Why can british actors easily fake an american accent when there isnt a single american who can pull off a convincing...

Because the American accent was the English accent roughly 400+ years ago, so the Brits are already hard wired with it. It's actually the modern English accent that has changed dramatically in (relatively) recent history.

There's been a lot of studies done on this. Listen to Scottish and figure out what it more closely resembles (keeping in mind that Scotland is fucking right next to England and has been affected as well). Look at written English and imagine listening to it said out loud without any letters being silent (as it used to be) - it's makes a shitload more phonetic sense with an American accent than an English one.

The Tudors would have sounded more like someone from Texas than they would any native Englishman today.

Brits watch a lot of Murrican TV, movies, news, etc. Murricans don’t watch as much Brit stuff.

Americans teeth are straighter and cleaner on average. I met a British person who had never even heard of flossing, he didn’t know what it was.

BBC literally airs documentaries about your kids’ rotting teeth

This post is mostly bullshit. While one of the most definitive features of an English accent - non rhoticism - is a recent development, both RP and SAE are equally distant from what Tudor era English speakers would have sounded like. You're also confused about the timeframe of silent letters being absent. This was the case in Old English - literally 1000+ years ago - and had already fully died out by Early Middle English which is chock full of silent letters due to French influence, even more so than today.

Because they grew up watching American movies and television and wanted to become actors because of American movies and television. I grew up in a non-anglophone country and young people automatically speak English in a pseudo-American accent because that’s what they are exposed to on a daily basis.

>I only read the title of the article
American ed makes reading very hard.

Because there are significantly more American accents than there are British accents, so if someone tries to sound American but doesn't quite get it right, it doesn't sound "wrong" it just sounds like "must be an accent from some part of the country I'm not 100% familiar with." Meanwhile because there are only a handful of British accents, either you get it right, or you get it wrong.

I wasn't saying that was the case 400 years ago, I was using 400 years as the timeframe for when England sounded more American that it does English. It's been like 15 years so I'll admit I'm rusty as hell but I did a major assignment on this at University and went through some very convincing studies on the subject.

Obviously it wasn't identical, but I'm still convinced that the modern American accent is a rough equivalent of a rather old English one.

British people grow up watching American media and idolizing Americans. You know the accents, you practice them in your spare time.

Americans don't care about British media, they don't care about your accents more than using them to act silly and mock your people.

This is why there are few Americans that can pull off convincing accents.

You're irrelevant.

Somewhat related, but the one British accent I can't stand is the one where the person sounds like they have rhotacism and/or pronounce words as a string of vowels connected by the letter "w." The best example I can think of is pic related in Hellboy. The movie was shit; there's no doubt about that, but the accent this bitch had was the most annoying thing I've ever heard in any movie. I just looked up an interview of hers and was shocked to find out that she's American and doesn't speak like that at all. Anyway, that accent is the worst. David Attenborough's accent is in the same league. I can't watch the nature docs he narrates anymore because his voice and accent are grating.

I looked it up a while back and this is a common misconception. The only real similarity between old English and American accents is rhoticism, and that doesn't apply for some regions of the US and UK.

The old English accent is actually much closer to a west country or Irish accent, kind of like the accent you hear pirates use in movies.

The reason Scots sounds so different is because it's literally a hybrid between English and the surviving remnants of the native languages plus Gaelic.

They're not even white, they dye them with fluoride.

Brits are just dumb and butthurt about accent. When the game Overwatch came out the character of Tracer was accused by many Brits of being voiced by an American with a fake over the top accent. Nope, English actress, but just doing a cartoony voice.
Also most Brits doing American usually end up sounding like House or Doctor Strange. It's a "I'll just speak a bit deeper and gravelly while making sure to try to pronounce my R and Ts." It's very samey.
Finally, Big Finish produces audio plays for Doctor Who and several other series. They typically cast B and C list TV and theatre actors. They always slip when doing a general American accent.

So this is what objective truth looks like? Based.

This is the opposite of what is true

Back then all the British rockers were getting their inspiration from America. These days it's more global and British singers just sing however and unless you've got a thick regional accent or unique enough voice you just end up sounding the same whether you're American or British.

most british actors goes through proper education and are well off. american actors are mostly either dishwashers or waters/waitresses

Ere long I was awakened from that conscious state of slumber in which the stream of fancy floweth as it listeth by the entrance of an elderly personage of grave and dignified appearance. His countenance and manner were remarkably benign, and announced a high degree of intellectual rank, and he accosted me in a voice of uncommon sweetness, saying, “Montesinos, a stranger from a distant country may intrude upon you without those credentials which in other cases you have a right to require.” “From America!” I replied, rising to salute him. Some of the most gratifying visits which I have ever received have been from that part of the world. It gives me indeed more pleasure than I can express to welcome such travellers as have sometimes found their way from New England to those lakes and mountains; men who have not forgotten what they owe to their ancient mother; whose principles, and talents, and attainments would render them an ornament to any country, and might almost lead me to hope that their republican constitution may be more permanent than all other considerations would induce me either to suppose or wish.
“You judge of me,” he made answer, “by my speech. I am, however, English by birth, and come now from a more distant country than America, wherein I have long been naturalised.”

