Even when you aren't using words like "ay", "day", "woe", doe" or "cor", you can still hear the difference between the Brummie and Black Country accents.

I used to work in a factory in called Simon Engineering Dudley Ltd over the road from Russells Hall hospital. My Brummie son is married to a Black Country wench. My mother was born and grew up in Smethwick. I think my mother was more Black Country than Brummie. Many happy memories of Dudley and the Black Country.

    Nope , no Black Country accent here, a slight Birmingham maybe. If you would like to hear what it sounds like check out the comedy character Doreen Tipton, portrayed by an actress but still a very good attempt.

    'Mr Lycett may be a good mymic, but has failed to understand that a Birmingham accent is not a Black Country accent. Black Country vocabulary is drawn from many words similar to those from other parts of the country and possibly European continent. Like all languages words are gathered and become popular. The word 'Suc', as in ''ers on the suc agen'. meaning 'she is eating sweets again'. Could that word 'Suc' have come from the french ''Sucre'', or arguably, it may be just down to 'sucking' on a sweet. The tone and pronunciation is different, and far more noticable and strong, but you really need to either go there or be born in the heavy industrial areas that cherish their language. I was born in Willenhall Staffordshire, notable for lock making, but noticed the nearer you got to Birmingham, the more the Black Country tone changed to the 'Brummie' accent, which is a fond favourite of comedians to try.

      In fairness, Joe Lycett didn't actually say he had a Black Country accent. He said he was from Birmingham, but didn't really have THAT accent, and then went on to ask Stephen and Nicole if they'd HEARD a Black Country accent.

Brierley Hill and Cradley are very historic towns for industry, not sure if you know, Cradley Heath was famed for chain making, they made tye anchor and chain for the Titanic, and the life boat davits were made by a company called Wellin Lambie which still exists in Brierley Hill today. There was also a huge steel works on Brierley Hill called Round Oak... it was huge... reportedly was responsibility for 5% of the UK steel production. So it was known as a steel town... then whole area is very industrial in its day.. Ive been to California, the coast road is a beautiful drive... different world to the steel town I grew up in.

      I think it's more to do with education. They went to the kind of schools that knock it out of you or where you become so self conscious about it you learn to lose it yourself if you wish to. The middle classes in those areas don't start out with such strong regional accents to begin with and children pick up their accents first from their families.

    Birmingham and Black country accents are different. Joe is from Brum and doesn't know this. Black country accent has it's own words, dialect whereas Brum is an amalgamation of the rest of the country (crossing point) and mimics the black country inflection slightly.
