Shawn Mendes Teaches You Canadian Slang | Vanity Fair - Розваги
"Canadian slang"
Legit southern Ontario slang lmao
he legit said pickering slang, the channel just titled it canadian slang
@@playinonn64 Yeah there's a few general ones like "timmies", "Toque"' and "mickey" but a lot of it seems to be specifically Ontario slang. Like i have never heard over half of these slang in western Canada or its just a different variation like saying "bud" instead of "guy".
Wasted seconds of life to discover half of this isn't slang.
Don't read my name ;)/
If we’re being honest, southern Ontario is all of Canada
"that guy's a beauty" is the most canadian thing i've ever heard
And if you want to get hella Canadian you just shorten it to 'beaut' hahah
@@coachholly21 yess I use to hear that more than beauty lmao
@@coachholly21 I’m Australian and we also say beauty and beaut.
jeez we don't say that-
This guys a beaut.
DO NOT TELL ME HE JUST BROUGHT UP PIONEER VILLAGE
Now everyone around the world can share in our field trip nostalgia hahaha
i LIVED for pioneer village
There was another trip we went on in grade school that I always think is pioneer village but is something different. I'm pretty sure most times were in the winter and we'd be in group scavenger hunt type things. There was a building sort of like a classroom we'd chill in as well. Did y'all go on that trip too?
@@EscapePlanSkateboarding outdoor education centre ?
Does he mentioned black creek pioneer?I’ve been there three times they didn’t even gave me a toffee.😂
Is it just me or is this mostly Canadians watching to see if he’s right.
hahahah yes
Yup.
Is he right?
@@taylachurch1746 yeah (well in general yeah, the more Toronto-based slang I'm not so sure about lol)
yes but i barely ever heard of these or use them idk
the way Shawn explained every word PERFECTLY
Shawn could be speaking gibberish and it would still be perfect😂❤️

@@moon1231 its super GTA based!
@@moon1231 a lot of it might just be Ontario based
interviewers: you're american, right?
shawn: I AM CANADIAN

I'm sorry if I'm being annoying but guys it's my dream to be famous and help other people. Please check out my music if you have the time, it was made on my phone because currently I can't afford a PC or studio. I'm promoting here because I think that you guys will be mature enough to listen to what I'm trying to say as well. Search up "k grip" and you will find my music channel. Thanks a lot, I'm very sorry if I was being annoying. 🙏
ah yes, my favourite slang term; durham region transit
who makes me late for everything every day😪
I'M DEAD LMAO
🤣
Lmfao
BYE
there's also the
"yeah, no" which means no
"no, yeah" which means yes
"no, yeah, no" which means no
and "yeah, no, yeah" which means yes
Yes 🤣
also if your friend is complaining and you're reassuring them that they're in the right, you can say 'yeah no for sure'
@@kablaaamo there’s also yeah no obviously 😂
Same in Australia too!
Hahah similar to New Zealand
“Yeah, nah” = no
“Nah, yeah” = yes
I never thought I’d hear him say “Whose mans is this?” 😂
we been saying that in new york idk if thats canadian
i didn’t know that was a canadian thing haha
@@dulcevasquez1336 ikr fr tho
Waited the whole video for it😂
@@christinaolesen8047 its toronto and british slang
its more like "Shawn Mendes teaches you things about the GTA"
Why did this make me laugh so much
Omg why is this so true
I think the "Bare" was the tipping point for GTA talk lol!
I grew up in the GTA and have never even heard some of these lol
LOL i haven’t heard mickey or 26 but I’m only 17 so... nvm
Most of these aren’t slangs... The GO Train is the brand of train... Ajax is the name of a town...
whoever found these words needs to get fired😂
Ajax is also a cleaner/bleach
It's not a brand at all which is even funnier. GO is just "Government of Ontario"
GO Trains along with GO Buses are part of GO Transit (now Metrolinx) which is a Crown agency that manages public transport in Ontario.
that's true 😂😂😂
I really wish they had him explain "yeah no for sure" LOL
probably because “yeah no” “no yeah” is infamously california slang haha
😆😆
“a mickey of vodka”
that is the cutest thing i have ever heard
Ikrrr that just sounds adorable
ua-cam.com/video/Z5UrU2psZwg/v-deo.html
Wait Mickey isn’t everywhere?
