Yes, Scottish and Irish accents are the sexiest. Glasgow or Edinburgh area, as well as Belfast and Derry..
A soft Irish accent like Saoirse Ronan or Melanie Murphy makes me weak every time I hear it.
I am here for the humor. Purple burglar alarm.
Agree
I like how the article breaks down all the different regions of England, but then claims that there is only one Scottish, only one Welsh and only one Northern Irish accent... I live in Wales and the people in the nearest town just four miles away have a very different accent to the people in my village.
Incidentally, regarding the similarities between northern English and Scottish accents, it's always worth checking out Simon Roper's channel as a fascinating look on the development of the British languages over the last millennium.
Yeah very similar here! Even people's accents within towns vary. It's interesting.
precisely
Depends what part of Scotland. A French guy once told me he was surprised how totally different my (Paisley) accent was from the Fife accent. Neither of those I’d say was particularly sexy, but a Hebridean accent perhaps. For me though, as many below have said, a southern Irish accent does it for me every time.
Sexy is subjective, whether in beauty, sound or action. Trying to objectify the subjective is a futile process.
Scottish accent has always been my top fav. Iris and Aussie too.
It’s my favourite for sure. I just sit here listening David Tennant on repeat lol
For me, it’s less about “sexy” than about how listening to the sound of the words makes you feel. I have known several well spoken people that just grated on my ears. That being said, I have always loved Scottish and Irish accents, and here in the U.S. my Southern drawl along with Cajun twang are my favorites. They’re all related in my opinion anyway, because so many of us are of Scots-Irish descent. Love your videos, Erin!
Hey girl, I've been a subscriber to this channel for a long ass time. I agree with every single word you've said in this video (and all your previous ones lol). But i need to know how we got through this entire thing without mentioning the voice of David Tennant. He speaks BEAUTIFULLY in whatever accent he is using for an acting role, and his natural Scottish voice is the most soothing sound in existence. Have you ever listened to any audio book he has narrated?? Top notch, no contest, A++ work. Also, he is a decent human being! 🥰
David Tennant is the best.
Appreciate you being a long time subscriber 😂
Personally (although it's probably the same for lots of Scottish people), I don't look at David Tennants voice as being like 😍 wow. Obviously he's a very talented man, but I'm just so used to hearing Scottish accents all day everyday that it's not something unique to me (even though I love them).
@@ErinsHoose okay, that's fair and actually makes a lot of sense lol 😅
I started watching your channel after seeing you on “wee Scottish lass” and I watched her videos because I wanted to hear a Scottish accent and watching “Brave” over and over wasn’t cutting it lol.
I think it sounds great but not sure exactly why. Maybe it’s because it’s not just a simple form of communication but also a bit of a puzzle at the same time. You have to really listen because if a word comes across odd you have to have been listening in order to use comprehension skills to cypher out the meaning! Then your brain is like, ok we’ve got another set of sounds to look for that mean “this”. Maybe that’s it. You’ve found a way to get the opposite sex to actually listen lol AND if they don’t it’s obvious they just couldn’t understand lol, no pressure!
For me, it’s a close tie between Scottish and Southern (Southeast USA).
Followed, fellow Scot, you’re bloody hilarious
Nr 1. Scottish (yeah, that´s the reason I came here, BUT, your content is the reason I stayed)
Nr 2. Australian
Shared nr 3. Finnish and Spanish, I know a lot of ppl thinks Finnish sounds hard and doesnt make any sense, but as a person with dyslexia, weirdly enough, I find Finnish to make most sense, and their melody...it´s hypnotizing :) (yeah, I´m married to one lol although he doesnt speak Finnish, I can talk circles around him even tho I´m Swedish ;) )
Scottish has that raw, yet comfy feeling about it, it truly is a beautiful accent, and it really gives you butterflies ;) Bobby had it to a point :)
Australian has that laid back vibe to it.
Spanish, to me, is pure passion :) and Finnish is all about the melody and spelling...
#1 Northern Irish (Derry)
#2 Scottish (Glasgow)
Really, I'd be happy sitting on a bench anywhere north of 54.5* in the UK, just listening to people talk.
We've been watching S4 of The Great Pottery Throwdown (we watch a *lot* of UK TV), and Jodie Neale's Rhondda Valley accent is amazing. I've never heard anything like it, totally new accent for me, can't get enough. Had to come back here to comment again. :)

Thank you Erin, I have never heard if Camera obscurea before. It is now on my list for my next visit to Edinburgh.
