I have a friend who’s little sisters name I’ve been saying for years but always trips me up when I’m reading it because it’s spelt Sabhvn or something and suddenly I can’t pronounce it
As the Irish language only has 19 characters anytime you see a h with a consonant before it is pronounced as V. Niamh = Neve, Caoimhín = Keeveen/Qweevin, Siobhán = Shivon
We actually pronounce it more like *KWEEVA* never heard it without the W. Eabha should be pronounced *AYVA* No one pronounced it *AVA*, sometimes people say *EEVA* Not sure where in Northern Ireland Hes from but the rest of the country doesn’t say that. Quite strange feels like he’s messing it up too.
I feel so good that a native of English language can’t get the NI accent either!!😂😂 English is my second language and I felt terrible how little I understood when I first moved to Belfast. 8 months in I was picking up the accent myself😂😂Love you people of Belfast..you guys welcomed me well❤️😭
My sisters longtime boyfriend is Nodern Irish. (We are dutch) They are trying to find a name that's Irish, had a nice meaning, is not to confusing for dutch pr friends and stuff, AND sounds nice to both of them. It's been 8 months and they still haven't found one😂
These are just Irish name's not Northern Irish. Caoimhe is an Irish girl's name the same with Saoirse and Aoife. Niamh is another familiar one where mh is pronounced V.
Funny as H*ll! Sounds like US Regional Accents- WI: “...hay ya seen da bubbler about or a pop?” TRANSLATED Deep South: “...ahhh yeah...think I’ll have me a Coke...ummmm...[which mean ANY type of soft drink]
Yeah everyone knows pop / soda, thats not a regional thing like people like to make it out to be. People 60+ refer to all soft drinks as coke in the south, never heard anyone younger than that do it
My name is pronounced Dawn-nell, I'm 53, not even my family spells or says it correctly, and all my junk mail comes for mr. Donnell. I'm female was born female, and identity as female. So watching this really cracks me up!!!
Its funny but even we Americans are considered to have an accent also, because in a different country we don't sound like the locals.😄👍I learned that from a man with a southern accent in Tennessee 😁
In some languages, two consonants put together will sound different than they look. Spanish is a good example where two lowercase L's put together are pronounced like a 'y', like tortilla. It's pronounced tor-te-ya. You don't see the y, but that's how it's pronounced.
Hey I got one for ya... It's eastern upper downer side ways and front back from America! It's Xileafiaquaytasharaymanicolletra.... Have fun with that one! Oh and the x makes a z sound...
English: I have letter in words....but we never use those letters while pronouncing the word... NI: "HOLD MY BEER" we pronounce words with letters that aren't even in the word!
I like the name Niamph a lot (Niamph is pronounced like "eve" but with an n in the beginning) I'm from Texas and we have a lot of out there names, but none like the irish
My name is Moira-Katherine (but go by Moira) and I live in southern US... they literally just skip to my last name every time. I don’t even correct people anymore they butcher it so bad
Aisling That's the client's name we supposed to bring for a tubing activity. Had no idea how to pronounce it. It's pronounced as Ashley. Yes, she's Irish. I'm Malaysian.
I was waiting for them to do “Siobhan”. It’s pronounced “Shavonne”.
That’s the only one I always remember lmao
Or saoirse is "sorsha"
@@bleepbloop9251 heyyy that’s my name up north they tend to say sorsha but south we say seersha 🤪
I only know this because I watch Clare Siobhan
I have a friend who’s little sisters name I’ve been saying for years but always trips me up when I’m reading it because it’s spelt Sabhvn or something and suddenly I can’t pronounce it
I love how he smiles and nods then says no
He said no❤️
@L!ly Moon no wonder where I get it from
no❤️🥰

