The most IRISH place in the world that's not IRELAND!

[@robertscarola4517]

My Grandmother was from Newfound. She never stepped foot on Irish soil but had an Irish accent as thick as flipper stew !!!

[@fabulously695]

Was having this conversation the other day with a client of mine from Newfoundland, she doesn’t ever get asked where she’s from, she gets asked what part of Ireland 🤣, this was actually while she was living in Ireland, and even today in the south of England she still gets asked

[@floatahhh]

Because her blood is Irish. Newfoundland was settled by British people and Irish. It was also British territory for most of its existence.

[@Occident.]

Very interesting. Im from Tyneside, of Irish origin from both my parents. We Geordies have massive amounts of Irish origin, plus Scots too. We are Celts in the North East.

Newfoundland in most people’s eyes who live there aren’t Canadian. They are separate most of the history was under British rule since it was founded by British/Irish.

[@airmedh]

The south coast of Newfoundland is like this too. Newfoundland generally was isolated till about 100 years ago so the accent didn’t change much since the people arrived 300 years ago from southwest Ireland. I heard that Irish people came to Newfoundland some years ago scouting for people to work in their hospitality industry looking for people with an Irish accent. The cuisine, music in Newfoundland is all Irish or from 18th century southwest England.

[@yukongetit4603]

Here in Georgia we have a crazy Irish Language off the coast in Savanna. It's dying out but god damn it's such a beautiful language

[@grlfcgombeenhunter2897]

[@duffduff7938]

New Foundland as a whole has a distinct connection with Ireland. New Foundland even has a distinct name in irish, Tir na hÉisc, which means land of the fish. Most/all other countries have bastardised vorsions of the english name or something like this ie. france = an fhrainc, ireland = Erie etc. Allegedly it is reference to the abundant source of fish, irish salmon I think, which originate in New Foundland!! St. Brendan Albatross must have follow the migrating salmon from Cobh to Tir na hÉisc!!

[@BertieBrosnan]

Thank you for your input :)

[@Mr09DJ]

Yeah, I saw a program on tv with all the fish stock around the world & Irish fisherman in their 1000s looking for work in the early 1700's ?

[@grantmarshall3026]

There’s a few videos here of Fogo. There was a video from the mid 80s filmed for RTE where people from the fishing village met their Irish counterparts, the accent was the same! Lots of the lads from Newfoundland were steel men on high rise buildings too, a few pints after work then back to work in the morning, 100s of feet in the air. With a hangover! These boys fall, get hurt, but always make it back to work!

Fun fact - when I moved to Toronto from England I joined the rugby team over there, I hear different accents but being British there are accents that you can hear from a mile away, any British accent - so I asked this chap when did he move over from Ireland, turns out he has generations going way back in Newfoundland - probably couldn’t find a more canadian dude

Newfoundland is literally just land founded by Irish and Brits who went to Newfoundland to sell fish. So I would say Ireland is more irish since it’s the homeland, but Newfoundland is close second

The oldest Irish settlement outside Ireland definitely, not the most. Go to Irish neighborhoods in NYC you have people still coming from Ireland. The Irish have been there since like the 1830s but thats not all. Because of how bad nyc is getting we now have many full irish towns/cities in New York State that have Irish and American flags.

Have you noticed. Irish "settle" but the British "invade"? And this is the case whether or not the Irish "invite" that "invasion". You will also notice that there is no explanation as to why a village in Newfoundland is more Irish than anywhere in Ireland? Is that because after centuries of keeping themselves pure despite that 800.year British "invasion" that Ireland today under Irish rule for 100 years is now so invaded its hardly Ireland at all? These are questions not addressed in this rather banal video.
