Good stuff, really enjoyed that! But at 0:15 it should be “…even WE…” not “… even us…” Accents aside, grammar matters, dear!
It’s a big giant who gives an F
I have seen this videos several times and I just now wondered how did the Liverpool natives decide on their terms such as kecks and bizzies?
I saw on google it was changed from kicks so how did they arrive to kecks as the change? Same question to bizzies?
Does it take away from the local culture to ask how natives arrive at their words?
why am I watching this... Im a Scouser
same
I wanna live in Liverpool to be able to watch every home match for LFC at Anfield and enjoy the atmosphere of the Kop
Eslam LFC the arkles does a decent pint lad
Dan Atherton get some decent lemo in there sometimes too! Don't get it of dodgy Dave's gear though it's pure moody.
to learn the proper english accent
You know she's a scouser when she immediately squares up with the camera as soon as she comes on
LOL had me weak!!!
When she said, people from Liverpool are very friendly. I nearly spit me coffee out lol. I wonder where the blonde is hiding her shank tho
@@smoker696969 Liverpool is a friendly place. Got the odd dickhead like everywhere, but most of it is welcoming.
@@smoker696969 I'm a Spaniard that's lived in the UK for 3~4 years and I've lived in London, Manchester and Liverpool. Visited some other places as well.
Scousers were BY FAR the friendliest in general. Met some really awesome lads and girls. It was fantastic. Even just random people working in supermarkets, cashiers, chippies, etc... were extra friendly in a really natural way (not like the fake friendliness you might encounter in London for example).
Lol
An old friend of mine based his whole PhD on the origination of the scouse accent, he could almost trace it back to a wealthy family who imported labour for the docks. The lyrical element was Irish immigration the harsh element came from Wales. So it’s really a doubly impacted Celtic accent overlain onto Lancashire English
I know some Welsh people and the way Nothing and similar words are pronounced in this video reminded me of their accent. Thought was my hearing playing tricks however you, sir, have given me a clean bill of health.
I'd love to read more about that, is it freely available?
The distinctive sound of the scouse is far more likely to be from the Dutch. Some words are definitely dutch. And the applies to cockney/essex. Both "sounds" are very different to their neighbours, thus not a progression. And both areas were frequented by dutch merchants.
That is legitimately interesting.
Literally came by to see if anyone commented on the origins. Thanks
Love a scouse accent. It's so musical, like some Irish accents
Actor Shaun Evans is from Liverpool, but born to Irish parents. His accent is magical! If you’re interested, you should look up his latest interview about his show Endeavor. 😊
There was a lot of Irish immigrants in Liverpool so it’s not surprising the accent would be influenced.
@@rachelcookie321 I've read that the Liverpool accent and the Manchester accent were both virtually indistinguishable from generic Lancashire accents prior to the Paddy Tatty Famine.
@@secretstarsomg, I just came to this video because I was fascinated by Shaun's accent!
It sounds very strange. I'm on the outskirts of London and these accents sound like they are from a completely different country. Even the London accents but rhyming slang at least makes sense.
Its like listening Carragher’s interview
Lol fr 😂😂
True 😂😂😂
Lol true 😅😅
you mean hahraher
So true man
Rebecca is swaying like you’re choosing her hair color on the character creation screen.

The European Union is a failing project. What was initially designed to be a trading bloc has slowly mutated into a political union. Very shady stuff.
underrated comment bro; her eyes also so squint ahahahahahahaha; i died laughing
My very, very first exposure to a British accent in 1967, (I was 8yo), was hearing John, Paul, George and Ringo.
Then, a few years later, I was fascinated by the line "she's the kind of a girl who makes the News of the World".
It sounded " she's the kind of a gell who makes the New of the Weld".
Scouse is by far the best English accent in the whole world. LOVE IT!
weeerld
Don't think there is much competition for the top English accent outside of England...
Aussie perhaps?
