The British are the Americans of Europe observation seems pretty spot on. I always hear how they're extremely loud when visiting other countries and are pretty patriotic by non American standards. Also noticed how the US and UK were pretty much the only 2 countries anyone expressed negative opinions on.
I think the French, all of Scandinavia, all of Eastern Europe, and every other country in the union are more patriotic than the English. We just have a few quite rowdy football fans
I have a Scotsman for a close friend. They have got to be the funniest people on the planet. It takes about a week to fully understand them. Outrageously thick accents and crazy slang is the very best thing I like about them.
I've always felt that strange parallel between these 6 Anglophone nations. Canada is to US, what Ireland is to UK, and what New Zealand is to Australia. Basically the smaller but more peaceful and beloved younger sibling to the more dominant, popular, and obnoxious older sibling. Also, I feel that US, Australia, and Ireland lie more in the extroverted side of the cultural spectrum, while Canada, UK, and New Zealand tend to be more reserved (well really just the Southern England for the UK, as Northern England, Scotland and Wales don't seem to have that reputation).
@@dynaa4168 Genetics and history say otherwise. If there is any country that is culturally closest to Ireland, it is indeed the UK, more specificially Scotland.

Prob Maritime Southeast Asia or Austronesia would have stronger filial bond, especially the Muslim ones (Malaysia, Singapore, Indonesia, Brunei). Philippines is just their more distant Catholic brother, who might feel closer to East Timor, due to the Catholic and Latin backgeound, but no one knows shit about East Timor. Laos and Thailand will feel close to each other. Vietnam would the black sheep (too much Chinese influence, Singapore and Malaysia also got a lot too). Cambodia is supposed to be Vietnam's distant cousin, but then bond prob aint there, other than being part of French-Indo China with Laos. Prob Cambodia and Myanmar are seen as the poorest bunch of the group, the latter dealing with a serious political unrest.
So the welsh sheep thing actually comes from the law in Wales at the time - if you were caught stealing sheep it was a capital crime - you got hung (infact I believe one of my relatives was :-)), if you were caught "entertaining" yourself with a sheep you got put in the stocks for a while. So if you realised you were going to be caught trying to steal sheep - there was one way out of being hung... :-)!

As an American, it took me a minute of interacting with Irish people to understand their sense of humor. However, hanging with British and Australian felt like being at home. They’re the most fun people to hang with and they know how to have fun. Canadians are fun after they get the stick out of their but.
As a Canadian I'll give this a go: USA: loud but nice England: Very patronising Ireland: Friendliest people on earth, and best accent Scotland: Salt of the earth and stiff upper lip Canada: Passive aggressive and often uptight New Zealand: Modest and chill Australia: Also loud but nice, and also chill at the same time Wales: Modest and hospitable
Contrary to popular belief: Americans are fascinated by people from other countries; more of us exercise than what's assumed by others abroad; being outgoing and extroverted (or as you all say "loud") can be an asset in establishing networks, friendships, and alliances in a heterogeneous culture; we don't "all have guns" - repeat - we don't "all have guns," in fact, many of us hate gun violence; many of us also enjoy silence and solitude (shocker!); the majority of us don't have passports because the travel industry in America is actually quite expensive and we aren't surrounded by four or six nations at any given time; we're educated, but unfortunately there isn't a nationalized way of paying for education, it's done by property tax, and many Americans hate that. Overall, it is as bigoted to rejoice in saying "Americans are fat, loud, and dumb" as it is bigoted to make assumptions about the Germans, French, Australians, and Canadians. And before anyone says, "It's just in good fun; we're taking the piss at Americans." You know, it's not in good fun. I've been to 12 countries in my life, I'm curious about people abroad - I enjoy it, in fact - and in my entire life I've never seen Americans chilling out laughing about how (fill in the blank) group of people represents a long list of flaws and annoyances. Shit, even when Americans are friendly, we're accused of being fake. If bigotry is wrong against Europeans, Asians, Africans, Australians, Pacific Islanders, and Latin Americans, then that same bigotry against Americans is equally wrong. So yeah, we're aware that you hate Americans. Finally, it's a bit of a paradox on how you don't want Americans traveling to your countries, but then you declare how Americans don't travel. Kind regards, A Fat Loud Dumb American
Also the bit about Americans having no culture does irk me, because it's completely untrue. For example, Black culture here is a uniquely American creation that's expressed in things like arts, food, dialect, and especially that music all y'all love to listen to. And it's a point of pride for us to have this rich cultural history. To write us off as 'cultureless' isn't cute, it's genuinely insulting...
