    Common courtesy isn't taught these days. Simple warm greetings whether in person, or on the phone, like "Good afternoon", etc. Simple "Thank you" and "Please". Courteous responses to questions, while looking at people in the eye. Opening the door, ESPECIALLY for ladies, and elderly people! It's all about proper upbringing, and breeding. Sadly, these things are minimized in homes, and in school.

    you cannot really ask for a "best price" in every shop but some shops will tell you they will match the price of competitors so if you lookup online what it costs in any other irish retailer then you can go to your nearest shop and say..."listen, this item costs this and that in shop xy, can you match that?". if you're lucky they will sell it even cheaper than it costs in the other shop.

    Interesting to here someone's view from outside Ireland. It is common to be honest and straight forward when you become close friends. An Irish joke is that you can tell the friends in going away party as they are the ones who are saying "I hope they never come back". Where I come from being honest and straight forward is for those you trust and know. It is a weird custom. But once an Irish person starts missing with you are being honest you know you are friends 😂.

You say people don't look after there houses not the entire population there is some.

      Leon Erin Irish people _are_ sensitive. By the same token we are, in general, particularly good at diplomacy. Diplomacy is a virtue that requires a natural sensitivity.
      There is a fine line between uttering objective critical thinking and being downright offensive. I've known some spectacularly rude people who tried to excuse their behaviour by claiming "I'm just telling the unvarnished truth" as if somehow that's always a virtue. It's not.
      There's a time for the unvarnished truth, a time for diplomatic truth, a time for keeping the truth to yourself ... and, in Ireland, a time for flinging the truth around in a good slagging session. This has nothing to do with wokeness. It has to do with knowing how to strike the right balance.
      Sensitivity is not a characteristic I think Ireland should lose. There's enough blunt speaking around the world. You'll find it in every trouble spot and warzone. We don't need to add to it. So, long live Irish sensitivity! 😁😁😁🇮🇪

      Leon Erin I'm 100% in favour of the art of slagging. It's a great traditional Irish bonding method. There should be no place for gratuitous rudeness and no place for political correctness either. The middle road is always the best route.
      I repeat, I was not criticising Ana-Maria.
      Yes, Irish people always worry about how they are perceived abroad and so they should. That perception is our brand and we trade on our brand. If Irish football fans go around the world serenading foreign police women or changing tyres for elderly drivers and the following week there are two butters on the shelf in, say, France - one Irish Kerrygold and the other also a foreign import - which one do you think the French shopper will choose? Image _is_ important.
      There's a big difference between critical thinking and just whining like teenagers about everything or washing our dirty linen in public. If you keep announcing to the world that you're a piece of crap eventually the world will believe you ... and it _won't_ admire you for your critical thinking!

    • @Clodaghbob

      Leon Erin Picking up rubbish for the cameras is cringeworthy? So what. It worked. What I find really old and tiresome is people choosing to be angry all of the time; believing that they are in a position to criticise others because they think they are superior all of the time; and - most irritating of all - whining all of the time. The bulk of the world's population live tough lives and have to deal with really serious issues, none of which include feelings about cringeworthiness.

    Good advice: if you immigrate to a different country it is a common curtesy to get to know it’s history and culture - this is the reference to your point about giving yourself more time to adapt . If you spent some time on studying the culture and history of Ireland before coming you will feel that you adapt better and quicker. This is also to do with the point you mentioned about people being insulted that you call Northern Ireland UK...the knowledge of culture and history would have helped you understand why...you said that you like studying and you spend a lot of time studying different things...it’s a shame you chose not to study about Ireland before going there...

    I didn’t know you could ask for best price in a shop... and I’m Irish 😂
    In Ireland if an Irish person visits your house you should ask them would they like a drink usually a cup of tea or coffee. If they say no you should ask them again and even then you should ask “are you sure?” - it’s just polite.
    =So you ask a person three times do they want a drink.=
    The reason for this is because you should make a person feel welcome in your home; and that you would treat anyone who comes to your home well. If you don’t it looks like you don’t want them to be in your house even if they are just visiting briefly; and that your not a nice person so we’ll stay away from you.
    Irish people find it very hard to tell you if your English is not perfect - this is because we are Irish and our language is not originally English so we feel we shouldn’t tell you how to speak it.
    Also English find it hard to understand Irish peoples way of speaking English... Irish people speak English but we think in Irish.
    You should insist that an Irish person tells you if you are speaking wrong. Usually older people will find it too hard to tell you your not speaking English correctly because they would feel bad or snobby or arrogant for correcting you.
    A lot of these unique Irish cultural ways are all because of Irish history and how we were treated by British. We would never like to treat another country in that way so we are extra nice to non-Irish.

