JUAN DAVID VINASCO 11-A 21 ACCENTS: In this first video, I could see how different can be the different accents even in the same country, like England where she says the different accents that people from that country can say, like London and Belfast. Also is the case from United States where people from Seattle, California and Brooklyn have different ways to say their name. Finally I think that is also important to see how people from different countries have their own accents, like Italian, Russian, and Australian or from New Zeeland.
21 ACCENTS The girl is very successful switching his mind to be able to change the way her voice sounds to make the different accents around the world. I think that this ability could help all people who have it to communicate easily, by knowing the different accents, in oral expression in different countries. 21 ACCENTS IN ESPAÑOL He tried to make something similar to Amy Walker but he can’t do it. Instead of that he act like a clown
21 ACCENTS: Well, about the video, I think that is funny, ´cuz the girl makes me think that’s nuts, but also it show us so many different accents, and with it we can know how other countries speaks the same language, and in some accents is easy to differentiate.
21 ACCENTS IN SPANISH: This video makes me think that he was making fun of our language, I think that ´cuz in comparation with the girl, we can think that he made it, just to spend time, but not to really show the different; some of the accents were repeated. I dislike that guy, ´cuz we can see only with his appearances that he is Latino, exactly from Puerto Rico, but what I learn is how to define in the Puerto Rico´s accents.
JUAN DAVID VINASCO 11-A 21 ACCENTS IN SPANISH: I think that this video show us how big is the Spanish language, I can say even bigger than the English because in Spanish we can use more accents and more words to do something very easy like to say our name. Is this the case of Carlos Santos, who show us the different accents in Spanish, including the possibility to switch off that, speaking English while he speaks Spanish, that’s why I prefer the Spanish, because is a very rich language with its words, expressions, accents and slangs.
Diana Vargas 21 Accents by Amy Walker: This is a new way to now about accents around the world, is a dynamic video, in the this we can recognizer accents to Germany, Russia, France, North America and other countries. This girl just makes a funny presentation but always with a final intention, be more attractive for the people who fine this video. I mean this is not an academic video but is a good idea to teach other view to accents and make the English so different and dynamic.
english accents This video showed us all the particular accents we can find around the world and how sometimes it gets difficult to understand some countries English pronunciation, because we cannot deny that they are pretty much influenced by the region that gives the talker and specific way to express himself.
Spanish accents In our native language Spanish, we also can find different ways to handle its rhythm, pronunciation and accent; besides this truth it doesn’t matter how far a country is from another one, it all depends on the culture, society, and definitely the history that each county has been through in order to have a particular way of communicating and getting a language.
Jeronimo Pareja. 21 accents: The video of Amy Walker is pretty good, she can improve herself speaking with different accents. I think that she has a special ability, even when she uses accents of countries that I don’t recognize, I can see the differences between those accents.
21 accents in Spanish: The video is really funny, that man makes me laugh a lot; but I think that he decided to do that video because he wanted something fun, but he doesn’t imitate the accents in a properly way. It makes me think that in Spanish I can judge things with more security.
Juan Felipe Garcia 11A Comments 21 Accents “Amy Walker” In this video the girl shows us the importance of English. Is necessary to improve every day the idiomatic expressions and slangs. Because that is the way to make a connection with a lot of countries around the world. For example she expresses what is the difference between British and American accents.
21 Accents in Spanish The man who did the video is an excellent example of a bilingual person. He dominates both idioms and he knows which ones are the characteristics of every accent around Latin America. He can “switch off” according with the context and the cultural personality of each country.
NATALIA CASTRO 11A 21 ACCENTS There are many people around the world that have many different accents, so we should recognized all these accents to know where are they from. About English accents, is a little bit difficult to us to recognize all them, and sometimes to understand what they are saying, so we have to pay more attention to it.
21 ACCENTS IN SPANISH About accents in Spanish, there are also many of them which we have to know and recognize. We should pay attention to the ways people use to talk and express their selves. The video was good and let us realized about many kind of expressions and characteristics of many people around the world.
ALEJANDRO FERREIRA 11 A English Accents The video showed the diversity that English has in the world. In anywhere of the countries in the world is different because it depends the accent on the region. A video also showed that English is an important and universal language.
Spanish Accents 21 accents in Spanish is a compilation about the other forms to pronounciate this language, but in my opinion we need more knowledge, because exists more forms and differences to talk this language not only the forms of Puerto Rico and central America.
About the video, I thing that is very interesant because show us the more accents that the world have, the different forms that the man have to communicate, the different accents but the communicate is equal, some words are different but is doesn’t care 21 ACCENTS IN ESPANISH In this video, show us the accents in Spanish, but I don’t like, because don’t have all the accents, only have the ugly, in contrast whit the other video is very bad, because the other have all the accents of all places, in this no.
Juan Felipe Ruiz A. 11A COMMENTS 21 ACCENTS “Amy Walker” I think that in different places many people speak with different accents, which are normal because no one is equal to others, and it is necessary to speak with different accents because is needed to make the difference between countries. This video is very interesting because it shows many differences in the pronunciation in many countries.
21 ACCENTS IN SPANISH I think that this man have much ability to do that because imitate all accents in Spanish is very difficult to do.
Diana Quintana 11A 21 ACCENTS In that video I saw the different accents that we could find in English, but sometimes we don’t pay attention to it. That video is interesting because is the easiest form to show us the differences of the persons to talk English and live in different countries. 21 ACCENTS IN SPANISH All of us talk Spanish and is easy to see the difference of accents in Spanish, and the accents that we saw in the video I knew because that is my language, but I think that was better the firs video because with the same sentence is easier to see the difference of it.
Diana Vargas 11-a 21 accents in Español by Carlos Santos.
I really don’t like this video, but is new and funny way to make some differences with some accents in Latin America but this guy only makes the presentation whit a puertorican accents, and others. But we can recognize that in our language,we also can find different ways to sound diferent.
21 accents Hey you really have like a 21 different nationalities, in your work you are so good, I would like you to be more expressive, but everything is ok. I like a lot your fluency with the most difficult accents as the one from Germany or Czech Republic.
21 accents in Spanish This guy is a little bit funny, I think to make the accent of the people who talk in Spanish Is more difficult than the people that talk in English, you have to be more expressive and you have to have the abilities because everybody can do it.
21 ACCENTS Having the ability to do 21 different accents all at once with such a great fluency is not very common and that’s why I think this work should be well appreciated. Is a very good way to notice the variations that one single language can have, all these depending of its environment.
21 ACCENTS IN SPANISH I guess this is a funny way of showing the different accents Spanish can have. Despites he, Carlos Santos, couldn’t do it all at once, I think he shows in this video that Spanish accents can be more complex than English because you have to be more expressive not only in your voice, but in your pronunciation and gestures.
This video was so funny, and teaches the differences accents of differences countries. In this video show the expressions that any person do it when she or he speaks.
21 accents in Spanish
In this video saw the differences forms that the persons talked with the others and some differences that in some countries are equals.
Jose Manuel Cardona 11a Comments.. 21 Accents – “Amy Walker” The video 21 accents is very interesting, as it shows how, in different parts of the world, the little differences in the way a word is pronounced makes a huge difference is the overall accent. Sometimes the differences between regional accents are subtle, but then again, there are some accents which differ drastically in the way they are pronounced… 21 Accents in Spanish This video catches my eye for a specific reason: The person who is doing the accents is having a very fun time doing this… The skill to switch off, honestly, is nothing new to me, nor is it something to be amazed at, because it’s a common skill that many people possess (Including myself)… It’s something rare to see in South America, but that’s only because we don’t have very many immigrants than come from other continents where another language is spoken… On the other hand, it’s very common in other countries such as Canada and the U.S.A, where there is a lot of immigration and people have the need to learn a language different than their native one, but still have the desire to speak their original language. Nevertheless, the video is very amusing and worth the time….
Sebastian Rodriguez 11B 21 Accents The video called 21 accents, in the one who speaks Amy Walker, was one really good video in which the woman that speaks do it great and in a very clearly way. She spoke in 21 accents, sort of them from England and some other from USA as much as in other parts of the world. We can see that she had a really good management of the accents and she did the video professionally and she got some commitment on it.
21 Accents In Español The video called 21 accents in Español is produced by a man that tries to copy the languages of some Latin American countries. I think he was really good at doing this but he needs to practice more because sometimes I cannot understand what he was saying. For the last, I think the video must have some kind of explanation because he says some accents but he do not clarify where this accents are from.
Maria Jose Rico 11b Comment 21 accents I think that 21 accents is very interesting because I can listen all the different accents that the countries have and the how some accents are too difficult to understand than others . in the other hand I think that this video show us how the accent do that the language can be more easy or difficult for us. Comment 21 accents in Spanish In this video we can see that the people speak very different in the countries and how the accent can identify the nationality of this person. I like too much this video because y can hear how our language have different forms to speak , and how any country have his own words and expressions that are just of this country. Even is Spanish some persons talk too fast or too wear and this difficult me to understand what he try to say
Ana Marcela Botero 11B 21 Accents I think the 21 accents video is very interesting. It’s amazing how this woman has trained herself to be able to imitate so many accents. The most impressive is that she does it all at once and she doesn’t get confused or anything. 21 Accents in Spanish This is a really funny video; some of the accents were not even close to the real ones, for example the one from Spain. Some things he said were impossible to understand, like the last one from Puerto Rico. The accent from Argentina was hilarious!
ANA MARIA MENDEZ 11B 21 accents We have the idea that there´s just a mood to speak English but with this video, we could realize that different countries, has different pitches, fast talking and pronunciation of the words. Is kind of funny and impacting the fact that we actually can´t speak like a real native even if we try hard. We always will have a different stuff when we speak English. However, English is a beautiful language and even if you can´t be a native speaker, you can join speaking it. 21 accents in Spanish. With this video, we saw that as funny as the video of Amy Walker who made different accents in English, speaking in Spanish can be too. Each country has its own way to speak and pronunciation. Again, we could see that the Pitch, Intonation, Pace, Fast Talking and Slang Usage is really important to know when you travel around the world and they are more, as soon as you want to communicate.
Valeria Beltrán Martínez 11B Comment of the video: 21 accents I liked very much this video because it gives to us a great idea about the different English accent that exists around the world. Amy Walker has an extraordinary capacity of imitation. This video helped me to understand different ways to speak the same language, just like with Spanish, where people speak with different intonation, pitch, etc. It was a little difficult for me to understand some accent because there were very faster and the pitch was very strange, but I really enjoyed.
Comment of the video: 21 accent in Spanish This video was very funny and I enjoyed a lot of. In special, the part where he imitate Colombian accent with the movie “Maria full of grace”. This guy has the capacity to speak with many accents and in most of the cases is very similar to the real accent that he´s imitating. Spanish has a lot of accents. For example, here in Colombia there are many different ways to speak.