@@jonahmiller5881 Agreed, 100% There's Appalachian culture, the Gullah culture of South Carolina, Creole, and Pennsylvanian Dutch cultures too! I'm not even saying America is the best country in the world; I don't think any country is. However, that look of disgust from the Irish-British woman when she mentioned American tourists was offensive. It was as if Americans were roaches! So not cool.
You don't have a gun? *throws all my guns in the gun cabinet and under the bed* Guns aren't all about gun violence. Most are used in collections, for hunting, protection, or shooting at ranges. Hobby type actions. Very few end up used for gun violence.
I think there’s a difference between making fun of someone out of love and making fun of them for negative reasons. Plus it’s not like there aren’t a ton of Americans who cause trouble, you can’t blame people for being frustrated. The important thing is not to judge the whole by the actions of a few.
Fun fact: when germans talk about Aussies (pronounced Owssie of course) we would never think of humans. An Aussie is a short form of Australian Shepherd and yes, of course we love them 😅❤️
Well done o the American guy for knowing about Irn Bru, next time you're in Glasgow try the Bucky (Buckfast from an Abbey in Devon but bizarrely drunk in Glasgow), but not if you have anything that would requrie you to be sober for afterwards :-)! He could also say Edinburgh, I'm very impressed! Oz actually has quite a few accents, when I lived there I could hear them but less so now, SA and NZ are reasonably similar.
It's tragic that South Africans weren't included. As an Australian they are the only English speaking peoples who I think are more masculine than us. And their accent comes first I'll admit, with Australian coming close second
@@wolfcat87and white with blood ties south africa doesn't fit the bill nowadays Canadian Australia New Zealand and some parts of America are still majority anglo celtic ancestry
The Canadian guy just confirmed to me that pretty much ALL Canadians and Americans think that British = English. Scotland, and Wales are as British as England. I've never ONCE heard an American or Canadian refer to a Scottish person as British. They're clearly confused about this.
@@rollingthunderinho we are not taught that lmao but it is a common misconception because most of the British representation we know is from England but British is someone from the United Kingdom, so anyone from England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland would be British
The people of Scottish ancestry here in Canada are very, very clear that they see see themselves as "Scots" and not "British". We take our cue from them.
The Americans sounded the smartest in this vid. We love, love, love the American accent in Argentina….!!! 😂😂😂🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️ It sounds Brazilian Portuguese to us. I guess that’s why Bossa Nova is sung in Brazilian Portuguese and American English…🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️The ugliest accents are Australian and New Zealand… Sorry for offending anyone.

i will say this, as an immigrant to Canada as much as Canucks are known to be nicer but they do tend to say sorry when they dn tneed to and Americans are not push overs like Cannucks cause i'm sorry but pple take advantage of u/your society when u r too nice so yeah Canadians need more oof! :)
It would have been fun to have more countries. Part 2 is going to be with the same actors so no India. Obviously they can’t include everybody tho and it’s clear they were focusing on the Anglosphere which is ok. I’m sure we will get more videos featuring Indians.
@@abshaar13 It’s true that English is not a common native language in India. But it is considered an English speaking country because English is an official language there. So technically not a foreign language. However only around 10% of people can speak it there. Which still means more English speakers than any of these places except USA.
There are a bunch of English speaking countries in the Caribbean and Africa that you did not include. Including countries with MUCH larger numbers of English speakers than most of the countries (and non countries like Northern Ireland, Wales, etc) that you included. You might have just as well called this video what WHITE ANGLO countries really think about each other.

@@osagiee.guobadia-secondytc4624 I think this is for countries where English is the primary language, not just people from other countries who speak English.
Did the Australians really just say the New Zealanders were rough around the edges when Australia is filled with ferals who think drinking alcohol out of their own shoes is normal?
