i'd recant it even so, because the accents aren't heavy.... they're a curious mix, lyrical but with the odd edge i spose, and the vowels are fuckin evrywheah

there is a fairly big diff in the Cavan and Monaghan accent, feel like the Monaghan is more sing-songy and the Cavan is harsher in the NI fashion yet idiosyncratic and weird

donegal accent is very nice, love that place

who in terms of famous ppl has the platonic ideal of dublin accents
robbie keane seems pretty real
robbie's isn't really typical imo. a specific type.
shane lynch of boyzone the most famous person (in his day) to have a strong dublin accent.

besides like ronnie drew and stuff but that's a bit more classic.
there was none that seemed like it was supposed to be galway city so i did one bc it is not really a "connemara" accent even if it technically is, drowsy first thing drawl, faggy intonation:
They bought a kit to make beer She bought herself a new dress They walked into the trap There are a lot of people outside Jason wanted the Golden Fleece He cut the piece of twine There are four horses in the field They had a goat on their farm They didn’t have a good start in life I suppose they are happy now She’s learning how to dance They have a new water supply The rail track is overgrown You will have to run for the bus The whole floor is wet He used to strut about town It’s just his style She put on a brave face We took another path They realised the problem You should go soft on him They are the pride of the nation The choice was the right one The force of the wind increased The prison term was quite long They were eating out of the palm of her hand Put a comma after that word I think it’s time to go There are two of them here The rail track was overgrown There’s a gap in the field He was talking about his wife That wasn’t very fair It’s just his style He put his foot in it Spare a thought for your parents The price has gone up again The city is at the mouth of the river It’s near the modern station, down by the town square The film should start soon There’s a letter for you today Now breathe in slowly please She said she was coming My back is very sore lately He put his cap on She took her shoes off
i get thrown by "she put on a brave face on" bc i would naturally say "she put a brave face on her" which i guess is more distinctly west of ireland

As an Irishman abroad, the one that really jumps out (in that I'd forgotten that people say it and it produces a wince) is cyarr.

plax i could just about recognise as western
ftr i sent the link to someone from mayo and they also thought the kilkenny sample sounded quite western

oh yeah i have been all over the traveller fighting youtubes before
the bragging/challenge videos are more interesting than the actual fights which are resolutely amateur and lacking the frisson of the beautifully filmed 'brazilian bodybuilders vs knackers' cinema verité triumph of late last year
i like one with the topless dude whose complexion gives the suggestion that he has spent a lot of time sitting outside wearing a vest during the summertime
― Nilmar Honorato da Silva, Wednesday, 17 April 2013 14:27 (eleven years ago) link
xp yes, I was quite disappointed that none of the sentences featured the words "owl", "towel" or "however"
― susuwatari teenage riot (a passing spacecadet), Wednesday, 17 April 2013 14:29 (eleven years ago) link
that bodybuilders v "knackers" one is the birth of the "ah hey-ore, leevirou'! leevi fuckin ou'" meme, right? think i've seen it as polish bodybuilders.

I showed it to my brother and he was disgusted by me and i was ^2 delighted. He was a scrapper in his youth but is holier than thou about idiots getting kicked in the head these days

This video needs more love IMO so if nobody objects I'm just going to shoehorn it in for no reason other than the fact that it's Irish.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PhHW17OUbkY

Youth? He's a scrapper now.

Oh i'll enjoy the rest of that later aonghus. Is it carlow?
reminds me of a book of irish negative thinking strategy i was gonna write called 'feel the fear and cop yerself on wouldya'

Dayo u are biographically quizzically troublesome imo. I was only a scrapper insofar as defending.myself from a scrapper older brother, and the odd time the aul lady tbf. I never scrapped anyone else if they looked twice at me the brother'd oftentimes put them through a window and word gets around.

ay, so you were a scrapper

Nah but i'd plead a rueful guilty to having had a mouth on me

lol now i look at it, they didn't even bother with midlands- otm
I did the same list as plax. https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/50272574/recording1704.mp3
plax I picked as western by the consonants and the short As in words.
Drogheda accent has to be best in the whole country, no contest.
