Just what does Dublin sound sound like? In 2015, there\u2019s a wide range of accents classifiable as the Dublin accent depending on which part of the city or county you happen to be in. We know the ones which are the stuff of caricature and mimic but there\u2019s more to this than just\u00a0Ross O\u2019Carroll Kelly<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0Love\/Hate<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Over the years, the Dublin accent \u2013 as well as the city\u2019s slang, language and lexicon \u2013 has changed and morphed numerous times. Be it on the streets, the stage or the screen, what passes for what we hear around us in the the city in 2015 is a lot different to what it was 20 years ago or even in the rare aul\u2019 times.<\/p>\n

For this Banter, we\u2019re looking at how these changes happened, the influences on accents, the unique confluence of events which have made Dublin accents turn out the way they have, the effect of various geographical divides on the dialect and just what the city might sound like a few years from now.<\/p>\n
