Language / Your perception of the Polish accent [145]

Well my Polish girlfriend has the most adoreable accent when speaking English...and of course having lived in Ireland (in the west around Galway, Ennis and Limerick) since she moved here 8 years ago she has picked up a number of colloquialisms and manners of speech from the region of the West of Ireland. The west of Ireland is basically the source of the world renowned Irish "brogue" accent....the very sing songy "arrah begorrah" made famous by Hollywood since John Waynes "The Quiet Man" and such. I come from Wexford in the South East and have a very flat neutral accent (which she loves because its very easy to understand). But I have to say...when she speaks it is amazingly cute...English with a soft Polish accent and then a few words enunciated in almost a Galway accent...slays me every time. Could listen to my sweetherat talk forever and never get tired of it. :o)
