    Not sure which is the best but accents from the Northern parts of this Island are the worst I think - be it Donegal or Antrim, Monaghan or Tyrone it doesnt really matter. Nothing againt the people though.

    This thread is crying out for a poll.

    Dublin accents are so natural to my ears I'm not conscious of them so my vote is split between Donegal and Derry.

    I recently discovered my accent is the best. Really quite sexy. At a work thing, had to watch and listen to myself on video. It was an eye opening experience.

    A nice, distinct yet soft non-regional accent with excellent diction and a sexy gravelly undertone. Hmmmm Hmmmmm

    I really like northern accents, especially Donegal, it sounds really soft. Love the Cork accent for sounding indignant. I really hate inner city dublin accents, variations of which can be heard in some Dublin suburbs too.

    +1

    Have to say the ''howiya's'' accents , as they're known , don't really entertain me in the sense of do i like them or not, i just think they are plain daft , however, there are some which are tolerable i.e. people who actually want to hold an intellectual conversation with you and do not wish to ''hijack yer micra'' and ''go on a mad one yerrroowww'' etc etc.

    on the other hand no matter how much grief they recieve from it , D4 and other southside coastline accents are the best in dublin imho.

    donegal accents FTW.:cool:

    Dont know how anyone can like the Dery accent "Whata bout ye mucker,haigh?"

    It would go through ya:mad:

    Donegal is the best,but I might be a bit biased with that view:pac:
