hey guys!!! Im from Chile and I teach English, can you tell me which accent you think is the best or the standard?? For Spanish language, the Colombian accent is considered the best because every word is easily understood, does that happen with any English accent???
A middle class Irish accent is very easy to understand. We say 'car' instead of 'cahh', which is a big problem with middle class England accents for foreign learners. We pronounce every letter, speaking with an even rhythm.
Watching this video made me realize how some of these pronunciations are exactly the same as a Southern accent in the United States. I say "st-ahp" instead of "stop," so does my whole family. It was a weird aha moment but it adds up with migration in the states historically too. Makes more sense why some people in France & the Netherlands thought we were Irish 😅.
I'm Aussie, and back on a few of the fleets my ancestors came from across great Britain. One was a young girl escaping the potato famine. And I've always loved Ireland and wanted to travel there, I want to learn the accent well ☺
Hey Itz Ethan , Same!!! I'm part Irish but live in Texas.. so I sound nothing like an Irish person😞 and I also want to impress my friends with my new accent
Well his attempt is rubbish .The thing is they are 32 counties in ireland each has several accents.The trick is to pick a particular accent be it dublin cork donegal cavan.Search for niall tobin he is particularly good at regional accents
No you can't this is rubbish.Besides how can you blow him away with your british accent when you with an irish accen like using a french accent for a german one that makes no sense.What this guy is doing is he is mixing three or 4 different accents together in otherwords it doesnt exist. 54th
@@TheDoctorOfGalifrey209 i haven’t watched it form the very beginning, but i’ve been watching it for a couple months now. but yes, i have seen that video
Hardest accent in the world? That’s an understatement. I’ve gotten Russian, Albanian, Nigerian, Bostonian, Northern Alabama, and Norwegian down pact, Irish is tough, comes out more Scottish.
Yes! I can do Scottish but not Irish, but every now and then I manage to get it and my ability to do a Scottish one has disappeared never to be found again!
yes, Irish accent is so hot, anyway do you realise guys, the main thing that makes an accent is not the separate sounds but the intonation of the sentences? All tutorial catch the accent from the wrong end.
(Read this in an Irish accent) Back in my homeland, it was my own family who discovered the hardiest breed of potatoes in all of Ireland. Through harshest winters, and dryest of summers, people sailed far and wide to learn the methods! But all those foreigners were fruitless, or, potato-less, might I say! Our land was built atop the bloodshed, running deep in the roots of the grass. Ye better believe, that no new potato was ever greater, than she.
Im a theatre student and working on a play where I need to speak in an Irish (Dublin) accent. Tutorials are helpful but challenging when stringing sentences together. I want to do right by the accent and don't offend or look foolish when performing. Can anyone who is from Ireland help me, recording lines for me that comes out of the play? Thank you for your time.
You can definitely trace the American southern dialect from a combo of Irish and African / African American. Those AS and hard Rs you can hear in as far as the Midwest. I’m trying to get into voice acting. I’ve got my RP, Midwest, Florida Southern (my hometown is Tampa} and Cajun down. Cajun is hard because there’s a downtown and uptown dialect. You can hear it when you’re in Slidell. Which’s 20 mins outside NOLA . Thank god I lived there cuz it’s basically a French/Canadian/Southern accent in one. I’d love to see you do a video on the Cajun \ creole accent, but don’t get the two confused. Cajun is Bayou. Creole is city. Thank you again if you read this far!
Love these, please do Australian next! I always thought the Australian accent primarily took after the British accent but I just watched your American accent video and we seem to pronounce a lot of things in an American way.
esclave hey I'm Australian have you ever heard those tails we always say g'day or mate or crickey or things like that well it's actully not true we don't say flip flops we say thongs and we tend to shorten every world like mornin or sarvey but our accent is quite simple just keep your rounded in the middle of your mouth I know it sounds weird but that's how we talk
@@katesmith9197 Speak for yourself! I always say "g'day mate" when I meet someone, especially at the pub.. a lot of people I know call them flip flops too.. it's just who you're hangin' out with that don't! lol :D
@@TheHagggis I'm American, and when I was a kid, we said "thongs" for the shoes... but that quickly changed once the dental floss underwear (😂) came out, then, not to confuse the 2, we started referring to the shoes as "flip flops" Ha..
I thought the "ar" was more stressed, and sounded more like a pirate. I only notice this cause it's a trademark Irish thing. I haven't heard any other English speaking language do this.
Great vid, but if I pause after you have said the sentence the film has already moved onto the next sentence so i cant read it. Thought Id mention it for the next movie. Thanks for the vid very helpful x
There's this guy in the Peaky Blinders who plays as the leader of the Billy Boys (season 5), and to my ears, he pronounces any word such as MINE like MAIN. Maybe am wrong but words appear to get a slant towards EH/UH sound in general in the Irish accent, or perhaps in that particular accent (he's from the north of Ireland). Any thoughts?
I was born in Ireland and moving back there from Australia but thanks for helping me because I moved to Australia when I was two but now I'm 13 and moving back to Ireland lol. Also this really helped
Does anyone have a tutorial on how to pronounce the letter "t" at the end of words? Like "but" or "cat", I adore the way it sounds, but I can't find any tutorials on how to pronounce it :(
I'll make it easy for you! Instead of trying to make it a 'T' sound first, try replacing it with a sudden 'J' instead when it's at the start or middle of a word E.g. "Timid = Jimid" "Started = Starjed" This will help you get the feeling down. The key is to get the tip of your tongue as close as you can to the roof of your mouth without touching, and when you push air through, it should make a soft quiet whistling type of noise. I hope this helped!
It's not bad but it's not great either you got the words right, but most specifically the I sound didn't go for me, that would be more for the Dublin area from my experience speaking with Dubs anyways lol but the rest isn't bad.
I'm watching that now and it's great, I love the Irish accents. How did you learn it from it, I have been trying to learn it and im getting better, any tips?
@@joewoodason7374 Yeah, any moment you can, just try to mimic the accent. To yourself, aloud. Make sure when you think of an Irish accent you can clearly hear how every syllable is pronounced, that means you can mimic it!

Great video thank you
I love the English accents, Scottish accents and Irish accents. 🏴🏴🇮🇪🥰
this was the best one so far for me.
In Bruges with Colin farrell, and brendan Gleeson gives you a traditional bleeding Dublin accent ''
Opened this video and thought: finally an actual irish person to teach me
Good general accent but, there's a wide variation for each of the 32 counties and even further variations in accents within counties.
One of the better attempts. I just wish people would realise there about about 30 different accents here.
I thought the "ar" was more stressed, and sounded more like a pirate.
I only notice this cause it's a trademark Irish thing. I haven't heard any other English speaking language do this.
People are at their most piratical in the West Country (South West England), though Ireland is a close second.
I'm Aussie and I'm practising to do an Irish, Scottish and South African accents. I think Scottish is the hardest for me.
I especially love it when Irish people pronounce THs as a hard T sound. So 33 is pronounced "turtie tree"

Holy shit, you're magic. It worked
