You're utterly wrong - an 'a' sound in Connemara and Kerry is still mostly pronounced like the letter E in the word Get.

[MrMrliamo]

is it true, that the reason that dubliners are nicknamed jackiens is coz they waved the union jack when the queen came to ireland many many years ago and they let down the irish nation? is this true?

[cotton009]

camo cat :O

[salthillairshow]

@teee2 It isn't being lazy it has more to do with the fact that English isn't our native language and it isn't so long ago that we were forced to use English. The English can't even speak their native language properly now they are lazy.

[IRISHFELLA2010]

@story46 I'm American and Bobo's accent is Irish.He has different influences in it but it is definitely Irish.Those of you who think he is trying to sound American don't take into account not only did he live in the US,his parents did also.Who influences a child's speech patterns more than his parents?

[Marydawgs]

@kieran621 HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA



[HayleyJ95]

It kinda looks like hes stroking him jumper :L

[FlipTheDish]

Tell your pussy to fuck off.

[story46]

i love the irony of an irish lad trying to speak like a yank and teaching the irish accent. DUDE, YOU SHOULD LIKE, TOTALLY, LIKE GO OUTSIDE FOR A WHILE AND TURN OFF YOUR TV FOR A DAY. As we irish like to say, you are a dope

[bobomcgraw]

@story46 That is the first time in a long time I have heard anyone being called a dope.

Hell, I haven't even used the word 'dope' in ages.

[story46]

@bobomcgraw thats because you have now chosen to speak with a false american accent. what would make such a boring, drone, uncharismatic, unlikable, witless person such as yourself, make such a video. Are you not happy with being the but of jokes in your personal life that you would decide to up it a notch. You miss represented the accent and neglected to use context. You are surely the last person to talk about the topic as it is clear from hearing you speak that you do your best to hide yours

[bobomcgraw]

@story46 Chosen?

I spent the first three years of my life in Chicago.

Is it ironic to launch a tirade of personal insults against someone you have never met and in so doing call that person unlikable?

Or is it just kind of stupid?

Misrepresented is one word, butt is spelt with two 't's and what do you mean THE accent?

[story46]

@bobomcgraw what you lack in charisma you make up for in grammatic impecability. My point is still, to me, a valid one. Living in a place till the age of three isn't enough to obtain the accent, I lived just outside Belfast till i was ten but i sound the same as the rest of clare now at the age of 23. YOUR accent is the one YOU choose to use and that is obvious to anybody Irish who watches the above video. It's not an american twang, it is a premeditated decision on your part, badly hidden :)

[bobomcgraw]

@story46 I lived in Chicago for three years, boarded in Tuam for five where I was surrounded by people from all over the country as well as some people from outside.

I lived in Dublin and Galway for two years and Dundalk for seven months.

The rest of the time has been spent in Mayo.

That kind of thing has an impact on an accent.

[BrandiGalore]

no....just............no

[WhoseRammer]

clown.... hows that u urish c87t

[mssextons]

What a load of shite.

[bmrdbgt]

awww kawaii kitty! I have one just like it. Doesn't want to leave me aloooooooone!

[spicyscarletpepper]

0:52 was hilarious! hahaha

[lexigreene1811]

you dont like ur kat

[arsenallover82]

miaowww lol

[darkrhawk]

what's with the cat? lol

[sarahtmouse]

Where the hell is he from? He's got the strangest accent I have ever heard. Is he even Irish???

[salthillairshow]

@sarahtmouse His accent is fake. I am Irish and I can tell you that this fake accent D4 its called is being used by people that are ashamed of their original Irish accent. I don't like it as we are losing our heritage. It is the same in America judging by the tv programs.

[Marydawgs]

@salthillairshow Nope.I have a real Bronx accent.Especially when I'm pissed off!I lived in Northern California and that effects my accent.But I am real Nooo Yawk.Lots of things effect accents.Where you live,go to school,family & close friends,ethnic background.There are many different New York accents.Depending on what part of the city you are from to what ethnic group you belong to.And we all influence each other!Very interesting.Accents are great.

[cattlewrangler]

@Marydawgs There is a big difference between fake accents we will call them cultivated accents and accents that develop naturally over hundreds of years. The exception is accents that are picked up like an Irish person living in the US for years and they end up with a US region accent.

[TheFlemingsgarage]

shut up u clown, r u obssed with our accent r somthing? and when u say country people, do u meen the rest of the countrys population that lives outside dublin? go stroke ur pussy lol

[bobomcgraw]

@TheFlemingsgarage Could you people please just spell the words correctly?

Is it too much to ask?

[Slaytounge]

@TheFlemingsgarage Wow are all you people pricks?

