Bad IRISH ACCENTS That Even I Can't Understand

Irish accents are beautiful and diverse but sometimes they reach the comical levels of a cartoon and I can't even understand them.

[@jubuttib]

There have been some interesting studies done on the subject of speed of speech vs. speed of information transfer, and interestingly, IIRC at least, while there are big differences in how fast people talk on average in different languages, the rate of information transfer is more or less the same. I.e. In languages where people often talk faster (IIRC Italian being one) there are more words taking up space without actually doing any real work transferring information. One study tried to equate the same sentences in different languages to actual data transfer rates, and came to the conclusion that (at least among the 14-17 languages tested in the study) all of them gravitated towards an average of just under 40 bits per second. So if you have a natural tendency to talk very quickly, you might find yourself happier learning a language that's inherently fast paced. =)

@@danscott3880 You ain't wrong. I read an article a while back where he talked about his accent. Basically said it was a combination of listening to a lot of people who were still learning English, including his parents, so he just talked with the same halting rhythm they all had when they were thinking of what English word to use. Add him basically doing the impossible and picking up a Queens Accent later on, and you got a Christopher Walken

[@aarontrueblood9731]

@•Skeebsy Zeebzy• lol I'll try to summarize: Walken grew up around a lot of immigrants learning English, so he developed that halting rhythm of speech from them. Then, he developed a Queen's accent as he got older (developing a new accent in general is almost impossible) and bada bing, bada bang, the Christopher Walken accent
