32 one for every county. Mad but true.
But then again different parts of counties have different accents, take south + north Dublin for example! Lol

Also to Sarah 'parts of Birmingham'???
Have you even ever met a person from Dublin??
Also you just insulted most of Ireland there, are you trying to get slapped??

.... and there are variations within a county too.

I can place some accents, eg. a strong Cork, Dublin, Limerick, Kerry, Louth, Donegal, derry accent etc.

There are far too many to name. Every county has its own but even areas are different. Like where i live in Dublin, my family in the city centre have a completely different accent, Finglas is different to that. Even the people in the next parish to mine have a different accent to the people in my parish., and they only live a 10 minute walk away.

i know

philip is right, but in fact each County has several accents!

In Derry they don't talk at all, they sing.

In Ballymena they sound like Australians

In Belfast they have a very harsh accent, and follow every sentence by "so I did" or "so it is"

In many parts of the North, they sound Scottish

In Donegal, you usually can't even tell if they are speaking English or Irish, and they say "Good man" all the time.

In parts of Dublin, they sound like they are from Liverpool or Birmingham, oh hang on a second, they are.

In Finglas they speak Polish or Latvian.

In the liberties they sound like Father Ted.

In Cork, they have a very different accent and every sentence ends "like" or "it is I suppose", and every sentence contains the 'f word' at least twice.

In Limerick, nobody speaks at all because they are too scared of pissing off a crimelord and taking a bullet or a knife.

In Tralee, they don't speak in normal language, everything is a parody laced with the phrase "what a gobshite thing to [think/do/say]

In north Armagh they sound like that gobshite Paisley

In South Armagh, nobody knows how they speak because nobody who has heard it has lived long enough to tell.

In Newtownards, it is hard to guage an accent because the only thing anyone ever says is "half a cram of smack please mate"

In East Belfast, you can't hear the girls [locally known as 'Millies'] speak at because the windchime effect of their 812 pairs of unfeasibly large earrings drowns it out, and you can't hear the boys ['Spides'] because they are revving the ar*e off their 30 year old crap car.
