QUEEN'S ENGLISH: What it is and How to Speak it vs RP Accent
Вставка
- Опубліковано 25 сер 2024
- This video show you how to speak the Queen's English is, what it is, plus RP accent vs the Queen's English in 10 + 1 bonus expression and it's really something you can't miss. This is a mini tutorial on the Queen's English.
The Queen's English is often misunderstood. However, in the video I clearly explain what the Queen's English actually is (and it's not RP) so we can compare 10 expressions with RP vs the Queen's English and then the final bonus expression is one that everybody needs to learn if they want to speak the Queen's English.
By the way, why would you want to learn the Queen's English? Well, I guess you are not going to be the future Queen or King of England anytime soon so the biggest reason would be - wait for it - just for fun! It is a lot of fun speaking it and it was highly amusing making this video.
You may also be an aspiring actor who would like to work in period dramas which require a monarch. I think that all the greatest actors have played a monarch at some point in their career.
Just a quick note - this video does not have the phonemic script for each expression so this time it's up to you just to listen and interpret what I say - as it is just for fun.
If you have another reason for learning it - let me know below. Well, I hope you enjoy it and if you want to subscribe - just hit the red button plus hit the bell icon for notifications. That's all for now.

Wonderful
You’re missing an important element to conservative RP: the a’s are sometimes pronounced as a french é (eh) not a (ah). So the Queen wouldn’t say “Naturalleh” but rather “Néturalleh”
I'm German. My favourite Queen's English word is saa:ns instead of science. Or: I went - to - Dovaaaa Caaastle a year agou:
That "year" sounds just like "Jahr" in German, which means year. Reminds me of the Crown actors learning to say a German-sounding "Haus" instead of "house" fro "Clarence House".
I'll be tuning in regularly 😂. Brilliant and great fun! ❤
I'm very glad to hear. Welcome aboard!
The Queen's word I like most is BATH.Beautiful with a super long A
The longer the better!
I thought the way the royal family spoke had been heavily influenced by their Germanic heritage which is why certain words they say almost sound like German words. Especially the word house - ‘haus’.
Could be...
the egggoh for ago and gleube for globe is so intriguing. Geuld for gold.
Absolutely!
So happy I found your channel. How fun!
Great stuff!
Interesting...
Just learning this.., first time 😀😂
i really enjoyed this
Hi there, I really liked #3. Every Year. It sounded just like something the Queen would say.
That's good to know. Thanks for the feedback!
Is this a joke?
The way you pronounce words in Queen's English, makes the ends of the words sound quite German.. Which would make sense since there's German blood in the family.
I feel like the German ancestry is heavily exagerrated. They do have more ancestors than Prince Albert and his line. Which is to say the German element has been heavily diluted.
Not that any European ancestry is a bad thing in a European monarch.
@@CuFhoirthe88 It's not at all heavily exagerrated. Do you even know how many German relatives of the English Royal Family exist?
@@meghanh2511 So are you going to conflate relatives (i.e. cousins) with ancestors? Prove it.
@@CuFhoirthe88 Don't act like the British Royal family is the only family in the world where members have married DISTANT relatives. And even so, what has that got anything to do with them being exagerrated?
@@meghanh2511 There's a distinct irony in this thread originating in the fact that I'm the only one who, so far, has listed a single German ancestor of Charles III.
Loved it. . .
I think you're trying too hard to replicate her accent
He wasn’t trying too hard, LOL.
I'm not British, when I try to repeat Queens English it feels like my mouth, tongue and posture
are doing acrobatic exercises.
God bless the Queen , long may she reign. 💂👑💂
It's pretty difficult, that's why there's only one Queen's English!
@@BritishNativeSpeakerYes, that's right, that's what makes Her Majesty so unique, among many other things. I love her.
That “posh” accent sounds like Borat 😆
Maybe because she is Saxon (German originally) not Anglo.

So what is Charles' accent concidered or other older aristocrats that don't sound like the Queen but are also far more old fashioned than RP? Antique RP?
It's called Conservative RP
Please help me understand the difference between Queen’s English and British English. Anyone?
British English is the name for all English in or from Britain. Queen's English was a kind of accent used by the Queen.
God bress you
Interesting is pronunciation of the word "often" as o:fen.
True. It's very outdated now.
We say offen in Australia. Truly i don't think I've ever heard OFT en. In some ways a few of the old ways lived on in Australia.
I'm filipino and I don't pronounce the t, I'm probably one of the few who does cause the majority here says it as "ofTen"
@@dregus3385 Oh, wow; I am Filipino too, natively! And I too do not pronounce the 't' of the word 'often'
@@dregus3385 By the way, are you learning to acquire a British accent? Because I am doing

This doesn’t Sounds like English But like a dialect some of these words are not really pronounced as what a typical English speaker would pronounce them in their daily days
I wonder if a person from a lower class someday would talk with the queen and if she can understand him or would there be to many misunderstandings between them it’s like west meets east and the other way
Yes that's the point it's not daily English, it's the Queen's English!
@@BritishNativeSpeaker sorry I’m not British I just thought every English people in England spoke the same way but it seems like there is a huge difference about the language which class you a are part of
But for me queen English it’s like mumble English I feel the way how people talks in daily English sounds better at least it’s more understandable when you pronounce the whole word or sentence
So the point of my channel is to show you that people don't speak the same as there are so many accents. Yes the Queen's English is like mumbling a bit.
You sound like you are in a Monty Python script. The queen did not talk like that.
I knew I could have been the 7th Python
…don’t know why I’m here as an native Eng speaker.
Sooo wtf does RP stand for??
Received pronunciation
received meaning totally accepted in the 19th century
Couldn't be any more wrong. Lmao she does not say aaaagooooowwww
She did not say medsins
Nice quadrophenia LP
Yes indeedy
lol bro you sound like Borat
clearly that was the aim.
😂😂😂😂
You look a bit like Jim Caviezel
You are not the first to say that...
HP
What?
do not feel bad
fellow y o u t u b e ' s linguist let them
talk t v ' s posh accent is shit too
eat sleep dream english and j a d e ' s
attempts are quite decent though
But as I point out only the Queen has the accent. All others are mere imitations.
@@BritishNativeSpeaker
fair enough mate 🙂
have a good day 🤠
Cheers. Always appreciate feedback.