21 Accents in English: I think it’s a great video, I believe the girl does something extraordinary and it shows you the small differences between the way of talking in different countries and cities. I liked the agility and quickness she’s got to switch off from one accent to the other. It’s amazing how a small intonation can change the entire way you hear the same phrase.
21 Acentos en español From the different accents that the guys tries to play, I believe that only the first twelve of them, he can achieve his objective, while in the other ones you lose interest because it gets boring and he stops trying. It’s a video where he mixes entertainment with and interesting display of talent, by imitating accents mostly from Puerto Rico.
21 accents in English: • May be this exercise is a really good way to understand the changes that the human beans have been doing through the time to the idiom and with that changes all the diversity that they have made. With another point of view I think that the people that did those videos are people that have seen the necessity of the population to know about English in the case of Emmy walker and all the ways that the people speak it, also it help us to understand better to all the people without caring their accent and their mode to speak. 21 accents in Spanish • I think that in this case the objective is so similar because this video help us to recognize the variety of accents that we have in our idiom and also help us to see that the idiom is so important to the cultures because it differences each one of others. I think that in the case of Spanish there are more accents and varieties maybe is because I don’t really know a lot of English but I think Spanish have more changes.
Mauricio Maya Eguizabal. 21 accents Well, I just saw those videos that were really good and I believe that the video of Amy Walke, was excellent, I know that she took it really seriously, and I understood mostly all that I listen. Someone who does something like that is someone who really like the language and that is interesting that the other people knows the difference. It was grate and I enjoy it.
21 Accents in Spanish The second video of the guy that speak in Spanish was really strange, first he didn’t talk the Colombian accent… but also it was really cool, and I laughed a lot watching it because was funny, but really I don’t understood all he said, despite he spoke in Spanish. But I ask me how someone that speak really good the English can make some works like he did, and more difficult, make the accents of the second language. It was good and really interesting.
It was a very interesting exercise because makes us realize that there are a lot of different ways of speaking the same language and with that information the English can be more understandable for everybody. The video is shown very clear with good spoken English in spite of the different accents that the girl spoke. It’s very important to now de different accents and words depending of the country because if you are a tourist in a different country and you speak English may be you couldn’t understand because of the accent of the people there.
21 accents in Spanish:
I speak Spanish and I think that in the video most of the accents are from one country and few of them from others, may be if he had done 2 per country in South America the video would be better. However the video is as important as the previous for the ones who want to speak Spanish or those who speak Spanish because not always is easy to understand other people with their accent.
Comments: 1. “21 accents”: I think that is an excellent representation of the different accents around the world, the video help to make differences between the Italian, England and French accent. It shows how in the United States have a lot of different accents just like here in Colombia. It’s amazing the ability of the girl that makes the video because she changes her voice in a perfect way to represent each accent. It’s a really cool video, and I think that is a fun way to learn. 2. “21 accents in Spanish”: this video it’s very similar to the first, except that is a guy that makes the representations of the accents. It’s a very funny video because he represents the accents in a comic way. He shows the Latin American’s accents, however I obviously know all of them, but it will help people of different countries or continents that need to learn about us and our accents.
ANDRES F VILLEGAS 11B 21 accents I thing that this video is so good and I realized that the accent make more easy or difficult to understand the ideas, its help us to start realizing that in the world are different accents and we need to be able to understand each one for make more easy our communication with other people around the world.
21 accents in Spanish This video is so funny because, I remember some persons who talk like him and I can understand everything that he said, however him complement the voice with make different actions with his face it make the video more interesting
Natalia García Hurtado 21-accent When I see the video, I think that some accents are more difficult to understand than others. In the countries we can find many and different accents depending of the context, the city that the person comes from or the family. Generally the British people have a strong accent, in my opinion some words are difficult to understand but in generally all the phrases are clear. This accent is the most elegant. The American accent are the clearest in my opinion maybe because in the school always learn the American speaking. The Australia accent is impossible to understand they speak so fast and complicated.
21-accent in Spanish The people who speak Spanish speaks faster than the people who speaks English, the Spanish accents at same that the English accents depends of many fact like the country, the city or family, in the same city we could fin different accents it’s because all the person have a particular way to speak or express. There are many ways to speak an idiom, its important know all we can because in that way he can understand more people around the world and have more control of the language
Ana cecilia Munoz 11 b • 21 Accents: After I watch the video, I realized that English is different in all world. It depends the place people come from or where they are living. In the video the girl speaks in many accents like Ireland, Italy, Germany, Russia and British, I think the last one is the best, it intonation is great and the slang usage are easy to learn. • 21 Accents in Spanish As well Spanish language has different accents, first the man started speaking as Puerto Rico people and it’s so funny the fast talking they have. Another curious thing is that countries as Argentina, Chile or Uruguay accent sound very similar. I think the accent people have is related with their country costumes and culture.
21 Accents- Comment: I think that Amy Walker is a very talented person. She talks with many different accents in English from all over the world and when she changes the accent she really sounds like she is native from the part she is talking like. It is rather interesting to see how you understand the same sentence better with some accents than with others.
21 Accents in Spanish-Comment: I didn’t like the video because it has very bad volume and I couldn’t hear most of them. However, the few I heard clearly, were hilarious and he did really sound like the people he was impersonating. The guy is very talented because he doesn’t always repeat the same sentences; he changes them and does it very fast.
21 Accents I think this is a very interesting video because it shows us how the people have different ways of pronunciation that change and depends of the country where they have born or of the city where they live. I think this video is important and interesting because here we can see that sometimes it’s very difficult to us to understand some people because they speaks to fast or they don’t have a good vocalization but also we can see and identify with others persons accents that we can understand perfectly.
21 accents en español I think that these videos are very similar because both of them are about someone trying to imitate 21 different accents. Also I think it very important because it help us to recognize the variety of accents that we have in our idiom and also help us to see that the idiom is so important for the cultures because it differences us of others. In this video I think he didn’t have very clear from what place the accents where but Instead of that he imitate the voices very well. Finally I can say that the first video I think it’s a little more clear and amazing first of all because she didn’t repeat the accents from a same place like the second man did it, and because she have more clear where the accents where from.
In this video we could see the different forms of accents in a same idiom, sometimes in different countries or even in a same country like the United Kingdom with the accents of London (England) and Belfast (Northern Ireland) or the United States of America with the accents of California, South Caroline, Texas, Brooklyn (New York) and Seattle (Washington). This video helps a lot to the people who is learning or studying English in countries where the English is not the official language, because it shows the different ways to speak an idiom, more a worldwide idiom like English. The work made by Amy Walker was pretty amazing and complete
21 Accents in Spanish
For me that the Spanish is my mother tongue, this video was remarkable by the work made by Carlos Santos but also was a little incomplete because he focused a lot in the Puerto Rican’s accents unknowing a lot of Spanish accents like Peruvian, Colombian, Ecuadorian, Venezuelan, between others. He also speaks incorrectly a few accents like the Chilean and Mexican so is not so reliable. He tried to imitate the work of Amy Walker but he failed.
“21 ACCENTS” IN THIS VIDEO I COULD UNDERSTAND THAT EACH COUNTRY HAS DIFFERENT ACCENTS. SO IMAGINE ALL THE ACCENTS THAT WE HAVE AROUND THE WORLD. THIS GIRL HAS AN EXCELLENT VOCALIZATION BECAUSE YOU CAN TELL THE DIFFERENCES QUICKLY AND IT’S SO EASY TO UNDERSTAND HER.
21 ACCENTS IN SPANISH THIS IS A DIFFERENT VIDEO WITH DIFFERENT ACCENTS IN SPANISH, BUT HE MAKES HIS PRESENTATION SPEACIALLY WITH ACCENTS OF PUERTO RICO. THIS IS NOT IMPORTANT BECAUSE JUST IN PUERTO RICO THERE ARE TOO MANY ACCENTS AND IT DEPENDS OF YOUR SOCIAL POSITION, YOUR PERSONALITY, YOUR REGION, YOUR TYPE OR WORK OR FAMILY. I THINK THAT THE SPANISH IS A DIFFICULT LANGUAGE WITH SO MANY WORDS, ACCENTS, VERBS AND OTHERS THAT MAKE IT IMPORTANT AND VALUABLE.
Amy Walker is already a good example of 21 Accents of some parts of the world, because she knows exactly, how the pronunciation is … pitch… speed, showing us all the differences between the 21 accents, for now I think that we have to have a perfect listening to understand the majority of those 21 accents, because to understand we need to know English and for now, the most important thing is to know the culture in which we are. Thanks Amy Walker, my congratulations… You have a good level of speaking!
21 Accents in Español Video Comment:
It is really funny how Carlos Santos explains 21 accents in Spanish, I think that he has to know many kinds of people to know how they talk, it’s not easy to remember all the accents, but in Spanish it’s really easy to understand. We can see that the English is very different because English has more kinds of rhythm, pitch (intonation) and pronunciation, because in my opinion the people talking English change words… depending on the culture, but they don’t change the meaning of the world, so the people who speak Spanish don’t change the words, they only have different pitch levels. Thanks Carlos Santos…
21 Accents This video is a great example of many different ways of speaking and pronunciation. We can notice that each country has developed their own way to communicate to the others, even though they all speak the same language. This woman shows us how the words, slangs, intonation and even the face expressions can change depending on where you are. Because of that, every culture has something very particular that makes them special and recognized in the whole world. I think it is an incredible work and an amazing way to learn.
21 Accents in Spanish As the first video (21 Accents), this one shows us another way to speak and to determine each culture. Now, a man is trying to demonstrate that it doesn’t matter what idiom you are speaking, in this case: Spanish, what is important is where you want to communicate and how you should do it. We can hear many different slangs and some words and expressions that only you will hear in a particular place or country.
Juan Martin Bustamante Cap 21 Accents comment This short but great in content video of Amy Walker, is really a work of art because she achieves with her voice to personify different type of accents from many parts of the world. It is to admire Amy Walker capacities to change pitch, intonation, pace, fast talking, and at the same time to be clear.
21 Accents in Spanish comment I agree with Carlos Santos with his opinion of Amy Walker, that is weird the way Amy Walker could speak in 21 different accents. From Carlos I think he also make a fantastic work from accents in Spanish because in fact this is a very funny work that shows intonations from my first language.
SANTIAGO CORREA GIRALDO 11D 21 ACCENTS (COMMENT) This is an excellent video, because is a different form about the explanation of most of the accent in diverse languages in the world. In my personal opinion I like this video because is a funny form to see others accents in English around the world and is interesting because when I travel to other country I can recognize where is the country of this person. Other aspect because this video is interesting is for the reason that when you can identify the special accents in the countries you can acquire fluency and in the conversations with different people. And in my personal opinion with this ability you can help other people to understand to communicate easily with other person with less knowledge of English. 21 ACCENTS IN SPANISH (COMMENT) This is a very good video and very funny because is interesting to see the forms to speaks the most of the countries in Latin American people before to see this video I knew some accents of those countries, for example Argentina, Venezuela, Cuba and some accents of Puerto Rico, but this video wide my knowledge about the accents in the Spanish countries. I think this video is a very funny to know different of ways to learn.
