Dialects Around The World

Northern Irish
The Northern Irish accent is very beautiful, and very strong too. The first thing you'll probably notice about Northern Irish is how many letters seem to have disappeared from words when people speak. For example, 'Northern Irish' would be pronounced more like 'Nor'n Ir'sh'!
Scottish
The Scottish dialect varies enormously from city to city, town to town, becoming more and more like the Irish accent in the Western Isles, and more and more like the Norse languages in the Northern Isles. The further away from the area, the stronger the accent seems to be, so it can be difficult to understand people from the Shetland Islands at first. And the 'Glaswegian' can be tricky too – even for the Scots themselves!
Brummie
If you come from Birmingham, you'll speak the Brummie dialect – like Ozzy Osbourne. He may have been living in Los Angeles for years, but he hasn't lost his accent – which shows how strong this dialect is. It's a very soft, springy, coarse sound!
Geordie
The people of Newcastle speak the Geordie dialect, and are also called 'Geordies'. One of the biggest differences between Geordie and RP is that the 'r's at the end of words are not pronounced, and tend to be pronounced as 'ah' instead. So a word like 'sugar' becomes 'sug-ah'. And a word like, say, 'Space Centre' becomes 'Space Cent-ah'!
