My aunt once told me that people from Cavan eat their meals out of a drawer, so that if visitors come calling, they can slam it shut and not have to feed them.
A famous joke goes My Cavan grandfather was approached by two men asking for donations for the local swimming pool and my grandfather being the man he is went out and got a bucket of water and gave it to the men he then told them that he wanted the bucket back
ive noticed in videos like these people in the comments who are from Ireland feel a need to announce that fact by stating there county of origin. Why is it we do that. im from galway by the way
Niall is one of our best story tellers I luv how he uses different accents when telling his stories he really commands ur attention in the most pleasing way iv listened to him since I was child and still 30 oddyears later he still has me laughing and intrigued in his story telling and his comedy with out any smutt will have u in stitches laughing
When he did the Cavan accent it reminded me of my boyfriend’s Cavan dad steaming an unmarked stamp off an envelope he received. He was so excited to have lucked out. Memories 😂
'A Cavan man once told me, 'Duh hawvash moo isha bryhesh moo naday ear'. Can't argue with that can you. Since arguing with it would require you to understand it.
Although I know most of those names he was in, here in Britain the series I remember Mr Toibin in most of all was Ballykissangel of course. He played the priest in it of course too. Shown on BBC1 on a Sunday night then mostly from 1996 to 2001 at the time. Great series, as well as him, the other actors so too. Filmed of course at Avoca in Co Wicklow as well too. Thank you!
Love the Irish accent, coming from Coventry, a real melting pots of Irish dialects at my local Club, growing up just hearing the lilting voices of my friends parents, happy days, Kerry, Kilarney, Mayo, Clare , Clare, Cavan, limerick, Galway, beautiful
Reminds me of my mum god bless her she is almost 92 now almost blind with Alzheimers, now so she lives in her own little Kinsale world. Still takes 2 to 3 helpers to cope with her and she has still a great right uppercut(The fighting Irish :) She is the last of her family left all brothers and sisters gone now. Maybe she makes it to a century?
is that a map showing the average IQ of each counties population? because if it is, being from Belfast ,I know that the average IQ is way more than 6...it should be at least 9 or 10
Being born in wales but having lots of family in cork I can confirm that there seems to be some sort of a crossover 😄 like some words sound exactly the same in a valleys accent as they do in a cork accent.
I've watched a few videos summarizing Irish accents, and from what I can tell, no-one in Ireland knows what they sound like. I also visited Scotland (as a western Canadian,) and was asked more than once if I was from Ireland. I'm getting suspicious. Is Ireland a real place, or is it like Narnia? I saw it from the air once, but that could have been Tir-na-Nog.
The first time we visited Ireland, we stopped at Blarney Castle (yes, we did the usual *tourist* stuff on that trip). A man with a thick French accent asked me to take a picture of him and his wife with the castle in the background. I obliged, and told him that it was my pleasure to do it. As I handed his camera back to him, he asked me what part of Canada I was from. I’ve lived in Texas my whole 50-year life, and my accent gives it away almost immediately. (Folks tell me that I have an accent, but I consider myself to be accent-neutral. Everyone ELSE has an accent.) :) For the record, I’m an unapologetic Texas exceptionalist. Until our first vacation to Ireland, I would have NEVER given a thought to living anywhere other than my little slice of heaven on earth. That said, I would move to Ireland in a heartbeat....wouldn’t even pack a suitcase! I’d give my company to an employee, and I’d give my house to my daughter. Just park my truck and the airport and let the bank go pick it up! LOL I have no clue whether I have an Irish bloodline, but Éire is in my blood!
Speaking as a regular visitor to Ireland from the UK, the only accent that eludes me is Kerry. I remember asking a farmer direction back in the 1980s, and if I'd asked him to repeat it we'd have been stood there now. He was definitely speaking English, not Irish, but I'd have probably got the Irish quicker without understanding a word.
John 3:16-21 16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. 17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. 18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. 19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. 20 For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. 21 But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God. Mark 1.15 15 And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel. Jesus Christ saves repent and follow him today seek his kingdom today is the day of salvation come to him today
I was born in Wales and raised by my Irish grandparents immigrants from Wexford. I could understand them but if we had Irish visitors the different dialects of English became a total puzzle to me be jasus so they were
I looked at my great grandfathers Wexford Census from 1914 or whatever. The policeman writing down the names, had written Davit, and Margarethe along with recognisable names. It wasn't until I said the names out loud with an Irish accent that I got it. Lol
He nailed the south monaghan accent, the north monaghan accent is the complete opposite, we sound much more "Northern" than we really are. And some people around blayney sound like dubs haha.
