    For what I understand the cork accent was very influential to many West Indian Caribbean accents.

      I actually met a man from a village between Cork and Kinsale a couple of days ago on my holiday. He told all these stories and I often thought, it sounds very Jamaican at times… So it really does, does it? I‘m German and I thought maybe that’s just me being ignorant…

      @@beanem.3989I am Jamaican and realized this a few years ago that the Cork accent is so close to how Jamaicans speak. The Irish were sent to Jamaica. They are of people in Jamaica with Irish last names. They are Germans in Jamaican also a place called German Town.

    I was born and raised in Newfoundland and when I travelled around England and Scotland, in my backpacker days, everyone was convinced I was from County Cork based on my accent. They thought I was pulling their leg when I'd say I'm Canadian and I am not faking my accent. Funny, I don't hear it that way haha 😁

    My mother has the thickest Cork accent ever. They're the only ones who pronounce th as in thing properly. It's also tonal, which fascinates me. She has a low voice though, not like the stereotype of high voices.

    Wow this is really intresting, I did my ancestry DNA a few years back and I knew there was always French (Hugonot) excuse the mispelling if it is spelt incorrectly blood in me and the DNA confirmed it and I always knew there was Irish blood in me too as my Irish ancestors are from Cork and Skibereen. Now what really intrests me is the fact I am 29 percent each of the irish and french, I didnt know the Irish and Hugonot was connected what he was saying they came over to Ireland now this makes alot of sense why I still have high percentage of both, even though my greatgrandfather was born in London he was concieved in Ireland so intresting, great video thank you for the info.

    I'm an American - I guess ya'll would call me a "Plastic Paddy" - my Dad's Grandparents came in a boat from Ireland, landed in NYC, made a new life. I'm a fiercely proud American of Irish heritage that has my family coming from Cork. ---- I say all this because, *every. Single. Person* in this video looks *exactly* what we think "Irish People" look like. There goes an Irish Gentlemen .... there goes an Old Irish Lady.... there goes an Irish Hipster In A Suit... There goes another Old Irish Guy... There goes a Regular Irish Guy... it's like watching a Documentary lol...

      No one has the right to call people plastic paddy's. I can't stand when I see people do it. You are Irish American and no one can take that away from you, it is your heritage and your identity, you are entitled to it. I did an irish language course last year and there were a number of Irish Americans on it, and it great to see them connect with their language and heritage. Is as Éireann tú.