STEPHANIA ANGEL MUÑOZ 11D Comment: 21 accents: We can see with the video that the persons accents are different depending of the people come, it’s very important because we can know how is the personality and the culture of each person, the person can be aggressive or friendly when is going to say hello. And sometimes we can see with what kind of people is easier to begin to speak. 21 accents in Spanish: Its interesting the person who speaks English can copy different accents that are diverse and unique and also in Spanish. I watched the big enormous different that is a life in the same country but in a different city the accent is very singular, can be fast, sometimes funny and maybe sociable.
Comments: 21 accents: This is a nice video, it shows different accents of the world (UK, Ireland, Italy, Germany, Czech Republic, Russia, France, Australia, New Zealand, and around North America). The accent depending of the region and is very important to meet someone in the moment to understand other cultures. Amy Walker shows in this video simply and clearly the different accent, because of this it is easier to learn to recognize it.
21 accent in Spanish This is a funny video, in this video we can see as our languages (Spanish) have different accents but clearly understand what we mean. Because we use very well our language.
MARIA ANDREA GARCIA 11C 21 accents: Some of them I heard were the same, I liked the one of Italy it was the only one that I recognized, because I don’t know really well the others. It is amazing how that girl can do all those accents, she has a good ability. I think she most know all of them. 21 accents in español: Different to the 21 accents in English this one, it seems to be like a play or a challenge of the man that wants to imitated the woman of the previous video. He did not have the ability to pronounce all the kinds of accents, and some of them seem to be the same and he neither knew the place in which they speak them. He not even did 21 different accents; some of them have sadly the same.
21 accents in English Amy Walker shows us a lot of accents, it was fantastic to listen to all those accents and realize where they come from... They sound very real and I had a lot of fun while I was listening to it. Also with this video I realize how many accents exist in English and it was really interesting to discover it. Amy walker did all the accents very natural. 21 accents in Spanish: This guy made a lot of accents but most of them were form Puerto Rico. He was very funny because he made a lot of faces while he was talking, but if you compare this video with ‘’21 accents in English ‘’ you realize that Amy walker is more professional doing accents. You can have more fun watching this video but if you want to learn about the way people talk around the world you should see the first video. Also I think that the guy of 21 accents in Spanish only made this video to have fun and make other people laugh. He ignored many accents and in some times the accent didn’t sound like the accent of the country for example Mexican accent wasn’t very real. The accents form Argentina, Uruguay and Chile sounded like if they were the same because he didn’t change the pronunciation and the accent, anyway we couldn’t avoid this guy having good humor.
SANTIAGO FLOREZ MILLAN 11-C 21 ACCENTS I think this girl do an excellent job speaking many accents in English. It’s very interesting how she makes a difference between the accents of many countries like Italy, Germany, Australia, etc. I think not too much people can do this job. It is amazing the abilities of this woman. 21 ACCENTS IN SPANISH I think this video is not an amazing video. Because this man only try to imitate all the accents in Spanish but he doesn’t do a good job. I think the man doesn’t know too much about the different regions of the real accents. I think it’s not something well elaborated because we can see that he was only improvising.
Natalia Constain Jaramillo 11-c 21 accents. This video shows me that in English, same like Spanish, are a lot of ways to pronunciation the words, a lot of accents. I didn’t know that in one country can exist a lot of accents, and she shows me that. Really she takes it seriously because she makes the different between all of accents very clearly. 21 accents in Spanish. 21 accents in Spanish is a very funny video. However he makes a good work making the mimic of all of accents that exist in Spanish, more exactly in Puerto Rico, even though he treat to make the mimic of others Latin American countries, like Mexico and Argentina, etc. I like this video because he makes me laugh, and at the same time makes me realize that in my language exist a lot of different modifications in the way of pronunciation the worlds.
21 ACCENTS This video is funny, because is interesting see a person that say the same sentence in different way. I think that is important do that, because when you go to other country, maybe because of the accent, the people don´t understand you. For example, if you go to France and you talk in English and this people know English, but don´t understand, you can try to say the same sentence with the accent of this country, and maybe these persons can understand you. Sometimes I didn´t understand the difference of the accents, but was good.
21 ACCENTS IN SPANISH This video is very interesting, because, sometimes I can´t do that. But is very weird too, because this man imitates excellent some accents, but other no. For example, it was awesome when he imitated an announcer, because is difficult do that for me. But he really didn´t know the differences to some accents of countries. In general was good, but in some cases he exaggerated, however his pronunciation was good.
Santiago palomino Cardozo 11C 21 accents: Is very interesting the ability of this girl, especially when she took in other languages because she know many of this and had the accent of each one, but many of the accents of cities of USA I feel that are similar or I didn’t feel the difference, but generally is good to recognize the different accents even in the same country, like England or USA. 21 accents in Spain: Is a good intent, he talk in many accents of countries who talk Spanish like Mexico, Puerto Rico, Spain, Chile, Uruguay, Argentina and others, this presentation is very funny specially when he talk like a Boricua ( Person of Puerto Rico) or like a person of Mexico, he talked many times like this and made this very funny.
21 accents: That was a very entertain video because we can listen the different accents of different parts of the world. I don’t understand someone’s but the majority I understood. We can listen very clear the big difference in the accent in only one country thanks to the big ability of her.
21 accents in Espanol That video was not very entertain because Carlos Santos is not a good imitator, the majority of the accents that he was imitating were not real, for example the Mexican accent was nothing similar, he cant imitate well because he exagery the someone’s words. And in someone’s parts of the video he made a stupid faces and I don’t like that
Diego Fernando Bedoya B. 11c “21 accents”, in this video shows a big variety of accents, from different places, from Europe and North America, is amazing how words change their way to be said depending on where they come from, some of this accents make the words hard to be understood by anyone. It’s a great to be able to talk in many accents; it’s a great ability that not everybody has it. Another video that teachers had presented to us was “21 accents in Spanish”. It’s an imitation of the version in English, but it seems to be like a joke for the one that is trying to make the different accents. Although is a good demonstration of the different ways to speak Spanish from Mexico to Spain, and he make an effort to present a good job, the video shows a variety of idiomatic expressions or slangs that distinct a place or a country.
Laura Rosero 11C. 21 accents This video was interesting, but really I don’t found the different in some of the accents. Whit this we can see the diversity of accent that exist around the word, that in all of the region the accent change a lot. Something that capture me attention is how this woman can learned or only the way that she reproduced the different accents one after the other. 21 accents in Spanish This other video is really comic, I think that is like a parody of the original version in English, but… he did all he could do to emitted the other one. After some minutes it becomes a little ridiculous. But it demonstrated the different accents in Puerto Rico because it is his… references for take the accents; he exaggerate a littler be because, is true that there speak similar but not like he said, and is so improvised, whit no preparation.
21 Accents The Video It´s shocking because is difficult to learn all diversity of accent. When she speaks also feel different personality of each country. For example France people, was very refined when talk. Each Country has this own cultural position, and because of that the same sentences sounds very different for the accent. 21 Accents in Spanish In the same country also been differences in the native idiom. It is funny to see the features of each culture. For example Puerto Rico has a heavy accent and many slangs (“que la que hay”, “tu sabes”)This man has a great domain in idioms, because one thing is speak two or more idioms, but imitate the accent of each country is very difficult. I like it
Juan José Orrego 11-c Amy Walker: With Amy walker we can see the important of improve our English, she show us that is not only to know English, also you must have the capacities to communicate you with another person’s no matter where he from around the world, as you see, in every accents that she show us, she used different slangs and idiomatic expressions that you don´t learn with the normal English. Carlos Santos: Most of the video are funny, but sometimes Carlos try to do funny some that aren´t funny, he is a person who dominates very well the both languages (English, Spanish), and he know exactly the characteristics that each Latin American country have on their idiom, beside he did the comparison with some funny that characterize every country. He imitates accents mostly from Puerto Rico.
Martha Salazar 11c About Amy Walker and her 21 Europe’s and North America’s accents I think that she has a good ability. She really can imitate the accents of people from others countries. This video expresses the diversity of the ways that people have to speak English depending of their nation and also show us that each country has specific languages’ characteristics.
Carlos Santos does a good job imitating not only the accents of different countries of where the Spanish language is spoken. Also he improvises and acts the idiomatic expressions of the different cultures showing us that instead we are Latins we have different ways of communicated or speak our language.
Manuela Renjifo Fatat 11-C 21 Accents: This video is a really good job to show people many of the accents that exists on the entire world, is well explained, talked and dramatized by Amy walker who has a huge ability to make the different accents and who surely has a big knowledge of them and of many languages too. She also shows that when the people talk, depending of the country or city they came from, they have different expressions and attitudes on their speech even on the same country like United States, are different forms of accents.
21 accents en español: Although this video is a funny version of the serious one, it also shows many accents in a comic way and the way of express of many people too, so we can see how people on countries like Puerto Rico, modified the words or shortens them for talking too fast, that’s why many times is really hard to understand the accent of another side of the world or even on your own country. It is really hilarious!
Maria Alejandra Garcia Mejia 11c 21 Accents I like this video, in my opinion the voice of the woman was reflected the different way, or form to say something of the different countries and estates. I like, because it a very real accent of the world. 21 Accents in español This video was very funny, because the man was reflected in a good and a real accent of Latin America or the countries when talk Spanish, unlike, he was very comic and a little ridiculous person. In my opinion this video is the better than other videos.
I think that Amy walker has a great ability to make different accents in a correct way. I think that the video is very good, the way that she changes her voice and accent let us know that in the world many countries have diffent slangs and accents to communicate. Also you can see that accent depends of the place where you're living.
ACCENTS: I think that the video isn't good enough. The man is joking with the diffent Latin accents and it is the opposite of Amy Walker. The sound is very bad so I couldn't understand very well what he was trying to say.
Johan Sebastian Rojas Velez 21 Accents: The world is very extensive, the diversity is present in all the things that the human created to survive in this planet, the idiom is an example for this , in all the countries ,cities and towns the people have different accents , depending of the idiom, the culture and the story, we can find accents with different intonation ,like in London , Belfast, Brooklyn,Texas and others. Thank you Amy Walker by you excellent job. 21 Accents in Spanish: Carlos Santos make a great job, he is an excellent example of a bilingual and multicultural person , that dominate the different slangs around the world . Is interesant the form that he characterized , is funny and cool because in my case I imagine an Scotland , and Boricua that say me something.
Laharenas 11-B Finally I found where to comment, i thought it was in the blog, didnt realize it was in the video's link. Anyways, in the Amy's Walker video we could see how most of the people's english differences are based on the accent, fluency, but not on pronunciation. She did a great job, grabbing accents from all around the world, letting notice the influece of each region (europe, america) About the second video, btw, he doesnt look like me. He did the accents while using a lot of facial expressions in order to make it funny.
Ana Cristina Salinas 11 d 21 Accents- Comment: The girl is very funny and has a lot of talent because she can speak like she was from different parts of the world. I never imagined that there existed so many different accents in english.
21 Accents in Spanish-Comment: The video was very hard to hear because the volume was very low, but the things I heard were very funny because the man can speak like different parts of the world.

