You made some erroneous contradictions: early, you said New York and mid-western are accents but are, by the video subject, dialects. This was repeated.

Thanks for watching closely. I recently watched the video again and noticed the same thing. I admit that as I’m shooting I sometimes contradict myself and make small errors. Part of talking off the cuff, I guess. So yes, I should have called them dialects in those instances. Good catch!

although English - German is close together ,sounds like O or y are also seen in French,dutch,danish,swedish,Herman,finnish, but English also does not have these sounds. Similarly Spanish French is close to the Spanish language, although it does not exist in the Spanish language. You know what the main factor is ? Dialect or Accent which one?

I would say that those are cases of transitional dialects. Where speakers of one language in a certain region adopt elements from another language into their dialect and it morphs over time to include sounds from both languages. Spanish French, for instance is a dialect of the French language that appears to other French people as someone speaking French with a Spanish accent. But to Spanish-French native speakers, it's actually like a separate dialect of French. I think you could safely use either term to address those cases. Isn't language an interesting thing?

So, question. Do go about and say " I have a chicago dialect" or do i say " i have a chicago accent?" I can assume since im saying this to someone accent would work? Would i look stupid if i used "i have a chicago dialect"?

The word “accent” is generally accepted to mean the same thing as a dialect and most people use that term freely. Technically an accent can only be detected by hearing some one speak. A dialect includes language terms and regionalisms and therefore can be detected by hearing it OR reading it. But to answer your question, you might look stupid to say you have a Chicago Dialect, but only because that’s not something you would notice much about yourself. It’s other people who, after hearing you speak, will feel stupid asking you if they detect a Chicago dialect on you? Right?

Fascinating video. If you'd like some constructive criticism I can tell you that although I was taken in by your 'British' accent (we all know there is no such thing but that's another matter) you made a common mistake that North Americans make when imitating English people. That is you got your vowel length wrong. You pronounced the vowel in 'laundry' way too short. It sounded to my ears like 'londry'. The vowel in 'laundry' is long. 👍🏻 I see from a comment below that you like Geordie. I'm a Durham lad so you'd approve of the way I speak.

Oh thanks for the feedback. Yes when learning any dialect one is bound to have a few hiccups and errors. Specific words that just don’t sound like you think they would. That’s why working with a coach or a native speaker is very helpful when performing a dialect or accent. I’m sure even the voice of words used can give away a foreigner. (Ie mistakenly calling a lift and elevator or a Lou a bathroom) but I appreciate the correction on the fine details. And I imagine I would appreciate how a Durham lad would speak if only I could hear you. :-)

Thank you so much for this video. Its very much interesting. It helps me to understand the basic concept of dialect and accent. Earlier they were very confusing terms for me, still I found that they are very close. My questions is It is easy detect the accent of a person on another language, but How do you detect the dialect for the same? Guide me please.

Unless you speak a certain language it will be difficult to tell the difference between dialects but it’s still possible if you listen closely. For instance I don’t speak French so it’s hard for me to tell the difference between a French Parisian, a French Canadian and a French countryman. But someone who speaks French well should be able to hear the differences between those dialects. When one of those French speakers speaks English (with a French accent) I might be able to tell the difference in the way their accent sounds. It’s a very subtle difference.
