Am from Saudi Arabia and graduated from Cape Breton University (CBU) and I can tell that Capers people are so kind and beautiful and very open minded. Honestly, I misses everything in there and no word can describe how good people they are. God bless you all and I really had my best time ever in my whole life in Cape Breton and I wish to come back for visit in some day...
I'm from Dublin, we also do the 'yeah,yeah,yeah' inhalation, she's having a bloody 'conniption', 'didja', 'j'eat yet', 'roaring', & she scoffed that down. Funny to hear that over the years these weren't lost! Do Cape Breton's do this on the phone?: 'bye, bye, bye, bye'....can go on a bit ;-)
Some of these still survive in east TN...except it sounds like 200 years of being slowed down by the heat and trichinosis. "Djeat yet?" "Nah" "Yont too?
Interesting being Irish that you can understand a lot of these words and I can hear the Irish ancestry in the accent. We still use a lot of these words.
I'm from the north west of Ireland and this is uncanny. The way the vowels sound and the phrases I understand. Even the breathing in. We say 'conniption fit' if someone was acting crazy. The poultice. The phrasing 'ya didn' bring yer lighter wit ya did yah? d'jeat yet? Roarin' Scoff, Sin..I speak like that! If I didn;t know it was Cape Breton I'd actually think it was an Irish person who spent time in Canada esp the guy with the red top.
It’s because we’re all Irish and Scottish descendants 😊 I was born and raised there but live in the US now. I’m asked Frequently if my accent is Irish or Scottish.
Funny, because Cap Breton is a community in the Scottish Highlands and in this area of canada they dance a version of the Scottish step dance and play Scottish music yet they sound Irish. It is so confusing.
@@lizreed7762 I think you're confused. Cape Breton Island is part of Nova Scotia. The Cape Breton Highlands is a national park within Cape Breton Island. The Scottish Highlands are on the other side of the Atlantic Ocean.
However, "pogey" is typically used in other Nova Scotian accents, including Haligonian. "Scoff" is used frequently in Newfoundland English, referring to a large meal. I'm originally from Halifax, but now live in Corner Brook. The word "Scoff" is used often there.
I'm from the midlands (Nuneaton actually,) England, and it's crazy how a lot of Nova Scotia words either have the same meaning and/or the same pronunciation, like didya (oh, wen up tahn didya?) scoff, and haard. Large Scottish population (my real name is Harbison) and lots of culturally linguistic influences. Fascinating stuff.
I had to laugh. I was born and raised in Nova Scotia and I remember being teased about how I talked when we moved to BC but I couldn't hear any difference. After watching this I had to laugh because I do say 90% of what was said in this video. I still do the yeah yeah while sucking in air but didn't realize that was part of an accent. Too funny. You can take a girl out of NS but you can't take the NS out of the girl. Bluenoser forever❤
Absolutely hilarious! Thanks! Been a long time since I visited cape breton wonderful magical place close friend from cape breton loved listening to him speak! Miss that!!!
My mother's family comes from the Canadian maritimes and I'm hearing a lot of her vernacular in this... the inhaled "ey'yeah" included. She was born and raised in Eastern Massachusetts, but some of my grandparents speak still came through.
It's called "Gaelic gasp" because it stems from the Gaelic language. That's how words were spoken. Because we have such strong Gaelic roots we kept it in our dialect. I find myself and others do it even when counting
@@Emess_902 Lmao. Same. Although mines no longer thick, I had to practice Theopholis the thistle sifter for years to thin it out because II work as a public speaker. But even after leaving Cape Breton more than 30 yrs ago, anyone from the Maritime Provinces still say "Hey, you're from down east aren't ya??
As a Scot I was fascinated by this. In Scots: -fleg is fright -pochol is to steal -simmit is a vest -breaks is trousers -thrang is stubborn Gaelic: -ceol is music -salach is dirty -clan is family -Doolich is being sorry
It was interesting to watch this. My maternal grandmother was from Cape Breton (Sydney area) and she moved to Ontario with my grandfather (who was from Ontario) around 1944, and I don't ever remember hearing a Cape Breton accent coming from her, or any of the expressions heard in the video. Perhaps she had a native CBI dialect and lost it after living in Ontario for a major part of her adult life. Now, my ex-mother-in-law, who was from Sydney Mines, definitely had a bit of a Caper accent going on.
Lived on Cape Breton for a year, working in Donkin, definitely miss it, beautiful scenery and the locals treated me like I’d been there my whole life, I plan on going back to see everyone, wonderful place!!!
My Nana's 98 from the Island. She is bilingual Gaelic/ English. She says 'Well bless er little heart." or when she is disappointed, "Bless their poor soul" Once she told me the only one that would marry me is from the corner. She thinks any Irish or Scottish child who can't dance the jig is truly damned. My grandfather was a well known RCMP officer. They took me everywhere many times!