In this first video, I could see how different can be the different accents even in the same country, like England where she says the different accents that people from that country can say, like London and Belfast. Also is the case from United States where people from Seattle, California and Brooklyn have different ways to say their name. Finally I think that is also important to see how people from different countries have their own accents, like Italian, Russian, and Australian or from New Zeeland.

The girl is very successful switching his mind to be able to change the way her voice sounds to make the different accents around the world. I think that this ability could help all people who have it to communicate easily, by knowing the different accents, in oral expression in different countries.

Well, about the video, I think that is funny, ´cuz the girl makes me think that’s nuts, but also it show us so many different accents, and with it we can know how other countries speaks the same language, and in some accents is easy to differentiate.
21 ACCENTS IN SPANISH:
This video makes me think that he was making fun of our language, I think that ´cuz in comparation with the girl, we can think that he made it, just to spend time, but not to really show the different; some of the accents were repeated. I dislike that guy, ´cuz we can see only with his appearances that he is Latino, exactly from Puerto Rico, but what I learn is how to define in the Puerto Rico´s accents.
JUAN DAVID VINASCO 11-A
21 ACCENTS IN SPANISH:
I think that this video show us how big is the Spanish language, I can say even bigger than the English because in Spanish we can use more accents and more words to do something very easy like to say our name. Is this the case of Carlos Santos, who show us the different accents in Spanish, including the possibility to switch off that, speaking English while he speaks Spanish, that’s why I prefer the Spanish, because is a very rich language with its words, expressions, accents and slangs.