@@hannaheckert843 at least not here in the US i have neverrrr heard anyone say it before. never even heard it in like movies or shows tbh
@@camilachaos4490 omg hi queen
I'm so proud that he's Canadian. We really represent some of the most down to earth artists in the industry.
Justin Bieber... *coughs*
@@anninapintasantamaria3283 don’t come for Justin🥺
@@anninapintasantamaria3283 I mean he was fine till he left Canada also I think he's better now.
@@anninapintasantamaria3283 Justin is actually VERY down to earth. Watch his recent documentaries and interviews and stop judging for no reason.
@@anninapintasantamaria3283 I think Justin Bieber grew up a lot since he first started in the industry. Yea we all make mistakes but I truly think he's owned up to them. Also his song with Shawn is literally the best!!!!
How is Ajax slang. Lmao it’s literally a city
Literally what I was thinking 😂
Thank you 😅
Ajax is Bleach in the USA lol
@@Jo-lk2xt yeah we have Ajax here as well lol but it’s also a city
@@cma8878 😊 are you in Canada or USA?
When people don't realize how big Canada is and that people all over Canada aren't the exact same. People in BC would have no idea what he is talking about.
Also people living in Pickering, over the age of 35
Lmao im in bc and i kept thinking this too, some of these i was like wtf ive never heard that! Like “guy” never said guy its always bud haha
Most of it is GTA specific slang
So true. Some of it is age specific but my T. people say most of this and we have no idea what they are saying.
Also in BC and had no idea about this “bare” thing? Is that only the youths???? Lol
Pioneer village was a right of passage for Ontario Kids. Going to Pioneer village as child is burned into my mind.
Right😭 so nostalgic
To think I went on the same school trips as him
i remember the blacksmith so well
Yep. I went there plenty of times growing up in The Golden Horseshoe. Storybook Gardens was another one.
@@Liv-hx9xx i’ll never forget the S hook
honestly, i could listen to his voice all day long and don’t get bored
Same girl same
IKRRRR
Simp
ua-cam.com/video/4SbkgLRKwCQ/v-deo.html ramen
Don't read my name ;)))
Some of these words are not slang, like Ajax, Go Transit?? Those are just the names of a town and a brand in the Greater Toronto Area
Lmao. Man really said pioneer village 😂😂😂
“That’s jokes”
*laughs in Canadian*
bro I swear I say that everytime, can't lie it's really is a Canadian thing
The “I love being Canadian, I love the words that we use” part was so sweet
This isn’t slang, this is mostly just words for cities and companies.
he didn't pick them-
Most are slang. A handful are places/things. Washroom is more of a Canadianism (common word usage) rather than a slang. Ajax could be slang if it was Jax, just as Peterborough is Ptbo/Pdot, Oshawa is Dirty Schwa or the Schwa, Toronto is T.O., Hogtown, The 6ix, etc.
Me: *lives in Toronto all my life*
Shawn: teaching things about Toronto and the GTA
Me: THIS IS INTERESTING
My boyfriend just admitted he'd leave me for Shawn in a heartbeat. The jokes on him because I would do the same.
That's tough
Ahahaha this is gold 🤣
That’s jokes lmao
Bruh 😂
I think we ALL would
“that’s jokes *giggles* thts funny” i can’t he’s adorable🥺
Ew
@@JesusFriedChrist ew you watching him n thinking he’s ew💀
The way he laughed only by reading it 🤣
I let out the most disgusting laugh when Go Train came up. Its just a train. Its not slang. It means Government of Ontario
Lmao that’s what it stands for??
Born and raised in the 6 and I just learned that now
i NVER knew GO stood for something lmaooo and i took that train to school practically everyday
Its also literally a train
@@isabellameneguzzi6490 same lol
One never *smokes* a dart, one *hacks* a dart. "Hey guy, I'm just gonna step out to hack a dart."
Alright guys, there’s no such thing as “Pickering” slang LOL. All of this is general Ontario slang.
