i hate the cork city accent but i love the west cork accent. And they are totally different by the way. I can't stand the north dublin accent.

Look at these idiots who think there is only one Irish accent. I can only really distinguish the difference between Northern Ireland and the Republic but i am not so ignorant to think that there are only two.

Ballymun! North Dublin.

Belfast and Cork accents are nice on a girl.

dollymix (now geeky for a month)

Northside Dublin.....uurrrgghhh.... D4s have also sort of made up their own accent which is tiring and really gets on your nerves!

And also the fake made for TV ones....No one speaks like that lol!=]

Candra B you have much to learn.

I love them all! But I suppose the Kerry one can be a little tiring after a while, or a bit annoying.

The Derry accent really grates on me. I like any Irish accent that is quite soft.

Elaine And Manus

Posh Dublin accent....yuk

I find any Irish accent beautiful and musical

I think all the Irish regional accents are brilliant and I get great craic from trying to identify them when ear wigging in on conversations on the bus or train.
There is only one accent which irritates me and that has to be Southside Dublin. It's so false and effected, it makes me cringe.
I'm a northside Dub and can be pigeon holed the minute I open my mouth,but I don't care, I wouldn't try to change it ... ever.

Sshhhh! It's Podge and Rodge

Tom Cruise in Far and Away ta be sure!

The harsh,strident Belfast one, the Southern lilts are far more pleasant to hear.

It has to be the Meath accent, its too broad and it feels like it takes them an hour to finish a sentence. I'm also not too gone on the Derry accent as I find it hard to understand and without being a prude, I really don't like coarse city accents such as Limerick or North Dublin accents.

I like all the accents on the west coast from Donegal to Kerry!

North Dublin and Cork. They are both accents which make me shudder. The Accent where I live I think is one of the best - Galway.

Mick D

limerick city

Misty Blue

D4 West Brit.

Leaine Ni Loingsigh

wendylilly

Dublin either north or south, grates on the nerves!

Mark K-NI

Cork, and that whiney chav West Belfast one.

Caitlin

dixie

The Belfast one,its as rough as ropes, O, and not forgetting about Cork,, I.m from here but i think the Cork accent is terrible.

greenorlagh

Belfast accent. It's a real scrake.

I think the stronger the brogue the more I like it. The fake ones, or the wanna be's on TV I do not like. My Grandfather had a really soft brogue after he came to the states. I loved it.

Don't tell my boss I'm on here

I cannot abide the spidey West Belfast accent, where they say 'Wer' instead of with and 'Har' instead of how. GRRR!

I also can't stand the Shannon accent, it sounds really dopey.
