    Just a small point but the Tipperary accent is not like the Cork and Kerry accent. Cork and Kerry accents are very sing-song type accents.

    This is a Tipperary accent. Tipperary is not located in south western Ireland it is more on the Central plain but part of Munster.



    Here's a Cork accent. It always reminds me a bit of a Welsh accent as well.



    The Newfoundland accent is supposed to be similar to the Waterford accent. The lady in this is actually from Newfoundland and just sounds Irish to me. All the people in this are in Newfoundland and this is the strongest connection of any place outside of Ireland to Ireland that I've heard.

    anyone that knows about.

    It can be guessed they use another language, but not through their spanish.

    Dominicanese pronounce spanish on their way, and that doesn't mean it is their second language.

    Castilian-Spanish accent from the Buenos Aires province, in Argentina, is very similar to the Castilian-Spanish spoken in Uruguay (mainly its southern part, where Montevideo, its capital is located). The only difference between them are some few slang words, and the way of using them.

    Castilian-Spanish accent as spoken in the Venezuelan Andes (states of Trujillo, Merida and Tachira) is somewhat similar to the Castilian-Spanish spoken in the Colombian departments of Santander and Norte de Santander (bordering Venezuela).

    There are also some differences between the Venezuelan states of Trujillo, Merida and Tachira, though (sub accents within the Andean Venezuelan accent), being the accent from Tachira state the one with the closest similarity to the Colombian accents from Santander and Norte de Santander.