Excellent! In North east Scotland, where I’m from and is the home of the Strathspey. (My great x 5 grandfather was William Marshall) , we go ‘aye aye aye aye aye’ like sucking air out of a balloon or until the chiel’s lungs go dry. A chiel is a farmer or a country person. The spik o Cape Breton is braw. Mare like Scots and Irish then onythin!
A lot of these are pretty Canada wide and maybe some in the US as well. I grew up in rural BC and conniption fit was definitely used a lot. My dad would have a conniption fit watching the Canucks lose another shot at the cup....year after year. Have a bird was get angry, so a bit different there, didja...everyone says that, no? We didn't have meat darts but we did have meat bingo and meat raffles, usually for charity. Every logger sports day there'd be a meat raffle. I think we won about 40lbs of ground beef once. A puck is a puck. That's what it's called. What else would it be? We didn't say scoff for meal, but you could scoff down your meal, any homemade or improvised alcohol was a shit-mix. BC has got some good ones like faller - that's just a logger who fells the trees, as different from a chokerman or logdriver. Saltchuck for the ocean, muck a muck which my mom used to use all the time to describe older, bossy, usually sexist men that irritated her. "Now that he's the superintendent he thinks he's the big muckamuck around town and we should all cowtow to him eh." She used skookum a lot too, as in "oh that's a fair skookum deal on bread" or "oh look at his little skookum cheeks". Basically anything generous big or good with the connotation of abundance was skookum.
What about a Krimco? Aka Chocolate milk when I grew in CB! Or "dear" I was going to buy the raisin bread, but it was too dear (expensive) so I left it on the shelf.
Back in the 70's up in No.2 there were a few sayings that were used by a very funny guy hangin around at night up on 3rd, 4th and 5th streets,a natural comedian this guy was,I thought he was hilarious,he had side bustin humour,non stop.For instance, if ya said something outrageously stupid he might say to ya, "I think ya better shake yer beer box there by'", meaning that ya might have a couple of empties in there,he had one liners like "ja hear about the guy who went up to Halifax....yeah,he bounced all the way up on a rubber onion! Rimshot..Then right quick he'd ask ya "what's orange lying on the side of the road?..a wounded cheezie".Another rimshot.. And Oh yeah,der might be a lingering scent of cannabis indee air too. This guy was really funny,hurtin funny.Oh Danny Boy,the pipes,the pipes are calling...
I'm originally from Halifax, but now live in Western Newfoundland. Most of the words I recognized are also used in my home town, including "pogey". In addition, some of the words are also used in Newfoundland English, including "scoff" meaning a big meal.
How come in the news media like the ( CBC) in Nova Scotia you never hear the news anchors talking like this in Halifax? Maybe there's some Cape Bretoners among them. I asked my sister who lives just outside of Corner Brook NL once before about the CBC News in St John's NL and why they don't talk like the cast on Allan Hawco's Republic Of Doyle crime tv show? That's what made the Maritime East Coast accents unique, it's different from the rest of Canada.
That's a good question, it's probably a mix of developing a professional on-air "news presenter" voice, and non-locals who have moved to smaller markets to start journalism careers (which is pretty common). With that said, in my experiences, you can definitely tell the difference between NL reports, and say, Alberta.
Most of them are Gaelic Scotts descendants. That kind of "Irish" like sound to the accents is a common theme in Atlantic North America. It has little to nothing to do with the actual Irish, ironically lol.
lots of scots gaelic, my moms dad is from cape breton, his dad's family were scottish immigrants in the 19th century , tonnes of Scottish, some irish a bit of m'igmaq
@TheCrazycaper actually, in french "Novelle Ecosse" literally means "Nova Scotia". But the name "Nova Scotia" is latin. And it means New Scotland :) The more you know! hahaha
Love it im from a small town sydney mines in cape breton ns. Came to toronto in 2010. Friends say your an east coaster. Cause of my axcent . i love it. Now up here women calls underware panties back home we say bloomers lmao
Robert Steele Nonsense. If you're from the backwoods , say up in the highlands deep within, you might call them bloomers, and you might be an octogenarian . Bloomers. Does your wife wear bloomers lol ?
Seems all these saying and manersims are full English... I've never been to Cape Breton (planning on) however, Ive bee using almost all these sayings all me life without even thinking about it....whats different is the newfie / Irish slant on the accent - anyways... stunning place, cant wait to get there...2025 💫