I´m a Donegal man, but have lived the most of my life in Scandinavia, but when i visit my home land, I am told that I still have my Donegal accent. But why should I change it . It has been voted to be the sexiest accent in Ireland.
Galway/Mayo probably have the easiest accents to understand, although it differs agin within the county, Connemara, Galway City (natives) , Tuam and South Galway, but overall we understand each other, and so do most foreigners!
Most Irish accents i find easy enough to understand including most of Co Galway and Mayo but years ago i met a Connemara Shepherd in the mountains and could hardly understand him!
@@eileannach4350 You might not be the only one lol...a lot of old men live alone and rarely talk to anyone, except the dog, so their dialect gets worse and worse....until they end up being barely intelligible, not a put down or anything, and English may not be his first language either....Thanks for sharing...)
Are young people still using it? Or does it sound weird? I love the accent and have it myself, but would I sound somewhat weird if I spoke like this to Irish people? I am a young Frenchman fascinated by Ireland and I just want a very Irish accent. To be more precise, my R's are not rolled like his in the video, but I do practically everything else like him
It's still heavily used. People would be taken back by it and I've found that people even in Waterford or Clare find the Kerry accent to be very strange and humourous.
From a Welshman, who has travelled a little around the southern half of the Emerald Isle, my favourite would be the Galway accent, although on saying that the rest sounds very nice to my ears.
Well Galway is in the west, not the south so your directions are a little mixed up. Unless.....you meant you travelled around Ireland- or the ROI- not everything that isn't NI is "the South".
South Tipperary is in Offaly, so it would be similar to Kildare, Offaly and Laois. If you go to Athlone there is a right mixture between Midlands and the West. It's part Midlands part Roscommon. Mayo was left out and that is probably the most laud back accent, similar to the people,very easy going.
This is most interesting so too of course. Although I am British English, I do have Irish ancestry too. Although I have not been there at all though. The different accents though can be almighty confusing though for sure too!
A Drogheda accent and a Dundalk accent are very different. Drogheda accent has a certain Dublin twang and the R's are not pronounced in nearly all words. Dundalk can sound Northern at times and "hi" frequently said after a sentence.
I'm from Mayo born and bred and a proud Westerner and I don't care how the dubs make fun of us. Our accent is class no matter how much its joked about. There's one main accent in Mayo but it's thicker in different parts. If ye don't know we pronounce shh in words. We also throw ín or een at the end of words like birdín or dogeen and so on, basically when your talking about something small. Now the dubs like to call us boggers. In East of Mayo its very soft. But there's some towns in the east with thick accents. Up the North they sound a biteen more high pitched but are thicker speakers in the North West. The North East sound like the east. Now the South of Mayo is where I'm from and we speak very thick accents down here, we're much thicker than the North and East. But I'm afraid the West Mayo people take the tae with the way they talk they aren't hard to understand but they speak alot deeper and thicker. The accent is always thicker where people speak Irish. So North West , South and West do the most. East and North East not that much. Never be ashamed of your accent it's apart of who you are 💪
Funnily enough, Dubliners don't spend their time walking around the capital slagging off the Mayo accent. Lived here all my life. Never heard of anyone doing that. Actually, never recall anyone mentioning Mayo. Could it be you have a wee bit of an inferiority complex? A complexín?
@@stephendaedalus6192 Why would we have complexes of inferiority🤣 We love our accents. And everytime I've been to Dublin some jeaicín says something to you about being from Mayo but as far as I've experienced 99% it's just jigactin but you've the odd strange person generally close to the All Ireland who's pure anti Mayo. But shur look we could give a cac eitilte on what a few dubeens think of us🤣
@@deaganachomarunacathasaigh4344 That's likely because you have a big bog head on you. You were suggesting Dubliners were obsessed with slagging off Mayo, whereas nobody gives a shite about Mayo. Sporting rivalry is something else. Well, I say 'rivalry', but... ah, ok, that made your inferiority complex worse. Got you. Someone ribbing you for being a massive culchie bogtrotter is not Dubliners furiously hating Mayo, it's Dubliners taking the piss... out of you... and your pretend Irish. Why badly transpose jackeen into Irish, when it's an English word? To appear super-patriotic? Because the effect is somewhat different than you perhaps imagined.