Speaking on behalf of the entire 3 million people and 9 million sheep population of Wales im very surprised the English people had the nicest things to say about us 😂😂
Just a correction. Scots and Irish are Celtic(goidulian Gaelic), not anglo saxon. It's sad to see Irish and Scottish people giving up all their dignity to the English.
And the Welsh are the OG Celts of the British Isles. They are the true descendants of the Britons, the first inhabitants of Britain, before the Romans, Anglo-Saxon-Jutes, Vikings, and Norman French came. The Britons who settled from Britain to Ireland became the Gaelics. Those Gaelics who remained in Ireland became the Irish, those who settled to the Isles of Man became the Manx, and those who settled back to Britain, specifically in the north, became thee the Scottish. The Welsh, on the other hand, maintained their original Celtic identity, hence why their language branch is called Brythonic. Those Britons who moved to southwest Britain became the Cornish (from Cornwall), those who settled to Brittany in Gaul (modern-day France) after the Anglo-Saxon invasion became the Bretons (not to be confused with Britons). Those who remained in Wales became the Welsh (an exonym from the Germanic language that means foreigner). Today, the Welsh are far more fluent in their Celtic language than any other Celtic group is in his/her ethnic tongue.
As an American, I think the loud Americans people are encountering have to be from the northeast (New York and thereabouts). The rest of us aren't that loud. I can hear northeasterners from miles away, ugh. 🙄🙄🙄 As for the rest... Most of the UK is either posh and gentlemanly, or...the people who end up on Jeremy Kyle. I definitely feel the "Americans of Europe" comment about England, they seem to be getting increasingly afflicted with the problems America has. Everyone's comments on Canada in the video are spot-on. I'm genuinely fond of most Canadians, they're more similar to us than any other countries, so I joke about moose and "sorry!" and maple syrup with my Canadian friends, but if anyone else is mean to them I am NOT having it, lol. Australia and New Zealand seem to just get incredibly wasted drunk. Don't know why everyone associates drinking with Ireland, it's Aussies and Kiwis making a dent on alcohol reserves. I once read that Australians are just British Texans and I feel like that's pretty accurate. Irish people are very funny, they've got a wicked sense of humor that I just love. Scottish people too, usually.
Why is it unnecessary. The English conquered and occupied Ireland for hundreds of years. They still occupy a portion of Ireland that they colonised. The English tried to conquer and occupy Scotland on multiple occasions. All of which failed. That's not the kind of thing a friendly nation does to another. If the Irish and Scots hate the English, then it is completely justified. And just because the English and Scots share a monarch (creating a United Kingdom) then it doesn't mean that they are allies or friends.
"not okay with this face to walk around".. Well it wasn't apparantly ok to walk with that face in country where he's roots are either... I think it's way better fot him in Canada than where he's people comes from.

The English neither click nor cut in the European Union. In fact they are not even part of the club. And they will never enter again, a Spaniard assures you.

New Zealand: Modest and chill
Australia: Also loud but nice, and also chill at the same time
Wales: Modest and hospitable
Contrary to popular belief: Americans are fascinated by people from other countries; more of us exercise than what's assumed by others abroad; being outgoing and extroverted (or as you all say "loud") can be an asset in establishing networks, friendships, and alliances in a heterogeneous culture; we don't "all have guns" - repeat - we don't "all have guns," in fact, many of us hate gun violence; many of us also enjoy silence and solitude (shocker!); the majority of us don't have passports because the travel industry in America is actually quite expensive and we aren't surrounded by four or six nations at any given time; we're educated, but unfortunately there isn't a nationalized way of paying for education, it's done by property tax, and many Americans hate that. Overall, it is as bigoted to rejoice in saying "Americans are fat, loud, and dumb" as it is bigoted to make assumptions about the Germans, French, Australians, and Canadians.
And before anyone says, "It's just in good fun; we're taking the piss at Americans." You know, it's not in good fun. I've been to 12 countries in my life, I'm curious about people abroad - I enjoy it, in fact - and in my entire life I've never seen Americans chilling out laughing about how (fill in the blank) group of people represents a long list of flaws and annoyances.
Shit, even when Americans are friendly, we're accused of being fake.