I think they did that because so many Canadians (including me lol) complained whenever they called Ontario slang "Canadian slang." They just went a bit too specific haha
*Southern Ontario
ive lived in 3 provinces and allll three use this span and I know more do. not just covid infected Toronto
ua-cam.com/video/4SbkgLRKwCQ/v-deo.html ramen
toronto slang **
"it's getting cold, please put your toque on" please i love him
“Canadian slang”
Vanity fair - “Durham Region Transit”
What...🥴🥴🥴
😂😂😂
Omg your profile picture 😍😍😍😍
This isn't slang. It's literally the names of the businesses/transit services.
This was a low effort attempt at our "slang".
Well so kay be Canadians are so good hearted that for them Slangs mean transit services😂
🤣
When you find out the “washroom” is Canadian?!?🤭
I was like "wait that isn't universal?"
I always thought everyone said this???? I am confusion
Like what?!? To me bathroom is more used in homes and then washroom is like in public places. I feel really awkward asking where the bathroom is in public places. Washroom seems more polite
i had no clue...
I was in an American airport and asked for the washroom.
In a stereotypical southern accent, she replied: “you mean the baathroom?”
when shawn said “who’s mans is this ..?” BYE I NEVER THOUGHT I’D HEAR HIM SAY THAT AHA
GIRL I-
why not? Isnt it a common thing to say?
For me, I use "washroom" for public places and "bathroom" for homes/intimate places. I had no idea that washroom is Canadian slang. I thought it was universal lol 😂
As a Brit i do not use “ wash room” Or “ rest room” we call it “ toilet” or bathroom” or if we want to be half arsed about it and use slang we call it “ bog” that’s our slang word for it 😊
It's not slang really, it's just a word we use. We also use "bathroom" too and when we're at restaurants, etc. we frequently also use "restroom"...
i think bathroom is more used for a private residence, and washroom is more used for a public space in Canada lol
Literally, Shawn Mendes makes me so proud to be Canadian cause he just OWNS it and isn't shy about it.
i know!
Drop the skincare routine, Mendes.
Yeah, don't be shy. Although he's just gonna go ahead and say “i just drink tons of water”, which he does but dayum boy water never did me this good.
I think it's called "being Portuguese". Seriously all the Portuguese kids I knew in school looked like him
Good genetics, and young. Wake up, wash face. There you go,,,
Check out Francisco Lachowski (Brazilian born, Portuguese and Polish roots). Sculpted by the gods...
Yess 😁
I didn’t realize how Canadian I was until I watched this. I mean seriously I thought half of these were normal in the US💀💀
same i didnt know they didnt say washroom
LITERALLY SAME OMG
i cant believe americans dont say whos mans like I really thought they did
@@synergous571 I think we do lowkey maybe it’s regional
@@synergous571 I swear that sounds so normal to me. Why is it so strange to them like y’all aren’t the only mainly English speaking country 💀
loafting is the most frustrating word of life. LOAFING. THE WORD IS LOAFING.
correct.
Exactly, loafing.
the fact thst shawn said WHOSE MANZ IS THIS is so funny ugh I love him
me when shawn posted the tiktok of him dancing: whose man?
Yess haha
mans*
lmaoo let him live his bad dancing life
ua-cam.com/video/Z5UrU2psZwg/v-deo.html
stopppp that tiktok was adorable
idk why but shawn knowing toronto/pickering slang is so uncalled for to me like i never thought abt it
He is so proud he makes me proud of Canada and I'm not even canadian
I don't know why but "guy" made me laugh!! this was entertaining!
Why did you put emphasis on guy
He used it wrong too lmfao it's "my guy"
It's funny. It's actually a name and when he said what he called the proper pronunciation for Guy, he actually said it in French. :)
Guy..is probably french! and, maybe not young coz .this name is not used here since 1900 lol.
god shawn is so effortlessly attractive
SHAWN IS GLOWINGGG😌
The way he effortlessly said all the slang in the right intonation and everything. You know he a real one haha.
