    @eststyles708 2 роки тому +185

    No but Sancho speaking to the Germans in an English-German accent to compensate is quite common. It’s something done so that they understand you. I have my own weird mixture of a British accent (English is my first language so I speak it perfectly as any other native) but when I’m speaking it in school my accent switches. I went to a Spanish school so naturally majority of the people that go there are Spanish and speak English with their Spanish-English accent which I’m assuming we’ve all heard. So in English class when having to communicate with them unconsciously I switch to the Spanish-English accent so they can understand me, cuz if I speak to them with a proper English accent, they won’t. Because everyone is speaking in the accent whether it be a Spanish-English accent or in Sancho’s case, German-English, you get influenced by the accent of the others.

  • @williamrandle4589

    It's weird but as a Frenchman almost bilingual in English, I started to think about an accent (our professor at the university told us it was better to try an imitate/choose an accent, his English as a French was mixed with UK/US english), I definitely started to do some researches on the differents accents and it helps massively, I would like to get close to Grealish's accent, which is the strongest and the most difficult surely, but as it's very pronounced, I like how it sounds actually

    How Sancho changes his accent in Germany is common for most British people to do when being in other parts of the country, city, or even social situation. I have an MLE accent but will use RP in some professional situations. I also use RP in situations where I don't want to use slang (in case others don't understand the slang) because growing up I only had an MLE accent and thus most of my slang is tied to that accent.
    The thing that I find difficult to stop doing when I switch to RP is dropping Ts.

    The Sancho 'German accent' example is great. We all do this and I know I have done it big time having lived around the UK but also in Italy, Spain and France. I have fun memories of my family ripping into to me for talking with a 'comedy Spanish accent' on one visit. It was very slight but enough for them to notice. It's human nature to make these adaptions. A good reason to mention this is my recollection of the massive abuse of poor old, picked on Steve McLaren for speaking English with a 'Dutch accent' while he was doing a stellar job coaching in the Netherlands. An entirely understandable and natural thing to do. Indeed, analysis shows that the more quickly and easily you adapt in this way is linked to how intelligent you are.

    Im from Newcastle but feel the 2 things you pointed out about the sunderland accent were just general northeast pronunciations that Geordies say too. A better example of unique' mackem would have been when Jordan Henderson said the word 'seen' as they say it as Sey-en instead of which geordies would just say 'seen'. They say Cue-key for cookie as well etc and Bue-k for book

As an American (who lived in England for a few years) it was easy for me to tell accents apart, as in these two people are not from the same area, and most of the time the very general region - North or South England, West or East London, but that's about it. This helps with some of the features I can pinpoint to narrow it down more.
    I always loved the Yorkshire accent the best, I just like how they treat their vowels.

    I'm English, from Kent, but I live in Mexico. Since living my accent has subtly changed. I am more inclined to speak more clearly, to make sure I'm better understood. But also Spanish sounds have leaked into my English. For example, Mexican Spanish has no hard Z sound, only the soft S sound, and my Zs (and Ss usually pronounced as Zs) have softened and mostly become Ss. And you know I've found it to be pretty out of my control. It's been a slow change.

    I think that the multicultural British English accent uses dipthongs for it's vowels. The stand out for me is how a word like "too" sounds. "Like" is another one. I think that comes from Nigerian influence since Nigerian English speakers make those sounds, as well. It's interesting to be able to identify the features of the MBE that come from Caribbean, African, Cockney and other Englishes.
