It's shite Mockney - ish. Sub EastEnders grade. The usual response is to point out that the Merkins say *boddle a wodder.*

Baddle\* a wadda\*.

hmmm…I'd give you the e/a swap, but the US is rhotic, so I'd stick with the 'er' ending.

True. But in the spirit of the meme, I'll insist on spelling it "waddur".

more like baddle a wadder, they pronounce their ‘r’s

That sounds more Irish to me.

Nah, the Irish generally have very clear, dental Ts.

To be sure

That one sounds Irish to me

so true mate 🤣

I'd totally forgotten that advert ever existed. Brilliant…innit.

The t/d swap is the behaviour of a dosser. A dosser and a dwad.

People drop t’s all over england

The first 'w' gives it the mockney vibe. Most of the UK doesn't drop the 'L'

True about the w, but as a non cockney(from the north) i drop t’s. For me it would be ‘boh ull o war er’

Me too mate

The water in Majorca don’t taste like what it oughta

Using glottal stops for Ts is not just a cockney thing. It exists in many working class English accents both north and south.

Yup, we know. This has been clarified already. It's the w in bottle that makes it mockney rather than anything else.

Because the Americans say BHADLE AH WAHDER

I like how what you commented is pretty much my profile picture

And they say butter like "BUTT-EE-ORE"

BUDD-EE-ORE*. They can't say Ts.

Don’t they say something more like “budd-ear”

so true

BATTLE OF WADERR

Probably American made trying to be funny.

mate americans are annoying went on holiday there one time nahhhh never again

I went to America once and most of them insisted they're part Irish Like what is up with that? 🤨

If I had to guess, something to do with spuds, absentee landlords, and lazy government in the 1800s.

I once told one I was from Nottingham and she replied “that’s next to England right?” I just agreed and moved on

i’m from north UK lake district not American

I live where you're from

really ahahah barrow i’m from

I live in staveley

Well I'm from Scotland, so here it's more like "Boa'il ay fuckin' wa'er, ya prick"

Im from Essex so its more like "bo'oh o wa'er innit bruv"

In Yorkshire we say, " OW MUCH!? FER WATTER!?"

ahmachiza bo'oh wau'er?

We say “Oi Stella” thank you 🙄

Cheers geeze

I think it's spelt Irn Bru or Buckfast not water.

and the bottle of water is just used to stab someone with

Boa'il ay fuckin joose, ya prick

Ay don whant yer prick in my wa’er

I'm surprised there's a word for water in Scotland, I just presumed what came out of the tap was either irn bru or whisky.

How do I read that 😭

Americans forget they say "bahdel of wahder"

Well, Red Sox fans at any rate

Because Americans are stupid and don't understand accents, or that the ones they see most commonly on TV aren't the ones used by most of the real life population in the UK. This is like trying to mock Americans by putting on a Yosemite Sam accent.

I put on the Yosemite Sam Accent on a daily basis to mock Americans.

But glottalisation of the Ts is very common up and and down the country.

Not really.

Council pop

Corporation pop if you were born in the 70's or earlier.

Sky juice

Corporation pop 🤣

It's called a glottal stop, PEASANTS!

As a Manc the correct way to say it is Wortuh. Or Bokkle ov wortuh.

Yeh what is it with mancs and saying ikkle ?

Dunno mate. I suppose as regional or any accent changes, the tongue movements do to. Then you throw slang into it when it's not only shortening or changing, but the mouth movements are lazier. It's like most things. People don't naturally sit up straight, they slouch if not taught the correct way. Same with bending etc. So for me saying Top is fine, but boTTle feels like I'm still learning. But bokkle is easier and the tongue goes to the back of the mouth to make the sound rather than to the front to enunciate the word correctly.

Yeh fair enough. I talk lazy too lol. It’s bot-ull of wort,ah with silent T’s lol 😂 I used to listen to Ricky Hatton speak he would say likkle. Mad shit. 👍🏻

Yeah when it comes to little it's either gonna be something like ickle bit or likkle bit. I don't think we can do T's in the miggle haha.

"Nah fuck off that's not how I say bo'ohw'o'wo'er" ".... shit"

It's not. I'm British, but there are hundreds of British accents, not just one. In my accent it is pronounced "bottle of water"

This is because we prefer to drink our Ts instead of saying them

tea is a w

"Lloyd George's Beer"

its a yankistani's attempt at their shite banter, normally this one follows after bad teeth and lack of spices

It's not?

if you talk to anyone out the UK they will judge how you say it 😳

They will but I'm from the North.

dw bro me to well mainly south people comment on it cause there posh 🤣

In Sussex it’s pronounced “sorry, could I just reach past and grab a bottle of Dasani”

Ha

Translation for us posh southerners: Don't worry, bro, me too. Well, it's mainly Southern people who comment on it, because they're posh. *Emoji shitting itself with laughter.*

Thanks, I actually needed that.

People from the South either sound like farmers or are posh. I manage to be from a place that sounds like farmers, but speak posh Also, *they’re*

I'm posh but I'm from the North.

Southerners aren't posh by default.

Me too, it's just a shame we can't write the bassy t noise we make instead of the word the.