This is a new way to now about accents around the world, is a dynamic video, in the this we can recognizer accents to Germany, Russia, France, North America and other countries. This girl just makes a funny presentation but always with a final intention, be more attractive for the people who fine this video. I mean this is not an academic video but is a good idea to teach other view to accents and make the English so different and dynamic.

english accents
This video showed us all the particular accents we can find around the world and how sometimes it gets difficult to understand some countries English pronunciation, because we cannot deny that they are pretty much influenced by the region that gives the talker and specific way to express himself.
Spanish accents
In our native language Spanish, we also can find different ways to handle its rhythm, pronunciation and accent; besides this truth it doesn’t matter how far a country is from another one, it all depends on the culture, society, and definitely the history that each county has been through in order to have a particular way of communicating and getting a language.

The video of Amy Walker is pretty good, she can improve herself speaking with different accents. I think that she has a special ability, even when she uses accents of countries that I don’t recognize, I can see the differences between those accents.
21 accents in Spanish:
The video is really funny, that man makes me laugh a lot; but I think that he decided to do that video because he wanted something fun, but he doesn’t imitate the accents in a properly way. It makes me think that in Spanish I can judge things with more security.

In this video the girl shows us the importance of English. Is necessary to improve every day the idiomatic expressions and slangs. Because that is the way to make a connection with a lot of countries around the world. For example she expresses what is the difference between British and American accents.

The man who did the video is an excellent example of a bilingual person. He dominates both idioms and he knows which ones are the characteristics of every accent around Latin America. He can “switch off” according with the context and the cultural personality of each country.

There are many people around the world that have many different accents, so we should recognized all these accents to know where are they from. About English accents, is a little bit difficult to us to recognize all them, and sometimes to understand what they are saying, so we have to pay more attention to it.
21 ACCENTS IN SPANISH
About accents in Spanish, there are also many of them which we have to know and recognize. We should pay attention to the ways people use to talk and express their selves. The video was good and let us realized about many kind of expressions and characteristics of many people around the world.

The video showed the diversity that English has in the world. In anywhere of the countries in the world is different because it depends the accent on the region. A video also showed that English is an important and universal language.
Spanish Accents
21 accents in Spanish is a compilation about the other forms to pronounciate this language, but in my opinion we need more knowledge, because exists more forms and differences to talk this language not only the forms of Puerto Rico and central America.

I think that in different places many people speak with different accents, which are normal because no one is equal to others, and it is necessary to speak with different accents because is needed to make the difference between countries. This video is very interesting because it shows many differences in the pronunciation in many countries.

Hey you really have like a 21 different nationalities, in your work you are so good, I would like you to be more expressive, but everything is ok. I like a lot your fluency with the most difficult accents as the one from Germany or Czech Republic.

Having the ability to do 21 different accents all at once with such a great fluency is not very common and that’s why I think this work should be well appreciated. Is a very good way to notice the variations that one single language can have, all these depending of its environment.
21 ACCENTS IN SPANISH
I guess this is a funny way of showing the different accents Spanish can have. Despites he, Carlos Santos, couldn’t do it all at once, I think he shows in this video that Spanish accents can be more complex than English because you have to be more expressive not only in your voice, but in your pronunciation and gestures.

