there were a huge amount of irish bond servants (borderline slaves but not quite) shipped off to the caribbean in the 1600s so perhaps that still influences the jamaican accent today

This is a west Cork accent. Various regional accents like this used to be a lot more common but most young people now have (or have been influenced by) the new 'Supraregional' accents.

Loved these two rowers.... Sorry , but I did catch every third word they spoke.😊😊😊.I loved them even more when they were on the Graham Norton show.!!! SO glad you won Silver at the Olympics.
I'm here from a reference on an article.about how Jamaicans gained Irish surnames. As a Canadian born to two Jamaican born parents it's wierd and funny how fluent they sound to me. I guess being used to Jamaican accent helps. I hear the similarity but I always thought parts of britiain has some similiar sounding accents to Jamaicans. Were all one human race ppl. Your geography of your birth place means more then your skin tone. Thank about that. Two Koreans can have a baby born in Cuba and and and a thick Cuban accent depending on sheltered he/she is or isn't.
Thousands of rish were sent as slaves to the West Indies. That's where the similar accents comes from. I've heard Jamaican accents that I swore were from Cork.
It's just like two lads randomly rocked up one day to give rowing a try and realised they were good at it, so decided to stay.

+Hawkeye Airwolf me too... lovely accents tho!!
After that Interview to RTÉ the Irish Broadcasting company they finished with a phrase translated to English from Irish which reads "our day will come", the two lads were then interviewed by the BBC. As they were going on air they then said " it's the BBC, we better be careful what we say here" pure and utter class. Say what you like on Irish TV. But tread carefully about what you say for the mother BEEB.
Good to see Merry and Pipin are doing well
"They've no Kerr Pinks though"🤣🤣🤣
Interviewer : seriously now lads
Lads: ......
Pure class. what it really means to be Irish.
I swear the guy on the left is an undercover Jamaican
Great lads. Taking the piss out of the po faced sports interview we all know and yawn over. "What does it mean to you"? How do you feel" etc. BS questions with formulaic answers. These lads know its only pulling a boat through water take the piss and they are great.
Very well said!
Fair play fellas.. Always be yourselves.. Frm dubliner.
I'm enjoying this interview a LOT for somebody who can't understand most of it...

Wtf TH-cam algorithm??? What in my search history made you decide this was what I want to watch? I'm German and the most Irish TH-cam I've watched is jacksepticeye o.O
I mean, I'm not complaining, love the accent, but I have no clue what they're saying!
I guess they had Germans on their agenda🤣 Im also German with no clue why this is in my recommendations
@@sokyoul it's a conspiracy to get more Germans to Ireland 😱
Lol german here wanting to move to london... well i think TH-cam has other plans for me😂
Turn on the captions.
@@sokyoul Keine sorge Kumpelchen. Mann kann es trotzdem geniessen,und seine fremdesprache kenntnis verbessern.

This tops Andy Townsend's interview at the 94 WC, when he said of his new bleached coif that he'd asked for a Valderama and been given a Val Doonican.

Loved these two rowers.... Sorry , but I did catch every third word they spoke.😊😊😊.I loved them even more when they were on the Graham Norton show.!!! SO glad you won Silver at the Olympics.
Paul O'Donovan, the brown haired one, just won the gold in Tokyo so🥳
Q. whats your strategy?
A. Go from A to B as fast as we can!
I absolutely love the Irish and the accent, I'm american but I have Irish blood and an Irish name. Absolutley love Ireland
What's ur name
@@Kieran66 Shannon!
Cork people rock. Loved the city when I visited a couple of years ago.
They're from the County.
“Talk to me seriously, almost, for a moment” 😆 please don’t. Carry on as you are
0:52 "just go as fast as you can"
I do not have clue as to what they're saying , but... I love it
definitely I hear the influence of language onto jamaica..interesting
Steaks and spuds for breakfast, lynch and dinner)))
I'm here from a reference on an article.about how Jamaicans gained Irish surnames. As a Canadian born to two Jamaican born parents it's wierd and funny how fluent they sound to me. I guess being used to Jamaican accent helps. I hear the similarity but I always thought parts of britiain has some similiar sounding accents to Jamaicans. Were all one human race ppl. Your geography of your birth place means more then your skin tone. Thank about that. Two Koreans can have a baby born in Cuba and and and a thick Cuban accent depending on sheltered he/she is or isn't.
Iam Dunem i had a West Indian work colleague asking me about their accents. He recognized something familiar about their accents.
Thousands of rish were sent as slaves to the West Indies. That's where the similar accents comes from. I've heard Jamaican accents that I swore were from Cork.