The top 5 sexiest accents in the world are:
1. Scotland
2. United States Southern accent
3. *end of list
and the Southern accent is Scottish because the Celts (Scot, Irish, Welsh, Cornish) migrated to the Southern states. The english anglo-saxons migrated to the eastern states; hence the section New England.
Bobby's explanation is PERFECT!
ISN'T IT?
I don’t know about sexiest accent but some of the accents on the Scottish islands are by far the loveliest accents I’ve ever heard ❤️🏴
I'd have to go with the Scottish accent, for sure, especially if she speaks the Gàidhlig. Particularly the region of Uist (north and south). 👌
Very interesting video! I admit I do like the sound of a Scottish accent. Can't say exactly why - just like how the letters are pronounced and come together. Also a west coast Irish accents, like around Galway sound really good too. Enjoyed this!
Thanks Zen!
A great vid as usual. Scottish accents are amazing and I can believe what you said about how people need to like what thier partner sounds like for sure, deffinately a big part of attraction.
Thank you!
I was in Schuh in Edinburgh looking at trainers. Nothing really fit well but the young lady assisting me was so helpful and accommodating. Her accent, however, made me melt. It was all I could do to prevent myself from walking out with an armload of ill-fitting shoes because of the mere sound of her voice. Yes, I heard others speak while in town but something about her tone, phrasing, etc. was different. Captivating is all I can say.
I loove Scottish accents, especially the Glaswegian accent but my fav in the UK has to be Yorkshire
Now I'm living in Glasgow. I find it quite difficult to understand it, if it's the "authentic" Glaswegian accent. Most people in Glasgow don't speak the authentic one. So, the other day I found a vagabond begging for spare change, speaking in Glaswegian, and I hired him for half an hour to be taught his accent. He was very nice and the 20 pounds I payed to him were truly deserved. You should do the same.
Yes! I literally come to your channel just to hear you speak
Hey Erin! I'm watching from Brazil, I really love the neutrality of your accent. ❤️
In terms of the U.K...IMHO 1)Glaswegian, 2)Northern Wales, 3)Liverpool.(Scouse) 4)West Yorkshire. 5)Newcastle (Geordie)
World-1)Scotland, 2)Republic of Ireland 3)Wales, 4)England, 5)France.
Glaswegian and Northern Irish.
*Kelly McDonald sexiest Scottish accent ever.*
It really depends upon the region... and the social "class" of the speaker.
The middle ground being most acceptable.
😬 I don't think the focus should be on class and whether or not someone's accent is acceptable based on their class level
@@ErinsHoose
Well, the reality is that it is just how it is.
Nobody likes the sound of a schemie nor indeed the affected english of the "posh" Scots.
Except of course, themselves.
Have you ever found the sound of a wee ned to be either sexy or romantic?
@@stooshiemax1756 I don't really know what to say to that? I don't think you'd approve of where I grew up then lol. Someone's accent doesn't necessarily relate to their class level? I know plenty of people who talk like what you (you personally, not everyone) would class as a 'schemie' but they're not from a scheme (there's also nothing wrong with living in a scheme) and they aren't 'lower class'. Which again, that's nothing to be ashamed of.
@@ErinsHoose
Well, I think you know exactly what I am talking about.
It is not the scheme so much as the attitude, and I made no mention of being "ashamed".
That came from you.
But as I asked before "Have you ever found the sound of a wee ned to be either sexy or romantic?"
Diversity rarely extends to what we find sexy.
And there is no need to be apologetic or embarrassed to be honest about it.
I'm a Geordie but I do find the Scottish accent very attractive
We’re number one in the world at something yeaaaa 🙌. I love and am proud of our accent and it’s crazy how much it differs from regions in such a small country. I really like especially the falkirk/fife accent most
Scottish is by fair the best accent. Iv only heard in person a guy from Fife, I would pay a Scottish man to read me stories every night lol
Coming from the Kerrs…it completely touches my soul !!💙🤍
Erin is so emotive, who needs words...
Beauty creep, what's your thoughts on the Australian ascent 😎
still trying to find out my favourite accent, but recently i’ve been in love with the glaswegian and midlands accents
I am biased being a Scottish-Austrian-American but Scottish is the sexiest (Sean Connery, Butler, Erin, Punny Penny Mosco Moon, Grounds Keeper Willie, etc., etc., etc.,)
Grounds Keeper Willie 😂😂 love it
The Scottish accent is the sexiest, it is warm and wraps around the words. Some English accents are nice and some not so. The Northern Irish is the worst--pounds are ponds, just terrible. While the Southern Irish accent is much softer, you do hear enough of it when one lives there.
