Hi Joel, I'm proud of you, you recoiled in horror at the way that USA girl made her tea. You are becoming more Brit by the day. Well done.
She went back to Merica before posting that apparently.
@@dave_h_8742 She admitted it was a piss take, made to wind us up. She certainly succeeded!
That was a joke!
@@rocketrabble6737 She admitted it! It was a complete piss take!
@@jillhobson6128 Nobody would commit every possible faux pas by accident.
That clip of making British Tea causing psychosomatic pain in ItsJps is what we love to see lmao
I'm honestly impressed that they managed to make every single step of making a cup of tea into an abomination.
@@alant84, despite the fact that they managed to fcuk things up every step of the way while they're making it the worst part for me is when they insist on leaving the teabag in the cup as they're actually drinking it. Yuk!
@@alant84 It was a piss take, see her later video. It was just to wind us up. It seems she succeeded.
The lady making tea 🤮 she should not be allowed near tea. Definitely not British tea, i don't know what it was but it wasn't British tea. 😂☕
I am Indian and i agree with you
"Innit" is basically an abbreviated form of "isn't it?" in (rhetorical) question form, innit?
Yes it is, of course.
Up north we say "int it!"
In my native dialect, Southeastern US, we don’t use innit as a statement reinforcer ( we might say ain’t that right instead), but we do say itn it (for isn’t it) and watn it (for wasn’t it).
Innit is like kinda like how like Americans like use like the word like like like in like every like other like position in like a sentence.
@@weepingscorpion8739 😂 In Britain this has like caught on, too, innit?
Aitch is correct though, ‘haitch’ is not how it’s meant to be pronounced, but language evolves
Aitch is the name of the letter. The letter is aspirated ( with a breath) and that is where the confusion arises. I've always said "innit" as a punctuation at the end of sentences, when I expect someone to see my point of view. I'm Welsh, so I say it a little differently to Londoners.
There are many regional dialects in the UK not everyone pronounces words this way.
Exactly.
Na’a meen?
@@AlBarzUK yip 😂😂
Aye.
Americans omit the letter T from words and replace it with a D. Budder,ledder, fadder wader.Butter,Letter,Fatter,Water.etc.
my problem jps is that I have seen the 'gravy' you guys have, it is a white meat sauce with stuff. My idea of gravy is a savoury meat juices sauce that is nice and brown. Just saying lol
Yes that is one of the many things that people in the US get wrong.
Looks like cat vomit mixed with ranch sauce or tartar sauce, something of that colour.
I like gravy best when it’s almost thick enough to stand the spoon up in it.
@@AlBarzUK Like my Mum’s! We used to ask, “How much gravy would you like? One slice or two?”
The white meat sauce is only one type of gravy in the US. We also have brown gravy, which is with the savory meat juices, and if you are Italian American, gravy is a tomato-based red sauce.
I have to say the kettle thing was the thing that most surprised, and shocked me when I discovered that about the US. It never occurred to me that you could have a kitchen without one.
I think it's the voltage over there. Not strong enough to boil water in an electric kettle. Still no excuse for microwaving it
@@howardchambers9679 They will boil, but they do take longer.
Hope the kettle thing doesn't SHOCK you too much.
I know in Canada you can get electric kettles but it also depends on if someone drinks tea or not if they have one.
@@ThomasJM We Brits use Kettle for more than hot drinks. How else would you get your Pot Noddle ready? lol.
holy crap, never been this early to one of your videos.I like how Americans would probably be offended by this, and the British are just like 'yeah, that one's fair"
All the Americans are asleep innit bruh
When the sound "F" is used instead of "Th" is typical of Londoners and some areas of the South East.Here is a typical sentence for you to practise with, "Forty Farsand Fevers on a Frushes Froat.
How can any household live without an electric kettle?? 3 minutes to boil a couple of pints of water for various uses is super ace.
i dont have a kettle, why would i need or want one? but dont say tea or coffee i dont like either.
@@bradgooner3284 Hot chocolate, pot noodle, bringing a pan of water to the boil much quicker. Kettles are not limited to tea and coffee.
