Hahaha! I can't say words that have more than one r or w (or two words that go together in sentances like that, like "road work" or "railroad"), so I say:
Woah-st-i-shiwe xD.

(Not that this was, in any way, relevant.. :P)

Lol. I was going to do a video, but since you pronounce everything exactly the same way I do, I no longer have to! Thanks for saving me the time {although I did want to test out the "plugging your speaker into the microphone jack and speaking into it" theory}.

Ah, so you make the "sh" sound in "straw" also?

And to save you that time, no, plugging speakers into the mic jack doesn't work. ;)

i totally just made a video of random american pronunciated words. i have some things to do around the house before i can upload the video and post it.

sweet!

I'm going to do another video where I say these words
worcestershire
very
herb
building
norwich
squirrel
aluminium
hour
our
are

I always wonder how people from other countries would pronounce some of the STREETS we have here, lol. What with letter combinations sounding different and all.

How would you guys form the UK and other places presume these are pronounced?

Gratiot
Schoenherr
Groesbeck
Cadieux

Watching the Queen's speech video, I picked up a couple other things i Noticed...

mark. Was pronounced more like mock. or.. m-ahhhk.
hearing her say 'often' made me realize that I say it differently than most. I say 'off-ten', whereas it seems most people, including you guys over there usually say 'offen'.
I always liked the way 'a' is said there, too. Example. ExOMple, heh. Or, AdVONtage. I'm gonna move to the UK just to pick up that accent, I love it, LOL
Interests, is pronounced interists here. Usually, anyway.
One big one that caught my ear, too was economically. Pronounced ECKonomically, here. Whereas it had the long E sound when she said it.
And the last one I caught was voluntary. She said vol-un-tree. It's pronounced like it looks, here. Vol-un-tair-ee

very few people say e.g barth for bath

Ooh that sneaky r! lol
We get southerners that say warsh for wash.
Or like "winder" for window, lol

Oh, that would just be common here, things like grarss, parth, barth, larth(laugh) are posh/proper, winder very common.

THAT IS NOT TRUE, YO. MOST SOUTHERNERS SAY IT. AND QUITE A FEW NORTHERNERS WHO DON'T PICK UP THE LOCAL ACCENT BUT GO TO PRIVATE SCHOOL AND THUS SPEAK 'RP' ENGLISH. LIKE, IT IS A SOUTHERN VERSUS NORTHERN THING. ALTHOUGH THERE IS NO 'R' IN IT - IT'S MORE LIKE 'BAHTH'.

HEHE - IT DOESN'T SOUND LIKE 'MOCK' OR 'EXOMPLE' TO US, BECAUSE OUR 'O' IS TOTALLY DIFFERENT FROM YOURS, YO! LIKE WHEN YOU SAY 'O' IT SOUNDS LIKE AN 'A' TO US - SO IT ALWAYS SOUNDS LIKE AMERICANS SAY 'HAT' FOR 'HOT'.

ACTUALLY, PLENTY OF BRITS PRONOUNCE THE 'T' IN OFTEN, ALTHOUGH POSH PEOPLE ARE TAUGHT THAT IT'S A SILENT T, LIKE IN THE WORD 'LISTEN'. I'VE NOTICED QUITE A FEW AMERICANS SAYING THE 'T' TOO - IT SEEMS TO BE DIVIDED.

AND YES, YO - THE ENDING 'TARY' OR 'TERY' IS PRONOUNCED 'TREE'. 'ELEMENTREE', FOR INSTANCE. AND INDEED 'SECONDREE' FOR 'SECONDARY'. AND RASPBERRY IS OFTEN PRONOUNCED 'RAHZBREE'.

ANOTHER ONE OCCURS TO ME. 'FUTILE'. WE PRONOUNCE THE 'ILE', YO. FYOO-TILE. YOU GUYS SAY FYOOTUL. SAME WITH 'FRAGILE'. WE SAY 'FRAJ-ILE' WHEREAS YOU GUYS SAY 'FRAJUL'.

I say fyoo-tile!
I say both fra-jile, and fra-jul. Both come out as they please, LOL.

What's the more common pronunciation of 'either', there? Ee-thur, or Eye-thur?
I say both, though "ee-thur" is more common here.

BOTH ARE ABOUT EQUALLY COMMON, I'D SAY. I HEAR THEM BOTH USED, AND DON'T HEAR ONE SIGNIFICANTLY MORE THAN THE OTHER. I USED TO SAY EE-THER, UNTIL MY ELOCUTION TEACHER INSTRUCTED ME TO START SAYING IY-THER WHEN I WAS 14, AND SINCE THEN I HAVE SAID IY-THER. IT HAS MADE NO DIFFERENCE TO MY LIFE, SO IT WAS A SILLY INSTRUCTION. I SHOULD START SAYING OO-THER, TO BE REBELLIOUS AND ORIGINAL, YO! ;D

I'D SAY SCHOENHERR IN A GERMAN WAY AND CADIEUX IN A FRENCH WAY (ALTHOUGH I TRIED THAT IN CANADA WITH CERTAIN STREET NAMES AND FOUND THEY WEREN'T PRONOUNCED THAT WAY DESPITE SPELLING).

Gratiot grash-t
Schoenher shone-hair
Groesbeck grohz-beck
Cadieux kaygi

Groesbeck is right!
The others are
Gratiot=Gra-shit (no joke, lol)
Schoenherr=Shay-nerr
Cadieux=Ca-dough

I was going from my knowledge of French and German.

LOL, i watched this. Thanks for clearing up the aluminum part for me. My boyfriend (who's british), was trying to teach me how to say it the right 'proper english' way. lol. his mic was broken so i sounded like a retard trying to say it HIS way. lol.

:D

With the exception of building, aluminum and norwich, I didn't hear any words that were different from ours - well, mine really, since accents across the US vary so much. I can hear an accent, but the words don't really sound that different.

Oh yeah everyone?

How about this phrase then:

Ze do caixiao zumpi lampiao.

Haha, if I could spell correctly:

lampaio.

The lampiao is correct, the caixiao should be, caixoa.
