Loooool, i thought all the time that England is England and not a Island with different "Countrys" inside of it.Again i learned something now lol.But its annoying i swear XD.
In the first Video the Guy speaked fast, anyway i still understanded him a little bit (Because i dont understand everything if people TALK).
The Second Video was alot better.I Understanded much more.
1.What/where is East Angelia ? it was really good to understand for me (Btw: I like the 80s, and 70s, etc. i like the Old Times more)
2.So is Scottish the same Language like English ? So Scotland and England say and all other Countrys inside the Britain Island say Colour ?
3.By the way: My Family is from Persia, i dont speak Persia/Farsi. Is Ireland not Iran/Persia/Farsi ? (I dont know why but people in Persia say to Persia Iran AND Persia.Theres no Different.and "Farsi" is theyr Language) Ireland sounds like Iran xD.
The first should have had captions/subtitles.
East Anglia is odd. It is on the east and what makes it up varies a bit between the person you are speaking to. The counties of Suffolk and Norfolk are definitely in, others will also include parts of Essex and Cambridgeshire. Technically counties are separate administrative regions, not unlike states in Germany, however the amount of overlap between those ones with police and healthcare and more besides is quite large these days.
The name comes from older terms for England, something which you can still see in the French word for the place, Angleterre (land of the Angles) and the word for the English language language (Anglais).
Surprising that you understood the second one more. I lived around there for many years and still spend lots of time there, I struggle to understand some of the people talking there and it is not uncommon to find older people still speaking that way.
2. Everywhere you go in the UK, be it England, parts of it, Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland, the various islands surrounding this part of the world, or/as well as Ireland/Eire/Republic of Ireland then basically everybody speaks English as a first language. It might be with a serious accent but it will be English, and they will understand it if you speak it to them. There are however secondary languages and tweaks, some of them held in high esteem within the countries that make up the UK, and it may be that if you wander in a pub in one of those that you will find people speaking it and Irish is an official government language within Ireland/Eire/Republic of Ireland. On pubs it is occasionally the basis of a funny joke where most people will be speaking English but if an actual English person wanders in then watch the language change.
On Scottish then most people there speak English, albeit with what most in the UK consider a recognisable accent but in the US it seems to get confused for Irish often enough, there are however two extra things
1) The Scots language. I find it pretty intelligible as an English speaker but there are serious differences at times.
2) A Scottish Gaelic language, straight up Celtic based language and not mutually intelligible at all if you only know English.
3. Ireland... that is a whole can of worms there. Probably should find another video to cover it but I will go text.
Short version is it was not invaded by the Romans and was a separate country throughout all that, it later played an important role within the reformation of the Christian church in Europe, much later in history the UK was doing the whole empire thing and thought "ah, it is right next door". A bunch of people were continually shipped into Northern Ireland as well. Anyway after that there was not a great relationship (lots of choices but most start with the potato famine, others might go straight for Oliver Cromwell -- to this day something of a reviled figure in Ireland, if he is reviled in the UK it is for nothing he did there) and definitely something of an independent identity retained, around world war 1 the south portion formed a separate country which it is to this day (money, laws, government, army... all different), though it does have stronger ties to the UK than much of the rest of Europe. The northern part is still a country within the UK (recall the people being shipped there, it was over hundreds of years starting many hundreds of years before), this is a sore point for some in both the republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland and led to what was delightfully known as "the troubles" (among the political things there were also people shooting at each other and police* to try to join Ireland or remain in the UK, bombs going off in the mainland UK and more besides). Said troubles are supposed to have ended with the good Friday agreement in 1998 but there are still some unhappy with things and it is not all sunshine and rainbows.
*said police also being more a military unit at times, and not a pinnacle of policing either. Oh and actual military deployments there.
