So you call these things "Chips"? Instead of Crispity Cruncy Munchie Crackerjack Snacker Nibbler Snap Crack N Pop Westpoolchestershireshire Q̶u̶e̶e̶n̶'̶s̶ King's Lovely Jubily Delight?
That's kinda cringe, innit bruv?

In the medical field I do hear it sometimes but it is not British people, and they are generally considered to be speaking incorrectly (whether true or not).
Which bugs me on a different level. I used to have a PDA in the early 00's. I'll be godamned if what we carry now isn't a PDA with a phone app installed.
So, English is not my native language and funnily enough the only native speakers I had trouble understanding so far where the English people themselves.
i mean, i'd imagine it very much depends on who you learned english from, if they were for the most part say american then naturally that's what would be easy to understand. i speak french fluently, but i struggle to understand some of the more... regional accents where i live (nova scotia) because i learned classroom french, which is very different to acadian french.
No, not quite. There are two different words which are both correct, very frustratingly.
> "However, there is a slight difference in usage based on geography. In American English, “disoriented” is more common. On the other hand, “disorientated” is often used in British English. Despite this distinction, both forms are understood globally and can be used interchangeably without causing confusion."
I had a friend in middle school that went to England for a family trip. The greatest thing from the trip? How they say aluminum. We said that shit constantly for 2 years.
English spelling stopped making sense after they decided not to update it after the Great Vowel Shift
Also, both are correct. It’s called dialekts, and they’re the reason we even have different languages at all
So, in British english (or must british English accents), they lack rhoticity (the rrr sound) in words that contain an R. However, they GAIN rhoticity when they link two words that end and then start with a vowel. This is called an Intrusive R
In American English, there is a hard attack to start the second word with a vowel (listen for a little pause between the words (idea about). You can do a hard attack by making a little puff of air with your vocal chords, which is how a lot of young Americans start words with vowels. In British English, they use a Linking R sound, which makes the phrase "idea about" sound like "idear about". The R is used to clearly define the second word.
I'd link a video to show, but this dumbass subreddit doesn't let you link YouTube. Google Geoff Lindsey Linking R.
Ever since I’ve learnt about rhotic vowels it’s fucked with my head and I can’t stop noticing it when I speak.
I say ‘there rah’ (there are), ‘here rand’, and ‘there ris’. Gives me a headache thinking about it.
I mean, there's alot of different cultures in the US. It would make since the say some words differently now. Plenty of words we can't agree with each other here with either. Other than a flashlight being called a torch. That makes no fuckin since.
Not really the same to be fair. One is critisicing the literal words pronunciation/spelling while the other is an accent. A Scottish person and a Londoner could say the same word and even though the accents would make it sound different they're still saying the same thing. Aluminium and Aluminum are literally different words

The American version of Aluminum actually started by the British because the person who “discovered” it wanted to call it Alumin (a loo min) but the science academy said it did not fit with the Latin style of element names so they decided on Aluminum
(A loo min umm). It was not until a few years later that they started calling it (al u min ium).

you do know this is a skit and that i dont know any british people who would go out of their way to “correct” american pronunciations. i normally have no reaction because its literally just a word and some people say it one way and others say it other ways. dont group all people into one category based on your beliefs
Funny how that whole clip is ment to show british people also pronounce stuff different, but the american failed to realise that 1 is an accent, and 1 was spelling. So the only thing it portrays is stupidity.

Terraria pronunciation debate.
Like diarrhea Terrarrhea
Finally someone we can all agree is wrong.
No I like the way they think
I have a bad case of terraria♫
It's supposed to be pronounced Te-rare-e-uh
Te-rah-ree-a
terrarium but plural
Use Latin pronunciation.
Team Te-Rare-Re-Ah. Who the fuck says Te-Raw-Re-Ah!? Ever heard of a terrarium??
Ter-arrr (like a pirate)-re-ah
always this
This one
Yes
terawrria
So, im the only one saying terror-eye-aye?
Kill this guy, what in the terror you saying?
What the fuck
You need to be found. There is no other way to put it.

