Passion toward Liverpool FC
it should be a religon ..
I think it's nice to feel part of such an individual city that has a very strong sense of it's own identity. The accent is very distinct and it does unite us.
hopefully big

I donT Knoww woT thaa Meanss
i beleive it brings us all togther and makes people proud to live in liverpool
Everyone knows a scouser and
you can recognise the accent
in an instant.
cilla black

from
Scouse Is Sound
Different regions of England
al have their own regional
identities, for example
London, Birmingham and
Manchester. I'd say that
scousers are very proud of
their identity, there is a
sayin in Liverpool "We're
not English we are scouse"
and I think this shows that
scousers see themselves as
having a different identity
to the rest of England.
There are people who would
say that Liverpool is a
dangerous place and who look
down on people from
Liverpool, I would say this
is maybe why scousers see
themselves as having a
strong identity apart from
the rest of England. I hope
this helps.x
I love being a scoucer but
some scouses I don't like
being associated with, that I
am sure happens with all
areas and cities. We get a
bad press
The "Scouse language" is the
most obvious way of showing
where your from. However, I
don't personally use that much
actual Scouse words. The
accent is what I've got. I've
been away and lived with
different people from the UK
and now I'm in Korea, people
from all over the world.
However, no matter where I've
been, people can tell I'm from
a little part of a little
country. People know my city,
and that's something to be
damn proud of!
important!
cuz we hav conversations and
people will be like wa ??
and they cnt understand us
sumtimes
Easily recognisable because of
tv use and the famous football
club and beatles world wide.
Liverpool is a very
cosmopolitan city, but it is
particularly strongly
influenced by it's Irish
links, especially in the
accent. I've even heard
people utter the phrase "We
are not English. We are
Scouse." That's a fair
reflection of the way some
people think, but I wouldn't
go that far, personally.
Unfortunately as i mentioned
early, a lot of other regions
think scousers are bad
people "scum". I just like
to think we are up front,
speak are minds rather than
hold back, sometimes that
has backfired on Liverpool
in the past! We are a proud
region, with are heritage
and social communities and
moral believes.We stick
together! I'm proud to be a
scouser! Thanks, and good
luck with your coarse!
Liverpool before England
Well, where ever you are in the
world people know the scouse
accent and know you are from
Liverpool Uk.
Scouseland is amazing!
It's very good
you can tell instantly that
someone is from liverpool no
matter were in the world u
are from
Scouse in unique
people from liverpool are
proud of that fact although it
may have other ppl and their
adverse opinons against them 4 it
ok lar sound
i think that as a regional
identity it is unique in
england. many people from
abroad dont realise that we
are english from our accents.
im very proud to be scouse
because it will always give me
an identity where ever i am in
the world
It is good as you can create
conversation and people look
at you as more creative and
women consider you more of a
lads lad and fun.
love it, liverpool is whaer
we come from and scouse is
what we are
scouse accent is strongly
identifiable. depending on
which area of liverpool you
come from it can range from
slight accent to strong accent
Underestimated, misunderstood
Liverpool has a strong sense
of community and the Scouse
accent is almost like a
passport to be accepted as
part of that community
wherever you are in the
world. It is unique and
quite distinct from all
other accents - if I was in
a bar in Sydney, New York,
Bankok and I heard a scouse
accent across the room, I
would feel quite welcome (if
inclined) to introduce
myself and be recognised and
accepted as one of the
scouse family.
it defines us as... a
group.it's ours and hard for
others to copy properly
Haaa Boss
it is an extremely important
sign and therefore needs to
be retained
We're not English, we are
Scouse
great
i think most scousers are
proud to be scouse and would
be happy to be known
as 'scouse' instead
of 'english' etc. scousers
are mainly laid back and
generally nice, fun
people. 'scousers have more
fun!' i think many scousers
are proud of their accent
and where they come from and
will not try to change to
fit the situation. take us
as you find us :P
perfection
I think it stands out. And
we get stupid sterio types
tagged onto us but it isn't
true for us all, we have a
name for them types, scallys.
our accent identifies the
region we are from as
surrounding area's are not
as broad. I hope this has
been helpful to you. good
luck.
its brilliant
Im proud of my region and
would never disguise my voice
to avoid being labeled.
scouse is the best accent
and liverpool is the best
place to live, i could dream
of living newer eles
every area has a regional
identity and it is unfair to
stereotype
liverbird
I find that people often
have a stereotype in their
head about Liverpool. They
try and copy the accent,
make jokes about stolen cars
and generally take the
micky. But it's ok because
us Scousers have a good
sense of humour and we can
take it and then give it
back!
I think the accent is know all
around the world to be honest
and it is almost like a
regional identity. I'm not
sure it is liked everywhere
though because of the simple
minded stereo typists
In my opinion, I think
Liverpool/scouse people are
the most individual people
on the planet(not being
biased), just through how
uniwue and diverse such a
small place can seem so big
I'm happy to be one!
Scousers Rock End Of!
proud, funny, honest, and
loyal! but like any other
city it has a percentage
of "Scallys" (peopel who let
everyone down and will only
care for themselfs!)
cos of the history!
i am instantly recognised as
a scouser everywhere i go in
great britain,but people
have identified my accent in
spain and america