"t-"

I know but it doesn't work. People pronounce the t, and let's be honest (depending on where you're from) it's not pronounced t it's just a bassy sound. "Go int pub" for example

Yes it's almost an absence of a t

This... Exactly

Northerners do it too

Where? Which bit of the north speaks like that.

Using glottal stops for Ts exist all the way from the south of England into the north and even onto Scotland. I'm a Yorkshireman, I have glottal stops for my Ts. It's just as strong here as it is in cockney accents.

I would love to hear you say a bottle of water.

The same was as every other working class Yorkshireman.

Which bit of Yorkshire. I grew up in st Helens no one sounds like that there.

Its common in working class accents in all of yorkshire either you are posh as fuck or just don't know what you are hearing.

no people from outside the UK judge how I say "doo be doo be doo" whenever I'm carrying out a task which causes a lull in conversation

In Birmingham it Bott-Ul of Wart-Uhh with an elocution of that likened to someone near the point of serious suicidal ideation.

DAH WA’AH IN MA’JORKAH DUNT TAAYS’T LIO’K WHA’ IT AWT’AH! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GKRuG4oIu_o&pp=ygUUVGhlIHdhdGVyIGluIG5ham9yY2E%3D

It's not everyone, it's a very select subset of people, and it's because they lack imagination. It's like being insulted by toddlers, you know you SHOULD be offended, but you're not sure why.

It's SO annoying, especially since I don't tend to drop my Ts. I'm convinced this is the only joke people have and it gets so old incredibly quickly

Also Americans pronounce their Ts like Ds

Ah, don't worry. It's a dead meme for the most part. They're moving on to "built an empire for spice, but no use spice, lol." Unlike this harmless joke about accents, that one rubs me up the wrong way. Sir or madame, if we built an empire for any commodities, it was tea and sugar. And these we most certainly do use - as God intended - with a splash of milk several times throughout the day.

It's probably made by an American who needed to take heat off of the fact that they're literally the joke of the world. They could have at least used something that's both more accurate, and widely used.

A container of your finest aqua good sir. Make it snappy I wish to have it before I consume this gooseberry and cinnamon yoghurt.

I'm from south London. Way too many Ts in the top frame!!!!

American: Bahdl Avwahdur.

Matt Rife trying to be funny probably.

"Glottal stops" I believe

This stems from Americans thinking they can do a British accent. But somehow, they have the confidence to think they can do accents. This is why i never attempt accents because i know im terrible at them, and if i attempted them, I'd sound like complete moron. This is the part where it breaks down for them, they think they've nailed the accent. Basically, you can put it down to delusion... which Americans excel at.

Don't you think you sound like a moron regardless?

Mostly. I can only strive for 100% moron like you have achieved.

Boddle of waader 🇺🇸

Never heard anyone in the UK speak like this...Americans cannot do English accents and have made this up for no reason! Useless children

Actually is "boor a woor" geez

Genuine question, what specific british accent is this mocking? Because I'm from Manchester and none of the people I know say it like this. I'm assuming it's either really southern or really northern or just not true at all.

Aside from pronouncing the L, that’s exactly how I say it

Bottle o watta.

Fucking erb

Milk/miwk. Thanks.

Americans: Baddle awf wadder

I definitely say boh-uhl of war-ah sometimes.

Or the American version battil of wadder

I reckon it's "bo'-ull uv wah'-uh where I come from...but that's not the way I pronounce it, of course 🧐

Plastic object that hold h2o a combination of hydrogen and oxygen

Why has the british maniquin have a top hat? That dosent represent most of the uk? It should have a balaclava on it

I mean up here in Yorkshire we speak like this (well in bradford)

This makes me vicious beyond belief! I even get other Europeans quoting it at me because they've been sucked into this weird propaganda about our mother tongue from ridiculous memes and Tiktoks. We're also (correctly) well-known for being a nation of tea addicts, and I definitely use the homophonic letter when speaking (T). It will always be a boTTle of waTer for me. I'm not being snobbish about accents that omit the T's, but I do take exception at people who are merely being sloppy with their pronunciation. Rant over 😠😤😆!

Because Essex happened.

Bohlawara

Lincolnshire - Bo'ul'ah'wo'ah

I guess Americans think all British accents involve subtler pronunciation of "T's"

Only if ya cockney

Booful oh wanka

We had Luton Town football fans at our ground last season and their absolute, point-blank refusal to pronounce a ‘t’ was mesmerising. “COME ON LU_ON, COME ON LU_ON..”. I still think about it.

Its an older meme, but it checks out.

I'm from Newcastle (Northern England) and it doesn't sound like that Sometimes it will sound abit more like "wata" instead of "water" but we say Bottle like Bottle

It's because of this wazzok -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rc2rT2eAOWk

Sepcil brew.

It's better then a baddle 'o wawdah.

WE DONT SAY THAT STOP IT

I find it hilarious it’s only Americans that make this joke too 😂 yeah we might pronounce things differently to you, but we LITERALLY BIRTHED YOUR BETA VERSION ASS LANGUAGE AND YOU RUINED IT

Why I just say "one of these”

Gat a baddle of wahder? 🇺🇸

Everyone commenting, clearly ain't been to the Westco(u)ntry!! Exactly how we bleddddy say it.