I am in Texas and I am on weekly conference calls with a Scouser, a Geordie, and someone from London(not sure what part) and one person from Brooklyn, NY. It is like being paid to attend a comedy show during working hours. Everyone has to rephrase almost every other sentence for the others to understand. Even the UK people can't understand each other sometimes.
Improvisation 101. lol.
yetijoeyetijoe that sounds hilarious
You should make it a conference call, and then hit record.
If you also tie in Indian tech support, then that would be comedy I would pay to listen to.
That sounds really fun. I want to experience something like that one day.
+r0blackst0ne, you should upload that video to UA-cam and then post the UA-cam link if you'd like others to see it.
Otherwise, EVERYONE will avoid the potentially surreptitious Russian link to avoid the host of VIRUSES that would come with clicking that link.
The funniest account ever.
When I first visited Liverpool
I thought I was in Germany.
Wieso wie in Deutschland? Wurde in Liverpool türkisch gesprochen?

I absolutely love the scouse accent! As an American who loves British telly i love being able to accurately decipher English accents because there is soo much amazing variations.
bs😂
@@user-co3gt3hr9f i fully aware the connotations the scouse and Northern accents in general have in the UK, but to me as a New Yorker, i enjoy it. That's just me.
@@rightweaponry908 why do you enjoy it if your american? just surprises me that's all
@@user-co3gt3hr9f it's very unique and expressive, i enjoy how different the regional accents are. I think regionality is cool, and as an American i have no cultural biases against any of the accents of the UK. I like them all✨
Rebecca seems like an oddly satisfying to look at person that both kinda scares and intrigues you. Like she would make you a bit uncomfortable but you wouldn't want her to leave. Not to mention she's got that cool accent.
im from Liverpool and yes we do have a very strong and harsh accent but some of the best people on the planet
Gerrit Süßmann AGREED!!
So excited to visit in May!
I'm not from liverpool but i do love the football team though!!!
Vincent Jackson how about Everton
haha... I've been a fan of the reds since i started watching football. btw sorry about yesterday lol ;)
As a broken English speaker, this gives me safety because I can now speak broken and people would think it's just some accents.
That's not how it works.
@@indigophanta8288 shhhh let them have their moment
😂😂😂😂
Well, they will, but I’m sorry to say they will likely know it’s an accent from another country. However, decent people will be courteous enough
😂😂😂😂😂
It is really so interesting how a small island can consist of so many accents and dialect for people to try and speak.
I was born, raised and live in Manchester. I've been going to Scouseland since I could drive in 1984. Liverpool is my favourite city and the scouse accent is my favourite accent.
I spend practically every other week in Liverpool either go for lunch, a walk, coffee or I stay overnight in a hotel.
Liverpool to me is my home, I love it! 'Scousers' are so funny, friendly and down to earth! Three of my partners have been Scousers - and I intend to have a forth! 🤣
It's my intention to live in Liverpool as I feel so comfortable there!
Thank God for Liverpool.
A lot of Irish emigrated to Liverpool in the last century, and some of the things mentioned are also in a strong Dublin accent.
Hah, it sounds nothing like it.
Did I say it sounds like the Dublin accent??? No. Read what is written - SOME of the things. Eg a lot of Irish people say 'right' the same way - ending with a soft s sounding t. Many Dublin people pronounce the 'th' sound to a d sound. In a strong Dublin accent 'nothing' is also pronounced nuttin'. Also the U sound in Ireland is the same here as an 'oo' sound. We also have the ch sound in Irish.
So scousers say dobblin instead of Dublin?
also welsh
Austin, true. A lot of immigrants came to Liverpool from Eastern Europe, places like Russia. This is why scouse can sound Russian 😁
I can guarantee most people watching this are scousers making sure theyre not butchering our accent hahaha

@Reflex what you chatting you punny, ye, seen the videos on ye channel, typical evertonian nit
Love to hear Rebecca and your other native speakers just talk for a while about anything. Long monologue would be awesome 👍
My mom is from Liverpool but moved to the USA in 1955. Her accent was a lot different. We did live there for a year 1967-1968 & I don’t remember the students at my school speaking it like Rebecca. I did love living there & have been back to visit cousins. I was born in Warrington which is not far from Liverpool. They are the friendliest people in England ❤
Thank you scousers for being so friendly, your city is beautiful.
x. Argentina
Juan Manuel Colombo You're more than welcome :)
I've got friends from Mar Del Plata. They've been here to visit.
