      And how many people have you heard from Alabama and what parts of Alabama were they from? Just like MS and LA there is an accent difference from north to south. To me people sound more “country” the further north in those states. The term Lower Alabama includes Alabama and parts of Florida and I hear no difference in their accents or notice any major cultural differences yet people love to say Florida isn’t Southern and group the state as a whole. I often go to Mobile to visit my family for Mardi Gras festivities. That is not part of the culture in every part of Alabama.

      I think it has grown over the last 30 years where the schools and local news have pushed for accents that are more in line with Hollywood movies and TV shows. Most States with big cities, their accent in the city will be more like someone from California, but people who are in the rural areas cling to the more original accents people had in that area over the last 150 years. Schools and media are normalizing a certain accent in the last 20-30 years.

    The feeling the british girl has about Harry Potter stereotype, it's exatcly the same feeling brazillians feel when people say "Do you speak spanish?" (Because we don't. We weren't colonised by Spain, but Portugal), also "Rio de Janeiro it's the capital ?" NO, IT'S NOT THE CAPITAL. It was before once in a time, but not anymore for a long time ago,
    And the worst of all: "You don't look like a brazillian." Well, maybe because brazillians are all different from each other.
    Brazil it's the 5th biggest coutry in world and we do have people from different origin and culture here, europeans, asian, africans, middle east people. So, don't tell a brazillian "he/she doesn't look like a brazillian" we are one of the most mixed countries as USA and Canada are as well.

      Actually, there are several countries (of which Ireland is one) that use the term soccer: United States, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Ireland, Japan, South Africa, South Part Of Philippines, and Papua New Guinea.
      Also, don't forget that soccer was created by the British, as a shortened version of Associated Football to distinguish it from Rugby Football (ruggers and soccer). Also, soccer is used in a sports show in the UK (Soccer Saturday). So, while the majority of countries use the term "football," many other countries have their own version of football and often use soccer to differentiate it.

    Great to see someone from the American South! 😁 One Southern stereotype I dislike is that we are not as smart as other people. The stereotype of hillbilly, bumpkin people who lack even basic knowledge and intelligence. I know plenty of people with super thick Southern accents, grew up “in the sticks,” and all the stereotypical things who are accomplished classical pianists, top-of-their-field scientists and physicians, and pretty much any other “brainy” stereotype. A person’s accent or where they live shouldn’t make people assume they are unintelligent.

      Precisely. And that applies to immigrants as well. People look down on people who struggle speaking English, or have a foreign accent, and little do they know those very people are well educated, doctors, engineers, artists, scientists, etc. It's not easy expressing your thoughts in a language you're not used to speaking/didn't grow up speaking, and people assume you're an idiot because of that. People judge others a lot just by the manner of someone's speaking.

      Accent and dialect shouldn't make people think someone is stupid or lower class, but it unfortunately does. I personally try not to buy into it, although statistically people from the Northeast have higher IQs and better education. Even then, people stereotype northeastern accents as dumb or lower class unfortunately.

      I do call it soccer deliberately around Brits because it's really cringe how they get so uptight over it. We can call it whatever we want because it's not our (Aus/NZ) main sport and it is seen as a posh/effeminate pastime. It's mainly played by young kids, private-school kids and a handful of immigrant communities here.

      Scots will say 'Gonnae'(gone-ay), as in "gonnae no dae that", we could also say "i dinnae wannae dae that". "dae" is pronounced just like "day", and means "do". "Wannae" is literally "want to", "Dinnae" means "don't". We use that suffix "ae" a lot, which would be the equivalent of "a". Other examples would include "huvnae" meaning "haven't", "tae" meaning "to", "adae" which generally means "going on", or "the matter with", so could be used to ask "Whit's adae wi ye?", meaning "what's wrong with you?"/"what's the matter with you?".

    Because of child labor laws and school requirements most movies use older actors. But it’s not uncommon for high school jocks to be built. A lot of teens purposely bulk up.
    I do think white English people are generally more pale than American white people. . I remember going to London and thinking these are the whitest white people I’ve ever seen in my life. Some looked translucent. In the USA people that shade might get asked if they are ill. May be a combination of sun exposure and genetics because I think Americans tend to have more variety in our DNA with darker Europeans, Indigenous and African.

Most are basically 100% European. It may also have to do with the diversity of European heritage in the US, like you said.

It seems to be that in the South, there’s a lot of more of traditional ‘Englishness’, more conservative values, and also the way they talk is for some weird reason closer to some kind of generic ‘British’ English, with just a little more polite language. I can’t really define too well what it is, but there’s just something in the culture there that would make these people go along well, and like I said, there just seems to be a natural ‘flow’ between these two women that you rarely see.

Hopefully, when I ask the child what they got out of the movie, I'll hear something like "Most of the bad wizards aligned with Voldemort out of fear. Harry shows courage by standing up for his friends even when they're temporarily unpopular." Then I'll know they were paying attention, and hopefully they've also learned that cursing someone that offended you with a nasty rash isn't a solution to the problem the two of you are having. If I don't hear something along those lines, we'll be having a longer conversation.

I honestly think i never had that conversation because they always found some way to make me hate the antagonist. As long as I understood who the bad guys were then i was good to go.

    Legal to marry 3rd cousins in Alabama? I knew a great man, now passed away, who lived in Florida when I knew him but was from Alabama. He was married practically all his life from an early age to his double first cousin. None of his children had birth defects although a double first cousin is practically the same genetically as a full sibling. I think they are more genetically related than to a half sibling.
    At any rate, the increased likelihood of congenital defects from marriage to first cousins is exaggerated. Therefore I think the stigma and illegality in some states is unfortunate. I know of people who lived in my community who adored one another and would have, but for stigma and illegality would have married. They enjoyed each other's company for years. Our ideas against incest come from the Bible, except that the Bible does not for forbid the marriage of first cousins, but forbids closer relations whether by affinity or consanguinity. For purposes of law I therefore think the marriage of first cousins should not be forbidden to prevent birth defects, though there may be heightened risk of birth defects if families keep marrying first cousins generation after generation as Europeans royals were wont to do as well as royals of many other cultures worldwide.

    Most teenagers in American films probably look bigger because they’re played by 30-year-old actors. 😂
    But yeah, I think the guys I grew up with were also fairly used to some form of manual labor, which would account for some of the thickness. And 100% on the sports. Not just playing sports, but (especially with football) there’s an emphasis on bulking up so their size/stats help them to get recruited to colleges.

      Oh yeah that's actually a really good point about aiming for colleges. They're not only a bigger deal here as sports themselves but often the only way many could ever *get* an education. English university just doesn't have that as a concern.

      @@Kaalyn_HOW That’s definitely a part of it for many, but college sports are a celebrity culture of their own. So even when the financial part doesn’t play a role, I think there would still be a big drive to play at that level.

    Yo American teenagers are no different most of them are normal looking teenage dudes it's just that Netflix makes you think teenagers in America are buff and hardcore gym fanatics.