Didja learn any Gaelic?
That's lovely
Come back. We can do the Cabot trail!

Yeah its Gaelic
I'm from Sligo Ireland and I was waiting for the Bye bye bye bye bye!! Uncanny.
Jesus yes!
Interesting being Irish that you can understand a lot of these words and I can hear the Irish ancestry in the accent. We still use a lot of these words.
I always say I can understand the Irish accent and that I feel we sound alike .
I hear the Scottish/Irish too
we understands you bye
Why does nobody point that out
I would say this is the more Irish-influenced accent, from the industrial towns where a lot of Irish-Newfoundlanders immigrated.
Every person in this video is either from Glace bay or new Waterford .
"Glace Bee"

Some of those words are quite common and used over here in Ireland as well. Blond fella in the blue jumper, Greg, is simply 😍❤️..
My gf is from Cape Breton. This video is very helpful. xD
I vist Cape Breton every summer. Every relative I have besides 4 cousins live there. All my family and relatives live in Canada, actually.
My mother's family comes from the Canadian maritimes and I'm hearing a lot of her vernacular in this... the inhaled "ey'yeah" included. She was born and raised in Eastern Massachusetts, but some of my grandparents speak still came through.

Good, my family are accendants from Ireland and me being a cape bretoners reading this from an Irish folk, gladly any day I'll be down with yas
People from cape breton are Irish ,Gaelic, Native , Scottish , and French and all of those combined make the cape breton accent
@@sagejohnson2445 unfortunately you are correct. Very correct. I have a thick Irish cape breton accent and it thurrally pisses me the fuck off

My Dads from Baddeck, NS...he calls the blankets on the bed “the bed clothes” 😊
Well, by the time you get finished saying "the blankets on the bed", you could have had the bed made.
It’s so true...My mom would say... Are you putting the bed clothes on the line? Washing my bed blankets❤️
I'm from the Annapolis Valley and I use almost all of these.
RealCanuckian I think almost all Nova Scotians do. I’m from Cole Harbour and I use all of these
Some of the Caper words are also used frequently in Newfoundland English, particularly "Scoff".
@@TrippleRT97 I'm from Halifax originally and I knew like a third of these and use almost none

What about "caw me", as in: "Caw me as soon as you get home!"? And b'y? (As in: the song "Tanks Ma, B'y!"...it's on UA-cam.)
I needed this. I’m creating a character from Cape Breton for Fanfiction purposes.
Many of these are "words / expressions" are widely used in Atlantic Canada
*inhales*Yeah.
Who knew Cape Breton had a name for the best combination of North American pizza ingredients, and it's called... Combination.
ya missed a whole bunch bi, say "whataya sayin" or "rushin out" to a mainlander lol pure confusion
Missed a prominent one: french fries are always called chips in Cape Breton.
Stegomasaurus no only when y’all have them with fish we call them chips
CBC waiting till everyone forgets PEI Encyclopedia, then throws this out there...
They sound irish I wanna visit there now lol
This is like 50% things I never heard of and 50% things I didn't know was unique to Cape Breton.
Love it, thanks for sharin, needed a good laugh :)
I have been off the Island a long time, took me way too long to remember Devco.

I hope you enjoyed yourself there!

What about “bed clothes” hahaha
They don't use bed clothes in other parts of the country ?
What do they put on their beds ?
Utube "Rubberbandits"and The Bull Mick.. they're Irish, its similar ta CapeBreton humour, like Rusty Cutlery or Embraced in Barbados
They sound rather Irish. Were there Irish settlers there in the past or does their accent relate to the Scottish Gaelic community that settled there
It's a mix of Mi'kmaq, Irish, Scottish, English, and French Acadian.
More like all the newfies that migrated there in 60s

Thats fuckin right
Yizz payin fer that? Er izz EEE EYE pay'n fer that?
Sydney mines is the best part
Nova Scotian is just less intense Irish
change my mind
Nah. Just Islander. In Pictou County we just mumble and use a bit of slang. It sounds normal to me at least. Lol
I’ve been to Dublin/Ireland, and I’ve traveled around Nova Scotia & Cape Breton Island. Can confirm they sound 90% alike.
Ron James should have done this
What about “ walk on , bye “?
how she goin bye
from a cape bretoner ehh
Almost sounds like Newfoundland English as the word "b'y" is used often.
Justine is right some fit
Most of those words are used and relevant in Prince Edward Island ....... jus across the water eh? We'd definitely know "what ya talkin bout"
Wow!! its weird seeing a dude and hearing Martinas Voice...lol its always been obvious its a guy but I never really knew what he looked like...
