To JP: I was reared, trained, and bred in my younger days of yore, in Elephant & Castle and Kennington. S. E. 17, before I was ex-pat. This rhyming slang can cause confusion due to its capricious nature of creating neologisms which are not universal, by slapping together words at one's whim.

@@starzy8288 What was the video timing of this?

Ikr?! So funny 😆

@@starzy8288 That's because "awaight" is a modern variant that was never part of the original Cockney accent. In the original Cockney, the "r" was pronounced so it sounded more like "awright". It's really sad that the original Cockney has been lost over the years due to too much cross culture. Try watching the musical "Oliver" and you'll hear a much better depiction of the original Cockney accent and not "de saaf London speak yer get dare na."

That's true. For example, Having a Turkish Bath means "having a laugh", yet we only say "having a Turkish". If you're here and someone tries ripping you off, ask them "are you havin' a Turkish? Then say " Do yourself a lemon! ( lemon flavour) meaning favour.

Richard Aka Silver there’s no logic it’s just slang that rhymes that got progressively “slangier”

Like calling someone a "berk" is rather rude, but could be even more so in the US, since it's a part of rhyming slang; short for "Berkshire Hunt". And yes, "hunt" does rhyme with what you think it does.

Watch some British tv, it might help with fluency

Like any other dialect, if you immerse yourself in it, you'll learn it quite fast (if you want to). The "level three" stuff is fairly uncommon to hear if you're just visiting, but of course pockets of folks here and there - especially criminals, drunks, junkies, etc. - will always keep it alive. I think it's great.

Paolo I’m a native speaker and I have no idea what he’s saying either

@Nicoletta Ciccone può darmi del tu 😂

I'm English and although I did already know almost all the rhyming slang, it's worth pointing out that no-one has spoken like that ever except as a joke. Individual phrases are still fairly common in London and it was probably more common a long time ago. I lived in London for 20 years, 20 years ago and even then no-one spoke like that even in a jellied eel emporium (which is a real thing and the most Cockney thing ever). Cockney rhyming slang is principally meant to be funny but it cannot be compared to rural dialects in Italy for example where that really is the mother tongue of people in a specific region.

For me also the third level sounds like some sort of encrypted speech. I think that you may have a similar feeling if you have learnt the official French language and you hear the “marseillais” or “provençal” dialect.

Lol you thought cockney was hard, try the slang around stoke on trent that will blow your mind example "Hello" cockney "alright mate" stoke "awat" 😆..say it a...wat,"Head, cockney "Ed" stoke "yed" and loads more. Now that's more confusing than cockney lol 😆

But although my hobby of guessing which area a person is from has become more of a challenge, it's still an enjoyable icebreaker. Aunt vs "ant" being the reply to *"who comes to the picnic if you invite your Mom's sister?" Tee hee: My New England Mum made me speak the Queen's English at home. Code switching was an early lesson! The Queen's English has been a lasting gift---but would have gotten me beaten up as a snob on the mean streets---so i also speak Spanglish and can "ax yo mama kin yu go to de sto".

*checkpoint reached*

T A absolutely, there’s a strong connection. Most settlers were from southern England back then, even today there’s a rhyming slang in Sydney. “Take a captain” -> Captain Cook -> look.

Lots of similarities. Mostly based on late 18th - early 19th century southern English with a fair bit of Irish thrown in. Uses lots of rhyming slang, some common Cockney expressions, plus some our own unique ones and a few words borrowed from native languages. Not just used in Sydney by the way.

I think most of the Cockney accent originated from the markets, Billingsgate, Smithfield and Covent Garden, so prices could be set without the punters understanding. Owhay uchmay orfay hatay ( How much for that) along with the slang it was almost impossible to work out. Cushtie (Gypsy word)

@@pinkyman5155 You are probably right but I had always though of cockney slang as a badge of honor for "true" East Endenders (born within range of Bo Bells) and therefore primarily dockers. They were a very tight knit community and had their own code (you could not get a job on the docks unless you had a father or uncle working there). My grandfather (a blacksmith, who shooed horses at the large horse stables at Camden) was born half a mile outside the approved radius and he described himself as not a genuine cockney, with some obvious envy.

Brummie

I'm starting to study English and I like the British but there are so many that I don't know how to learn it. I thought everyone in england liked the cockney accent. So what is the most typical, used or popular accent there? Which one would you recommend studying? I understand that the accent of the queen or bbc is not used by anyone other than the upper class. I also know that the English like Scottish or Irish accents but those are impossible to understand. haha do you have any advice?

The french guy could understand you because of the vowels phonetics. Cockney indeed sounds like any latin-based language person who is learning English

@tikvision Not really. As a native Spanish speaker I found the accent impossible to understand in a short film so I came here to learn more about it. My understanding of English is rather advanced so I was very frustrated but it's good to see it's a general thing. I love how it sounds but it sounds so different from the English I'm used to...

@@lalolandalanda8317 it really depends where you go in England, personally I speak estuary with a pinch of received pronunciation, but that's because I live where estuary is spoken and complicated family history. I have a mix of Welsh, northern and posh in my grandparents and great grandparents, but most of the later generation are born and bred in Sussex. My grandparents speak with received pronunciation, as did my northern Great grandmother (at least when my grandad was growing up most of the time.) So I picked up a bit from them naturally. For instance, I say miwk instead of silk and I only use a glottal stop half of the time. People always come up to me asking where I come from and what my accent is but it's just the same accent as them with a sprinkle of RP 😂 my parents have really thick estuary accents with my dad having more London influence than RP. If you learn received pronunciation and work from there, maybe that would be a good idea? People will understand you pretty much everywhere you go and I think it sounds nice, as do many people I think. I've never heard anyone hating on it, we just joke about it like every other accent we know of.