I ADORE ‘JOLLY’ and I really loved this video! It was such fun!
It's 23c, I'm melting lads. I'm Going to need at least two raspberry magnums to make it through till dinner time.
As my mother always said "There's no aitch in aitch"! For biscuits and gravy, substitute the word biscuits for dumplings! My biggest peeve about youngsters language these days, is the widespread use of "Can I get?" If asking a waitress or bartender, "Can I get a coffee?" well - you wont need serving, plus the fact that you're not allowed behind the bar to serve yourself..... "May I have?" is so much more polite and grammatically correct. Please adhere
"May I have" actually sounds too posh to me? I usually say, "I'd like (food) please" or "Can I have some (food) please"
….and don’t forget the please along with it 😜.
@@spanishdncr71 See we wouldn’t say please in America necessarily. If they’re taking your order, it’s a transaction, not a favor.
Make sure when you visit the UK that the railway companies are not on strike as they are at the moment.
Joel really needs a back-up plan just in case the trains aren't running.
Very true but we don't want him to be having that problem we want him to return with all good positive reviews while in the UK
That tea making was so painful to watch ! Joel find those people and show them how to make tea properly please😁
"show them" fecking "shoot them" 😉
@@bobbierocksbuster5584 a bit harsh 🙃
@@DS-jj5hj with a tranquilizer dart then 👌
Joel when you eventually get to the UK you'll find there are over 200 accents and dialects in the UK as a whole. Our accents and dialects change from town to town and can effectively change every 20 miles or so..to understand some accents can be very hard and takes a lot of listening too to actually understand what people are saying. The accents mainly on the video you showed are from London and Essex or Kent this accent is called Estuary English because of the way words are said around the Thames Estuary. I myself talk Estuary English. It's a accent based loosely on Cockney or East London with subtle changes to it..to actually realise the difference here with accents listen to some accent videos..try Yam Yam accent (Black Country accent) Brummie Accent Estuary English accent West country accent Geordie accent Scouse accent to name just a few of the accents that are so different that they sound like completely different countries all the accents I've mentioned are all from England then of course you have the various accents from Scotland two of which are Edinburgh and Glasgow accents then we have the Welsh accents and then of course the differing accents in Ireland too Northern Irish is completely different to the ROI accent you really have to check these accents out to find out just how different we all speak in the UK.
There's no such thing as estuary English. That's academic bollocks. I am Kentish born and bred a I have never said innit in my life.
@@neilgayleard3842 You just did!!!
I'm 100% English, but have never heard of "Estuary English" until now. All I know is very few British people speak English well these days.
A friend of mine acquired Estuary English in the Army (he was born in Scotland. His actual accent is pretty weird). At first I thought his pronunciation of 'l' as 'o' (sort of) in words like 'milk' and 'people' was a speech impediment, like Elmer Fudd. But all these bits (like pronouncing "bottle' as 'bo'-'ll') have nice linguistic names (glottal stop, or glo'll stop, I guess) and turn up in various regional English pronunciations (including American). If these schoolboys (stereotype school uniforms!) were a bit more sophisticated, they would recognize and identify these linguistic features instead of just saying in their not-quite-received-pronunciation way that they don't talk, pardon me, speak like that. www.phon.ucl.ac.uk/home/estuary/Estuary_English.pdf seems a pretty fair discussion of Estuary English and its cultural position.
@@barrymitchell6444 Oddly enough dialects aside, the Scots and Welsh have better spoken English than many English people themselves, especially the South East of England where the younger generations barely speak actual English anymore.
I remember commenting about Americans not having Electric Kettles and I kid you not, there was a civil war in the comments. My conclusion is that it’s available but it’s not the same cultural artefact as it is in the UK.
It's about voltage. In America it's half the power than in Britain. So it's quicker to use a stove top of microwave.
