#Irish accent

Something about barty with a THICK Irish accent really does it for me.

Differences in Irish English vs British English

-Prepositions:

Irish people use more prepositions. It’s anecdotal but my Dad always likes to reference the joke of a parent saying to their kid: “get out from behind that thing behind which you are currently stood”

-Tenses (To be or not to be after doing?)

Where a Brit has “just done something”, and Irishman will “after doing” it. For example, in his  1988 novel “The Commitments”, Roddy Doyle writes: “I'm after rememberin'. I forgot to bring mine back. It's under me bed.”  That is to say that character just remembered in that moment.

-Yes/No

For the Portuguese reader this may seem natural; in Ireland they are less likely to use yes or no. Instead they opt for using the verb again. Think: “Would you like a cup of tea?” “I would”. This may stem from the Irish language’s lack of the words yes and no.

-Religious influences in everyday speech:

Irish has been known to be “the most Catholic country in the world” so its like surprise that such phrases have entered into everyday vernacular:

Jesus, Mary, and Joseph, - This is used to expressed surprise 

Jesus H. Christ - This is used in anger, surprise, frustration or for humour (I would if Jesus has different initials internationally!)

-Individual bits of vocab

Press = Cupboard 

Hot press = Airing cupboard

Gas = Great

To give out = To tell off a child 

Yer man/yer wan = Any man/ woman that you’re referring to

Grand = Good/fine

Acting the maggot = Messing around or acting up

On the lash = Out drinking

Give it a lash= Give it a go

Now we’re suckin’ diesel = Now this is a phrase to mean something has started to go right

Effin’ and blindin’ = Swearing

Eejit = An insult for an idiot

I’ve been feeling homesick so here’s a list of differences between Irish English and British English inspired by my Irish da. Anyways go watch The Banshees of Inisherin -a good Irish film (pronounced fillum)

“Most Attractive Accent A Man Can Have” quiz.

Vote for the most attractive accent that a man can have! This will be part of a series and I’ll be using it to do something cool, so keep watch!

If you don’t like men, pretend that you do for however long it takes for you to put your votes in. Then go back to kissing girls, kissing others or kissing nobody in particular.

Note that I’m not taking regional dialects of certain countries into account. Many of these countries are being watered down because I doubt the average Tumblr user is smart enough to point out half the places here on a map.

Now, tell me honestly…

EDIT: To those of you who are asking “what about this country???” There is a limit to how many poll answers I can put down. I intentionally left that country out because the accents there are more obscure and I wanted to make sure I got all the big, well known ones. In hindsight, I probably should’ve made an “other” category, but I’m too fucking tired to care and if I did make an “other” category, I’d have to go through every single comment and reblog to see what “other” means for each person and it just wouldn’t be worth it.

A lovely three - I mean Tree - emote for RTGame! Really love how this one turned out!

For those out of the loop, with an Irish accent, "Tree" and "Three" sound the same, and has been a long running joke

His presence in the doorway after a time didn't surprise you, and you felt your pulse quicken at the cockiness of his stance, leaning against the frame with his arms folded. A part of you hoped he would come and find you. It had been a while since you had any time together, too caught up in the duties you both assumed years ago when he built the town with his bare hands.  “Good book?” He asks, and there's something in the air between you; a tension you cannot place, and the heat in his eyes - you know what he is after.  You feel strangely nervous. You unconsciously clench your thighs together, too embarrassed to acknowledge the rising feeling.  “My favourite,” you say, airy, “but I'm finding it hard to read, today.” 

@cheshireizxpikeveil made a request that spiraled vaguely out of control and led to 24 pages and a whole-ass audio-version!

Pls enjoy.

(also I have an Irish accent so don't be alarmed I guess)

‘What do the Irish call stupid people?’

Already knew my Irish accent wasn’t built for technology but snapchats new VN to words transcript thing is sending me:

For context I was telling my friend I had a migraine and couldn’t afford to take any more time off and unfortunately I had a Monday meeting.

The fact this is arguably the most coherent part is sending me:

Okay so today I started out normal. Then after maybe an half an hour or a full hour I got stuck in an Australian accent. Which isn’t too out of the ordinary, because I have adhd and sometimes just get stuck in accents for a bit

After like maybe thirty minutes or less the Australian accent turned into an Irish one

Then I was stuck in an Irish accent for several hours. Very unusual, as that doesn’t happen a lot

Then for maybe thirty minutes or so I got my usual accent back (which is a mix of a few accents since I’m a military brat, but mostly American)

Then I got stuck in an Irish accent again. And now it’s one forty one at night and I’m still Irish

Gonna see if I’m Irish in the mornin’ or if I’ve gone back to normal

Author's Note:

This was intended to be a gentle intimate erotic, and while it IS that, it also has moments of desperate primal need. The feeling where my mouth can't leave your skin because even a moment feels like an eternity.

If you know some of my turn-ons, they are front and center in this audio and it drove me so crazy I was very sincerely begging for your release so that I could follow.

It IS romantic, but there is a very powerful sexual enerdree behind it I hope you'll enjoy as much as I did ;)

Amy Walker - 21 Accents

This video is over a decade old and I can't testify to the quality of her non-English speaking accents, but the differentiation of the UK ones, American ones, and the Australian vs. New Zealand ones is great. The little riff she does about the trans-Atlantic accent always gets me:

"Oh hello, my name is Amy Walker and I'm an actress and a writer and a singer and a dancer and I was asked here today to give you an example of the trans-Atlantic accent I was trained in in 1945."
