Is the Scottish accent the SEXIEST in the world?! 

Yes, Scottish and Irish accents are the sexiest. Glasgow or Edinburgh area, as well as Belfast and Derry..

A soft Irish accent like Saoirse Ronan or Melanie Murphy makes me weak every time I hear it.

Agree

I am here for the humor. Purple burglar alarm.

I like how the article breaks down all the different regions of England, but then claims that there is only one Scottish, only one Welsh and only one Northern Irish accent... I live in Wales and the people in the nearest town just four miles away have a very different accent to the people in my village. Incidentally, regarding the similarities between northern English and Scottish accents, it's always worth checking out Simon Roper's channel as a fascinating look on the development of the British languages over the last millennium.

Sexy is subjective, whether in beauty, sound or action. Trying to objectify the subjective is a futile process.

It’s my favourite for sure. I just sit here listening David Tennant on repeat lol

Scottish accent has always been my top fav. Iris and Aussie too.

#1 Northern Irish (Derry) #2 Scottish (Glasgow) Really, I'd be happy sitting on a bench anywhere north of 54.5* in the UK, just listening to people talk.

For me, it’s a close tie between Scottish and Southern (Southeast USA).

Depends what part of Scotland. A French guy once told me he was surprised how totally different my (Paisley) accent was from the Fife accent. Neither of those I’d say was particularly sexy, but a Hebridean accent perhaps. For me though, as many below have said, a southern Irish accent does it for me every time.

The top 5 sexiest accents in the world are: 1. Scotland 2. United States Southern accent 3. *end of list

Hey girl, I've been a subscriber to this channel for a long ass time. I agree with every single word you've said in this video (and all your previous ones lol). But i need to know how we got through this entire thing without mentioning the voice of David Tennant. He speaks BEAUTIFULLY in whatever accent he is using for an acting role, and his natural Scottish voice is the most soothing sound in existence. Have you ever listened to any audio book he has narrated?? Top notch, no contest, A++ work. Also, he is a decent human being! 🥰

Followed, fellow Scot, you’re bloody hilarious

For me, it’s less about “sexy” than about how listening to the sound of the words makes you feel. I have known several well spoken people that just grated on my ears. That being said, I have always loved Scottish and Irish accents, and here in the U.S. my Southern drawl along with Cajun twang are my favorites. They’re all related in my opinion anyway, because so many of us are of Scots-Irish descent. Love your videos, Erin!

I'd have to go with the Scottish accent, for sure, especially if she speaks the Gàidhlig. Particularly the region of Uist (north and south). 👌

In terms of the U.K...IMHO 1)Glaswegian, 2)Northern Wales, 3)Liverpool.(Scouse) 4)West Yorkshire. 5)Newcastle (Geordie) World-1)Scotland, 2)Republic of Ireland 3)Wales, 4)England, 5)France.

I loove Scottish accents, especially the Glaswegian accent but my fav in the UK has to be Yorkshire

I started watching your channel after seeing you on “wee Scottish lass” and I watched her videos because I wanted to hear a Scottish accent and watching “Brave” over and over wasn’t cutting it lol. I think it sounds great but not sure exactly why. Maybe it’s because it’s not just a simple form of communication but also a bit of a puzzle at the same time. You have to really listen because if a word comes across odd you have to have been listening in order to use comprehension skills to cypher out the meaning! Then your brain is like, ok we’ve got another set of sounds to look for that mean “this”. Maybe that’s it. You’ve found a way to get the opposite sex to actually listen lol AND if they don’t it’s obvious they just couldn’t understand lol, no pressure!

Scottish is by fair the best accent. Iv only heard in person a guy from Fife, I would pay a Scottish man to read me stories every night lol

I don’t know about sexiest accent but some of the accents on the Scottish islands are by far the loveliest accents I’ve ever heard ❤️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Glaswegian and Northern Irish.

