Not at all surprised. I have lived in Labrador since my teens and when I went to N. Ireland with a friend (from Ontario) I understood everyone perfectly while she struggled. So this makes perfect sense to me.
Newfoundland ,PEI , Nova Scotia all down Easterns and on the same page but don't mess with Newfoundlanders they aren't afraid to stick up for whats right
I'm an Irish Newfoundlander, most of my ancestors were from the south, Waterford, Wexford, Kilkenny, but I have a couple that came from the North, Ulster, that settled in the Conception Bay area. But, I'm talking 200 years ago.

She simply liked the chicken and went from there. It happens when you're smitten. I've personally never cared for Mary Browns and grew up on the stuff more than 40 years ago, and also speak Irish.
Muff is a tiny village about a mile away from the Northern Ireland/ Republic of Ireland border on the Republic of Ireland side, and, joking aside, yes they do genuinely have a diving club, are aware of the connotations of using the obvious name and instead are known as the Foyle Diving Club, taking the name of the river on which Muff sits.
Apparently the population of Newfoundland was about 20,000 and 40,000 Irish arrived, they still have very Irish sounding accents. Edit: I am born and raised in Ireland.
I have heard Newfoundland described as "Ireland with Chevy pickups".

Honestly I'm surprised you're surprised
I grew up hearing all those words in PEI too - I've heard them from Cape Bretoners too.
It’s not just Irish either. It’s Gaelic, Scot’s use it as well.
I’m not sure why this is considered news I thought this stuff was well known😅
It’s not just Nfld that has this linguistic connection to N. Ireland (or ALL of Ireland). It’s all of Atlantic Canada.
Yes. I’m just leaving NB and I know these words because my dad grew up here. He’ll say “you’re gonna have the big feed” lol
And don't forget the Ottawa Valley.
It doesn't even come close to the accents and dialects in Newfoundland
Not really. The accent in Newfoundland is a thick Irish one. You dont find that anywhere else in Canada.
Wonder if any Northern Irelanders know about Screech? The answer will tell you all you need to know.
On our visit to Newfoundland last summer we made a point to drive the 'Irish Loop'.......
Newfie accents are far close to accents from the south of Ireland than Northern Ireland.
The most overlooked part of this news story is... that they get to enjoy Mary Brown's Chicken in Northern Ireland now.
We say the same words in New Zealand too, but always nice to see Sandy Reynaldo and Garrett Barry anyways.
Yep, that is correct..chur, bro
Those are terms used in all of Atlantic Canada - with a slightly different twang.
You can hear those words around Boston Massachusetts as well
this is super cool! lovely

The newfoundland Irish accents come from south east of Ireland, nothing to do with northern east of Ireland.
Newfoundland accent is so similar to a country wexford accent its bizarre.
It's like cousins suddenly realizing they are also siblings
The least surprising revelation in the field of language and dialect.
Newfoundland is the next parish West of Galway.
If we didn't know, it, yet again, shows that we don't learn much in school
Being a Lisburn person myself, I must go along and try some Canadian chicken next time at at the Leisureplex.
Same in Scotland too.
Same with Vancouver Island and Hawaii.
Yes and japan and Hawaii and Vancouver…
Welcome to Muff? 😂😂😂
You know yourself, definitely one I've used
“Ya knows yaself”
The irish that came to Newfoundland were from the south east rather than the north,though nevertheless there would still be a lot of similarity

Trust me. Put a Cork and a Belfast person in a room together and they would struggle to understand each other's accents.
Big Waterford connection
I use feed, racket and it’s a sin in southwestern Ontario too!

I have some that work for me out west and I still need to hire a translator to understand what they are saying.
you're working with irish lads not newfies lol
ethnic canadains are irish, english, scottish and french so why are you surpised?
FALSE, "ethnic" canadians are british not irish
Nope. Just French. You are referring to the Acadians.
@@jeycalc6877When Canada was founded, Irish was a type of British.
@@lifesimmercanada5401Newfoundland is the oldest settled part of Canada and has never been French.
@@spiritcrunch lol What? I literally live ON the French shore.
For the Irish it's the north of Ireland, Garrett, not "northern Ireland." We don't forget that the north was taken from Ireland.
Southern Ireland separated then complains that the north didn't leave with them. Boo hoo.
@@spiritcrunch someone gave you the wrong history lesson, lad
Ireland separated from england but have lived lick a suck calf off england since that time .
We use some of these words in Atlantic canada period

See how we are connected
1:28 "Muff"?!! That's the city name?!!
They have a world famous diving club that sells lifetime memberships

Back in the Rock Against Bush days the Evangelists, a punk band from the area released an album, “Muff Against Bush”😂
Cool.
Yes by sure das alright
Newfie from overseas has discovered a piece of Canadiana.
I am confused - doesn't everyone talk like that?
Ummmm... it was part of Ireland not 100 yrs ago..
So this is kinda obvious
Ummm no it was not sir😂😂😂
@@athomefitness3089Yes it was.
No it wasn't lol. I am a professional historian. We were a part of England once and on our own for a bit, but we were never ever part of Ireland.
@@lifesimmercanada5401 you are saying Northern Ireland was ‘never part of Ireland’? 😅
@@LeMerch no- we’re talking about Newfoundland genius🤦🏻♂️
Funny how they aren't reporting on the protesting of mass immigration in Ireland but they report on the most unimportant of topics.
What kind of useless story is this
Half the video is junk because it's just the guy talking.
Apparently the population of Newfoundland was about 20,000 and 40,000 Irish arrived, they still have very Irish sounding accents.
Edit: I am born and raised in Ireland.
The Newfoundland dictionary? Isn't it all blank pages?
Some books are so that mainlanders can read them.
@@johnbrowne2170 Even upside down.
@@johnbrowne2170 wicked burn 😂
Read a gd book
Well, DUH!! Slow ass news day.