Juan Manuel Colombo funny joke that.. Wait your serious
Scousers are only so nice to their blood relatives... though that makes most of them related anyway, everyone seems to be someone's cousin. I have yet to have had a day out where I haven't had someone say something disrespectful, cruel or judgemental here. How long have I lived here? My entire life. Liverpool sucks... and the accent is awful.
maybe you should move away dargalanaflitanip ????,and be with your own kind my friend , your statement in its self is cruel and judgemental , please find some happiness , amongst your own
Loved my two days in Liverpool during a trip to England. Friendly, quick to smile and helpful. Great people! It was a refreshing change from the rather unfriendly folk of London.
Jeff Morse glad you enjoyed it dude. And yeah southerners are not the friendliest.
Charlie KB true lol
and new zealand
it's actually bloody true, wonder if there some explanation to that, I'm from Sri Lanka and the southerners here are rude and evil bunch
I think being a huge port has something to do with it? Maybe we are just more used to or more welcoming of visitors.
Paddy Pimblett is a very good example for this accent. I love hearing rough nature of this accent, like it demonstrates the personality of that region, so lovely. Btw, Anna is very beautiful, its mesmerizing to watch her talking
It's not actually lovely though is it. It's well grim. The most lazy underpronouced bullshit that's only slightly worse than American english
PADDY THE BADDY
@@candyman9635 cry about it lad
Nar his voice is annoying. Don’t know where he’s from but his voice is horrible to listen to. Sounds like he’s putting it on and it’s arrogant. The north end of Liverpool speak like proper scousers.
@@cvxcfv baddy lost that fight last weekend. Topuria and the 155 top ten gonna crush him
You can really hear the German influence in the Scouse accent, especially with K. It’s pronounced exactly like ch in German.
The Scouse accent came about because of it's position in the country and as a sea port. It had a large immigrant Irish population in the 19th century and is also close to North Wales. It's a melting pot of various accents.
Indeed as a port town it has had a lot of intake, mostly from Ireland and Denmark/Norway, softening th into d, some German influences turning k /k/ into ch /x/, it's also interesting to see different accents, because they tell a lot bout peoplen deir history.
I've never been to England, this is my first time hearing a "scouse" accent, I've never even heard of the word before.
However, my grandparents were born to Austrian natives who made their way to the UK before coming to America.
I love imitating accents, dialects, even my friends and family members. But my grandmother would beat me if I spoke in non-standard American English when I was a child.
Nevertheless, I picked up this accent from somewhere, because when I imitate the English today, this is exactly how I speak.
Unless I'm imitating a member of parliament. That's entirely different.
Yeah, like Frankenstein's monster, it's a monstrosity...
@@potatosarenice3286 Actually Irish and Lancastrian.
I can work with scouse. Scottish accents on the other hand, they sometimes sound like they are gargling bulls balls while they speak.
I Love people from Liverpool, worked with them for over 6 years - Not a single problem, friendliest people on earth!
Mods, just don't leave your tools hanging around 😂 joking!
@BestCanKeanRob2 two things people from Liverpool don't like is the sun, and dirty mancs
@BestCanKeanRob2 lol theres more on benefits in manny you inbred scruffs haha
I know what city to visit when we go to England, then!
Mods & Tweaks thanks 😂✌🏻✌🏼
I will always remember how comfortable I felt in Liverpool when I attended Beatleweek 2013 and the friendly treatment I received. 13 years have passed and I am always looking forward to return to Liverpool !