Nr 1. Scottish (yeah, that´s the reason I came here, BUT, your content is the reason I stayed) Nr 2. Australian Shared nr 3. Finnish and Spanish, I know a lot of ppl thinks Finnish sounds hard and doesnt make any sense, but as a person with dyslexia, weirdly enough, I find Finnish to make most sense, and their melody...it´s hypnotizing :) (yeah, I´m married to one lol although he doesnt speak Finnish, I can talk circles around him even tho I´m Swedish ;) ) Scottish has that raw, yet comfy feeling about it, it truly is a beautiful accent, and it really gives you butterflies ;) Bobby had it to a point :) Australian has that laid back vibe to it. Spanish, to me, is pure passion :) and Finnish is all about the melody and spelling...

A great vid as usual. Scottish accents are amazing and I can believe what you said about how people need to like what thier partner sounds like for sure, deffinately a big part of attraction.

Thank you Erin, I have never heard if Camera obscurea before. It is now on my list for my next visit to Edinburgh.

I was in Schuh in Edinburgh looking at trainers. Nothing really fit well but the young lady assisting me was so helpful and accommodating. Her accent, however, made me melt. It was all I could do to prevent myself from walking out with an armload of ill-fitting shoes because of the mere sound of her voice. Yes, I heard others speak while in town but something about her tone, phrasing, etc. was different. Captivating is all I can say.

It really depends upon the region... and the social "class" of the speaker. The middle ground being most acceptable.

*Kelly McDonald sexiest Scottish accent ever.*

Now I'm living in Glasgow. I find it quite difficult to understand it, if it's the "authentic" Glaswegian accent. Most people in Glasgow don't speak the authentic one. So, the other day I found a vagabond begging for spare change, speaking in Glaswegian, and I hired him for half an hour to be taught his accent. He was very nice and the 20 pounds I payed to him were truly deserved. You should do the same.

Very interesting video! I admit I do like the sound of a Scottish accent. Can't say exactly why - just like how the letters are pronounced and come together. Also a west coast Irish accents, like around Galway sound really good too. Enjoyed this!

Coming from the Kerrs…it completely touches my soul !!💙🤍

Bobby's explanation is PERFECT!

Hey Erin! I'm watching from Brazil, I really love the neutrality of your accent. ❤️

Thank to Sean Connery and Daniel Craig.

Yes! I literally come to your channel just to hear you speak

I agree, i love the Scottish accent, im from northern ireland, and i cant get enough of the Scots

I really like the Scottish accent, the sound of the words flows great!

Scottish first (Canny betray the McClure surname)… but a mild Southern accent in America too. There are a ton of Southern accents too. But I’m talking about the ones heard in Savannah, Georgia and Jackson, Mississippi

To be honest I have always found Scottish accents to be very sexy and now it makes that even more true when the girl with the accent looks like you.

I'm a Geordie but I do find the Scottish accent very attractive

I am biased being a Scottish-Austrian-American but Scottish is the sexiest (Sean Connery, Butler, Erin, Punny Penny Mosco Moon, Grounds Keeper Willie, etc., etc., etc.,)

As a Scottish-American I love the sound of any of the accents that remind me of my ancestral homeland, but I have a special affinity for the more mellow, smooth Dumfries and Galloway, border dialect. Maybe it’s because that’s where my family’s from, but it always makes me feel great pride in my heritage and love for the culture. Alba gu brath!

still trying to find out my favourite accent, but recently i’ve been in love with the glaswegian and midlands accents

Erin is so emotive, who needs words...

We’re number one in the world at something yeaaaa 🙌. I love and am proud of our accent and it’s crazy how much it differs from regions in such a small country. I really like especially the falkirk/fife accent most

I’m Texan (mom) & Scottish (dad) . Lived both places. Dual nat’l. Auld yin the noo. Totally biased to girls with: US South-all varieties Scottish especially Ayrshire & Weegie Ireland especially soft rural accents. There are major familiar cultural aspects to them. Definitely worth mentioning: Mexican-American: They could write a book on flirting. Warning to young guys…good luck with the family. 🫣 London soft RP

Scottish is my number one favourite

Im American I love a lot of different accents I like your accent

If I met two identical women, and one had the Scots accent, the other woman would become invisible. I would be hypnotized. Unable to resist the charm of her accent

The Scottish accent is the sexiest, it is warm and wraps around the words. Some English accents are nice and some not so. The Northern Irish is the worst--pounds are ponds, just terrible. While the Southern Irish accent is much softer, you do hear enough of it when one lives there.

