Maybe it's because they took a bunch of metropolitan liberal millennials to do this video.

kledo5778 mmmmmmmmmm I don’t know

@@trishalennex4630 Well, I think you can tell. I mean, you can see the age. None of them look like they're poor, they look pretty middle-class. Also, some of them are even wearing political (democratic) shirts. I think it's pretty obvious they didn't interview random people.

kledo5778 okay so yes maybe that but what I meant was that millennials would probably still have their accent, I’m assuming a lot of these people have lived out of the state for a while and have faded their accent

That's all I hear and I am american.

Where I live in the U.S., there's a lot of accents so I'm pretty keen on it

Not hawaiian?

honestly americans do the same thing with british accents i know theres a few but they all sound the same to me whereas i can hear different american ones since ive lived here my whole life yk

Yeah it's definately not the same stark variations like there is in the UK where you go 20 miles up the road and everyone speaks different.

Where I live we don't really have an accent until we pronounce certain words. Sometimes I'll accidentally slip into a more Southern accent for no reason.

@BrewsBrownies neat...yea I don't really have an accent either but more the phraseology that I use is what sets me apart. Like I'll just use a Spanish phrase for certain situations

For me I live in Texas, and I would say I have a Mexican and southern accent that come out with different words

@Luigi_Luigington no but the Texas version of it is. There's a difference between every version of it in every culture it's used in.

@@fatdinosaur6845Yep, absolutely, same here. I say things like “Winda” for “Window”, I say stuff with i’s real long like line or wide with more of an A sound. I roll the R and say ‘tortilla’ real fast and sharp though.

Alabamians (me): I ain't got no accent

Mass though was just: "Here is the Boston accent you all thought of when you clicked this video."

Michiganders don't have an accent

To be fair, most of them were right! We tend to go for the "General American accent" when speaking to strangers, presenting, etc.

I think by "I don't have an accent" they mean "I speak with a standard American English accent". If you sound like people usually do on national news broadcasts or in American shows, I think that's fair to say. Everyone has an accent, of course.

Heh

We should get another word to say at some point though

We do say that too much

Devin..?

Fun fact, we do that in Ireland too, put a like on the end of everything

As a Missourian, i found this comment nice😌

As a Missourian too, we have a lot of different accents based on where you go but they’re all very smooth and calm in a way :)

only toward wisconsin, minnesota, and the dakotas though. toward michigan and illinois and whatnot that is not typical

Most of the MN accent is German and Norwegian with some Swedish and some farm lingo thrown in. Farmers have the most Minnesota accent of all.

I agree but the NY guy was 👌

All due respect, there's no such thing as "original accents"

@@joeyedmond6587 Correct, but some of the States' accents are lost with increased inter-connection. For example here in the UK where I live, in the 1950s many people in parts of the country spoke in more regional accents, with certain phrases and forms of grammar dating back to Middle English, but not used in Standard English. I read a story of a child during WWII who left London during the Blitz, to a small town in Northern England, and heard completely unique forms of pronunciation and grammar, which were leftovers of the more complex grammar structure English had in the past. When he visited the town again a few years ago, he couldn't find anybody who spoke like they used to.

texas was fairly spot on for women with texas you have to have a girl and a guy we speak very different to each other.

The Masachussets and Maine accents sound complex

It's because you have to listen closely lol! And also, yes, some of them sound normal, but different states use different words and phrases!

Your hearing is shot.

It's all the same but americans try so hard to feel special that they think the smallest difference in accent is some sort of big "quirk" that they have to flaunt and be proud of lol. That's what happens when you're a monolingual loser.

Each state deserves its own video

Vim POP aha you would think my brother says it that way and I hatebut

Most people refer to our accent as the “Naugatuck Valley Accent.” And most of us pronounce it “Connedicud.” Our hard T’s are obvious, but our soft T’s are pronounced as D’s unless they have a pop or importance.

I’ve been living in Texas for 5 years and I sometimes get “corrected” how to say Connecticut. 😅 I always told them I have been saying it that way all my life and never seen it as mispronunciation. But noooow I get it 😂

Nickolas Krause right i live in connecticut & forget about ct 🤣

Seriously, I live in a Ohio and we are surrounded by so many accents. Northern Ohio “My MAm” hard As. Middle Ohio sounds like a standard news caster, Southern Ohio twangs, and rural Ohio accents that are different than southern.

The Indiana person was wrong. Indiana definitely has an accent.

I think when people say that, they mean they believe they have what they consider to be the "standard American accent". I'm guilty of it myself. I've said that before because I felt mines wasn't attached to a certain area or region. Even when people say they have a certain accent, I find it kind of hard to notice. The differences throughout the entire country is pretty subtle to me besides certain ones that are thicker than most like the stereotypical NY or Southern accent.

And I know what they meant when they said we don’t have an accent I was just Quoting them lmao

they don't know what accent means lmao