American here. I had to turn subtitles on when Lizzie was on Great British Bake Off because I couldn't understand most of what she was saying until several episodes in. Darling young woman. She was fun.
I’m here because I’ve read somewhere that Jodie Comer has Scouse accent. She’s Villanelle in Killing Eve and she’s killing all the accents she can muster. Soooo talented!!!
That’s right. She’s an incredible actress.
OMG I'm here because I binged all of Mad Fat Diary (also starring Jodie Comer) and I needed to know if the actors were doing a real Lincolnshire accents (so naturally I'm exploring all of them). The protagonist probably had the most to adapt being from Glasgow.
I don't know if she is from Liverpool, but she is really really gooood...... Also, because when she changes her accent, she also changed her facial expressions too. So it's great acting.
She's from woolton Liverpool
SAME
I'm brasilian but I'm so obsessed with jodie comer's character and her person (I'm actually obsessed with everything that involves killing eve lol), and I just love her accent and how she can do lots of different accents
Jodie Comer (♥) has me here looking up Scouse accents.
Me tooo

For me, it was Jason Isaacs as Marshal Zhukov in Death of Stalin :)
Yea me too :)))
Same!
What a great educational video! I love learning about the accents. I just returned from a tour around UK including Liverpool. Although, I didn't have trouble understanding the locals, it's so much fun to learn how it works. Well done!
Thank you I have not realized how much of my scouse accent I have lost over the years living away from Liverpool. Bit the sosse is just under the surface a couple of days back in Liverpool I am sure I would sound like a native again.
They should have asked Jamie Carragher to do it, his accent is a perfect example.
Steven Samson lol
yea lol
How bout John Lennon though? He's from Liverpool
You're right he is, but, if this makes sense, scousers all have their own 'twang', someone from Bootle might sound slightly different to someone from Birkenhead, it's also relevant to Liverpool's geography, a port city where over the centuries people from all over have settled. The Beatles, even though they're scousers, still have and English accent with a scouse twist. Jamie Carragher on the other hand, well, God knows..
@@littlejohnnyturtle8770 Trent AA has a moderate scouse accent I think. Jamie on the other hand is very heavy.
So many different regional accents in one country. It's really interesting to me, compared to the ones we have in the States.
thanks to Brexit otherwise things will get confusing in 20 years
merahboy69
Ronald L. Abbey Yet Manchester is 35 miles away and the accent is completely different. As is the Lancashire accent, the area round these two major cities, but not part of them.
well..Indonesia have hundreds of languages..and in some place, they don't even speak Bahasa.. :)
we have lots of local accents in italy too, as the result of the many regional languages that italians call 'dialects' improperly, even if they have nothing to do with the italian language.
Curiosity over Dave Lister brought me here today. My son started watching Red Dwarf. Now he won't stop saying Bottle of water in a scouse accent. Figured I'd make it a learning opportunity. Thank you for the demonstration.
I went to Liverpool two years ago by train .It's circa 2 hours from London. Liverpool is a small charming city with its lovely people. They have a peculiar accent indeed .
We ain't that small
@@boxinghistorian2629compared to London you are
@Bill Jackson ye but we still ain't a small city
@Bill Jackson ludicrous comment. Liverpool is the 4th biggest city in England. London is big compared to all but 36 cities in the world. That doesn't make Liverpool small.
@@boxinghistorian2629 but this chap travelled from London. So to him you are a tiny city
Sounds a lil bit like german or dutch. "Come here" - "Komm her" in german very similar pronounciation.
That's exactly what I thought. The way they pronounce the k and the u remind me a lot of low german. When you look at the history of English language, it is a Germanic language... old english sounded very similar to low german or Dutch. So my wild guess is that Liverpool kept the "old" pronunciation of their language (which is the more german one) while the rest of the country developed into a more modern version
Finally the Linguistic Comment i was looking for! XD
@@rayalulu5475 You brought the words linguists like us would say
@@j-monk3063 thank you!!languages interest me a lot
@Luke Thomas The "ch" sound is also very prominent in german language. Thats why liverpool accent sounds a lot more like german and dutch than standart english.