I really like the Scottish accent, the sound of the words flows great!
love your accent and red is really good color for you
Scottish first (Canny betray the McClure surname)… but a mild Southern accent in America too. There are a ton of Southern accents too. But I’m talking about the ones heard in Savannah, Georgia and Jackson, Mississippi
Texas as well. I'm from Inverness. I married a Texan.
I agree, i love the Scottish accent, im from northern ireland, and i cant get enough of the Scots
It is to me!
If I met two identical women, and one had the Scots accent, the other woman would become invisible. I would be hypnotized. Unable to resist the charm of her accent
I was absolutely flabbergasted the times I went to Scotland and people kept complimenting me on my accent 😳🤔 (southeast Michigan U.S.A). I love the Scottish accent and relate to you when you say it makes you feel comfortable and 'at home'..
My mother is from Scotland and I never really notice her accent until someone else comments on it. Her younger sister (my aunt) is in Houston and has a half southern, half Scottish accent. It's awesome!!!
I so enjoyed my Grandfather's visits, when he would come to the U.S. and no one could understand his highland accent lmao 🤣.
I’m Texan (mom) & Scottish (dad) . Lived both places. Dual nat’l. Auld yin the noo.
Totally biased to girls with:
US South-all varieties
Scottish especially Ayrshire & Weegie
Ireland especially soft rural accents.
There are major familiar cultural aspects to them.
Definitely worth mentioning:
Mexican-American: They could write a book on flirting. Warning to young guys…good luck with the family. 🫣
London soft RP
I could listen to you all day
I feel like I can take her seriously at some points in regards to vocabulary. Scottish women aren't really that much of a impending attraction in general, but I do love it when they tad well at tryin' to speak American, with the accent being strong and precise to acception.
Okay.
Glasgow accent definitely the best
Thank to Sean Connery and Daniel Craig.
Im American I love a lot of different accents I like your accent
If you want to hear my accent I’m on tic tock lol
As a Scottish-American I love the sound of any of the accents that remind me of my ancestral homeland, but I have a special affinity for the more mellow, smooth Dumfries and Galloway, border dialect. Maybe it’s because that’s where my family’s from, but it always makes me feel great pride in my heritage and love for the culture. Alba gu brath!
I have to agree. Scottish is the sexiest accent.
Being a person who subscribed to this channel and to Ralfy's channel even though I don't drink?
Yes. Yes it is. I will always love the scottish brogue.
Tbf I don't mainly make videos about alcohol :p
@@ErinsHoose
Lol, sorry. ralfydotcom, completely different channel, a man in a basement going on about whiskey. I come to you for the interesting scottish stories, and, well, the accent. :)
Ok, I'll admit it, I'm American but I have Siri on my phone set to an Australian accent. But if Scottish was an option I'd switch! I particularly like the Orcadian "Norn" accent. I wouldn't say it's sexy, but very intriguing.
Yes!
Scottish is my number one favourite
I like a south African accent, female of course, like Yolanda visser.
The answer is most definitely yes!
In general, most Americans love most British accents (including the Scottish accents) because it sounds like singing to them as compared to the bland and boring American accents.
To most American men, most female Scottish accents will make their hearts melt. It just sounds like singing.
I love the edinbrrra accent😻😻😻
I would say Scottish is the sexiest in the world. Because I don't know the different variations but have heard people from Glasgow speak I'm going to say that one specifically. I would follow that up with a British accent & third an Australian accent.
And that dude is totally wrong. This lady loves Gerard Butler!
It is one of my favorite accents in the world, its a cute and pretty one too ❤
When I’m down visiting my parents in Newcastle I get told they love it from girls if out in the clubs so to some I guess. My mate is from Ireland ( lives here ) and girls here in Scotland flock to him lol.
I think it’s hard say what’s a sexy accent is, it’s personal choice but I love posh English southern
A Scottish accent on a women is *chef's kiss* perfecto. I'm in the southern us so those are hard to come by lol
Beauty is in the ear of the beholder.
I'm an Englishman but yeah I'd say for me personally the Scottish accent on a woman is perhaps the most sexiest. I was once smitten with a Woman who was from Edinburgh, her accent was one of the biggest reasons I liked her so much. Ever since then if I had to pick a female accent on my ideal Woman it would be a Scottish accent. Probably more Edinburgh than Glasgow but again it's Scottish so I'd still like it.
