The Accents Thread

My Mrs is from Derry. She says the Galway accent is the sexiest.

Everyone thinks they have the prettiest wife at home

Dublin/Kilkenny/Waterford/Offaly/ W.Meath/Laois/Carlow Wexford/Tipp - Actually the whole of Leinster and Tipp/Waterford/Cavan are the worst on the Island by far… A real inner City Belfast accent is scuttery also.

Derry/ Donegal probably the best

Proper order. The kid pronounced it perfectly. Up the balbec.

And i would probably be able to listen to your missus for hours. Derry accent on women can be unbelievable

Not when she’s shouting at you.

South Dublin posh is great on a good looking woman. Girl behind me in a queue for ATM once had the most over the top south Dublin accent. Was magnificent. When I turned around she looked as good as she sounded.

I think it’s the worst of the lot.

Louth is undoubtedly the worst

A real Belfast accent has to be accompanied by a machine gun laugh. The best practitioners of this are 55 year-old black taxi drivers*.

Sean McGuinness has a tremendous Belfast accent.

Cork is by far and away the worst accent, its sort of effeminate, whiney uneducated sounding

In fairness TUM called the loss of accents years ago and was derided.

Accents are what make us interesting – it’s a shame Irish kids are losing theirs’

Blind boy will probably lose his shit when he hears this