"I love being Canadian, I love the words that we use" was so sweet, aw! 💜
I really like when he says ‘i love being canadian’. That is so canadian 😭😂
THIS IS THE MOST SOUTHERN ONTARIO THING EVER
Bruh I thought everyone used WASHROOM ... Why would anyone use BATHROOM when there isn't a BATH inside ?
In Jamaica we say we’re going to the “bathroom” too when it’s really a restroom/ washroom 😆.
YESSSSSS
Or maybe they use restroom too? Not sure, but totally agree about the bathroom comment
Exactly, once you leave your house it's a washroom, you do your business, wash your hands and get out. Why would I even want to take a bath at the Mall or an airport? The whole thought is frightening, bro, had me some soap please.... not. I heard the use of restrooms in the USA, too. And why would I rest in a public washroom. Firstly it is the least likely place I would rest. If I were to rest I would likely be arrested as the only reason to lurk in a washroom you are either are drunk or a loitering pervert. Canadians have it right on this one WASHROOM, get in, wash hands get out. Done.
I'm Canadian, and when I went to England and asked for the washroom everyone told me that I spoke so proper. They said: "Here we'd say 'Where's the toilet.' Lol!
Wait... they don’t say “whose mans is this?” in America? 😂😂
ikr I was confused
I thought they did-
They do now....took a while to get here
Yeah they do...it just took them quite a while
Never heard it in my 30+ years on earth, but we do say "who's this guy?" which is the same thing.
So much of this is UK slang too, and both are influenced a lot by the Caribbean.
Yeah, especially countries like Trinidad and Tobago, Jamaica, Grenada, Saint Lucia, Barbados ect.
because in the 16th century, british expeditions explored and later settled along the atlantic coast. it was also known as british north america and tons of british men and women lived in canada. if you want to know more there’s a wikipedia site: act of union 1840.
yeah especially that’s jokes and bare, say that all the time in the UK
You should here Toronto slang-
Yeh I say bareee a lot😂
i don’t forget he’s canadian but this is the MOST canadian i’ve ever seen him
Hey neighbour haha, i saw it 💪🏼 it’s “Guy” pronounced like guitar
Haha I thought of u as soon as he said guy.
DRHOBS my guy!!! you neighbours with Shawn Mendes fr?
Like in french pronunciation??
He’S trying to hold his accent lol, specially when he’s giving examples like bare food lmao. Man trying to hide his Toronto accent lol
**MANZ
It works so much better with the accent though
Trying to act straight
DEADASS😭
@@MrRaErickson wtf??
As a Canadian, I didn't realize any of these is considered slang
Most of them aren't. The only ones that were were "what you saying?", "bare" and "whose mans is this?"
@@ghost_curse There were more slang than that those three.
I'm seeing Shawn everywhere these days and I'm not complaining
@crustymoonz Why are u here if u don't like Shawn?
You're everywhere 😂
@crustymoonz no he ain't did you forget he was a musician before he dated Camilla? Ever heard 'stiches?'
I’m seeing you everywhere and I’m not complaining 😂

He's gotten hotter these day, probably because of the hair and tan skin
You mean he's been hot.
But I agree!
Pickerings very own Shawn Mendes. Love to see him reppin Durham region. Really happy to see this as a Pickering-Ajax resident.
His talking voice is so calming.
Drinking game -- take a shot every time Shawn says Pickering.
shawns lowkey a good teacher
@Sidnee Love BAHAHAHHAHAHAHA
you know they canadian when they say "T'rono" instead of Toronto
or trawna
Well, there's different levels really. If you live in Toronto for a while it becomes more like Trawna. Most Canadians tend to say Torono, but some say it fully.
I pronounce it To-Ron-To. But I wasn’t born here but have spent majority of my life here.
@@s.c2376 Shocking. What is "majority of my life"? What is your background?
He is so good at explaining
The bread and jam seems really important to him.
It was important to me too 🥺
nono you dont understand its bread and jam while theres snow everywhere. Sometimes they make maple syrup too
You could see them bake the bread there in kilns wearing pioneer clothing. It was pretty tasty to get some, especially because Pioneer Village usually required a bus ride and a lot of walking with your class. 🙂
Field trips where you get food are the BEST! I will always remember pancakes and maple candy at the sugar shack.