21 Accents – “Amy Walker”
The video 21 accents is very interesting, as it shows how, in different parts of the world, the little differences in the way a word is pronounced makes a huge difference is the overall accent. Sometimes the differences between regional accents are subtle, but then again, there are some accents which differ drastically in the way they are pronounced…
21 Accents in Spanish
This video catches my eye for a specific reason: The person who is doing the accents is having a very fun time doing this… The skill to switch off, honestly, is nothing new to me, nor is it something to be amazed at, because it’s a common skill that many people possess (Including myself)… It’s something rare to see in South America, but that’s only because we don’t have very many immigrants than come from other continents where another language is spoken… On the other hand, it’s very common in other countries such as Canada and the U.S.A, where there is a lot of immigration and people have the need to learn a language different than their native one, but still have the desire to speak their original language.
Nevertheless, the video is very amusing and worth the time….

The video called 21 accents, in the one who speaks Amy Walker, was one really good video in which the woman that speaks do it great and in a very clearly way. She spoke in 21 accents, sort of them from England and some other from USA as much as in other parts of the world. We can see that she had a really good management of the accents and she did the video professionally and she got some commitment on it.
21 Accents In Español
The video called 21 accents in Español is produced by a man that tries to copy the languages of some Latin American countries. I think he was really good at doing this but he needs to practice more because sometimes I cannot understand what he was saying. For the last, I think the video must have some kind of explanation because he says some accents but he do not clarify where this accents are from.

Comment 21 accents
I think that 21 accents is very interesting because I can listen all the different accents that the countries have and the how some accents are too difficult to understand than others . in the other hand I think that this video show us how the accent do that the language can be more easy or difficult for us.
Comment 21 accents in Spanish
In this video we can see that the people speak very different in the countries and how the accent can identify the nationality of this person. I like too much this video because y can hear how our language have different forms to speak , and how any country have his own words and expressions that are just of this country. Even is Spanish some persons talk too fast or too wear and this difficult me to understand what he try to say

We have the idea that there´s just a mood to speak English but with this video, we could realize that different countries, has different pitches, fast talking and pronunciation of the words. Is kind of funny and impacting the fact that we actually can´t speak like a real native even if we try hard. We always will have a different stuff when we speak English. However, English is a beautiful language and even if you can´t be a native speaker, you can join speaking it.
21 accents in Spanish.
With this video, we saw that as funny as the video of Amy Walker who made different accents in English, speaking in Spanish can be too.
Each country has its own way to speak and pronunciation. Again, we could see that the Pitch, Intonation, Pace, Fast Talking and Slang Usage is really important to know when you travel around the world and they are more, as soon as you want to communicate.

Comment of the video: 21 accents
I liked very much this video because it gives to us a great idea about the different English accent that exists around the world. Amy Walker has an extraordinary capacity of imitation. This video helped me to understand different ways to speak the same language, just like with Spanish, where people speak with different intonation, pitch, etc.
It was a little difficult for me to understand some accent because there were very faster and the pitch was very strange, but I really enjoyed.
Comment of the video: 21 accent in Spanish
This video was very funny and I enjoyed a lot of. In special, the part where he imitate Colombian accent with the movie “Maria full of grace”. This guy has the capacity to speak with many accents and in most of the cases is very similar to the real accent that he´s imitating. Spanish has a lot of accents. For example, here in Colombia there are many different ways to speak.

I think it’s a great video, I believe the girl does something extraordinary and it shows you the small differences between the way of talking in different countries and cities. I liked the agility and quickness she’s got to switch off from one accent to the other. It’s amazing how a small intonation can change the entire way you hear the same phrase.
21 Acentos en español
From the different accents that the guys tries to play, I believe that only the first twelve of them, he can achieve his objective, while in the other ones you lose interest because it gets boring and he stops trying. It’s a video where he mixes entertainment with and interesting display of talent, by imitating accents mostly from Puerto Rico.

• May be this exercise is a really good way to understand the changes that the human beans have been doing through the time to the idiom and with that changes all the diversity that they have made. With another point of view I think that the people that did those videos are people that have seen the necessity of the population to know about English in the case of Emmy walker and all the ways that the people speak it, also it help us to understand better to all the people without caring their accent and their mode to speak.
21 accents in Spanish
• I think that in this case the objective is so similar because this video help us to recognize the variety of accents that we have in our idiom and also help us to see that the idiom is so important to the cultures because it differences each one of others. I think that in the case of Spanish there are more accents and varieties maybe is because I don’t really know a lot of English but I think Spanish have more changes.

Well, I just saw those videos that were really good and I believe that the video of Amy Walke, was excellent, I know that she took it really seriously, and I understood mostly all that I listen. Someone who does something like that is someone who really like the language and that is interesting that the other people knows the difference. It was grate and I enjoy it.

The second video of the guy that speak in Spanish was really strange, first he didn’t talk the Colombian accent… but also it was really cool, and I laughed a lot watching it because was funny, but really I don’t understood all he said, despite he spoke in Spanish. But I ask me how someone that speak really good the English can make some works like he did, and more difficult, make the accents of the second language. It was good and really interesting.
21 Accents in English:
It was a very interesting exercise because makes us realize that there are a lot of different ways of speaking the same language and with that information the English can be more understandable for everybody.
The video is shown very clear with good spoken English in spite of the different accents that the girl spoke. It’s very important to now de different accents and words depending of the country because if you are a tourist in a different country and you speak English may be you couldn’t understand because of the accent of the people there.
21 accents in Spanish:
I speak Spanish and I think that in the video most of the accents are from one country and few of them from others, may be if he had done 2 per country in South America the video would be better. However the video is as important as the previous for the ones who want to speak Spanish or those who speak Spanish because not always is easy to understand other people with their accent.

1. “21 accents”: I think that is an excellent representation of the different accents around the world, the video help to make differences between the Italian, England and French accent. It shows how in the United States have a lot of different accents just like here in Colombia. It’s amazing the ability of the girl that makes the video because she changes her voice in a perfect way to represent each accent. It’s a really cool video, and I think that is a fun way to learn.
2. “21 accents in Spanish”: this video it’s very similar to the first, except that is a guy that makes the representations of the accents. It’s a very funny video because he represents the accents in a comic way. He shows the Latin American’s accents, however I obviously know all of them, but it will help people of different countries or continents that need to learn about us and our accents.

When I see the video, I think that some accents are more difficult to understand than others. In the countries we can find many and different accents depending of the context, the city that the person comes from or the family.
Generally the British people have a strong accent, in my opinion some words are difficult to understand but in generally all the phrases are clear. This accent is the most elegant.
The American accent are the clearest in my opinion maybe because in the school always learn the American speaking.
The Australia accent is impossible to understand they speak so fast and complicated.
21-accent in Spanish
The people who speak Spanish speaks faster than the people who speaks English, the Spanish accents at same that the English accents depends of many fact like the country, the city or family, in the same city we could fin different accents it’s because all the person have a particular way to speak or express.
There are many ways to speak an idiom, its important know all we can because in that way he can understand more people around the world and have more control of the language

After I watch the video, I realized that English is different in all world. It depends the place people come from or where they are living. In the video the girl speaks in many accents like Ireland, Italy, Germany, Russia and British, I think the last one is the best, it intonation is great and the slang usage are easy to learn.

As well Spanish language has different accents, first the man started speaking as Puerto Rico people and it’s so funny the fast talking they have. Another curious thing is that countries as Argentina, Chile or Uruguay accent sound very similar. I think the accent people have is related with their country costumes and culture.

I think that Amy Walker is a very talented person. She talks with many different accents in English from all over the world and when she changes the accent she really sounds like she is native from the part she is talking like. It is rather interesting to see how you understand the same sentence better with some accents than with others.