Hi Joel. I worked with a young agency lad from the "rougher" suburbs of of London today who spoke in typical council estate youth culture accent with all the mannerisms. Even though we were both from London I found his talk amusing. Council estate talk is basically a bit like ghetto talk
Well done to the lad that said 'pinch of salt' correctly. (6.30 mins) The internet often gets that mixed up with 'grain of truth'. Eg, 'grain of salt'. 🙂
Nah, I was hearing 'take that with a grain of salt' (American, raised by midwesterners) fifty years ago. The Internet is at fault for many things, but 'grain of salt' isn't one of them. You can probably find written examples of it dating back decades.
@@majkus British people say with a pinch of salt
@@majkus maybe there's a kernel of truth in what you say, but 'grain' doesn't make sense. 'Pinch' on the other hand, does.
As a brit I loved this, but that lad with a full grown heard looks about 35 bless him lol 😀
Hahahah the kids at Schools here are giants now, most are over 6ft at 14.
And I love Jolly, and despite not being religious, the pastor is an unreal guy. You should watch him trying to catch a squirrel in his house, it’s hilarious
Hey Joel. How to speak cockerny. Try these: "corta panda", "alma chizzit", "janarta meen" 🇺🇸🇬🇧💜😀🖖
I think we say alma chizzit in some American dialects as well, but I don’t think we say the other two
It’s a shame the Americans can’t laugh at themselves like this lol
We can and do.
@@wubbalubadubdub714Yeah , as always , it depends on the ( Brit and we have some very affable youngsters here ) the American .
Americans are the best at making fun of Americans--just listen to our comedians. Oh, and beans for breakfast is a crime against humanity. Beans for lunch and dinner, fine. Also, there is no such thing as an American (or British) accent. We are a huge and diverse country--in my state alone there are easily 4 distinct accents--to people from Pittsburgh the people in Philly sound like foreigners speaking English (and vice versa, I am sure). Cheers or whatever, innit?
@@gregcable3250stupid comment, doesn’t matter how many different accents you have they all still come under American accent
That tea...ugh! Only loose leaf tea, a teapot and a strainer used in my house. Great video again.
There has been a big shift in the last 30 years in the UK population where the Th sound has been dropped in favour of a fh sound. It's technically a lisp, where the sound is produced by pulling the top teeth back against the top bottom lip, instead of the tongue flicking off the back of the upper teeth. The result is words like Think become Fink, Three becomes Free, Though becomes Frow etc. Now, it's actively used as a dialog with London youth using it as a main staple of their 'road man' speak, but the pronunciation is prevalent amongst most of the UK now that received pronunciation is not taught at all in school, and many schools don't even use phonetics when learning the alphabet.
makes them sound fick
I'm Scottish. My English wife's adult children say 'Fink' and 'Fank you', it's bloody annoying and they are from the South of England but well west of London.
More ‘London = England’. Ludicrous, but another funny vid. Keep em coming. 😊
The video title says 'British memes', so Greater London = Britain for this one apparently.
Jolly is an awesome channel you need to watch the episodes with rev Chris and his twin brother Charles they are really funny
14 seconds is a record I hold now for tapping on the notification. This channel brings me joy so thanks. Also, hoping you’ve done most of your prep.
Anyone over 25 would never say “init”. You’d just get laughed at.
I’m almost 70 and often say init just because it’s amusing to me. 😄
@@cornishmaid9138 I'm 61 and I say it, innit...
I'm 63 and I say it bare times init. Mainly to wind up the kids at school. In the 70s we said 'intit' like kids today say init. There's nothing new under the sun.
First of all, Aitch v. Haitch, I will never forget driving my daughter back from school while she was in Reception (she was 4), and we were singing the Alphabet Song, she sang “Haitch” and I sang “Aitch”. “Daddy, Mrs. Hayes (the teacher) says it’s “Haitch”!” This lead to a discussion about regional accents, the fact that I’m a (comparatively) posh Southerner but we live in Manchester, so both pronunciations are correct! Second, the Toast Sandwich exists, and the recipe appeared in a recipe and housekeeping book in the 19th century!
Mrs Beeton recipes for sick and ailing
@@AndrewwarrenAndrew I thought it was Mrs Beeton, but I wasn’t quite sure and wasn’t prepared to check fully!
My OWN children say "haitch" because their teacher was from Birmingham. I'm a Southerner so this really peeves me!
