THERE’S JUST something about an Irish accent.
Maybe it’s the sense of warmth it conveys or a feeling of roguish fun that accompanies that distinctive Irish brogue but whatever the reason, there are few accents that compare.
That might be why the Irish accent continues to rank among the sexiest on the planet.

It came in just behind the South African accent, which ranked second, with the New Zealand top of the pile as the world’s sexiest accent.
The Irish accent came in ahead of the Italian, which was ranked fourth with Spanish, French, Scottish, US Southern, Brazilian, Portuguese and Australian completing the top 10.
