I'm particularly fond of weird dialects that make little sense, like cockney or the french "verl'ans" where they flip words around.
Also I'm missing the afrikaans option. It sounds like real funky children speaking a blend of dutch and english.
Yes I also like languages -snip
Yeah well That's kinda what I meant. I got some distant relatives there and a general interest in the language. Guessing you're from Holland, you probably heard of Die Antwoord? Silly, but fun...

12 months ago I would have said IRISH!!!! But after I moved to Oregon, and got a wonderful North-west boyfriend, I'd say that that is the most attractive :)

There is no such thing as a British accents since Britain contains England, Scotland and Wales with varying accents per region and group.

British because that comprises of Scottish, Irish, Welsh and English along with the variation across each of these countries P:
WRONG! I'm sorry but no.

British does NOT include Ireland, can people please stop being so ignorant about it?

Also, there is no "Southern Ireland". It's Northern Ireland and The Republic of Ireland.

Fuck sake.

OT: Yeah, I quite like the accents we've got in The Republic of Ireland... At least, most of them.

I voted Irish because I think that sounds great on both guys and gals. The cockney accent is my all time favourite for just males though. So tough!

Right I voted English but I would not mean something like cockney or anything. I just love listening to Stephen Fry or Hugh Laurie in interviews or whatever. It sounds so smooth and sofisticated. Also Russian does sound badass.

I'm shocked at how many people said Irish and I don't know how they could have. Most Irish accents are horrible. Dublin especially. Maybe Cork or Cavan. Also so no one starts complaining I live in Ireland and have lived all over the country so I know what I'm talking about.

Irish.
They can say "water" unlike the English, while being able to pronounce the "t" unlike the Americans.
OR maybe I'm thinking about asian irish accent.
