    • @Aiysha17
      @Aiysha17  7 років тому +9

      Markuz07 I'm glad you understand us but many non Brits do not. in fact many Brits do not. Just like certain English accents can be hard to understand. It's not always about words used. It's about speed and intonation as much as anything else. Plus certain phrases that can be English but are hard to understand at face value unless you understand the history behind them. Language and accents are complicated. I made this for a laugh and people with a similar sense of humour appreciate it. If it's not your thing, fair dooz - but don't act like everyone in the world understands all Scottish accents, because they don't.

      @anthonywhelan5419 7 років тому +9

      Danny Bhoy. My apologies. Gaelic spelling is it? Even though I'm Irish myself I was raised in Australia so I'm still not too familiar with the intricacies of the Irish or Scottish letter sound relationships, i.e. Siobhan. Stumps me every time. My favourite comedian would have t be Dave Allan RIP and Dara O'Briain. I quite like Stephen Colbert too. ps, Frankie Boyle is okay.

    No subtitles = reaches fewer people.
    It's basic maths, really. Even the most evenly delivered Londonian english needs subtitles - and not only to cater to those with hearing disabilities, but to cater to everyone who would have trouble following the sound of the voice alone.
    Pair the stand up routine with subtitles and it's easier for a lot of people to follow.
    But then again, I'm used to subtitles, living in a country where english is not the no.1 language (but it comes in as a close 2nd).

    • @somescottishguy191
      @somescottishguy191 7 років тому +2

      Gene Nelson yeah it isn't an easy task understanding some people in the UK. Especially Scotland. While most scots would call English their language, they only really write in English but tend to speak a mixture of English, Scots and Gaelic. Some words sound english, some sound slightly different and other words are swapped out for something else entirely. This is why no one can truly be fluent in any language as the same language evolves differently from place to place. It doesn't mean Brits can't speak English in it's purest form. It just feels wierd when we do. The same rules apply to many places in the states although most English speakers have little to no issue understanding Americans due to your movies, tv shows and music being so widespread.

To help him be understood better because I find him hilarious lol
