Really interesting ! Could have watched a lot more of this 😄
I love how this video was positive I hate how the comments don’t meet that energy
Was thinking /noticing the same. It’s amazing how Brits can take a video of several people saying positive things about their homeland and culture, and turn it into a negative. Says a lot. And as much as the Brits may hate on Americans; this juxtaposition is just showing me who might be the bigger ‘problem”.
I laugh when Americans talk about the “American Dream”, good for you though. Us brits don’t have a “Great British dream”, why? Because we’re already awake.
The American Dream died many years ago and it is a millstone round the neck of the people.
The idea that, if you fail despite everything which may be against you, it is solely your fault because you didn't work hard enough.
That's why big corperations have the power they do, why workers have little protection and why the healthcare depends very much on affordability.
Bullshit, American dream is alive and well and I'm proof. Grew up with nothing, joined military, went to college, started a business, retired at 37.

@@Buttsceatcgee omg Emily your such a crackhead omg hehehehe
Me with my brumy accent 😳
Every 5 feet there’s an accent change in the U.K
I’m British and I’ll be honest, I never see people from the US and Australia and those sorts of sunny places moving here, but I see why. I kinda want to live in one of those places so I can have some consistent sun so it’s not cloudy half the time.
Our weather builds character that’s what I tell myself when I’ve had enough with the shit weather 😂
Best weather in the world! 2023 summer not been a great one for sun lovers but the previous few have been really hot and sunny. But as a rule we have seasons that are distinct but not too extreme, which is ideal.
As far as people go, every country has their good and bad and you can’t ever make judgments about an entire nationality. I will say this tho, if you want to move to the U.K. and are prepared to fit in, contribute to society and be a giver rather than a taker then you’ll do just fine and be welcomed
Really?? There's loads of Americans in the uk, you can't walk 100 yards in London without hearing an American accent... I'm from Southend and I myself know 3 americans that live here

Actually if you look up the history of the British and the Americans, when the British came over to America, their accents pretty much stayed the same while people in Britain wanted to sound more posh and fancy. So the British changed the way they talk. So Americans speak with the original accent. Those on the east coast anyways.

The girls:tea and biscuits
Roadmen:oi wagwan my g want some fresh Mac Donald’s man
They look so basic like they all look the same 💀
@@notpostingx5035 its so american
Since retiring I keep myself busy by volunteering as a Tour Guide both with the National Trust and English Heritage. Then starting last November with walking tours around the city of York. We all love guiding Americans. You just never know what what they are going to ask next. Around 25% are well educated and knowledgeable. It’s the rest that we find entertaining. There must be something missing in the American Education System. Visitors from South America such as Mexico, Brazil and Argentina, seem to have a much better grasp of basic history.
I think history is all we really know about England (and the UK in general), albeit, not very much. In school, I learned world history in 10th grade. One class, that's it, and England's history is only one puzzle piece in a grand puzzle. The only other place we learn of England's existence is in US history (8th grade for me), with our revolution and independence from the "Red Coats". We don't hear much about it in contemporary times from school, unless the media portrays scenes, such as related to Princess Diana, or what's happening in the Monarchy. The monarchy is fascinating to us because it's a foreign concept, so we love to "learn" what's going on there. We don't know much unless we research on our own. Have series made with the day to day life of people in different parts of the world, and put in on Netflix. Some of us will watch it. Unfortunately, most won't care to, as we've been entrained that the world's problems don't concern us. Not true, I know.
@@danielleg3120 Thank you for your excellent comment. I’ve spent lockdown writing a little local history book entitled ‘Rotherham and the creation of the USA. Rotherham is my home town and began campaigning for
American Liberty even before the Revolutionary War started. Please google ‘Victory Arch Parlington Hall Yorkshire’ Wikipedia will explain that the arch was built in 1783 to celebrate American Independence! The Patriot movement actually started in the British Parliament as a branch of the Whig Party. These Whigs wanted radical political reform at home but were opposed by the ruling Tory Party. This conflict between Patriot and Tory spread to the colonies. In America Whigs were in the majority, whilst in Britain Whigs were a minority. But this was changing and British Radical Whigs were gaining ground. In 1781 the Tory government fell apart and Rotherham’s Whig Marquess Rockingham was asked to become Prime Minister. He agreed on two conditions - Economic reform at home and that he be allowed to set America free. This was just after Yorktown, the Tories were simply planning to send more troops. Rockingham stopped the fighting against the colonies, but continued the war against France, Spain and Holland. Tourists are often surprised to see a statue of George Washington in London. I bet for most American’s the political side of the story is something new. But it was American university academic books that I used for research. One of the best books - ‘English Radicals and the American Revolution’ by Colin Bonwick published by the University of North Carolina Press. So for me American Education is not just on two levels, but pushes two very different stories.
@@danielleg3120 : Check out a history channel on UA-cam by Dr Mark Felton, I think you will enjoy it.
These people seem lovely and fairly clued up on things here, it warms my heart that the anti-british mantra amongst the vast majority of Americans is gone. We have nothing but love and respect for our cousins and allies across the pond, so it puts a smile on my face when I hear that they have some nice things to say. Much love to our friends across the Atlantic 🇬🇧❤️🙏
I'm American but I always enjoy learning about and making friends with other cultures, Britain being one of them! (I quite enjoy British humor, history and accents especially haha.) I know there are some negative things about the US & Britain both, but it's lovely when we can both look past those and appreciate the good in each other. Best of wishes to you from an American friend. ✨🇺🇲🇬🇧