It's only a bit of slagging. The thing that Mayo folk need to understand is that Dubliners are actually very fond of Mayo. I loved it up there so much that I took one of your women home with me.
I wish English language well known comedy writer P.G Wodehouse should have also written books about Ireland so we could have also enjoyed a bit of hilarity about that region also.
I was in Heathrow airport, waiting for a plane, and around me were couples speaking English with American, English, Irish, Scottish and Australian accents. The Irish accent was the most beautiful, but also the most difficult for this American to understand. I have no idea where in Ireland they were from, but it was a very strong accent. I was in a youth hostel in Toronto, and there were two young Irish men sharing the room. They both seemed like nice people, but took an immediate dislike to each other due to regional prejudices. One was from Dublin, the other from a small seaside town, I don't remember where. Was the antipathy town and country, political, religious? Whatever the source, It seemed totally unnecessary.
Probably anti capital city bias. You get the same in England, France Spain where people dislike the capital and usually because those in the capital look down on those from the provinces. Certainly very true in Ireland, Dubs think they're better than us in general, it's very irritating.
Tbf, dubs can be arrogant wankers and refer to everywhere that's not Dublin "the sticks". I doubt it had anything to do with town rivalries and more to do with condescension.
Well the snobs maybe think that, but i can assure you that people from Swords or anywhere else in north county Dublin, haven’t a single bad word to say about country people, sure most of north Dublin is country..
@@Tyler12ismynumber I don't think so. A cursory view, with the higher figures/darker colours concentrated in the west, might suggest so, but look carefully. It is a linear scale, and does Galway (value = 71) really receive over 35 times more rain than Derry (value = 2)? Also why would Dublin be so different to the other east coast? It has to be something else, but exactly what I don't have a clue!
I'm English and I can pinpoint a Belfast accent obviously as that's the Irish accent we hear most in the UK and I can tell the difference between Cork and Dublin accents that's about it I'm sorry. This actor Niall Toibin, I can't recall what I've seen him in? A Minder episode or a Sweeney episode he looks really familiar?
It does say up the top what he was in of old-tv series as well as films so too. As I have already put, I remember him in Ballykissangel, the series that used to be on BBC1 of old so too.
+efilperpenfuhrer Newfoundland , a great place for accents. I went to MUN in 72 and it serves as gade 12 in Ontario. I learned to do a bit of half a dozen including that one that is pushed through the adenoids in the back of your nose. People often think Newfs speak an Irish accent and there are a few but mostly they are from coastal England . Those accents are gone from England . It;s the same with quite a few of the old names . Is there anyone left in England with the surname of Snooke I Knows two in Sin Jans ,now
***** My sister-in-law's Mother, Mary Elizabeth Dunphy, for eg., Sounds like She just got off the Plane from Ireland. I knew a Irish Squash Champion, John Fleury, Who Said he Met Some Newfoundlanders in Ireland and first assumed They were from some Other Part of Ireland. The Irish accent is There....English, too. Funny how You Meet Irish Bostoners and They got no Irish Accent...far from it. Thanks for your Answer.
Bet most Americans wouldn't notice a difference between any of these. I'm from Birmingham and anytime I'm in Ireland at least one American asks me what part of Ireland I'm from.
Where is Amanda Woods of Mrs Brown’s Boys from? They’re all Irish and they still made fun of her accent a couple times, once using closed captioning. 😂
I moved back to Ireland, to Dublin, 6 years ago after having lived abroad. I thought the people in dublin had a strange accent, but that was because my parents were from Tipp and I thought all the Irish spoke like that.......Up Tipp

I'm from Mayo born and bred and a proud Westerner and I don't care how the dubs make fun of us. Our accent is class no matter how much its joked about. There's one main accent in Mayo but it's thicker in different parts. If ye don't know we pronounce shh in words. We also throw ín or een at the end of words like birdín or dogeen and so on, basically when your talking about something small. Now the dubs like to call us boggers. In East of Mayo its very soft. But there's some towns in the east with thick accents. Up the North they sound a biteen more high pitched but are thicker speakers in the North West. The North East sound like the east. Now the South of Mayo is where I'm from and we speak very thick accents down here, we're much thicker than the North and East. But I'm afraid the West Mayo people take the tae with the way they talk they aren't hard to understand but they speak alot deeper and thicker. The accent is always thicker where people speak Irish. So North West , South and West do the most. East and North East not that much. Never be ashamed of your accent it's apart of who you are 💪
Funnily enough, Dubliners don't spend their time walking around the capital slagging off the Mayo accent. Lived here all my life. Never heard of anyone doing that. Actually, never recall anyone mentioning Mayo. Could it be you have a wee bit of an inferiority complex? A complexín?
