      General American accent did not just appear out of nowhere. Look at a rhotic map of the UK, you will see that the UK had a majority of rhotic areas at one time. It's crazy to assume that most of america just developed this accent out of nowhere and the Americans just "lost" their british accent. (as many would think). The irish language has a tapped R similar to an American accent saying "butter" "water" "ladder" "better" etc. Infact I would call this a defining characteristic of the American accent. How much did Gaelic languages influence English accents, probably majorly. How much did Irish influence American English in particular, who knows, maybe alot, maybe a little.

      @@EughhBrothereughh Look what I said above about rhotic speech. I'm sure thats the biggest influence. How much did irish speech influence english we will never know, but early on almost all immigration was british isles here. It's not like Germans influenced an accent when it was already established. By the time Italians and everyone else came, accent was already firmly established.

    • @internetual7350

      A lot of the problem lies with the Irish people themselves if you ask me, we have what is called a "cultural cringe" by where we gravitate towards colonial relics like the English language due to us viewing it as "superior" and "more useful" than our indigenous language ach mé féin, is fearr liom Gaeilge.

      Its taught in schools and is kind of pushed in a way that you HAVE to learn it, If they made more of an effort to explain the significance of our language and make people proud to speak it, then I'd imagine more students would actually try learning it. But its also a societal problem too, most kids/teens see it as "not cool" and "useless"

      @@xabier2411 Yes, you can't downplay the erosive strength of English and the attitudes that go with it. In the US immigrant languages usually disappear in a generation or two with the exception of Spanish for obvious reasons and even that has a tough time of it.
      In England, Nigel Farrage commented that he was irritated if he heard any other language spoken in the street. I doubt he is the only one with such attitudes.
      People's attitudes count for a lot. I recently heard that in Indonesia, at least in the cities, if you don't have a good knowledge of English, you are seen as very uncool. In Indonesia... a country of almost 280m people thousands of kilometres from the two main English-speaking areas, a very different culture and yet English is making inroads there.
      In the Netherlands about 20 years ago there was a suggestion that they should drop Dutch in University courses and have all third-level education in English.
      I teach English in Dublin [yes, I know ... but who better to talk about English?]. Twenty years ago, the second language for Brazilians was Spanish. Nowadays, it's hard to find a Brazilian who has ever studied that language. I needn't tell you what the second language is.. and that change was very rapid.
      In Paris, years ago, a lot of people didn't like it if you spoke English to them. Still plenty of Parisians like that but I have heard it's now 50/50.
      It's frankly a miracle that Irish has survived to the present. Plenty of people predicted it would be dead by 2000. Wishful thinking, I suspect.