Ok number 5: Yorkshire, UK Number 4: Australian accent
Number 2: Latin American-Brazilian, Argentina
Accent
number 1 Scottish Accent- specifically West Dumbartonshire
I don't exactly think any accent is "sexy" but I do like certain accents including my own lol (you have to admit its nice when people compliment your accent) and I find it interesting how different people can sound. I like studying accents and languages. What do you personally think of yours Erin? Do you like it or wish you sounded different?
Agreed! I don't mind my accent. I quite like it?
I’m a bi woman and LOVE Gerard Butler. He’s so man pretty!
I don't wanna be creepy nor disrespectful, but YOU are the reason I love the Scottish accent. I thought it was funny yet interesting how I couldn't understand everything you said because you sound too different to my ears. (Now I can understand you because I never miss a video from you) 😉
I also love the Aussie and the Londoner accent. For me, when it comes to accents, the thicker the better! I just think it's beautiful how other people pronounce certain words in a different way than I do.
I'm glad it's easier to understand now! Agreed, love a thick accent.
Ayrshire of course.( smile )
I do love to listen to Scottish and Irish accents, especially storytellers. But personally, my favourite is a rich French/ Canadian. It's probably just me, but here in Australia, we often get backpackers coming through, doing hard sells for charity groups. You get to hear a lot of different accents, and for me the Canadian accent with a hint of French is hands down the sexiest.
Hell yeah
I didn’t answer your poll because my answer is not a specific accent. I find most accents sexy, as long as it’s light. If someone’s accent is so strong that I don’t understand them, then I don’t find it sexy.
I certainly think so! I could spend the day listening to you (or any other bonny lass) read me a phone directory!
Well, simply put, "No". And I love everything Scottish. The way you speak makes everything you say believable, on the other hand. Perhaps, that's why it's great to listen to Scottish stories. Even the most trivial one sounds like the discovery of the meaning of life ;o)
🦻 I can hear you

I would certainly rank Scottish as the FRIENDLIEST accent in the world. If you're outside Scotland (I live in the U.S.) and hear someone with a Scottish accent, you know that person will be fun to talk to and have interesting things to say. I don't know how Scottish people can stand to visit places like the U.S., does everyone continuously ask where they are from and how they are enjoying their trip?? LOL Australian accent has big friendly vibes as well.
Would have guessed French for top pick of sexiest in the world, but apparently not.
i live in sweden but i see that alot of people like to ask alot of things to my dad becous he is frome Scotland isle of Lewis in Stornoway but i think alot of Swedish people like Scotland becous of the Movies like Outlander and Brave heart
I’ll be there soon
I like pretty much all Scottish accents.
Edinburgh, Aberdeenshire, Hebridean…..cant chose.
I you twist my arm, perhaps Lothian or there around.
For Ireland i think ( probably ) around Ulster for Irish and Dublin and maybe Galway for English.
For England possably Oxfordshire…especially really ”received”, posh accent ( Emma Watson ).
Also, i adore Scouse and whatever accent ”Joyanima” here on youtube has.
In their own languages i also find Duch, Portuguise ( Portugal, especially around Lisbon ) and Icelandic very sexy.
I knew a scottish lady who married a georgia (usa) man and her scots brill with a southern draw would melt concrete
Yes it is indeed.
I don’t like my scottish accent, I prefer the Dublin accent
Scottish 100%
Scottish and irish, yes, agree ☺️
One thing is for certain, there is no accent, in the entire world, that makes angry rants 1000% more entertaining to listen to, than a Scottish accent.
Oh it is 😁❤️🏴❤️
To be honest I have always found Scottish accents to be very sexy and now it makes that even more true when the girl with the accent looks like you.
Oh absolutely Scottish is the hottest. Glasgow edges out Edinburgh. It's all very good though. I don't care about other accents outside this area. There is no contest in my opinion.
Also here to talk about Gerard Butler. Please. I still google interviews so I can just look at him. The ones with Craig Ferguson, omg.
It is a very sexy accent. I actually just realized this, just now.
Yeah I totally agree that the Scottish Accent is way sexy and Amazing. My name is Conrad James Coutu from Brandon,Manitoba,Canada 🇨🇦. I really enjoy your UA-cam videos that you post. You do an Amazing job.
As a Canadian, I love the Scottish accent. Sexiest? I think so to! I also like the West Country one (which is where I was actually born - to a Scottish mom). As for which one in Scotland; I am afraid I don't know them well enough to say. Pretty much any though!
Strange world wow
Yeah, I would have voted for the Scottish accent too, even if it had been a poll on any accent in the world. Russian is pretty high on the list too.
