When you ask individuals what they think about British accents, the majority of them either love ’em or find them amusing. While a few of us are hectic swooning over people speaking like Hugh Grant, some Twitter users have actually pointed out that far from every Brit speaks like they’re Victorian gentlemen and ladies.
We have actually gathered some of the most hilarious times that Twitter users have actually satirized people who speak British (or Bri-ishas one Twitter user who created a viral thread with over 663k likes joked). Upvote your favorite tweets and let us know in the remarks what you think about the way British individuals speak. Personally, I absolutely love the range of accents in the UK, but to each their own.
While we might call it the Queen’s English, extremely couple of individuals apart from the British royals and nobility speak the manner in which Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II does. There are more than 37 dialects in the British Isles! Scroll down for Bored Panda’s interview with Dr. David Britain, Teacher of Modern English Linguistics at the University of Bern in Switzerland.

definitely “Standard British English”with the accent called Received Pronounciation. “”This is the one they are exposed to the most through the media, and the accent they might understand from the Royal household. Some will know Scottish accents, and possibly also London( the conventional accent of which is known as Cockney ),”the teacher described to Bored Panda about the most common stereotypes that immigrants have when it comes to British accents. # 4 Image credits: # 5

Dr. Britain noted that the variety of British accents and dialects has both grown and diminished in the last couple of years! “There is a great deal of proof that much of the conventional, especially rural accents and dialects, are being leveled away with individuals using accents common to their entire region instead of their region. However there is also proof that city areas continue to diversify, and brand-new accents and dialects are emerging since of migration and mobility.

Here’s what Dr. Britain needed to state:” It’s really essential in Britain certainly– lots of people’s main direct exposure to different accents is through the media, and so the media are very effective– the method they provide these accents has a crucial result on how they are perceived.”He continued:”Rural people in southern England are very typically represented as all having the same dialect (which they do not actually have) and are typically provided as rather standard, friendly however unintelligent, and unworldly characters, so their accents become incorporated people’s minds to these qualities.”# 10 Image credits: # 11 Image credits: # 12 Image credits:”Internationally, it is often the case, for example, that Brits frequently play clever however evil
characters in film, and so their accents can then likewise(outside Britain)be related to those qualities. We, in Britain, believe this is funny naturally, as we do not have those associations about ourselves.”According to Dr. Britain, the media are really essential in spreading awareness of accents and developing stereotyped links between accents and character qualities.”But it wasn’t also the case. I can remember my daddy(born in 1928)informing me he was 20 before he heard an American accent for the very first time. Now that is unthinkable. “# 13 Image credits: # 14 Image credits: # 15 Image credits: How a Brit speaks depends not only on what part of the country they’re from but also on
their social class. One of the best-known dialects around the world is Cockney which was(and still is)spoken by London’s working class. In reality
, some Twitter users who are gently mocking British individuals are probably thinking of individuals speaking Cockney in their minds.Another well-known dialect is spoken by individuals from Yorkshire County. One of the important things that sets it apart is that words that end with’ee ‘noises are noticable as’eh.’Wish to say that something’s’nasty’in Yorkshire and sound like a local? Try stating ‘nasteh!’# 16 Image credits: # 17< img src= "http://static.boredpanda.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/1246770647545466882-png__700.jpg" > Image credits: # 18 Image credits: There are two accents that foreigners typically blend: the Northern Irish and
Scottish ones. The first one’s
very melodic, however
individuals using it tend to miss out on some letters in words.Meanwhile, there are numerous Scottish accents that differ from city to city. In parts of the nation, the
accent becomes extremely similar to the Northern Irish one and it becomes difficult to differentiate. And if you find yourself blushing with humiliation since you discover it hard to comprehend a Scotsman speaking, don’t stress– some Scots have problems analyzing how others from Scotland, specifically Glasgow, speak. # 19 Image credits: # 20 Image credits: # 21< img src="http://static.boredpanda.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/1152668987630612480-png__700.jpg"> Image credits: Finally, let’s not forget the Scouse dialect spoken by
people from Liverpool
and
made popular by The Beatles. It
‘s an extremely nasal dialect
, so if you want to seem like John, Paul, Ringo, and George, you ‘d much better start practicing! # 22 Image credits: # 23 Image credits: # 24 Image credits: # 25 Image credits: # 26 Image credits: # 27 Image credits: # 28 Image credits: # 29 # 30
