I;m from Swansea as well. I also lived for a few years in Tasmania - another place where there is a distinct north-south divide which doesn't show on any official maps. Also ,same as Ellas Edits, I lived in NE England for part of my childhood,
My fathers family were from South Wales though my grandmother was from mid-Wales, she spoke Welsh, I can remember her listening to the news on BBC Wales radio in the 1950's, I did spend some time at school there but we were not taught Welsh in the 50's..
From Wrexham too. Don't agree with his advise at the end. If you wanna see Wales, proper Wales go to West Wales, North or Mid, don't bother with Cardiff.
aprilia rsv4 definitely I happen to think the welsh , Irish and Scots all have tension with England it's mutual history of bad treatment don't you think ?
Sheep, Fields, and Farms....oh, yeah, and Beaches on the west coast are to die for - We got The Brecon Beacons, and a History any country in the world would gladly have. problem is, most is intermingled with English history, and because of that it gets ignored.
Richard John Gilbo of Gwent is that like Wales forever in welsh ? All I know are two others Alba gu brath ( Scotland forever in gaidhlig ) and the one for my ancestral homeland Erin go Bragh ( Ireland forever ) mums maiden name is welsh Tydd but we can only trace them back to lorrha in the northern part of county Tipperary so we don't know if they might have migrated from Wales beforehand

Screw the state idea, think of the UK like Westeros! And like the Northern Irish are basically the North/Winterfell, loads of whom don't want to be part of the UK.
Has he anglicized his accent on purpose he sounds exactly like people in my town, and i live in south england, or has he just grown up learning in an english accent?
In Wrexham we sound more English than Welsh because we're so near the English border but we still like to believe we have an accent. Some have stronger accents than others. It depends. I go to a Welsh school outside Wrexham therefore I have a stronger accent than others.
Rival football teams is just Wrexham vs Chester, i have lived ten minutes from Wrexham all my life an was born in Chester, shit always kicks off when they play cos half the people are english an half the people are welsh :P
its interesting to see how he thinks that welsh is going out of fashion, when it seems that welsh nationalism is really popular post brexit. i'd be interested to hear his take on it now
As a welsh person myself, I can honestly say this is gold lmao
+Sophie Campbell Never heard "bronnau fel brynnau Eryri" before, but I'll be using it all the time now
Same tbh

Chris Gallagher Tits like the hills/mountains of Eryri

+Angharad Mair How much did he butcher it?
+Whyx To be honest, it wasn't to bad. I've definitely heard worse. Just the one about the tits was worded a bit wrong😂
Wrexham vs Chester, bloody murders at that game mush!
Welsh sounds like drunk German tbh
+Christopher Wiggins drunker then

Nah...German sounds like sober Welsh!
NO IT FUCKING DOESNT
My fathers family were from South Wales though my grandmother was from mid-Wales, she spoke Welsh, I can remember her listening to the news on BBC Wales radio in the 1950's, I did spend some time at school there but we were not taught Welsh in the 50's..
As a Welsh speaker you can clearly tell a lot of these are just google translate and don't actually mean what he is saying 😂
Tomas Dobbins yeah im from north wales and i didnt understand anything from that video w just swear in english
Iv been told we don't speek proper Welsh down south im wondering what is proper Welsh en 🤔
north wales: has beautiful cities and towns
Ben:still promotes South Wales
As someone currently studying in north wales, the norths where it’s at
when he said the language is dying out I was confused because half my family speak welsh and their of varying ages
It's dying out as more people choose not to raise their children with the welsh language, therefore the number of speakers are falling.
I'm like ten minutes from Cardiff and I hear Welsh here constantly. Very odd for him to say that but he was from Wrexham mind.
From Wrexham too. Don't agree with his advise at the end. If you wanna see Wales, proper Wales go to West Wales, North or Mid, don't bother with Cardiff.
he's from Cardiff that's why lmao
Thanks Obama he's not Ben is from Wrexham ahah
Um why not?
I’m from the south like Carmarthen way so yeah come to the south it’s lush down here!
South is great.
As a person who used to learn Welsh I can say that the dwi'n hoffi coffi thing is so true
This is great I live the 10 minutes away Ben was talking about and it's all so accurate 😂😂
Sorry Ben but it isn’t dying out any time soon it’s even being taught in preschools now !!
I hope youtube doesn't monetize this
i think us Scots and the welsh share alot in common thanks the the english tension haha
aprilia rsv4 definitely I happen to think the welsh , Irish and Scots all have tension with England it's mutual history of bad treatment don't you think ?
Sheep, Fields, and Farms....oh, yeah, and Beaches on the west coast are to die for - We got The Brecon Beacons, and a History any country in the world would gladly have.
problem is, most is intermingled with English history, and because of that it gets ignored.
Proud to be Welsh

All I know are two others Alba gu brath ( Scotland forever in gaidhlig ) and the one for my ancestral homeland Erin go Bragh ( Ireland forever ) mums maiden name is welsh Tydd but we can only trace them back to lorrha in the northern part of county Tipperary so we don't know if they might have migrated from Wales beforehand

It's called an accent. I sometimes saybit like that too and I'm from wrexham

I love the intro title: "SPEAK FFYCIN WELSH". Anywhere you can get that on a bumper sticker?
I come from the same town as Ben
quality content.
wales sounds like delaware being in the shadow lol
According to New Zealand linguists, Welsh is no longer endangered. I hope they're right but foretelling the future is an exercise is futility. Thank you for the swear words. One of the most irritating myths about Welsh is that they're aren't any swear words.

This makes me happy to be labeled as the angry, Welsh Rugby player who loves to swear😂😂

Screw the state idea, think of the UK like Westeros! And like the Northern Irish are basically the North/Winterfell, loads of whom don't want to be part of the UK.
beautiful
Has he anglicized his accent on purpose he sounds exactly like people in my town, and i live in south england, or has he just grown up learning in an english accent?
+Whyx They're from Wrexham which is dead near Chester and Liverpool, the people there have northern-english accents
In Wrexham we sound more English than Welsh because we're so near the English border but we still like to believe we have an accent. Some have stronger accents than others. It depends. I go to a Welsh school outside Wrexham therefore I have a stronger accent than others.
Okay that makes sense :)
I'm from merseyside which is England but 10 minutes away from the border and Wrexham accents sound literally the same
Great video LMAO
looks like Tyrell Wellick from mr. robot
Wales gave the world Madoc who went to Sudbury ont. and discovered Platinum 1400 years ago
wrexham yer I live near there oswestery
I wish they´d incorporate this to the lyrics, would make them unique !
"Generic welsh pop punk band"
Could even go the Blink route and have the slogan be “Crappy Welsh Pop Punk”
what about Gareth Bale?
I had no idea these guys were from Wales, they kinda sound northern to me?? I just assumed they were from Sheffield or summet
Rival football teams is just Wrexham vs Chester, i have lived ten minutes from Wrexham all my life an was born in Chester, shit always kicks off when they play cos half the people are english an half the people are welsh :P
Half Welsh myself boiiiii
really funny
the funny thing is he doesn't sound welsh, his accent is very similar to mine and im from the wirral in merseyside england
Nope. His English accent is perfect as well as his Welsh. Overall I give a 69/420
