Speak for Yersel Republic of Ireland

Do you pronounce the vowel in goose the same as the vowel in book, or different...?

Don't be a silly goose, let us know how you say both by taking the "Sounds About Right" survey on the Speak for Yersel site!

The weekend's almost here... What are ye doing for the weekend? Or should we be asking... What are youse doing tonight?

Do you use 'ye' or 'youse'? As the maps keep filling up, we're starting to see where people use one rather than the other!

Dancin' in the disco, bumper to bumper, wait a minute, where's me... [jumper/sweater/ganzy]?

Like Cork's own Sultans of Ping F.C. in their 1992 tune Where's Me Jumper?, most people use jumper rather than ganzy (from Irish geansaí).

Which do you use...? speakforyersel.ac.uk/roi

It's the Irish premiere of #Gladiator2 today, starring Kildare's own Paul Mescal!

But will you go to watch the film (the blue dots) or the filum (green)?

If you speak English with an Irish accent, tell us how you pronounce by taking the surveys at speakforyersel.ac.uk/roi

Where in Ireland do people use the word 'bazzer'...? If you've never heard of it before, maybe you've not spent enough time in Cork!

But is it used outside the county? Outside the city even? Help us find out by filling in the surveys!
