The American learned about phrases such as “You alright?”, “taps aff”, “hen night”, “stag do”, “gaff”, “hunners”.
He also had some lentil soup, which he described as “pure dead brilliant”.
The YouTuber told locals: “It’s like you’re speaking a different language.
“I really wanted to come here because I just feel like the language is so distinct and interesting. It’s fascinating.
“I need live captioning to what you’re saying.”
Finally, the tourists tried Buckfast and a deep fried Mars bar.