When english people try to read german words and they dont know about the "ch" sound they always pronounce it like "k".
For example the english word "book" is "buch" in german.
If you try to read it without knowing of the "ch" sound you would pronounce "buch" like "buk" which sounds a lot like "book".
You can see the words are very close to another and the "ch" sound got changed over time to the "k" sound in english.
On the other hand the liverpool pronounciation is so much closer to actual german because they still got the "ch" sound.
So they would say "boch" instead of "book", which sounds a lot like the german "buch". almost no difference.
I need to go to bed. But the English are so fascinating
_Shane_Anigans_ I’m off to bed is better😉
Liverpool accent is so distinct
Funny how the name scouse comes from a contraction of 'lobscouse', which was a type of stew (Norwegian in origin), once popular among sailors, and is still eaten in Liverpool today. The vowals are a bit similar to Scandinavia but everything else is completely different
It is an incredibly attractive accent - it beams positivity and personality. Love it.
I was born in Liverpool but migrated to Australia when I was very young and speaking like a scouser. Now I have an Aussie accent and really would love to have my Liverpool accent back as really loving this video. My sister never lost it as she was a lot older
Liverpool accent is disgusting, Australian is way better.

UA-cam Algo Gods! This is so cool! I don't know how I stumbled upon this video but this is so neat. As someone who enjoys performing improv scenes, improving accents is always an important part of honing the craft. This helps so much!
I’m truly impressed by how different it sounds! I’m a non native english speaker I’m aware of the different accents but this sounds just too different I would dare to say I wouldn’t understand it, I might have to practice some listening with the scouse accent.

I studied in Liverpool for 7 months.I have the scouse accent.Because of my best scouser friend.But I’m not regret about that.Also I can say something about local people of Liverpool.They are absolutely amazing. To be frank,they are really friendly people👍🏻
ask those people what footy club they support I can guarantee u 90% will say efc
How did you develop a scouse accent in 7 months I've been living here for 5 years and mine is still only mild
@@goodisongang-efcmatchdayvl5224 I spent my toddler years between Liverpool and Skelmersdale and developed a really thick Scouse accent. It's more Lancs now, but whenever I'm with a Scouser it just snaps right back in
you have a scouser accent after 7 months :P good joke man.
A Scouse accent is not a desirable attribute to have. May be OK in Merseyside. but outside that area you will be looked at with scorn. Lose it. I had a Lancastrian accent and when I moved to London people took the piss.

As a German I have to say A LOT OF things sound German to me in the Liverpool Accent. The K is like a German CH as in Ich (I). "Up" also sounds the way a German would pronounce it without any English knowledge, super interesting.
I'd have say that it sounds a lot like a dutch accent, especially the one from Netherlands
That's interesting, so you're saying, without actually saying, if one became familiar with he Scouse accent, it would be a good stepping stone to learning German. Pretty cool 😎
I don't speak german (i wish i could) but as soon as she made that sound I immediately thought that clearly sounds like german
there is a surpising elements that line up with welsh and the welsh accent too
I'm agree with you, my grandparents are German and when they speak English it sounds like the Scouse accent. Absolutely. Maybe that accept came from Germany. Greets from 🇨🇱

In case anyone else is wondering where the word 'scouse' came from :
"Scouse is a type of stew, typically made from chunks of meat, usually beef or lamb, potatoes and onion. It is particularly associated with the port of Liverpool, which is why the inhabitants of that city are often referred to as "scousers". The word comes from lobscouse, a stew commonly eaten by sailors throughout northern Europe in the past, and surviving in different forms there today" Wikipedia
My dad ate some scouse yesterday. It’s the first time I can remember seeing scouse. I’m not sure where he got it from because he only had one bowl.