Don't forget Medb!
@Trashlie Mezzer They are indeed, so they are.
@@timpanini3848 meadbh*
Well, not every consonant, just b and sometimes m.
Niamh is more like Nerve than Neve
"THERE'S NO V!"
Made me giggle every time
This would be the most awkward first day teacher class name calling for anyone English
English: "Caoimhe"
Irish: " *K E E V A* " 😂😂
English: Caoilfhoinn
Irish: Keelin
We actually pronounce it more like *KWEEVA* never heard it without the W.
Eabha should be pronounced *AYVA*
No one pronounced it *AVA*, sometimes people say *EEVA*
Not sure where in Northern Ireland Hes from but the rest of the country doesn’t say that. Quite strange feels like he’s messing it up too.
@@donalgeaney626 my daughter is Eabha and we pronounce it Eeva. Lots of people pronounce both keeva and qeeva.d
I’m surely not the only one who found this cute and wholesome?
My friends name is Caoimhe and she is from Ireland when they said they are doing names I knew what the first was going to be lol
I feel so good that a native of English language can’t get the NI accent either!!😂😂 English is my second language and I felt terrible how little I understood when I first moved to Belfast. 8 months in I was picking up the accent myself😂😂Love you people of Belfast..you guys welcomed me well❤️😭
In the Hebrew language, the letter b for bet, is also pronounced as a "v".
The bh and mh make the V sound here
@@jaqian then cardi would have made bap instead of wap
Spanish too
@@penyarol83 no it's not, sir...not in my language!
The same in Venezuela, they actually pronounce it Benezuela over there.
The names are in Irish what has this to do with accents and it’s the Irish language not northern Irish
Thanks, I thought something was off. 🤔😁☕
Haha says the man with the Scottish name but yeah ask a real Irish man like meself and ya won’t go wrong
Exactly. Irish names not Northern Irish.
He's from northern ireland
Yea he even says them wrong aswell
My sisters longtime boyfriend is Nodern Irish. (We are dutch) They are trying to find a name that's Irish, had a nice meaning, is not to confusing for dutch pr friends and stuff, AND sounds nice to both of them.
It's been 8 months and they still haven't found one😂
It's weird how two different languages are different 🤦
Lol William ya sarky get

They're speaking the same language
You know that Irish people speak English right Dumass
@@McShazer you know that Gaelic isn't english right, assclown?

Love both your accents!!💗
Me being Irish made it 10 times better
These are just Irish name's not Northern Irish. Caoimhe is an Irish girl's name the same with Saoirse and Aoife. Niamh is another familiar one where mh is pronounced V.
Couldnt help but notice that too. I'm from Northern Ireland and haven't a clue how to say most Irish names except the ones you've mentioned.
He has a northern irish accent trust me im northern irish
@@lilliemajorx Nobody said he hasn't. We are saying that the name's are Irish, not Northern Irish. Trust me I'm from Dublin.
The most rare would be Dearbhla. Pronounced Dervla, Daughter of the poet is the meaning.
@@MrRizLa69 oh I've met a Deirbhile before! Not a very common name in County Antrim though tbh Niamh and Roisin and the like would be more popular.
Funny as H*ll! Sounds like US Regional Accents- WI: “...hay ya seen da bubbler about or a pop?”
TRANSLATED Deep South: “...ahhh yeah...think I’ll have me a Coke...ummmm...[which mean ANY type of soft drink]
Yeah everyone knows pop / soda, thats not a regional thing like people like to make it out to be. People 60+ refer to all soft drinks as coke in the south, never heard anyone younger than that do it
This made me think of Niall Horan lol still love his accent
Oh my god why is this so funny and calming at the same time?!
She's english but doesn't understand why the word sounds different than what is written. Now she understands how others see the english language.😅
Yeah, English is my first language and I struggle to read it. And I’m rlly good at it
My name is pronounced Dawn-nell, I'm 53, not even my family spells or says it correctly, and all my junk mail comes for mr. Donnell. I'm female was born female, and identity as female. So watching this really cracks me up!!!
Parents favourite food? Begins with Mc 🤣
I love how she sounded like wall-e when she said Eabha. It's just very cute
English people: Dave
Irish people: no no no! It’s Johnny sins
I'm from the Appalachian mountains. Sounds like kinfolk to me.
Well hello neighbor I'm in the lower part of the bluegrass state
I have trouble pronouncing those beautiful Irish names too.
Both accents are hilarious when spoken to people who don't have an accent...
Its funny but even we Americans are considered to have an accent also, because in a different country we don't sound like the locals.😄👍I learned that from a man with a southern accent in Tennessee 😁
Everyone has an accent
@@user-ry6jj6kx2s yes we do we all do according to who we are...but ya gotta love it...
Lmao Americans speak english so the english are the ones without an accent they just pronounce words correct lmao (I'm joking everyone has an accent)
@@conservativedoggo28 Not in america its robotic everybody sounds the same...
Have a look at ‘lee Mack Irish names’ part of his stand up (it is on RUclips somewhere) it’s brilliant!
There’s a girl called Caoimhe in my class and the teachers alway get her name wrong. Some even just say her last name.🥺😭😂
See this is what the continuous whisky drinkinh is doing... 😅😂
"Top of the morning"
Sounds like someone I know
"Top of the morning lads My name is Jacksepticeye"
That's where
I’m American and I knew all of these. But I’m also very interested in my Irish heritage so.
"HOW THERES NO VAY THERES NO VAY!!!" I love the way she says that
Her first reaction was priceless
There was a girl in my school called caoimhe... and I’m British
This lady is literally me
Her: THERES NO V
First time I've ever seen my name mentioned in one of these videos!!!!!😍
She’s so fired up about it
"Top of the mornin" killed my irish man mood
Everyone: Listening to how she gets it wrong and also gets confused
Me: Me listening to, THERES NO VAY
American comes along.
"What are these random words your making up"
My friends name is Caoimhe and yes she is directly from Ireland, she moved here to the states 3 years ago
My name is Aoife I get called so many different things 😂
They both sound good 👍👍💕👍💕👍
I’m sorry I loved it when she went “THERES NO VAY” 😂😂💕✨
Northern Irish with a British flag
IRA : and i took that personally.
Here’s me I’m Irish-Republican Irish.....and I’m a red head😂
THERE IS NO V!
mh: Am I a joke to you?