American beans are so different it's all barbecue, which is OK but nothing like a proper tin of heinz beans in tomato sauce.
s hilarious that it misses the entire northern england maybe there are no memes for that.... lol. weather can vary a lot over here, as an aside when you visit you may need to keep an eye out for public transport strikes when planning journeys. Also you may want to look if there are festivals and free park events going on during your visit, there are a lot at this time of year, if you want to catch live music
It's basically a London-centred vid. The rest of us speak English.
Woop! Love Josh and Olly
Loved your expression When she made the tea 🤣. I remember your 1st cuppa and you getting the frying pan out for the beans too.
Hi Joel,another great video (very funny 😄) x again thank you
The irony is us brits love tea but never pronounce the letter T
Out of Context ItsJps: “I love all my highschoolers.”
I hope he and Ben have more younger fans as well
I smiled all the way through this So love your videos
I think it’s really nice and so interesting to see people like u react to other cultures and how they speak its fascinating ! Impressed !!
Yes Joel, I loved this video, so funny and entertaining. You wait until you hear our Westcountry accent, it's definitely different. I have to say tho, when people use the 'f' sound for the 'th', that really winds me up and also putting the 'H' in front of the letter 'aitch', that's another no no for me. Back in the day when I was a young person, we would be given elocution lessons on how to speak correctly, which sadly is now a thing of the past, but hey, times change and we have to move along with them. Joel, keep doing what you're doing mate. Lyd x
It seems you actually speak English Stew! 👍
Ahh class the British high schoolers, You should check out more of them on the JOLLY and the Korean Englishmen channels, Josh and Olly are also brilliant and funny to watch. 👍👍
Loved this, that was fun!
No electric kettles - because the mains voltage is 110 Volts which needs a very high current - 30 amperes. UK has 240V so can have a 3 Kilowatt heater element for our kettles. Init is, of course "isn't it".
It's been 25 degrees plus this past week Joel! It was 30 degrees at the weekend and we were sweating our tits off! Hahaa hopefully it'll be as nice when you're here :)
Joel might need a little translation: 25 degrees is 77f and 30 degrees is 86f but he'll get the gist from your fine sweating description, lol.
Nice vid! I'd guess these guys are 'sixth-formers' (17-18 years olds in their last year in school before uni or leaving education) from the London or South East of the UK. Seem like a happy bunch, quite bright, imaginative and communicative. When I see lads like these I've got no fears for the future of the UK.
Yes, I think that everyone of the guys is or was a year 11 student at The Fulham Boys School. They all appear in a few Korean Englishman videos. Yes, they seem to be lovely young gentlemen.
Posh!
All up for more of this stuff. Also, so glad you’re going to get to the UK. Please visit Brighton or Manchester if you can, they’re awesome places with quite unique vibes, both easy to get to on direct trains from London.
I like the Jolly videos too! Have you seen their Korean Englishman videos when they lived in Korea? There's a good one when they go to a water park.
Brew tea in cup with hot water only. discard bag , add milk and sugar. sorted
The way that woman made the tea, made me recoil in horror, wow.😮
Just came across your channel, loving your content. I’m in North East England and there’s so much you can cover about our area. The slang terms alone are insane, the culture is such a shock compared to the south, as is some of the history.
We say “bottle of water” America’s say “water bottle” if you say water bottle in uk you’ll probably get a empty water bottle
Well I’m in Wrexham in north wales and it’s 27 degrees and humid but that could change tomorrow 🤣great vid it made me laugh out loud👍
Another good vlog 👍
That cuppa being made should carry a penalty 😳 🤣
Love Jolly and KoreanEnglishman and this was a great video to see your reaction to
I don't know much about Jolly channel but that video is class. I hope they do more videos like it. Also can confirm its roasting in the UK right now.
Petition to see the JOLLY x ITSJPS COLLAB where they react to memes while eating Cadbury’s Dairy Milk. It could be a ‘Try Not to Laugh’ Challenge where you eat a piece of chocolate every time you laugh.
