Scottish Accent vs Irish Accent – This Is So Funny
The Scottish accent is deep and broad.
The Irish accent? Light, lilting, and full of charm.
Both are unique — but when they collide, the result is pure comedy gold.
You’ll never hear everyday phrases the same way again.
Why Does This Always Make Us Laugh?
The Scottish accent is often described as rough and gruff.
The Irish accent is softer, more musical — like a conversation wrapped in a song.
No matter which one you prefer, you can’t help but smile when you hear them side by side.

@Erika Feeney Collins, we are said to have Irish dialect here in Newfoundland. Mine is supposed to be a pure wexford one. But the last few years I have been part of the Newfoundland and Irish connection. But before I used to go to places outside of here. People would talk in a lucky charms fella dialect to me and it never made sense to me lol. I don't call myself Irish, even though I am descended from there. The stupid accents that some people talked to me with outside of here used to drive me cracked. Even in Newfoundland the dialects are different from place to place and the Irish regions are different. Strangely I can match them to places in regions here. There is a big difference in places here that match regions there. I don't know how they are not distinguished.

This is so not funny. He hasn't a clue about the accents. And someone should tell him Cork is in the south of Ireland