Being a person who subscribed to this channel and to Ralfy's channel even though I don't drink? Yes. Yes it is. I will always love the scottish brogue.

Beauty creep, what's your thoughts on the Australian ascent 😎

I was absolutely flabbergasted the times I went to Scotland and people kept complimenting me on my accent 😳🤔 (southeast Michigan U.S.A). I love the Scottish accent and relate to you when you say it makes you feel comfortable and 'at home'.. My mother is from Scotland and I never really notice her accent until someone else comments on it. Her younger sister (my aunt) is in Houston and has a half southern, half Scottish accent. It's awesome!!! I so enjoyed my Grandfather's visits, when he would come to the U.S. and no one could understand his highland accent lmao 🤣.

love your accent and red is really good color for you

Ok number 5: Yorkshire, UK Number 4: Australian accent Number 2: Latin American-Brazilian, Argentina Accent number 1 Scottish Accent- specifically West Dumbartonshire

I don’t like my scottish accent, I prefer the Dublin accent

It is to me!

I have to agree. Scottish is the sexiest accent.

I feel like I can take her seriously at some points in regards to vocabulary. Scottish women aren't really that much of a impending attraction in general, but I do love it when they tad well at tryin' to speak American, with the accent being strong and precise to acception.

When I’m down visiting my parents in Newcastle I get told they love it from girls if out in the clubs so to some I guess. My mate is from Ireland ( lives here ) and girls here in Scotland flock to him lol. I think it’s hard say what’s a sexy accent is, it’s personal choice but I love posh English southern

It is one of my favorite accents in the world, its a cute and pretty one too ❤

I don't wanna be creepy nor disrespectful, but YOU are the reason I love the Scottish accent. I thought it was funny yet interesting how I couldn't understand everything you said because you sound too different to my ears. (Now I can understand you because I never miss a video from you) 😉 I also love the Aussie and the Londoner accent. For me, when it comes to accents, the thicker the better! I just think it's beautiful how other people pronounce certain words in a different way than I do.

Glasgow accent definitely the best

I would say Scottish is the sexiest in the world. Because I don't know the different variations but have heard people from Glasgow speak I'm going to say that one specifically. I would follow that up with a British accent & third an Australian accent. And that dude is totally wrong. This lady loves Gerard Butler!

In general, most Americans love most British accents (including the Scottish accents) because it sounds like singing to them as compared to the bland and boring American accents. To most American men, most female Scottish accents will make their hearts melt. It just sounds like singing.

Ok, I'll admit it, I'm American but I have Siri on my phone set to an Australian accent. But if Scottish was an option I'd switch! I particularly like the Orcadian "Norn" accent. I wouldn't say it's sexy, but very intriguing.

I like a south African accent, female of course, like Yolanda visser.

A Scottish accent on a women is *chef's kiss* perfecto. I'm in the southern us so those are hard to come by lol

The sexiest is between Scottish and southern US. However there is also something extremely sexy about an Italian woman speaking English.

The answer is most definitely yes!

I like pretty much all Scottish accents. Edinburgh, Aberdeenshire, Hebridean…..cant chose. I you twist my arm, perhaps Lothian or there around. For Ireland i think ( probably ) around Ulster for Irish and Dublin and maybe Galway for English. For England possably Oxfordshire…especially really ”received”, posh accent ( Emma Watson ). Also, i adore Scouse and whatever accent ”Joyanima” here on youtube has. In their own languages i also find Duch, Portuguise ( Portugal, especially around Lisbon ) and Icelandic very sexy.

