Jesus everyone hates the Dublin accent!!!

You always get a load of culchies in these threads with chips on their shoulders about Dublin. Sniping at their betters is all they have really...

Mr. Rager

Best: Galway City
Worst: Drogheda

humbert

Best: Slightly, but not excessively, posh English accent.
Worst: The Dublin accent of people inclined to say, "I done".

I like the Dublin accent so long as its not the Lotty Ryan type accent or the real skanger accent. When they speak clearly and pronounce their words fully its a nice accent.

Don't like nasally Dub accent or the D4 accent.

I got contracted to work with an employer based in West Cork. Had to work alongside two New Zealand girls. Every time they talked the high pitched ending of sentences made everything sound like a question. Was near suicidal after two days. The local West Cork lilt was like a tonic after a days work.

Seen a YouTube video with a female chef from Nee Zuland. She looked lum with pututoes and frish munt. Very annoying.

Dislike anything English unless its very very soft.

Love the Derry accent.

Princess Peach

Favourite, Australian for sure rrraaaaawwwrrr

Least favourite, Newfoundland, where I live now. Gonna murder a housemate soon.

Defiler Of The Coffin

Whichever type of Kildare accent Christy Moore has FTW.

Least favourite is the Belfast accent, I find it impossible to decipher over the phone

Fav: A slight Aussie twang, not the "Throw a shrimp on the baaaabie and bring me another VB, Sheila" sort, is fantastic.

Hate: Cork. Painful to listen to for any period of time, especially on women :mad:

Not a fan of the Kiwi or hardcore Nordi ones either.

I hate New Jersey and most New York accents.

I strongly prefer the dulcet tone of the midwestern American accent. :cool:

Best: Love the sound of a girl with an Australian accent. Think the girl who sometimes does the Movies & Booze on Newstalk. Close second would be a girl with the soft South African accent.

Worst: Man with that high pitched male Dublin city accent. Makes you instinctively put your hand on your wallet and your back to a wall. Close second would be the Limerick version.

When people say Northside & Southside accents what are they talking about? Do people from Clontarf, Sutton, Glasnevin, Griffith Ave, Raheny, Howth & Malahide north of the Liffey sound like their fellow Dubliners from Dolphins Barn, Rialto, Crumlin, Ballybrack, Tallaght & Ballyfermot south of the Liffey?

Generally people who say "northside accent" are actually from outside the county and don't have a clue.

clappyhappy

Love love love the Scottish accent.

smurgen

the icelandic accent when they're speaking english - sweet jesus it's hypnotic!I could listen to it all day.If you want an idea listen to Bjork giving an interview.The worst then is the D4 accent,or it's less well off cousin the C4 accent which comes from the posher parts of Cork. As a man from the Hollyhill/Knocknaheey side of Cork this sounds like nails been dragged across a chalkboard.

cavan4sam

love the northern accent and the soft galway accent ie. seoige sisters

hate the monaghan accent

ruthloss

I dislike the D.4 accent., "Fionn has a brill job in Markashing"

and Marianne Finnucane ("it has to be said"):rolleyes:

Balmed Out

the very strong / harsh
Cork / kerry / limerick / northern irish / scottish and scouse

There's so much diversity and variations in the Dublin accent for one city .

I'm not to fussy on the Birmingham , Bradford ,Burnley and all the other similar (woolyback) type accents from Lancashire but most other English accents are ok by me .