If bigotry is wrong against Europeans, Asians, Africans, Australians, Pacific Islanders, and Latin Americans, then that same bigotry against Americans is equally wrong. So yeah, we're aware that you hate Americans.
Finally, it's a bit of a paradox on how you don't want Americans traveling to your countries, but then you declare how Americans don't travel.
Kind regards,
A Fat Loud Dumb American
Also the bit about Americans having no culture does irk me, because it's completely untrue. For example, Black culture here is a uniquely American creation that's expressed in things like arts, food, dialect, and especially that music all y'all love to listen to. And it's a point of pride for us to have this rich cultural history. To write us off as 'cultureless' isn't cute, it's genuinely insulting...
@@jonahmiller5881 Agreed, 100% There's Appalachian culture, the Gullah culture of South Carolina, Creole, and Pennsylvanian Dutch cultures too! I'm not even saying America is the best country in the world; I don't think any country is. However, that look of disgust from the Irish-British woman when she mentioned American tourists was offensive. It was as if Americans were roaches! So not cool.
!!! Yes.
You don't have a gun? *throws all my guns in the gun cabinet and under the bed* Guns aren't all about gun violence. Most are used in collections, for hunting, protection, or shooting at ranges. Hobby type actions. Very few end up used for gun violence.
I think there’s a difference between making fun of someone out of love and making fun of them for negative reasons. Plus it’s not like there aren’t a ton of Americans who cause trouble, you can’t blame people for being frustrated. The important thing is not to judge the whole by the actions of a few.
Fun fact: when germans talk about Aussies (pronounced Owssie of course) we would never think of humans. An Aussie is a short form of Australian Shepherd and yes, of course we love them 😅❤️
Well done o the American guy for knowing about Irn Bru, next time you're in Glasgow try the Bucky (Buckfast from an Abbey in Devon but bizarrely drunk in Glasgow), but not if you have anything that would requrie you to be sober for afterwards :-)! He could also say Edinburgh, I'm very impressed! Oz actually has quite a few accents, when I lived there I could hear them but less so now, SA and NZ are reasonably similar.
I’m American. That was all fair.
The woman who said “hot men“ is definitely me after watching all seasons of Bondi Rescue😄.
This is so fun
It's tragic that South Africans weren't included. As an Australian they are the only English speaking peoples who I think are more masculine than us. And their accent comes first I'll admit, with Australian coming close second
I think they were going for countries where English is the main first language for everyone.
I agree, they should have been included.
south african sounds utterly terrible. what?
English isnt even the main language of white south africans let alone tge majority. You are slow
@@wolfcat87and white with blood ties south africa doesn't fit the bill nowadays
Canadian Australia New Zealand and some parts of America are still majority anglo celtic ancestry
Americans speak in comic sans. LMAO!😂
I lost it when they said that 🤣
About time
What happened to the warning bit about generalizations and sense of humour advised?
People get it by now.
The Canadian guy just confirmed to me that pretty much ALL Canadians and Americans think that British = English. Scotland, and Wales are as British as England. I've never ONCE heard an American or Canadian refer to a Scottish person as British. They're clearly confused about this.
we are taught in america that british = english. what is the difference?
@@rollingthunderinho we are not taught that lmao but it is a common misconception because most of the British representation we know is from England but British is someone from the United Kingdom, so anyone from England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland would be British
@@sunnysaturn134 no one cares
The people of Scottish ancestry here in Canada are very, very clear that they see see themselves as "Scots" and not "British". We take our cue from them.
@@rollingthunderinho You asked the question. You got a reasonable answer. Deal with it.
Lovedddd this!! 😂😂
The Americans sounded the smartest in this vid. We love, love, love the American accent in Argentina….!!! 😂😂😂🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️ It sounds Brazilian Portuguese to us. I guess that’s why Bossa Nova is sung in Brazilian Portuguese and American English…🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️The ugliest accents are Australian and New Zealand… Sorry for offending anyone. They sound backward and dirty… I can’t hear the difference between American and Canadian accents. We do call Canadian expats fake in our country because they try to please everyone and are politically correct to a tee… 🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️ We aren’t politically correct in our county. We are the yanks of South America… The Brit’s? Well, we have history… 🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️😂😂😂
Feels Sad Wales forgotten again
It's good to know that the old prejudices are still lingering.
The Kiwi version of Californian US is hilarious 🤣🤣
Ellie rocked most of the accents
Every time Sarah from Northern Ireland is in a video, she is endlessly negative and morose.
Well, she is from Northern Ireland.
Now DBB is now on the Anglophone world
Yes for a week before we move on to the Philippines and then France 😊
A lot of jealousy towards Americans.
Love how the "chunky" representatives of their countries in this video attack Americans for their weight.
i will say this, as an immigrant to Canada as much as Canucks are known to be nicer but they do tend to say sorry when they dn tneed to and Americans are not push overs like Cannucks cause i'm sorry but pple take advantage of u/your society when u r too nice so yeah Canadians need more oof! :)
That English girl though
Bit of a minger.
I love how at 12:26 he referenced the video for Scotland but its a Manc girl😂😂
This was a hilarious video, but I'm actually disappointed because they were too nice to each other.
Was dying to hear one of them say "got any grease? THEN GREASE ME UP WOMAN!"
"Okie dokie."
Psst, ya missed one of the largest English-speaking countries on the planet ... India. 😉
Right? I was surprised considering how many people they skipped over.. hopefully in part 2 they'll fix that 🤔
It would have been fun to have more countries. Part 2 is going to be with the same actors so no India. Obviously they can’t include everybody tho and it’s clear they were focusing on the Anglosphere which is ok. I’m sure we will get more videos featuring Indians.
I'm not sure if India is an English speaking country. Indians speak English as a foreign language, it's not their first language.
@@abshaar13 It’s true that English is not a common native language in India. But it is considered an English speaking country because English is an official language there. So technically not a foreign language. However only around 10% of people can speak it there. Which still means more English speakers than any of these places except USA.
They also missed over 60 other countries that speak English.
Loved the video, so much fun... But you missed South Africans
That would have been Lekker :-)!
Thats not an english speaking country. India speaks more english lol
I want to visit too many countries ahhhh
I need money ahhhh
The Irish guy is my new gay crush btw lol.
There are a bunch of English speaking countries in the Caribbean and Africa that you did not include. Including countries with MUCH larger numbers of English speakers than most of the countries (and non countries like Northern Ireland, Wales, etc) that you included. You might have just as well called this video what WHITE ANGLO countries really think about each other.
12:31 is actually English it’s a Manchester accent
Hey everyone - due to this video being a crazy 25 minutes in length (there was too much gold to cut!), we have decided to make it into two parts.
Part 2 - How Much English-Speakers Really Know is coming TUESDAY! 🇬🇧🇦🇺🇺🇸
What was your favorite part of this video? Tell us below!
So many jewels 😂 the Welsh singing their national anthem, and the impressions were all excellent!
My favorite on this video: Different people from another country who speaks English. What about Africa? 😮
@@osagiee.guobadia-secondytc4624 I think this is for countries where English is the primary language, not just people from other countries who speak English.
*English is the primary language
@@TheJazzy1980 oh. 😮😀
Did the Australians really just say the New Zealanders were rough around the edges when Australia is filled with ferals who think drinking alcohol out of their own shoes is normal?
UK is one of the few countries in Europe that speak English as their main language so that assumption isn't wrong
Speaking on behalf of the entire 3 million people and 9 million sheep population of Wales im very surprised the English people had the nicest things to say about us 😂😂
as a Canadian, I was annoyed by all the clichéd, vapid answers for America
I love, as a canadian, how people think we need more oomph, when we're the first ones to put your head through the glass at 30 mph.
Just a correction. Scots and Irish are Celtic(goidulian Gaelic), not anglo saxon. It's sad to see Irish and Scottish people giving up all their dignity to the English.
Scots isn't. Scottish Gaelic is. Scots is a Germanic language/dialect which is endemic to the Scottish lowlands.