@@stephendaedalus6192 Why would we have complexes of inferiority🤣 We love our accents.
And everytime I've been to Dublin some jeaicín says something to you about being from Mayo but as far as I've experienced 99% it's just jigactin but you've the odd strange person generally close to the All Ireland who's pure anti Mayo. But shur look we could give a cac eitilte on what a few dubeens think of us🤣
@@deaganachomarunacathasaigh4344 That's likely because you have a big bog head on you. You were suggesting Dubliners were obsessed with slagging off Mayo, whereas nobody gives a shite about Mayo. Sporting rivalry is something else. Well, I say 'rivalry', but... ah, ok, that made your inferiority complex worse. Got you. Someone ribbing you for being a massive culchie bogtrotter is not Dubliners furiously hating Mayo, it's Dubliners taking the piss... out of you... and your pretend Irish. Why badly transpose jackeen into Irish, when it's an English word? To appear super-patriotic? Because the effect is somewhat different than you perhaps imagined.
It's only a bit of slagging. The thing that Mayo folk need to understand is that Dubliners are actually very fond of Mayo. I loved it up there so much that I took one of your women home with me.
Where's wexford
Very annoying
No Wicklow either :(
Ye ino Sahn no Wexford accent tho brudder quare annoyin do here are ya coming out in the premier son
Go raibh míle maith agat a chara.
Muchas gracias amigo, in Spanish.
I Love Eire, I've been there more than 10 times.
I feel in home always.
PURE GOLD.
One thing I did notice while there was that the further from Dublin I got, the thicker the accents got.
The two nicest sounding Irish accents are Galway and Donegal.
I love Ireland and lived there 10 years ❤👍😀paul payton England x
I'm in Derry and I want to know what there is 0-5 of right this minute
I wish English language well known comedy writer P.G Wodehouse should have also written books about Ireland so we could have also enjoyed a bit of hilarity about that region also.
I was in Heathrow airport, waiting for a plane, and around me were couples speaking English with American, English, Irish, Scottish and Australian accents. The Irish accent was the most beautiful, but also the most difficult for this American to understand. I have no idea where in Ireland they were from, but it was a very strong accent. I was in a youth hostel in Toronto, and there were two young Irish men sharing the room. They both seemed like nice people, but took an immediate dislike to each other due to regional prejudices. One was from Dublin, the other from a small seaside town, I don't remember where. Was the antipathy town and country, political, religious? Whatever the source, It seemed totally unnecessary.
Probably anti capital city bias. You get the same in England, France Spain where people dislike the capital and usually because those in the capital look down on those from the provinces. Certainly very true in Ireland, Dubs think they're better than us in general, it's very irritating.
Tbf, dubs can be arrogant wankers and refer to everywhere that's not Dublin "the sticks". I doubt it had anything to do with town rivalries and more to do with condescension.
Any true blue Dubliner wishes we had our town back and not this cosmopolitan shit hole.
Well the snobs maybe think that, but i can assure you that people from Swords or anywhere else in north county Dublin, haven’t a single bad word to say about country people, sure most of north Dublin is country..
@@irishelk3 agreed.
Truly fantastic all rounder!
This is very good, grew up between drogheda and ardee, nailed it
Dublin accent really sounds like liverpudlian.
What the heck is the map about? 0-5 what?
Divides Ireland by accent.
Did you watch the video at all?
+didocarthage Looked it up - it's a map of Ireland showing nativity of members of the 23rd Illinois Infantry
:)
Dáire Mag Shamhráin Thank you!
***** Or maybe the number of sunny days per year?
+TheMATTYB1234 lol how, by the level of difficulty to understand the accent in a scale of 0 to 100?
Anyone know what the scale/values allocated to the counties represent on the screen here?