The fact that I’m Canadian and NEVER thought any of these words/language was abnormal is ✨ Beyond ✨ me
shawn mendes talking about pioneer village unlocks a memory for all ontario kids
4:28 Shawn sometimes can be so random, I love him
when shawn gets a haircut i’ll be so sad and happy at the same time
Yeah I didn't like this hair at first but now I'm emotionally attached to it lol
@@picklethepickle6680 ikr, he looks so good in both, i guess we are used to his short hair
THE TORONTO SLANG IS SO LOUD
He don’t even sound like we do. Come to scarabs that’s were u here the slang
“5th grade” this Canadian has only ever heard of “grade 5” 😂😂
i can see why he as a celeb would be Americanised since they go down to la so often. either way, sometimes i let 5th grade slip out but then correct myself with grade 5 lol
Only Shawn can explain slang so sincerely
As someone who lives near Pickering, JESUS CHRIST THIS IS SO SPECIFIC
RIGHT?! I was expecting typical Canadian slang like toque
Right lol they really did their research
Lol I was going to say that!
i KNOW RIGHT LIKE PIONEER VILLAGE THE ANOUNT OF TIMES I WENT THERE
Being able to relate to something as specific as a school trip to pioneer village is kinda mind boggling lol
he’s literally so hot.
BTS was right. He *IS* good looking. .. my God!
This guy needs to be preserved.
Canadian here:
Some of these are specifically an Ontario thing.
A lot are very universally Canadian but I'd say each province has a few slang words you mostly will only hear in that province.
How is "GO Train" and "Famous Players" slang in any way?
Does anyone even call them Famous Players anymore?
I thought famous players got bought by Cineplex forever ago. Never heard of a go train because here in Calgary we have a C-train. Worst slang lesson ever. He included timmies but forgot double double. The best Canadian slang word is garburator - I didn't even know this was slang until I mentioned it to an american - I guess they just call them sink disposals.
@@k-isfor-kristina Yup and Cineplex owns the rec room and playdium, not sure if you have a playdium out there. GO transit is a coach bus/train service but it doesn't service all of Ontario, mostly Toronto and it's surrounding cities but goes as far as Oshawa/Ajax/Barrie/Niagara falls/Whitby
Me as latin american at 0:18: "Ajax? the cleaning product?" 👁️👄👁️
Jajsjaja X2
Me as an European: like the Dutch football team???
Guys, no, it’s not a cleaning product nor a Dutch football team, it’s a city, WHERE I LIVE!
Same here!! That’s what I use .. smells so good!!!!
same, i was like "bLEACH?"
BYE BBY LOOKS SO GOOD
Thanks for bringing up Ontario slang. It was so enjoyable. Pioneer Village brings back memories!
i've been waiting for this one
He needs to keep his hair this long because it looks so good on him
I'm just laughing sitting here thinking about how horrible Durham Transit is and knowing Shawn knows what that is too
He brought up DRT and I didn't know if I should laugh or cry. The worst transit system
He's so fun I could literally see tiny bits of Camila in him
When he said “ that makes sense, still” that was more GTA slang than most of what they asked him abou
Facts 😂
being canadian, this makes me happy 🤧
Me too😢😭
Oooooohhh caaaaaannaaaadddaaaaa ( finish the lyrics)
And me :-)
There is something in his voice. Just something I can't explain.
Magic
@@mariemendes1425 perfect
spontaneity 🤩
Shawn being Canadian is the most relatable thing I’ve experience!!
You also get to make candles and the triangle instrument at pioneer village!
As a fellow Canadian I thoroughly enjoyed this 😂😂😂
as a Canadian. I cant believe we are the only ones who say Mickey and 26 . darts too LOL ... canadien slang is fun
Americans call a Mickey a ‘fifth’. That surprised me. 🇨🇦
I've always called it a 26er. Also, the next size up was a 40-pounder (40 oz.bottle).
Pioneer village was probably one of the best trips I’ve ever been on as a kid lol. Bunk beds with 5 other kids and we stayed up making up scary stories 🤣
half of these are just names of places in Ontario... how is it slang??