English SPEAKING
And the Welsh are the OG Celts of the British Isles. They are the true descendants of the Britons, the first inhabitants of Britain, before the Romans, Anglo-Saxon-Jutes, Vikings, and Norman French came. The Britons who settled from Britain to Ireland became the Gaelics. Those Gaelics who remained in Ireland became the Irish, those who settled to the Isles of Man became the Manx, and those who settled back to Britain, specifically in the north, became thee the Scottish. The Welsh, on the other hand, maintained their original Celtic identity, hence why their language branch is called Brythonic. Those Britons who moved to southwest Britain became the Cornish (from Cornwall), those who settled to Brittany in Gaul (modern-day France) after the Anglo-Saxon invasion became the Bretons (not to be confused with Britons). Those who remained in Wales became the Welsh (an exonym from the Germanic language that means foreigner). Today, the Welsh are far more fluent in their Celtic language than any other Celtic group is in his/her ethnic tongue.
@@lissandrafreljord7913 yep. Always did find the Welsh too be pretty cool.
@@MrCameroncee So is India, Pakistan, Nigeria, South Africa, Singapore and many other Caribbean nations.
As an American, I think the loud Americans people are encountering have to be from the northeast (New York and thereabouts). The rest of us aren't that loud. I can hear northeasterners from miles away, ugh. 🙄🙄🙄
As for the rest...
Most of the UK is either posh and gentlemanly, or...the people who end up on Jeremy Kyle. I definitely feel the "Americans of Europe" comment about England, they seem to be getting increasingly afflicted with the problems America has.
Everyone's comments on Canada in the video are spot-on. I'm genuinely fond of most Canadians, they're more similar to us than any other countries, so I joke about moose and "sorry!" and maple syrup with my Canadian friends, but if anyone else is mean to them I am NOT having it, lol.
Australia and New Zealand seem to just get incredibly wasted drunk. Don't know why everyone associates drinking with Ireland, it's Aussies and Kiwis making a dent on alcohol reserves. I once read that Australians are just British Texans and I feel like that's pretty accurate.
Irish people are very funny, they've got a wicked sense of humor that I just love. Scottish people too, usually.
The English seems to get a lot of unnecessary hate from the scots and irish.
Why is it unnecessary. The English conquered and occupied Ireland for hundreds of years. They still occupy a portion of Ireland that they colonised. The English tried to conquer and occupy Scotland on multiple occasions. All of which failed. That's not the kind of thing a friendly nation does to another. If the Irish and Scots hate the English, then it is completely justified. And just because the English and Scots share a monarch (creating a United Kingdom) then it doesn't mean that they are allies or friends.
Where's South Africa? You do know that they speak English there, yes?
But only a minority speak it as their native language.
HEY WE AMERICANS ARE NOT FAT
😥😥😥
Well at least I'm not
10:07 I lost it right there. 🤣🤣🤣
The Irish people did the most accurate Canadian accent.
"not okay with this face to walk around".. Well it wasn't apparantly ok to walk with that face in country where he's roots are either... I think it's way better fot him in Canada than where he's people comes from.
why is this channel's sound mixing horrible?
where is australia and new zeland anyway??
You could do the Anglophone African countries next
That English girl.....this one time at band camp....
1:44 Oh god
I'm American and I don't know anything about other English speaking countries.
Some of these folks sounds almost a bit bitter of the other nations lol
i wanna take the american girl out on a date. her knowledge of geography, history, and culture impressed me. that's my weakness, girls who know those things...
When i hear ireland i imagine : Artemis fowl, tea, leprechaun
0:38 🤣 I love them already.
The English neither click nor cut in the European Union. In fact they are not even part of the club. And they will never enter again, a Spaniard assures you.
There's so much bigotry and hatred in Europe...you just proved the point with your remark!
Half Welsh half German father, Half Irish half Scot mother ,born and raised in the States !
Ellie's posture is so British.
Buddy's got no idea how Newfies sound lol
Need to boost the algo
Your missing out on visiting one of the most beautiful countries in the world It's not bad here but we do say just be aware
Irish guy looks like some version of Roy Keane.
I'm from Washington State and I'm more like the Canadians then the Americans because my grandmother is Canadian
Where's the Welsh representation? 😅
Those scots, WOWZA
This is just countries roasting each other 😂
CANADA ❤🇨🇦
Get some booze into a Canadian and things change *fast*.
That or when their watching the game.
If you are a foreigner , you will find out that the Anglo are one of the most boring society in Europe 🇪🇺 and outside Europe and they are so serious and cold
The eastern and southern European are the most interesting culture in Europe