[lilmisssparra]

@TheFlemingsgarage 0:33 he is stroking it:) literally. haha

[eduk44]

@TheFlemingsgarage Actually, Irish accent is great - all of Irish accents are great as the country itself. And the country people are people with this kind of attitude,which you present. Peace, people! I'm not Irish, but I think all parts of Ireland are great - same with people there, so don't get too excited about Dublin people.

That's one of the things I don't get - why such hatered for Dublin?

[story46]

@eduk44 People in Dublin see themselves as charactors in Sex and the City and outsiders as kleetus from the Simpsons. But it's not hate and it goes both ways. it's an irish trait that we ''slag'' each other constantly. The closer a person is to you the more you take the piss out of them

[CusterFlux]

@TheFlemingsgarage you gonna share some of what you're drinking boy?, 'cause if you're keeping it all to yourself - you can keep your crap there too.

[ObbsesiveTwilighter]

@TheFlemingsgarage Here He's Obviously Just tryin to put it out there like , the way people in ireland speak anall - Cause incase youu havent noticed they all think we talk like leprauchauns like?' :L

Posh accent or not dont think any mad lad from dublin would make a video to show a common accent anyway so at leaast he tried like? :L

[bobomcgraw]

@ObbsesiveTwilighter The evil leprechaun and Chief O' Hara have a lot to answer for.

[ObbsesiveTwilighter]

@bobomcgraw So very true - i think?' :L

[bobomcgraw]

Star is an English word, so the pronunciation of the 'a' doesn't really apply there.

I'm talking about how the letter is pronounced in Irish words.

Another thing, I know people who pronounce words like bar with a short 'a', they pronounce the 'a' as it is in hat or cat.

You're right about the position of the letter 't' changing it is pronounced.

[bobomcgraw]

@bobomcgraw Changing the way it is pronounced.

[rgainsburg]

@bobomcgraw I don't understand - all the examples you give are of English words. How is star any more English than hat or hate??

[bobomcgraw]

@rgainsburg Do you speak Irish?

I imagine very few of the people who watched this video do, so why reference a language they don't speak?

I'm using English words because they're better known than Irish words.

[rgainsburg]

@bobomcgraw I imagine very few of the people who have watched the video understood you were talking about the pronunciation of vowels in the Irish language. If I speak of a French accent, or a German accent, and give examples with English words, it will almost certainly be interpreted as the accents of French or German people when they speak in English. Non?

Oiche mhaith.

[rgainsburg]

@bobomcgraw Also, There are three main regional dialects of Irish. In which one is "t" pronounced in the way you outlined? Where is "agat", "duit", "sliotar" pronounced with such a "t"? And what Irish speakers would pronounce "th" as you suggest? In which dialect, for example, is the "th" in "bothar", "athair" or "blaithin" pronounced with a dental plosive?

[bobomcgraw]

@rgainsburg That term is new to me.

I would pronounce agat with a soft t.

Duit, the t is pronounced like 'tch', like ditch.

I think I would pronounce sliotar as a hard t.

[bobomcgraw]

@bobomcgraw Why are we talking about pronunciation of Irish words?

I was talking about Irish pronunciation of English words.

In Irish th is generally pronounced as a h, so it must have proven awkward somewhere in the past when people starting speaking English.

This inability, in certain areas, to pronounce some letter combinations must have started somewhere.

[rgainsburg]

@bobomcgraw You say "why are we talking about the pronunciation of Irish words? I was talking about Irish pronunciation of English words."

Why??? Because a few comments ago, you said "Star is an English word, so the pronunciation of the 'a' doesn't really apply there. I'm talking about how the letter is pronounced in Irish words."

Rather confusing.

So, for clarity's sake, which are you talking about in your video: the Irish pronunciation of English words, or the pronunciation of Irish words?

[bobomcgraw]

@rgainsburg I'm talking about how the pronunciation of vowels in the Irish language has influenced the pronunciation of those vowels when speaking English.

I use English words as examples because the video is in English, the people watching understand English.

I don't think it would make much sense to reference words in a language nobody here speaks.

[rgainsburg]

The letter "a" is pronounced in many more ways than you stated: didn't you think of "star", "car", "far" etc? Also "fall", "draw", "awful", and so on? Not to mention its rendering as the reduced vowel in "woman", "adjust", "stomach".

The "t" is pronounced as you suggested only in word-final position as in "sweet", or in the middle as in "butter"; but never in word-initial position as in "time". Worth mentioning, perhaps?

[ShadeandAngel]

Hahaha limerick people cannot say the th's properly

[187BURNZY]

this guy looks like a serial killer

[LADYGAGAROCKIFIES]

AWWWW PUSSCAT :D

[Dominance000]