This is was written by an Englishman of the 18-19 century and the visitor is Moore. Assumption among English intelligentsia of that day was the American accent ws closer.

Americans tend to only care about how their teeth look, they completely overlook their teeth health, so there tons of mouth cancer, infections, 35 year olds with "perfect dentures".

In my personal opinion it says a lot about the American approach to many health related things, you're just extremely superficial about it on average.

If you want in-game voicechat cred then you need to put on a russian accent or something vaguely similar. Even if it's done poorly they can't tell the difference.

There are many jokes about Americans visiting a dentist, usually they can be reduced to the patient having opting for having all their teeth pulled out instead of treating them for something trivial like teeth decay because dentures are cheaper and are going to look better any way.

I'm not saying that British have beautiful smiles, just that American dental care is seen as a massive con operation by European professionals.

>implying

It's always insanely obvious to me when a British actor tries to do an American accent. Almost all of them are TERRIBLE at suppressing the urge to slip back into brit speak

> we don’t listen attentively to accents
You clearly do, Americans will be the first to point out garbage accents from other American actors portraying people from other states.

Bring back the transatlantic accent.

You are genuinely autistic lmao

Shakespeare was written and originally spoken in a dialect that bore more resemblance to Old English than modern. The original wordplay doesn't work well at all, in any accent. The only reason the pentameter still works is that the transition to Middle English was pretty much complete by the 1500's.

Old and Middle English Accents don't exist anymore, period. the English and the Americans have deviated to such an extent that it's probably impossible to tell. From what little study on this was done back in the day, it's probable that Northern Virginians/Marylanders sounded pretty similar to Their English counterparts up until the civil war. After that, everything went to shit.

English Accents were influenced by colonial imports and American accents were influenced by European immigration.

The whole "Southern Twang" and "Texas" thing is bullshit. You get that from the French and Spanish, not the English.

Emma Stone did good british accent in The Favourite.

This guy doesn’t have a clue what he’s talking about. The distinctive Southern drawl comes from fashions in 17th century england of imitating the french. There were almost no spaniards in America

I liked it.

You realize that the three oldest cities/settlements in the US were all Spanish, right?

God damn, user. Thanks.

Because the accents of the British Isles are far more complex, numerous and nuanced. There are countless variations. There are barely three (3) distinct "American" accents.

imagine the smell

my gf actually met McNulty's actor during a Baltimore party, said that she ended up making out with him

what's that between his legs?

That lesbian girl from the new season of Stranger Things sounds like a Brit imitating an American, even though she's American and her parents are Ethan Hawke and Uma Thurman.

cute

I thought I was the only one who noticed it with British actors. It’s so common.

Americans are lazy.

The British just have better actors. Many start off in theatre, etc.

Sometimes I take a break and fuck your mom instead.

Tell that to the tens of millions of Americans who are constantly fooled by British actors playing American characters in their television shows.

Holy mother of--

>the American “accent” is the absence of an accent. British people just have to stop putting on the British accent and they’ll sound American. An American has to add on the British accent to their regular voice which is more difficult.

I’m a yuro and I notice it. I’m not even American or British

Always hated this shit meme, same thing as 'nice blog' since they both boil down to the same thing
>you shouldn't discuss things on a discussion forum

British actors can't fake "an american accent." They can do Standard American English, which is the accent pretty much everyone on television and film does in America even though actual Americans don't really sound like that. SAE is really easy to learn and pull off. Very rarely (if ever) will you see a British actor do a real American accent (like sound like someone from Wisconsin).
Oh hell yeah.

you DO realize those oakies are the descendants of English settlers right?

Brushing your teeth is the best way to take care of them. What the fuck do they teach people in Britain? Rub them with teabags?

Because Brits watch American films and series while growing up.

Americans don't watch British material growing up.

The rest of the world watches both as well. Gives us a wider range of understanding, while Americans get stuck in their own shit.

Are you retarded? No one said "don't brush your teeth" except you.

In 50 years, there will be no accents left. Everyone will speak like they do on YouTube.

Stewardi are the last of the sexy outfits on female workers. I love them bros

It's autosaging so it will soon be dead.

British "education" ladies and gentlemen

You responded to suddenly claiming about not brushing teeth, only you claimed that.

Oh you're on of those pretending to be retarded people. Here's a (you) for you troubles.

You made up a claim no one said, then tried to argue against it.