I do love to listen to Scottish and Irish accents, especially storytellers. But personally, my favourite is a rich French/ Canadian. It's probably just me, but here in Australia, we often get backpackers coming through, doing hard sells for charity groups. You get to hear a lot of different accents, and for me the Canadian accent with a hint of French is hands down the sexiest.

Beauty is in the ear of the beholder.

I’m a bi woman and LOVE Gerard Butler. He’s so man pretty!

I could listen to you all day

I would certainly rank Scottish as the FRIENDLIEST accent in the world. If you're outside Scotland (I live in the U.S.) and hear someone with a Scottish accent, you know that person will be fun to talk to and have interesting things to say. I don't know how Scottish people can stand to visit places like the U.S., does everyone continuously ask where they are from and how they are enjoying their trip?? LOL Australian accent has big friendly vibes as well. Would have guessed French for top pick of sexiest in the world, but apparently not.

I'm an Englishman but yeah I'd say for me personally the Scottish accent on a woman is perhaps the most sexiest. I was once smitten with a Woman who was from Edinburgh, her accent was one of the biggest reasons I liked her so much. Ever since then if I had to pick a female accent on my ideal Woman it would be a Scottish accent. Probably more Edinburgh than Glasgow but again it's Scottish so I'd still like it.

Yeah I totally agree that the Scottish Accent is way sexy and Amazing. My name is Conrad James Coutu from Brandon,Manitoba,Canada 🇨🇦. I really enjoy your RU-vid videos that you post. You do an Amazing job.

Scottish 100%

Well, simply put, "No". And I love everything Scottish. The way you speak makes everything you say believable, on the other hand. Perhaps, that's why it's great to listen to Scottish stories. Even the most trivial one sounds like the discovery of the meaning of life ;o)

Scottish and irish, yes, agree ☺️

I didn’t answer your poll because my answer is not a specific accent. I find most accents sexy, as long as it’s light. If someone’s accent is so strong that I don’t understand them, then I don’t find it sexy.

As a Canadian, I love the Scottish accent. Sexiest? I think so to! I also like the West Country one (which is where I was actually born - to a Scottish mom). As for which one in Scotland; I am afraid I don't know them well enough to say. Pretty much any though!

last weekend I was in London and I met these Scottish girls from Glasgow, and I realized I found the accent super sexy haha

I knew a scottish lady who married a georgia (usa) man and her scots brill with a southern draw would melt concrete

I do actually think the Scottish accent is the sexiest. My ex was from Dunfermline and I could just listen to her talk forever.

Oh absolutely Scottish is the hottest. Glasgow edges out Edinburgh. It's all very good though. I don't care about other accents outside this area. There is no contest in my opinion. Also here to talk about Gerard Butler. Please. I still google interviews so I can just look at him. The ones with Craig Ferguson, omg.

Ayrshire of course.( smile )

I certainly think so! I could spend the day listening to you (or any other bonny lass) read me a phone directory!

I don't exactly think any accent is "sexy" but I do like certain accents including my own lol (you have to admit its nice when people compliment your accent) and I find it interesting how different people can sound. I like studying accents and languages. What do you personally think of yours Erin? Do you like it or wish you sounded different?

Yes it is indeed.

I didn't know that accents or languages were sexy...it's just a mental image people create according to what is attractive to them

It is a very sexy accent. I actually just realized this, just now.

I've never given any thought to whether a Scottish accent is sexy. I'm just impressed hearing Scots people saying "squirrel". I've always assumed my ancestors moved from Scotland because U. S. English was easier to pronounce.

I'd have to say I think the Scottish and Russian accent is sexy!

Actually, the Scottish accent is anything but sexy!! I see a girl, I like, I love and then she says “Aye!” And me heart is broken!

I'm Scottish myself, but for me it's Yorkshire accents. The worst is Northern Irish, Liverpudlian or Brummie.

Yeah, I would have voted for the Scottish accent too, even if it had been a poll on any accent in the world. Russian is pretty high on the list too.

Short answer......Yes. 😍😍😍😍😍 (This.....from an American)