Rain fall
@@Tyler12ismynumber I don't think so. A cursory view, with the higher figures/darker colours concentrated in the west, might suggest so, but look carefully. It is a linear scale, and does Galway (value = 71) really receive over 35 times more rain than Derry (value = 2)?
Also why would Dublin be so different to the other east coast?
It has to be something else, but exactly what I don't have a clue!
What about Donegal ? :( It's quite different from Belfast or Monaghan and it was forgotten :(
RIP Niall Toibin
I'm English and I can pinpoint a Belfast accent obviously as that's the Irish accent we hear most in the UK and I can tell the difference between Cork and Dublin accents that's about it I'm sorry. This actor Niall Toibin, I can't recall what I've seen him in? A Minder episode or a Sweeney episode he looks really familiar?
It does say up the top what he was in of old-tv series as well as films so too. As I have already put, I remember him in Ballykissangel, the series that used to be on BBC1 of old so too.
Hon Galway

he nailed the drogheda one. im from there
Same
All these videos on Irish accents are triggering me because none of them sound anything like our accents. I am from Tyrone btw.
Cavan chick here, and the everyone who fucking imitates our accents are always fucking wrong
@@mickibabe5495 i don't think we really have an accent tbh
-cavan person obv
The audio is years old. Accents have changed over the years.
Way she goes. Anywhere you go there's a lot more than one way of talking. You could hear 100 accents in any country.
They always get the Dublin one wrong cos there's a tiny part of British desendants that sounds posh but the real Dublin accent isn't at all
2:52 - I HAD NO IDEA UVULAR R'S WERE A THING IN IRELAND!?
The Midlands accent had me buckled!!!
This gave me a good idea as to how my ancestors spoke.
I like to practice my Galway accent often because it's the most recognizeable Irish accent in countries foreign to Ireland. (I'm Eastern Canadian.)
Brett Atkinson where you from? i'm from newfoundland.
+efilperpenfuhrer Newfoundland , a great place for accents. I went to MUN in 72 and it serves as gade 12 in Ontario. I learned to do a bit of half a dozen
including that one that is pushed through the adenoids in the back of your nose. People often think Newfs speak an Irish accent and there are a few
but mostly they are from coastal England . Those accents are gone from England . It;s the same with quite a few of the old names . Is there anyone left in England with the surname of Snooke I Knows two in Sin Jans ,now

My sister-in-law's Mother, Mary Elizabeth Dunphy, for eg., Sounds like She just got off the Plane from Ireland. I knew a Irish Squash Champion, John Fleury, Who Said he Met Some Newfoundlanders in Ireland and first assumed They were from some Other Part of Ireland. The Irish accent is There....English, too. Funny how You Meet Irish Bostoners and They got no Irish Accent...far from it. Thanks for your Answer.
I like the Towny accent (that of St. John's), pretty your average Northern American newscaster's accent.
How do you practice it? And what parts of it do think are different to other accents? (From Galway)
There’s a few different accents within Monaghan itself
You can definitely hear the scottish influence in the Belfast accent.
WHERE WAS WEXFORD?!
Where's Wexford in all this??
Chris Lacey on the bottom right :)
Yea I was waiting for the Wexford-Carlow accent. We have our own made up words that he could’ve used
Bet most Americans wouldn't notice a difference between any of these. I'm from Birmingham and anytime I'm in Ireland at least one American asks me what part of Ireland I'm from.
Northern Irish accent makes me want to re-watch "The Fall" Great series.
The end was brilliant.
SW Donegal? Untouchable it tis.
Where is Amanda Woods of Mrs Brown’s Boys from?
They’re all Irish and they still made fun of her accent a couple times, once using closed captioning. 😂
I didn't understand the bit where he spoke about the usular r? When talking about Kilkenny Tipperary
Props for the Kavanagh lines in the middle. Flashback to secondary school English for a moment.
Dublin - What's da stawree?
Belfast - Hay-abite-yee?
Cork - Well hawza guin like?
The Galway accent is sooooo on point! My Da sounded exactly like that whenever he was angry 😂🤣
County Sligo and Mayo are elite
Can someone please put a time stamp to each accent?
I moved back to Ireland, to Dublin, 6 years ago after having lived abroad. I thought the people in dublin had a strange accent, but that was because my parents were from Tipp and I thought all the Irish spoke like that.......Up Tipp
Surprisingly impressive.