This! Joel, this would be an interesting collab when you're over in the UK :)
Hello Joel....Yes as the commenters are saying the accents differ in a short space of travelling, There is a saying in the Midlands that if the sky's are dark in the distance we say (It's Black over Bill's Mother's) I spend a lot of my Holidays (Vacation) in Scotland & depending on who you speak to sometimes the accent is strong & have to listen carefully what they are saying
Hi Joel, you might be interested in a very special Briton. Look up Fred Dibnah, Steeplejack, 1979, quite an eye opener. He's no longer with us sadly but he was an amazing man.
Yes he saw Fred before. Those climbs were terrifying
@@adrianhempfing2042 Cheers, thanks for letting me know. 👍
The biscuits are your cookies. Your Biscuits or our scones.
The thing about biscuits is your biscuits are more like our scones, our biscuits are your cookies. So of course we wouldn't have them with any sort of gravy. A cup of tea or coffee, yes. Innit was originally short for Isn't it? But now is used without any specific meaning,. It's just become something to add to the end of a sentence. And those awful words are mostly heard in the south, south east. In the north we have other accents. But yes a lot of people do say Chewsday for Tuesday for instance. It's just laziness. Wo'ah for water, yeah. Dropping T;s all over the place. :)
I concur with the horror of biscuits with gravy. You put a custard cream with gravy. You throwing up.
That lady making a cuppa tea just committed a crime against humanity!
"In'it" bugs the hell out of parents that like their children to speak respectfully
If someone in Britain was seen trying to make tea like that, the police would be called.
Why would you do that call the police? I'm from Australia and I make my tea like that all the time. Its the way I like it .
All hell would break loose 😂😂
@@peterlyall2848 omg man what, when, why and who taught you to brew tea in such a manner? 😂 Right boys grab the tea bags were off to Australia they’ve forgotten how to brew tea! 😂
@@peterlyall2848 in all honestly tho, you boil water not zap it with microwave radiation, second one must allow the tea to sit in the hot water for a few mins to allow the flavours and aroma to be released, next you add sugar if required and milk. Every country who drink hot tea religiously, Pakistan, India, China, uk, Ireland etc will allow the tea to brew hence why it called a brew lol Guarantee if you make tea the way I’ve said it will be a far superior cup! Try it and let me know what you think mate. Anyways where about in Australia are you? And nice to meet you 👍
@@peterlyall2848 i simply have no words
Armand de Lambilly is so proper. hahaha "I wouldn't have gravy full stop"
2020 was the best summer we had in 20yrs, but don’t get to excited we don’t get that to often and even we couldn’t enjoy it in 2020
Ha ha! We do have the occasional hot day in summer!
Joel, where I live in East Lancashire a lot of us don't say 'innit' - locals here tend to use the term 'intit'. Those are obvious corruptions of the words " isn't it ", innit or intit? 👍😁👍 On an even funnier note I call people from London 'inchas' because of their way of saying that word instead of the words " aren't you ". They also pronounce their r's as w's in that part of the U.K. - if you watch Eastenders you'll see what I mean....instead of saying girl they say giwl. My translation of the phrase from that particular television programme of " You're a proper slag, incha, giwl? " is " You're a proper tart, aren't you, girl? " 👍🤣👍 P.S. You'd be completely wasting your time and money if you tried to obtain either a phrasebook or hope that these regional dialects are available on Google Translate prior to travelling to the U.K. ✌😎✌
Her Majesty's accent was lovely, Princess's Diana's also.
Buiscuits..... and gravy.... BUISCUITS...... AND GRAVY.... WHAT ARE YOU SMOKING ?!?!?!? 😂😂😂😂😂
I’ve had Fish and Chips and it didn’t need spices. Although I must say that a bit of Lemon and Piri Piri Spice.
Tomato sauce or vinegar or lemon
Or tartare sauce. Chips and gravy is a bit of a thing , but I don't get it
And of 67 million people to choose a red sunburnt British face from...these guys chose a Belgian footballer haha.
