Differences in Irish English vs British English
-Prepositions:
Irish people use more prepositions. It’s anecdotal but my Dad always likes to reference the joke of a parent saying to their kid: “get out from behind that thing behind which you are currently stood”
-Tenses (To be or not to be after doing?)
Where a Brit has “just done something”, and Irishman will “after doing” it. For example, in his  1988 novel “The Commitments”, Roddy Doyle writes: “I'm after rememberin'. I forgot to bring mine back. It's under me bed.”  That is to say that character just remembered in that moment.
-Yes/No
For the Portuguese reader this may seem natural; in Ireland they are less likely to use yes or no. Instead they opt for using the verb again. Think: “Would you like a cup of tea?” “I would”. This may stem from the Irish language’s lack of the words yes and no.
-Religious influences in everyday speech:
Irish has been known to be “the most Catholic country in the world” so its like surprise that such phrases have entered into everyday vernacular:
Jesus, Mary, and Joseph, - This is used to expressed surprise 
Jesus H. Christ - This is used in anger, surprise, frustration or for humour (I would if Jesus has different initials internationally!)
-Individual bits of vocab
Press = Cupboard 
Hot press = Airing cupboard
Gas = Great
To give out = To tell off a child 
Yer man/yer wan = Any man/ woman that you’re referring to
Grand = Good/fine
Acting the maggot = Messing around or acting up
On the lash = Out drinking
Give it a lash= Give it a go
Now we’re suckin’ diesel = Now this is a phrase to mean something has started to go right
Effin’ and blindin’ = Swearing
Eejit = An insult for an idiot
I’ve been feeling homesick so here’s a list of differences between Irish English and British English inspired by my Irish da. Anyways go watch The Banshees of Inisherin -a good Irish film (pronounced fillum)

A Good Book and a Sturdy Desk
O0themilkybarkid0o · A Good Book and a Sturdy Desk
His presence in the doorway after a time didn't surprise you, and you felt your pulse quicken at the cockiness of his stance, leaning against the frame with his arms folded. A part of you hoped he would come and find you. It had been a while since you had any time together, too caught up in the duties you both assumed years ago when he built the town with his bare hands.  “Good book?” He asks, and there's something in the air between you; a tension you cannot place, and the heat in his eyes - you know what he is after.  You feel strangely nervous. You unconsciously clench your thighs together, too embarrassed to acknowledge the rising feeling.  “My favourite,” you say, airy, “but I'm finding it hard to read, today.” 
@cheshireizxpikeveil made a request that spiraled vaguely out of control and led to 24 pages and a whole-ass audio-version!
Pls enjoy.
(please note EXPLICIT fanfic, with named plus-sized AFAB reader/Halsin, themes of self-loathing and body issues)
(also I have an Irish accent so don't be alarmed I guess)

I may not really be able to read your mind, but your body has a LOT to say and love, I'm fluent in your body's language.

Author's Note:
This was intended to be a gentle intimate erotic, and while it IS that, it also has moments of desperate primal need. The feeling where my mouth can't leave your skin because even a moment feels like an eternity.
If you know some of my turn-ons, they are front and center in this audio and it drove me so crazy I was very sincerely begging for your release so that I could follow.
It IS romantic, but there is a very powerful sexual enerdree behind it I hope you'll enjoy as much as I did ;)

I included one of my favourite erotics "Arousal" in the suggesteds this week. Something about this audio reminded me of that and in case you wanted to explore this feeling a little more, that is a great place to join me.

Already knew my Irish accent wasn’t built for technology but snapchats new VN to words transcript thing is sending me:
Tumblr media
For context I was telling my friend I had a migraine and couldn’t afford to take any more time off and unfortunately I had a Monday meeting.
The fact this is arguably the most coherent part is sending me:

Okay so today I started out normal. Then after maybe an half an hour or a full hour I got stuck in an Australian accent. Which isn’t too out of the ordinary, because I have adhd and sometimes just get stuck in accents for a bit
After like maybe thirty minutes or less the Australian accent turned into an Irish one
Then I was stuck in an Irish accent for several hours. Very unusual, as that doesn’t happen a lot
Then for maybe thirty minutes or so I got my usual accent back (which is a mix of a few accents since I’m a military brat, but mostly American)
Then I got stuck in an Irish accent again. And now it’s one forty one at night and I’m still Irish
Gonna see if I’m Irish in the mornin’ or if I’ve gone back to normal

OHMYGOD!!!! Okay, hi, accent!Merlin anon here. That was absolutely BEAUTIFUL! And even better than I could've imagined! I mentioned the accent thing to my best friend (who got me hooked on Merlin) the other day and she was like "yo wtf?? Why wouldn't they do that??" So to know that other ppl think about it too is sooooo validating! I hope this gets enough traction bc I love your fics and would LOVE to see more of this!
(Referencing This Post)
WAHEY!! I'm glad you liked it anon! I've actually had that EXACT rough fic idea in my head for AGES!! It actually goes on a little further as well (Sis/friend shows up at training, asks if she can borrow Merlin, Arthur reluctantly says yes, the two of them do hand to hand, then dagger, sparring in front of everyone and though the sis/friend wins, Merlin is... scarily good. Also there would be bits about sis/friend using magic to remove all the bad joojoo from Morgana's head, because she's been brainwashed obviously, and the others coming to the conclusion that... huh... perhaps magic isn't so bad, if Merlin is completely ok with it (little do they know...).)
ANYWAY
Yeah. I love you anon, you read my mind.

Amy Walker - 21 Accents
This video is over a decade old and I can't testify to the quality of her non-English speaking accents, but the differentiation of the UK ones, American ones, and the Australian vs. New Zealand ones is great. The little riff she does about the trans-Atlantic accent always gets me:
"Oh hello, my name is Amy Walker and I'm an actress and a writer and a singer and a dancer and I was asked here today to give you an example of the trans-Atlantic accent I was trained in in 1945."

Anyone ever thought it be cool if the boys had a fifth brother but has a sexy Irish accent? I know it sounds weird but I can see that actually be a thing. Like have Mikey try the accent but fails at it, Leo feeling weird that having the only brother with an Irish accent would seem kinda out of place at times, Donnie being interested in knowing how his fifth brother got the accent in the first place, splinter being open of having a son with a different kind of accent would be nice for a change, and Raph just enjoying the company of his own brother drinking booze, and laughing at stupid conversations. What do you all think?