I didn’t like the video because it has very bad volume and I couldn’t hear most of them. However, the few I heard clearly, were hilarious and he did really sound like the people he was impersonating.

I think this video is important and interesting because here we can see that sometimes it’s very difficult to us to understand some people because they speaks to fast or they don’t have a good vocalization but also we can see and identify with others persons accents that we can understand perfectly.

I think that these videos are very similar because both of them are about someone trying to imitate 21 different accents. Also I think it very important because it help us to recognize the variety of accents that we have in our idiom and also help us to see that the idiom is so important for the cultures because it differences us of others. In this video I think he didn’t have very clear from what place the accents where but Instead of that he imitate the voices very well.
Finally I can say that the first video I think it’s a little more clear and amazing first of all because she didn’t repeat the accents from a same place like the second man did it, and because she have more clear where the accents where from.

This video helps a lot to the people who is learning or studying English in countries where the English is not the official language, because it shows the different ways to speak an idiom, more a worldwide idiom like English. The work made by Amy Walker was pretty amazing and complete
21 Accents in Spanish
For me that the Spanish is my mother tongue, this video was remarkable by the work made by Carlos Santos but also was a little incomplete because he focused a lot in the Puerto Rican’s accents unknowing a lot of Spanish accents like Peruvian, Colombian, Ecuadorian, Venezuelan, between others. He also speaks incorrectly a few accents like the Chilean and Mexican so is not so reliable. He tried to imitate the work of Amy Walker but he failed.

THIS IS A DIFFERENT VIDEO WITH DIFFERENT ACCENTS IN SPANISH, BUT HE MAKES HIS PRESENTATION SPEACIALLY WITH ACCENTS OF PUERTO RICO. THIS IS NOT IMPORTANT BECAUSE JUST IN PUERTO RICO THERE ARE TOO MANY ACCENTS AND IT DEPENDS OF YOUR SOCIAL POSITION, YOUR PERSONALITY, YOUR REGION, YOUR TYPE OR WORK OR FAMILY.
I THINK THAT THE SPANISH IS A DIFFICULT LANGUAGE WITH SO MANY WORDS, ACCENTS, VERBS AND OTHERS THAT MAKE IT IMPORTANT AND VALUABLE.

Amy Walker is already a good example of 21 Accents of some parts of the world, because she knows exactly, how the pronunciation is … pitch… speed, showing us all the differences between the 21 accents, for now I think that we have to have a perfect listening to understand the majority of those 21 accents, because to understand we need to know English and for now, the most important thing is to know the culture in which we are. Thanks Amy Walker, my congratulations… You have a good level of speaking!
21 Accents in Español Video Comment:
It is really funny how Carlos Santos explains 21 accents in Spanish, I think that he has to know many kinds of people to know how they talk, it’s not easy to remember all the accents, but in Spanish it’s really easy to understand. We can see that the English is very different because English has more kinds of rhythm, pitch (intonation) and pronunciation, because in my opinion the people talking English change words… depending on the culture, but they don’t change the meaning of the world, so the people who speak Spanish don’t change the words, they only have different pitch levels. Thanks Carlos Santos…
LOVE U! <3

This video is a great example of many different ways of speaking and pronunciation. We can notice that each country has developed their own way to communicate to the others, even though they all speak the same language. This woman shows us how the words, slangs, intonation and even the face expressions can change depending on where you are. Because of that, every culture has something very particular that makes them special and recognized in the whole world. I think it is an incredible work and an amazing way to learn.
21 Accents in Spanish
As the first video (21 Accents), this one shows us another way to speak and to determine each culture. Now, a man is trying to demonstrate that it doesn’t matter what idiom you are speaking, in this case: Spanish, what is important is where you want to communicate and how you should do it. We can hear many different slangs and some words and expressions that only you will hear in a particular place or country.

This short but great in content video of Amy Walker, is really a work of art because she achieves with her voice to personify different type of accents from many parts of the world. It is to admire Amy Walker capacities to change pitch, intonation, pace, fast talking, and at the same time to be clear.
21 Accents in Spanish comment
I agree with Carlos Santos with his opinion of Amy Walker, that is weird the way Amy Walker could speak in 21 different accents.
From Carlos I think he also make a fantastic work from accents in Spanish because in fact this is a very funny work that shows intonations from my first language.

This is an excellent video, because is a different form about the explanation of most of the accent in diverse languages in the world. In my personal opinion I like this video because is a funny form to see others accents in English around the world and is interesting because when I travel to other country I can recognize where is the country of this person. Other aspect because this video is interesting is for the reason that when you can identify the special accents in the countries you can acquire fluency and in the conversations with different people.
And in my personal opinion with this ability you can help other people to understand to communicate easily with other person with less knowledge of English.
21 ACCENTS IN SPANISH (COMMENT)
This is a very good video and very funny because is interesting to see the forms to speaks the most of the countries in Latin American people before to see this video I knew some accents of those countries, for example Argentina, Venezuela, Cuba and some accents of Puerto Rico, but this video wide my knowledge about the accents in the Spanish countries. I think this video is a very funny to know different of ways to learn.

21 accents:
We can see with the video that the persons accents are different depending of the people come, it’s very important because we can know how is the personality and the culture of each person, the person can be aggressive or friendly when is going to say hello. And sometimes we can see with what kind of people is easier to begin to speak.
21 accents in Spanish:
Its interesting the person who speaks English can copy different accents that are diverse and unique and also in Spanish. I watched the big enormous different that is a life in the same country but in a different city the accent is very singular, can be fast, sometimes funny and maybe sociable.

This is a nice video, it shows different accents of the world (UK, Ireland, Italy, Germany, Czech Republic, Russia, France, Australia, New Zealand, and around North America). The accent depending of the region and is very important to meet someone in the moment to understand other cultures. Amy Walker shows in this video simply and clearly the different accent, because of this it is easier to learn to recognize it.

This is a funny video, in this video we can see as our languages (Spanish) have different accents but clearly understand what we mean. Because we use very well our language.

Some of them I heard were the same, I liked the one of Italy it was the only one that I recognized, because I don’t know really well the others. It is amazing how that girl can do all those accents, she has a good ability. I think she most know all of them.
21 accents in español:
Different to the 21 accents in English this one, it seems to be like a play or a challenge of the man that wants to imitated the woman of the previous video. He did not have the ability to pronounce all the kinds of accents, and some of them seem to be the same and he neither knew the place in which they speak them. He not even did 21 different accents; some of them have sadly the same.

21 accents in English
Amy Walker shows us a lot of accents, it was fantastic to listen to all those accents and realize where they come from... They sound very real and I had a lot of fun while I was listening to it.
Also with this video I realize how many accents exist in English and it was really interesting to discover it. Amy walker did all the accents very natural.
21 accents in Spanish:
This guy made a lot of accents but most of them were form Puerto Rico. He was very funny because he made a lot of faces while he was talking, but if you compare this video with ‘’21 accents in English ‘’ you realize that Amy walker is more professional doing accents.
You can have more fun watching this video but if you want to learn about the way people talk around the world you should see the first video.
Also I think that the guy of 21 accents in Spanish only made this video to have fun and make other people laugh. He ignored many accents and in some times the accent didn’t sound like the accent of the country for example Mexican accent wasn’t very real.
The accents form Argentina, Uruguay and Chile sounded like if they were the same because he didn’t change the pronunciation and the accent, anyway we couldn’t avoid this guy having good humor.

