I think this affects parents more than kids. Fer real life mate. Wackadoo.
Streuth mate, not you too.
We are currently trying to dissuade our daughter from using dunny instead of toilet or loo. She also likes yelling it out.
We know the more we acknowledge it, the harder it will be to stop it...
In our house, the car has a 'boot'. Not a trunk.
I've never heard that one before
My 3y/o Scottish nephew speaks in a near perfect American accent because of how much YouTube he watches
I’m Scottish as is my whole family and our nieces (5 of them) all say bucks, trash can, soccer ball. I’m quick to point out their errors but I have to give them a wee bit leeway but I draw the line at trick or treating.
Oof, soccer ball must hurt though
Yeah that was a swift correction for sure haha!
That's funny
It is highly amusing but also somewhat concerning, lol
Wait until they start wearing our blue jeans and listening to our pop music.
I really hate it that everyone, me included, picks up an American pronunciation because almost everything is in it.
On an unrelated note, that's why Baldur's Gate 3 was such a breath of fresh air having voice over in British. But even that was disliked by some
For a bit, this was true for my daughter. She started to call me “dahddy” when she was into Peppa Pig. It didn’t last long, though.
My kid is there. When something goes wrong he'll say "oh NO!" Which can't be typed in an Oxford accent but trust me you can hear it.
Other Peppa-isms include the use of the words "silly" and "naughty".
This manifests in phases like, *"Oh NO, silly Andy!"
"Eh-o neh-o!"
Or noor!
toast'uh
a
Thank god she grew out of it.
Yeah it would of been really sad seeing her go.
Stop letting the tv teach your kids then, shitty parents...or don't complain when they get taught things
I suspect it’s mostly temporary, I used to have a heavy Amsterdam accent when I was young because of the day care I went too, but it’s completely gone. I do still have a fondness for it though.
First this, then the British Empire will reassert dominance over the colonies.
They've got as much chance of wanting that back as France does for Quebec. (spoiler: they rejected the idea and our most recent separatist vote turned emo in a heartbeat)
Yup, my 6 year old daughter now speaks Brit English perfectly and it’s hilarious and I can’t get over it.
Relatable, except it was the Yogscast for me
Apparently I was like this, due to Ringo Starr playing Mr. Conductor on Shining Time Station.
Wait, I thought the kids were speaking in an Australian accent because of Bluey?
speaking in British accents
but the real question is, are those kids still speaking English, while in British accents