I would love to go to the UK and I would love to visit Scotland one time I'm over there I hear that is a beautiful place download the UK and would love to go one day maybe one of these days my dreams are coming true
please dare to ask indians, what they think about UK.
deenbandhu patel yeah do, it will amuse everyone in Britain
I love Indians love from Scotland 🤗 I’m always eating Indian food cozzz it’s goooood 🤞🏼
Considering there's plenty of you over there
I doubt no one gives a shit but if they do, it's pretty Degenerate... It's in the past and it would be the government you hate, not the people it's self.
I'm an Indian who lives in India and I love the UK. Don't plan to move there since many of us already there haha but I'm sure I'll visit for holidays.
@@nitishsaxena1372 on the bright side, you'll feel at home in either place 😀
I'm not from America but it always been my Dream country to go to. Like the food there and been craving for eggos for a while 😂 Love their happiness colors
@@niamh5508 ohh lol 😂
@GotAFedInAHeadLock That's the pointtt 😂 Our Amazon is totally different. You Can't Buy Eggooos
Noora Bader lmaooo don’t listen to that person. Eggos are actually good😭😂
@@jaaiimarie3770 Ohh really! Omy godd I want them sooo badd 😂
Fresh waffles and pancakes over beans and toast for breakfast…but not eggos.
My left ear loved this 🤣💜😭
I’m so glad that she is Scottish cause most of the people who do these are English so it just nice to hear another accent from the Uk
Great Britain with over 1000 years of deep history
"What comes to mind when u think of the UK?"
Americans - Brexit!.... Teeth!
💩🇬🇧💩
@Jacob S why not?
@Jacob S your dad is
@Jacob S are you 11?
@Kevin Kola if you just pretend California, New York and Florida dont exist America is a chill country.
2:21 yeah I think people all over the world are getting depression love... lmfao-
The sightseeings in Great Britain are absolutely striking and just different!!!❤❤❤ I really love!!❤❤❤
When they said one direction, I felt proud.
lmfao the sarcasm in her voice when she replied saying the weather in the uk we dont have any sun
People are having depression 🤣 yeah don’t think that’s mutually exclusive to the UK 🇬🇧
Goodthinkinguk
I hope your have/having a nice day.
“I understand that people are having depression“
I mean, that’s not really exclusive to just our country. Depression is a global problem, not a British trait.
i think the yanks were nice ,and they seemed to like the uk more than the interviewer did.
The Guy with the Cigar.......spot on mate!
Americans your very nice and kind, lovely people.
Love back to the Uk 🇬🇧 🤝🇺🇸
Tea and biscuits are amazing! I’m definitely from the UK
"I spent a week in London" - so you learnt **** all about the real England!!
She said she went to London (which is in the UK last time I checked) and really had a great time. It was on holiday, so she wasn't planning to do an anthropogical study or geographical survey on the entire country. Would you rather she said that she had a s**t time and would never go back?
@@johnalden5821 london is in england but you americans acr like england and london is one country try the british countryside full of nature and lovely views
@@Bignfluffy That's a rank generalization. I have known where London is since I was less than 10 years old, although I didn't go there until I was in my 30s. I have also been to the countryside you are referring to, including areas of Kent, Surrey, Sussex, Hampshire, Gloucestershire, Wiltshire, Oxfordshire and Somerset (plus Bath). I have also been to Cardiff in Wales. It's impossible to make blanket statements about "you Americans," and, frankly, it seems like your intent is to denigrate us without good reason. Let's try this: What state is Pittsburgh in? What state is Washington, DC in? Where would you find Mammoth Cave?
I very much hope to visit the UK.I have never been there but i know a couple people that are from England. Very nice people.
Don't be fooled.. These britons only show fake smile on their face
Roy well said
Roy what do u have against the uk?
@@tomfrost419 what are you gonna do if i don't tell you huh?
Roy never said I was gonna do something
Qow impressed with the lady who mentioned London and Northampton cool
Would love to come to England (part of the UK) to learn English. Actually a great point!
Hello good afternoon and happy Esther and happy Sunday to you.
I’m not going to get depressed by the weather but okay 😂😂
You get no sunlight lol
Limp Dick McHenry Yes we do? Cold/rainy weather is such a big stereotype here but in fact come in summer, I doubt you’ll be able to handle our heat waves 😂
@@skandarkeynes_skandarians your summer is a texas winter to dumb it down for an inbred Englishman . Parts of Arizona/new mexico/ cali is basically Afghanistan heat. A southern American heat wave would kill all of England...then maybe we'd take that from you too.
@@skandarkeynes_skandarians UK doesn't get heatwaves. All whilst you are wearing a scarf and jacket in your pfp, you don't know what hot is. Go to the suburb and every American has a swimming pool in their backyard lol
@@limpdickmchenry5261 yeah but your houses are designed for that weather houses in uk are designed to keep in heat so when we get heatwaves like the last few summers there is no where to cool down and we do get sunlight just today i had to close my curtains because the sun was shining in my eyes
I love y'all's accents man. Well I know you guys think we have an accent but I was overseas with my national guard unit in the military and there was a UK unit where I was at and we were getting lunch in the chow hall. Well I walked over to the server and I said hey partner I'll take some chicken fingers please and this brutish dude beside me said in his accent "I'll have some chicken fingers as well please" and I looked over and was like 😂😂😂😂😂😂 that is so badass I love the way y'all talk man
As an American that thinks of the UK I absolutely love the country I don’t just think of England I love there history so much and how they say words the correct way unlike us. The queens legit a iconic queen I support them and try not to fuck up a cov with one of my British friends and use the right words so they can understand me❤️👑
Wait, I thought the UK was more than one country?
Me seeing so many comments about Brits saying stuff about when they said soccer and then Americans getting pressed that we find it hella weird. Like it's FOOTBALL you KICK the ball with a FOOT where the bloody hell did SOCCER come from 🤣
Because they already had football I.e American football, they had to come up with something else.