I think this girl do an excellent job speaking many accents in English. It’s very interesting how she makes a difference between the accents of many countries like Italy, Germany, Australia, etc.
I think not too much people can do this job. It is amazing the abilities of this woman.
21 ACCENTS IN SPANISH
I think this video is not an amazing video. Because this man only try to imitate all the accents in Spanish but he doesn’t do a good job. I think the man doesn’t know too much about the different regions of the real accents. I think it’s not something well elaborated because we can see that he was only improvising.

21 accents.
This video shows me that in English, same like Spanish, are a lot of ways to pronunciation the words, a lot of accents. I didn’t know that in one country can exist a lot of accents, and she shows me that. Really she takes it seriously because she makes the different between all of accents very clearly.
21 accents in Spanish.
21 accents in Spanish is a very funny video. However he makes a good work making the mimic of all of accents that exist in Spanish, more exactly in Puerto Rico, even though he treat to make the mimic of others Latin American countries, like Mexico and Argentina, etc.
I like this video because he makes me laugh, and at the same time makes me realize that in my language exist a lot of different modifications in the way of pronunciation the worlds.

This video is funny, because is interesting see a person that say the same sentence in different way. I think that is important do that, because when you go to other country, maybe because of the accent, the people don´t understand you. For example, if you go to France and you talk in English and this people know English, but don´t understand, you can try to say the same sentence with the accent of this country, and maybe these persons can understand you. Sometimes I didn´t understand the difference of the accents, but was good.
21 ACCENTS IN SPANISH
This video is very interesting, because, sometimes I can´t do that. But is very weird too, because this man imitates excellent some accents, but other no. For example, it was awesome when he imitated an announcer, because is difficult do that for me. But he really didn´t know the differences to some accents of countries. In general was good, but in some cases he exaggerated, however his pronunciation was good.

21 accents:
Is very interesting the ability of this girl, especially when she took in other languages because she know many of this and had the accent of each one, but many of the accents of cities of USA I feel that are similar or I didn’t feel the difference, but generally is good to recognize the different accents even in the same country, like England or USA.
21 accents in Spain:
Is a good intent, he talk in many accents of countries who talk Spanish like Mexico, Puerto Rico, Spain, Chile, Uruguay, Argentina and others, this presentation is very funny specially when he talk like a Boricua ( Person of Puerto Rico) or like a person of Mexico, he talked many times like this and made this very funny.

21 accents:
That was a very entertain video because we can listen the different accents of different parts of the world. I don’t understand someone’s but the majority I understood. We can listen very clear the big difference in the accent in only one country thanks to the big ability of her.
21 accents in Espanol
That video was not very entertain because Carlos Santos is not a good imitator, the majority of the accents that he was imitating were not real, for example the Mexican accent was nothing similar, he cant imitate well because he exagery the someone’s words. And in someone’s parts of the video he made a stupid faces and I don’t like that
Diego Fernando Bedoya B. 11c
“21 accents”, in this video shows a big variety of accents, from different places, from Europe and North America, is amazing how words change their way to be said depending on where they come from, some of this accents make the words hard to be understood by anyone. It’s a great to be able to talk in many accents; it’s a great ability that not everybody has it.
Another video that teachers had presented to us was “21 accents in Spanish”. It’s an imitation of the version in English, but it seems to be like a joke for the one that is trying to make the different accents. Although is a good demonstration of the different ways to speak Spanish from Mexico to Spain, and he make an effort to present a good job, the video shows a variety of idiomatic expressions or slangs that distinct a place or a country.

21 accents
This video was interesting, but really I don’t found the different in some of the accents. Whit this we can see the diversity of accent that exist around the word, that in all of the region the accent change a lot. Something that capture me attention is how this woman can learned or only the way that she reproduced the different accents one after the other.
21 accents in Spanish
This other video is really comic, I think that is like a parody of the original version in English, but… he did all he could do to emitted the other one. After some minutes it becomes a little ridiculous. But it demonstrated the different accents in Puerto Rico because it is his… references for take the accents; he exaggerate a littler be because, is true that there speak similar but not like he said, and is so improvised, whit no preparation.
Santiago Lozano Peña 11-C

The Video It´s shocking because is difficult to learn all diversity of accent. When she speaks also feel different personality of each country. For example France people, was very refined when talk. Each Country has this own cultural position, and because of that the same sentences sounds very different for the accent.
21 Accents in Spanish
In the same country also been differences in the native idiom. It is funny to see the features of each culture. For example Puerto Rico has a heavy accent and many slangs (“que la que hay”, “tu sabes”)This man has a great domain in idioms, because one thing is speak two or more idioms, but imitate the accent of each country is very difficult. I like it

Amy Walker:
With Amy walker we can see the important of improve our English, she show us that is not only to know English, also you must have the capacities to communicate you with another person’s no matter where he from around the world, as you see, in every accents that she show us, she used different slangs and idiomatic expressions that you don´t learn with the normal English.
Carlos Santos:
Most of the video are funny, but sometimes Carlos try to do funny some that aren´t funny, he is a person who dominates very well the both languages (English, Spanish), and he know exactly the characteristics that each Latin American country have on their idiom, beside he did the comparison with some funny that characterize every country. He imitates accents mostly from Puerto Rico.
Martha Salazar 11c
About Amy Walker and her 21 Europe’s and North America’s accents I think that she has a good ability. She really can imitate the accents of people from others countries. This video expresses the diversity of the ways that people have to speak English depending of their nation and also show us that each country has specific languages’ characteristics.
Carlos Santos does a good job imitating not only the accents of different countries of where the Spanish language is spoken. Also he improvises and acts the idiomatic expressions of the different cultures showing us that instead we are Latins we have different ways of communicated or speak our language.

This video is a really good job to show people many of the accents that exists on the entire world, is well explained, talked and dramatized by Amy walker who has a huge ability to make the different accents and who surely has a big knowledge of them and of many languages too. She also shows that when the people talk, depending of the country or city they came from, they have different expressions and attitudes on their speech even on the same country like United States, are different forms of accents.
21 accents en español:
Although this video is a funny version of the serious one, it also shows many accents in a comic way and the way of express of many people too, so we can see how people on countries like Puerto Rico, modified the words or shortens them for talking too fast, that’s why many times is really hard to understand the accent of another side of the world or even on your own country. It is really hilarious!

I like this video, in my opinion the voice of the woman was reflected the different way, or form to say something of the different countries and estates. I like, because it a very real accent of the world.

This video was very funny, because the man was reflected in a good and a real accent of Latin America or the countries when talk Spanish, unlike, he was very comic and a little ridiculous person. In my opinion this video is the better than other videos.

I think that Amy walker has a great ability to make different accents in a correct way.
I think that the video is very good, the way that she changes her voice and accent let us know that in the world many countries have diffent slangs and accents to communicate.
Also you can see that accent depends of the place where you're living.
ACCENTS:
I think that the video isn't good enough. The man is joking with the diffent Latin accents and it is the opposite of Amy Walker. The sound is very bad so I couldn't understand very well what he was trying to say.

The world is very extensive, the diversity is present in all the things that the human created to survive in this planet, the idiom is an example for this , in all the countries ,cities and towns the people have different accents , depending of the idiom, the culture and the story, we can find accents with different intonation ,like in London , Belfast, Brooklyn,Texas and others. Thank you Amy Walker by you excellent job.

Finally I found where to comment, i thought it was in the blog, didnt realize it was in the video's link.
Anyways, in the Amy's Walker video we could see how most of the people's english differences are based on the accent, fluency, but not on pronunciation. She did a great job, grabbing accents from all around the world, letting notice the influece of each region (europe, america)
About the second video, btw, he doesnt look like me. He did the accents while using a lot of facial expressions in order to make it funny.