I loved that. Very funny
These are London pronunciations, so not applicable to the rest of the UK. Every town and village has a different accent so there is huge variation. Personally I have a common RP accent. RP is 'Received Pronunciation' and is the accent used by many classically trained British actors and is considerd 'posh'. Common RP is a bit more toned down and is considered 'educated'. The sunburn thing is correct though. I have very fair skin and burn worse than a red-headed vampire. I burn after about 15 mins in the sun and go bright red before returning to almost the same shade of white. I've never had a proper tan in my life. The nearest I get is getting rid of the blue tinge to my skin!😄
So the sun burn 'thing' is correct for your pale skin. I'm a dusky skinned Highlander, it takes quite a bit of hot sunshine but I do go red in the end, so like most of the video, only applies to a fraction of the people of this country.
Nah that tea making almost made my eyes pop out. Regarding the weather, the past week it's hit upto 87f, probably good enough weather for you. Over the next week it's about 70s, comfortable enough for walking around.
This was cool... I love the reaction, within the reaction. It was even more fun seeing actual British people struggling with the phonetic spelling.
Hiya Joel,We have a West Cumbrian accent its called Marra, Marra is a slang word for friend,this is Choppy in Whitehaven, Cumbria, England
"moral of the story, pronounces your t's..." same guy two minutes before, "it's chewsday innit!?!?" lololol
"That was very enertaining" --- PRONOUNCE YOUR T'S!! 😂
Hey Joel! Hope you will come to Winchester while you are in the UK. I’d be delighted to meet you. I’ve been told I’m about 10% more British than average - according to the Americans I’ve met!
Hi Joel, you should watch "London cabbies try bubble tea" on the jolly channel. It's so funny plus you will hear the dialect, and words like init etc.
Let’s just say there’s a heatwave in Europe now so Joel will be happy. Also, I’ve seen someone in a Ski Place wearing shorts so the UK is a very cold place especially in the North.
It was 88 degrees in THE NORTH yesterday so shut tha trap.. 😊🇬🇧
@@Ionabrodie69 I was referring to it in relation to the South.
Id love to take you to the pub just so you could really learn what we're like🤣🤣
Hello Joel. These videos often seem like the words reacted to came straight out of "My Fair Lady" or Dick van Dykes school of Cockney phrases. English differs round the UK. For example a unique Keighley thing is to get a scone in a teacake from a fish shop. Under fifty miles away in Manchester you would get a cake barm from a chip shop. Neither place would say "innit" but more likely "i'nt it" with a different emphasis on the middle t. I still enjoy watching and your reaction though.
Tea tastes like dishwater--just ask Ted Lasso.🤠 And it seems like the only accents they have heard are NY, the valley in LA and a mash up of southern/southe western cliches. Every thing they say when they imitate a so-called American accent has an upward inflection at the end like a stereotypical valley girl or a character from "Fast Times at Ridgemont High". I love it.
Nice pronunciation/meme vid,Joel 👍: but if you want to have a good laugh,watch/ react to John Cleese's 'Tim the Enchanter' sequence from 'Monty Python and the Holy Grail'!🤣
I know you're visiting next month and that the weather can be an issue. Just to illustrate how different it can be here, the past 7 days in London it's rained one day and the temps have been 91f, 66f, 73f, 77f, 77f, 82f & 79f. So not the wet and cold everyone will try to convince you it is.
If you want to visit the uk and be here with hot clear weather for even a week its very hit and miss as of typing this the recent temps of the last few days were 22 to 30 Celsius but today its raining, its a roulette
that women making tea is a declaration of war.
Pedur Pedur Pedur! I actually remember someone called Pedur and the duuuur was about right 😂😂😂😂
Hasn't anyone ever heard of Toasties? Popular as a meal, you can also buy Toastie makers. Cheese and ham toasties are delicious.
" INNIT" means " isn't it " !!
Lmao not Joel skipping the word ‘British’. You pull off a great accent lol
I noticed that in Heartstopper, Maths 😂
its actually LONDON kids speak like that, they are 10% of the population
Best thing about this is Armand's first language is French and he still smashed it
'Fink' and 'innit' come from a certain type of English accent called 'Multicultural London English' - there's a decent wikipedia page about it and a bunch of videos explaining its use and growth in modern UK.
