The city of Glasgow in Scotland has often been called the city with the hardest English accent to understand in the world—even for native speakers. With unique pronunciation, intonation, and even vocabulary, when spoken by locals it can almost sound like a separate language, even though they're native English speakers!

So I went to Glasgow to try to understand and learn this crazy dialect, and when I started speaking it back to locals, their reactions were priceless.

5:52 Strangers are shocked that I know their language
6:58 "I don't know what you're f***ing saying"
8:56 He offers me more drinks
10:47 Strangers teach me slang on the street
12:08 Trying a deep-fried Mars bar
13:15 An unintelligible conversation
14:18 "I want to take him home with me!"
