Do IRISH people like AMERICAN accents?

I've been in Ireland for about 2.5 months now and during my time here, I have acquired a taste for the Irish accent. I wonder how they feel about American accents?

For the record, this video was shot on St. Patricks Day so Happy St. Patricks Day!

The Irish and their accents are pretty universally loved in the US; even the Dublin accent which I always think is a yankee accent of some sort at first(I’m southern so I can’t differentiate the yankee accents as well as a yankee).

i’m american and the australian / irish accents are my favorite of all time. every single time i hear an irish accent, especially irl, it instantly boosts my mood lol. my maternal grandparents are from ireland so that could be a factor as well, but it’s nice to know they won’t find my american accent unbearable whenever i go there 😅

The Irish accent is fantastic. Especially the accents in the west of Ireland.

I'm from Midwest America and I swear the Irish accent is so attractive ❤

I'm from Alabama and my mom's got a weapons grade southern accent. You can hear her accent in space. We lived in Europe for several years and everywhere people would go apeshit over her accent. Really a bonding quality.

Idk why but its soooo much easier for me as an American to understand the Irish accent vs the English accent.

Love the Irish accent . Really enjoyed the video.

The American southern accent evolved from theScots/Irish who were the majority of the early settlers of European origin there. There were many other influences as well. There are differences within individual states as well.

Love the Irish accent but always have to turn on subtitles when watching Irish or Scottish television shows 😂

I served in Lebanon with the Irish Army, all the Lebanese in our area spoke English with Thick Irish Accents.

Well done James. Thanks for editing out my bad bits.

I have lived in the South, the Midwest, the Southwest, and the West Coast. Each with a distinct accent. I’ve also had quite a bit of vocal and diction training for the stage as an actor. I slip easily into the regional accent but not for long. I’ve also worked with people from all over the world so I find those accents very pleasing to the ear and easily understood.

My late husband (from upstate New York) had a gorgeous bass voice, smooth as silk. He could imitate an Irish accent, sometimes slipping into a Brogue well enough to be taken for a native. When we'd go out to music clubs, he'd go up to the bar and order us drinks and when he used the accent, I'd watch the ladies nearby. They would MELT... Take that as a hint, real Irishmen. Come to the States.

Why is the SoCal accent the one everyone thinks of?

I lived there for 3 months and woke up and everyone sounded American. It was crazy —
It’s a survival skill I guess. I was there for 8 yrs and my ear had adapted the whole time - it was bizarre.

It's always so funny meeting Americans and they say they don't have an accent. I've met countless!

[loveisreal]

I’m American (Brooklyn, NY). I absolutely love Irish accents♥️♥️♥️

Hahaha E’jeet one of the first things I remember hearing people say to eachother and “yer man” there’s a learning curve living there for sure 🤣