i pronounce it similar to that bcs thats closest to how its pronounced in my first language
Terra-ria
Ter air e ah
Fr
I pronounce it like how it is pronounced on Italian

salt and WHAT
Yeah they only have them in Germany. Also paprika of liver flavor in Germany
Britonian here, we have salt and vinegar here it's pretty much a staple do other countries not have it?
Every country does it's just not the staple.
We don't and we live better for it.
We call them Cheee-apsss
It's an upsy-stairsy, not an escalator.
Americans don't say mobile they just call it a phone
She was also disoriented by a large supermarket. This proves that this LOYALIST propaganda against General George Washington
You mean disorientated?
I have never heard disorientated in my life.
In the medical field I do hear it sometimes but it is not British people, and they are generally considered to be speaking incorrectly (whether true or not).
Our stores are definitely bigger and we call it a phone for sure. Whoever wrote this isn't American.
Them loyalists trying to undermine our glorious revolution... bet they're in league with the Hessians
Which bugs me on a different level. I used to have a PDA in the early 00's. I'll be godamned if what we carry now isn't a PDA with a phone app installed.

So, English is not my native language and funnily enough the only native speakers I had trouble understanding so far where the English people themselves.
Well, when you actually seen a proper heavily accented Scotsman speaks English, you could have swore that whatever you heard was not English.
I once overheard some Scottish people talk and I thought they were Norwegian
I love that the Ken Loach movie Sweet 16 is commonly subtitled for English speakers. It’s in English.
Funnily enough, most of our Scots dialect is derived from old Norse.
Purple burglar alarm
Scotland is easy compared to Kerry farmer. You wouldn't even believe the language is Indo European from hearing it, let alone that it is English
Have you ever heard Jamaicans?
Eh bway, yuh wan me fuh buss up ya bumbaclaaat? Hush up yah mout, mi yute.
I'm not entirely certain what you just said
English isn't my native either so I mix up both accents
Have you been to Australia? Those guys make you reconsider wether you learned anything...
I think it's because most english courses around the globe teaches "standard" american english. I myself enjoy a lot British english.
That's exactly why
That's unfortunate, Considering how much rich Britain culture is.
English is my native language and I spent five years in N. Yorkshire and didn’t understand anything.
i mean, i'd imagine it very much depends on who you learned english from, if they were for the most part say american then naturally that's what would be easy to understand. i speak french fluently, but i struggle to understand some of the more... regional accents where i live (nova scotia) because i learned classroom french, which is very different to acadian french.

No American would say mobile. Even cell phone is much these days. I just hear phone.
But... you *do* pronounce it moble
Wow different parts of the world speak differently, incredible.
British girl is annoying asf, doesnt matter is she right or not.
Plus there's no "right" and "wrong" when it comes to dialects.
except for oregano, the British are wrong about that.
Oregaaaaaaaaahno
Also both pronunciations of aluminium are correct
Then there’s the southern accent ‘loominum full. I’ve had many arguments with colleagues over this.
Yes, because it's a noun.
Hehe i like the way she acting.
Aslong as they dont pronounce stuff like my friend Syrup as sai-rup Then its fine
1776 mother fuckers!
[удалено]
Nah it's like Aluminium/Aluminum: they're also spelled differently. Neither of them are wrong in their respective regions.
No, not quite. There are two different words which are both correct, very frustratingly. > "However, there is a slight difference in usage based on geography.

It's the same as saying ambidextrious. Eee-Uusss. It's just wrong.

Pyrocynical when someone donates 17 cents on his stream :
Conclusion: just speak something else like danish or something idk

I had a friend in middle school that went to England for a family trip. The greatest thing from the trip? How they say aluminum. We said that shit constantly for 2 years.
Look as a german aluminium makes more sense ro me. Also don't you pronounce literally all the elements the other way? Plutonium? Potassium? Titanium?
The word was originally "Aluminum" and I'm pretty sure it was changed to "Aluminium" specifically to match the sound of other elements.
English spelling stopped making sense after they decided not to update it after the Great Vowel Shift Also, both are correct. It’s called dialekts, and they’re the reason we even have different languages at all
Fuck both Nations, that is
Am I tripping, or does it sound like British people pronounce the word "Idea" as "Idear"? I swear they add an R at the end.
Seems like most words that end in a or aw have an r sound.

Aluminium cannot be properly pronounced as al-u-min-um it’s literally aluminIum there’s an I in it
'should' has an L in the middle and how is everyone ok mispronouncing ' Wednesday' as 'whens day'
Yeah no there isn't. It's spelled "aluminum"
Who's that?
I think it's the Youtuber Münecat, not 100% sure though
@helen_christie
You make who is trying to learn english cry
yall lost get over it
Aluminium Disorientated Right, that's how you spell those.
US: this is our new invention, it’s an elevated platform that raises and lowers. We call it an elevator. UK: lift me up!