@@rachelcookie321 I hope he enjoyed it! I'm assuming it just tasted like regular stew. I personally love beef stew and make it a lot in the winter here in Canada. Definitely a comfort food. 😀
My neighbor is from Liverpool here in Albuquerque, NM. I couldn't understand him at all at first. He is very friendly. My Grandma's family was from Middlesex.
My mother: China
My father: Thai
My home school teacher: Scouser
My neighbor: Wales
Me: Grows up around these
My pronouncing: Duck=Dhguck Food=Fungd
Its gotta be hard sometimes lmao
Did you ever meet Steve Jenkins?
My grandad was a scouser who emigrated to Australia. I swear I understood only about a third of what he said to me my whole life. My mum didn’t pick up his accent much except for the odd word.
He said Beth, ya a grat gurl wi a grate footure. Go gurl, luv yaz from Grandpa.
Only a third of what he said 😂
I believe the scran is an old nautical acronym: sultanas, currant, raisins, and nuts. It was a staple rations for sailors
Such a great and easy to understand video!

When I traveled in Poland I met two couples from Liverpool. They’re super nice and offered me a lot of help, but they had to repeat their words at three times then I could understand since I’m not a native speaker. Their tone makes everything they said sounds cheerful and I love it very much. Since then Scouse is the most adorable accent for me :)
Its such a strange accent! As a Scottish dude, its like somewhere in between Northern Irish, Northern English and Southern Scottish. Like they just decided to go with all of them at once!
Peter Werninck Glad it wasn’t just me who hears this! I’m an American and even I can hear the Irish and Scots influences.
It is a Northern English accent and Northern Irish is one of its many influences
Welsh is another influence
Historically there would have been far higher migration from what is now the Republic, especially the mass migration of the Great Famine, and post Famine period. The migration from the north-east of Ireland (Northern Ireland) is only proportionally more significant in the last 100 years.
Haha, I'm from Stockport, South Manchester, and back in 2000, I was working in North Wales living in tented staff accomodation.

Liverpudlian friends in the USA.
I love them so much ...
As an American LFC fan I’m just watching this to get more knowledge of the culture.
Damn I hate modern Football

Let me guess, Fc Köln fan?
How about you follow your local team and stop being a cringe-inducing clueless glory-hunter
Tbf astrolillio have you heard the chanting is US footy... don’t blame him
@@astrolillo Lol I'm good.. LFC is a family of millions from all around the world. You're the clueless one for thinking a club as massive as Liverpool should only have local supporters..
I have lived in liverpool my whole life and I have never heard anyone say "look out its the bizzies",
maybe you aren't a criminal :-D
These type of vids deal in such stereotypes!.People observing from the O/S but not actually interacting..It's the same in London ,u have had so many transplants to the City(from within&abroad) in the last 20+ yrs or so,and even though they live&work in certain area's,they usually never actually mix with the locals("Good morning" is most likely about the full extent of their experience,&interaction)
So If u do make an effort to get to know the locals,as best u can,then after an while,u pay no attention to the local accent.
And from my past experience"Scousers"are some of the most approachable&friendly people in the UK..
@Johnny maybe
Ye it’s ‘lad it’s the bizzies’
I'm a scouser and I have heard that saying many a time especially from my brothers growing up, lol
The intro is like the opening to a harry enfield sketch. Dubliners use 'kacks' for trousers as well!
thanks, i found this really imformative. i've been in such a bad mood, or cob on LOL, as recently my wife passed away in a tragic shotgun accident. since then i have learnt trigger disaplin. yours sincerely Mr Weinstine
I'm from the Wirral I get called a scouser everywhere except Liverpool.
MrMG124 maybe ur not a propah scouser. ;)
Lots of scousers move back and forth to the Wirral, my family are all scousers both side, but I was raised up in the Wirral. It's a shame everyone's so negative about people from the Wirral because we love the city of Liverpool and are proud to be from near the city.
Claire Clarke nah the Wirral is full of wools
Liverpool is full of robbing scallies with no teeth.
Nice isn't it when people generalise.