      The English forced Irish to speak English but the Irish way of thinking is still alive. Speak English in Ireland and we will have a 100 different ways of saying the same thing in English. “Fuck you” can also mean hello in Irish. However they all depend on the context you say these in and when to say it. “Go away” can also mean continue what your saying. An English person wouldn’t understand this.
      Dia dhuit is the Irish for hello and means God be with you - however Irish language is ancient and it’s probable we said may God smile upon you or something.
      Slainte also means hello or health to you.
      Irish humour is a classic example of Irish thinking.

    Hey Ana-Maria. I hope you dont mind but i would like to just give my opinion on the Irish been sensitive.😂🤷🏼‍♂️I honestly taught this was a skit title. I grew up in Ireland, moving to America at 20 to follow my dream of breeding horses in the American Midwest. (Yep, it came to pass but Catholic roulette gave us more PERFECT kids than perfect full bred Friesians🤣)Anyway, the level of sensitivity i found while driving all over Europe as a teen, from Uk, FR, Spain, Portugal, Germany, & all the eastern member states was next to none, from 96 - 00. Ireland today is at the level i found then, even in America. You said this is based on comments online, that ppl dnt have the balls to say it in public. 1st, may i suggest that trolls will argue bout that the world is flat, so nothing new here. 2nd, may i suggest that ppl in Ireland, this tiny Island don’t see you & think, “Oh look, its the lady from the internet. Lets confront her.” And this is for 2 reasons, they dont know u & we respect privacy in Ireland so ppl wont just roll up on ye for pointing out what you dont like🤦🏻‍♂️, but the main reason is that those small few sensitive ppl are typical of any city, country in the free world. Ana, after 2 years & 400K views, you got 2000+ comments & most are very respectfully disagreeing with almost all of what you said (Ireland is not Dublin) but they do it in the most respectful manner. Is it possible that you’re wrong? Let’s ask some other visitors like you: th-cam.com/video/pssNEDh0p5g/w-d-xo.html The only thing i disagree with is how he interprets what we dont like about America. We love the freedoms of states like TX & my homestate, Oklahoma, but we do not like how some presidents & congress men/women will call out our little island for “Global warming” while not mentioning places like China. And when the president did point this out 4 yrs ago, he was called racist. Am i wrong to say this makes no sense? Anyway, you’ll see what i mean. Enjoy Americans in Dublin🇮🇪🇺🇸🇺🇦👌🤠🔱🙏

I think my mom knew what I was up to. We don’t usually bargain in stores here. But I have tried it in a give an impression that’s what I want imply it don’t say it kinda way and once in a great while it works out and I get offered a cheaper price but it’s rare I’m not inspired to imply anything about the price most of the time

The only hope for me is stem cell therapy. Because of the eye disease,I'm completely blind in my right eye and what sight I have remaining in my left eye is like looking through a straw. Here in the u.s. there is no cure or treatment for at least 5-10 years from now. By then,I know it'll be too late for me. That's why I'm trying my best to find help. I feel in my heart that some where our there, there is help for me. But where is the big question. Finding help is so hard when you have no help or a clue where to look for help. If you know of any help, please let me know. THANK you and God bless you.🙏

    In Irish culture, having good manners, such a using please, and thank you shows that you are educated in the broadest sense, and respectful of others. Having lived in several Eastern European countries, words such as thank you, are often used minimally and if over used, can give the impression you are not sophisticated, which is the complete opposite to Irish culture. So having manners in Ireland shows sophistication, and where they are lacking can show some level of crudeness and a lack of respect for others. For this reason, for the Irish living in Eastern Europe, the difference can take some getting used to. Neither is wrong. They are just different.

    @spencerburke 3 ปีที่แล้ว +12

    Interesting video overall. But it isn't really a case of people in Ireland being sensitive or oversensitive. It is just that it can seem this way. Having basic consideration for others is the social norm in most societies. Nothing special really.
    However, in most places in the former Soviet Union, the situation is very different. Society was atomised by decades of corrupt misrule, the erosion of tradition, and the eradication of large swathes of the population. The result is that even today, three decades after the collapse of the USSR, social fabric remains torn. People in general do not care about anyone else, and the state certainly doesn't. In many ways, this is a survival mechanism. Understandable.
    But the thuggish and downright cretinish behaviour that is the norm there shouldn't be used as a measure of society outside. Life in Moldova, the Ukraine and Russia is severely warped. Not so in Ireland or most places in Western Europe. And the curt attitude and abysmal lack of consideration for others, even for strangers on the street, will not go down well at all with Irish people. Some may criticise you for such behaviour. But do not mistake that for being sensitive. It isn't.

    A lot of people regard the partition of ireland as a national tragedy and probably more nowadays just accept as the way it is ,so it is probably better not to mention that a part of the island is in the UK if don't have to,but the fact is that northern ireland is in the UK and so what you really need to avoid well not you really at this stage ,tourists and immigrants coming to ireland is saying that the republic in the UK which is incorrect and it really annoys us.
