That is a awesome movie, She is wonderful with all the different accents. I am from Germany and there it is like in England, so many different slangs. Loved that one.

I’m French, but I’ve been living in the Highlands of Scotland since 2001. People always wonder where my accent comes from because it has a Scottish twang, but also a little French lilt that they can’t quite place.
Oy laddie, where’s my brolly, you cheeky wee bugger! 😀

I was ten years old (I think) when I saw the movie “My Fair Lady” for the first time, and despite the fact that they were speaking English, I couldn’t understand a word they were saying. Everyone else in the theater was laughing at the funny parts, and I felt like a dolt because I didn’t get the joke.

Oh, that was awesome! I want to hear the United States one (even though I know I have no accent, being from Wisconsin and all. *Friends read, crack up laughing and ask me to say Wisconsin again*).

This was great. Never knew there were so many differences, but I really never gave much effort to notice.

Watch’r me little sparraw Trace (the ‘y’ gets dropped in Essex) , it’s not EVERY Scotsman who says OCH AYE or HOOTS MON, or every Irishman who declares BEGORRA (although many Irish Women tend to fall back onto THE SAINTS PRESERVE US when told some scandalous gossip), the Welsh tend to say THAT’S TIDY for something nice and YAKI DA has more than one meaning 😄😄😄
