Default The IRISH accent annoys me now!!!
Noirin has destroyed it for me. I always thought it was so sexy. and I use to like Noirin, but now, I cant even hear the accent without being annoyed, thanks to her.

I now associate that 'lilt' (is that what they call it?) but that dialect or accent now makes me think of selfish people who know they are just a little bit better than anyone else.

lilt???
When speaking English a 'lilt' is a sort of melodic way of pronouncing words and I most often hear it referring to the Irish way of speaking. The 'accent' or 'dialect' is more like a 'lilt'.
but,
Scots speak with a sort of 'brogue'. I don't really know what 'brogue' is but something online says its both a thick clunky square shoe,
and,
a thick chunky way of speaking english associated with Scots.

People say "The Irish have a lilt and the Scots have a brogue'.
[The Welsh speak with a 'shatner' and shout... each.. word.. like.. a.. chopping block.. ]

But don't ask me, Im Canadian so the only people I can clearly understand are the Irish. The rest of you are baffling my ears with your bizarre dialects.

the easiest way i know how to describe a lilt is that is melodic, lilting is a way of performing certain types of irish songs/ballads, you sort of sing but speak at the same time and there is a melody in the way you say it while a tin whistle is being played in the background

And for the record her accent is not a typical irish accent! I'm irish too