Claire Clarke yeah that's true Clare you slag
I'm Latina, from Costa Rica and this accent Is beyond beautiful, never heard it before, sounds a bit Scottish, even Icelandic, so different from the England accent we always listen to, I need to hear more, sounds way toooo good.
The Scouse woman here has a soft and pleasant accent but in general the Scouse accent is harsh and discordant.
The people aren’t beautiful - check out the local newspaper online the Liverpool echo - here’s a selection of today’s headlines:
Snivelling yob broke woman's jaw when told off for urinating in sink
Cocaine-fuelled baby biter, crossbow killer and 'BearPaedo' jailed this week
Cannabis farm found growing in sheltered accommodation for OAPs
Sofa dumped on roof as fly-tipping 'epidemic' hits new heights
Wife left to fester by husband is among nine horrific neglect cases to be reviewed
- no wonder the most important scouse phrase is ‘look out, it’s the bizzies”
@@strontiumstargazer3124 you should read the Manchester evening news its 10 times worse
affectionatepunch Crikey! I’ll be giving that read a miss. I’ve almost lost my faith in humanity reading the Liverpool Echo. Thanks for the warning. Happy New Year!
@@strontiumstargazer3124 not like you dont have an agenda now is it?
You're two lovely women. Your presentation is not only educational; but, a lot of fun and enjoyable. Thank you!
I could listen to both of you talk all day long.
I will marry a scouse in a heartbeat not being able to help my self. That accent melts me.
Really. I’m from Yorkshire and I find it so annoying 😂😂
That explains why I find difficulty understanding Jammie Carragher
yer wha' ?
Not only carra but trent Arnold too
Boss tha’...!!
😂😂😂😂😂
How bout me boy harry kane couldn't undastand ay word
Going to Liverpool next Summer. Going to see and hear Joe Walmsley ( Scouser in the Room)!
Thank you for making a blueprint to understand what Darren Till and Paddy Pimblett are saying.
I was mesmerized and fascinated by BREAD TV series and all The Boswells the very moment my Russian ears heard their unique accents back in 1995! My favourite TV series since then! Two thumbs up! From Russia with love!
Great video. Very enlightening. I am often puzzeled when my scouser friends do their own words in our Whatsapp groups. When I moved to Liverpool and heard them speaking at the football pitch sideline I thought that cant be English. I did not understand a single word. But now I am used to it and really enjoy it as a very friendly kind of language.
I’m on here because my GF is a scouser and I’m still trying to get use to it, and I’m a Texan 😂
I enjoying England though so different 😌
Lovely to hear that ‘k’ sound, its exactly the same like we Dutch people use, for a moment I thought she was speaking dutch with ‘fake bake’
This is so enlightening. I love the fact that they are friendly and down to earth
You might want to put a check on that.
They THINK they are and they SAY they are, but they're no nicer than Mancs or Weegies
All the people from the big Northern cities, especially those with a big Irish population, are sound.
@@fatdaddy1996 Liverpool are known to be friendly and nice though
@@fatdaddy1996 I think Scousers are considered super friendly because of their sense of humor, which is witty and always on point. I can imagine that taking the mikey out of each other is a national sport in the port of Liverpool and that all Scousers are proficient piss-takers from the moment they open their mouths to utter their very first "a lorra lorra laughs", and I guess because other Brits get to laugh very hard when visiting their Merseyside cousins, they confuse that dopamine rush caused by laughter and friendly banter with actual, real friendliness born out of good will from the part of their hosts, who probably don't care if their audience gets crushed under a loose train the next second because they know they can walk a little bit further down the street and find a new audience to cheer and clap on their puns. Because they are Scouses and they sure know how to tell a joke. In summary, the funnier you are, the friendlier people think you are.
My teacher was a Scouser and because of that I developed this accent 😁 and I really love it sounds so unique friendly
You should sue your teacher.
Speech Therapy for Non-Scousers, love it, like!
Lol, I don't know if I'm a fan of the scouse accent but it's rather beautiful, and so unique. Great clip.