I’m part English and Northern Irish and this is so relatable
Any letter before H immediately turns that whole section into a V
Dude I'm from Northern Ireland and this just makes me keep laughing🇮🇪😂😂😂
Man she's beautiful and has that exotic accent 😍😳 yep. Sign me up for language tutoring lol.
I knew a girl named Niamh when I was younger. Now hearing the name and finally seeing how she wrote it had me just like this 😂
I love when people say: top of the morning to you
i have a friend named caomhie and i laugh every time we get a new teacher and they say something completely different!!!
Love both your accents an video fun.
Me being irish and just laughing because i now all of em obviously and say some slightly different from the northern irish
At night in my bed lights off sound muted and secretly watching this so I can’t really enjoy 🙄😅😂🤣
Mh and bh is often pronounced as v 😌🤪
The most rare would be Dearbhla. Pronounced Dervla, Daughter of the poet is the meaning.
I am from Northern Ireland & have lived here all my life - I have not heard nor could I read or even begin to pronounce half of these names
She sounds like Elmo who got realistic
My name isn't spelled Eva anymore I am changing it to Eabha.
*nods head yes*
"No"😂😂
I'll take his melodic prounounciation of ANYTHING over her shrill on and on.
A Hint: Be Quiet And Learn Something. It Will Be An Improvement.
No accent like his accent 🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪
You guys sound funny eh 😂🇨🇦
This just proves to me America perfected the English language
Hey I got one for ya... It's eastern upper downer side ways and front back from America! It's Xileafiaquaytasharaymanicolletra.... Have fun with that one! Oh and the x makes a z sound...
Saoirse I think is pronounced like sear-sha. The only reason I remember that is because I watched the song of the sea like a billion times.
didn’t think I’d hear my name in this but here we are
It’s quite easy when u think about it bc if u know aoife is pronounced eefa and niamh is pronounced neeve put to and to together.. 🤷🏼♀️
Let’s have a wee play with the laws of physics shall we?

Super cute guys!❤❤❤

Cause we are clean protestants 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
Raging prod
@@natashaferran420 👍👍👍
Those are the two biggest catholic names and they are difficult to pronounce for someone who isn't Irish.
English: I have letter in words....but we never use those letters while pronouncing the word...
NI: "HOLD MY BEER" we pronounce words with letters that aren't even in the word!
As northern Irish, this is hilarious😂
I couldnt pronounce those names either.😂😂
I like the name Niamph a lot (Niamph is pronounced like "eve" but with an n in the beginning) I'm from Texas and we have a lot of out there names, but none like the irish
Niamh. Not Niamph. I'm from Dublin, Ireland's capital city.
These are Irish not Northern Irish. I would know, I’m northern Irish
@Station View two different countries though
@Station View 2. Different. Countries
She said Irish name challenge not Northern Irish
The northern Irish are Irish though
@@djcarson9030 what about the title and the first two words that were said hun
Reminds me of "Outlanders" the show
That’s Gaelic for ya.
The English lady is me watching jacksepticeye name his pets in Minecraft
Casually holding a knife lol
No one:

The girl: THERE IS NO V!!!!

Reminds me of when I learned how saoirse ronan pronounced her first name. It's pronounced Seersha apparently
there is no wayeeeeee. love that
English is so wierd nothing makes sense
ireland:
No wonder the Irish were left alone during the potato blight
My name is Clodagh, I live in Australia, my teachers can never get me name right 🙈😐😠
My name is Moira-Katherine (but go by Moira) and I live in southern US... they literally just skip to my last name every time. I don’t even correct people anymore they butcher it so bad
Clodagh is nice Irish name and it's actually rare enough over here.
This is how it feels to be dyslexic and irish
Aisling
That's the client's name we supposed to bring for a tubing activity. Had no idea how to pronounce it.
It's pronounced as Ashley. Yes, she's Irish. I'm Malaysian.
It's ceava 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Drives me mad!
Isn’t she married to him? Like how do they talk if she sounds shook about everything he says.
maybe because he speaks English too?
Probably cuz they don't talk about North Irish names all day everyday...
The letters bh in Irish language are pronounced as a V .
Irish girl here (not northern irish though) bh in the irish language(Gaelic) makes a v sound so yes makes sense
Damn that's crazy 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
