There's a historical reason for the strong similarity between Irish and Jamaican accents. Look it up. Love those two islands. One is hot, one is cold, but both are full of beautiful, warm, soulful people ❤

This is intriguing cause as an American, when I try to do a Jamaican accent sometimes it sounds Irish, and when I do an Irish accent it comes out Jamaican. Don't ask me why or how - it just happens.

That because there a history between Ireland and Jamaica. Irish children were ship to Jamaica to work on the plantations when the British empire had slaves.

That because Irish children were sent to Jamaica to work on the plantations by the British. They naturally develop a similar accent.

@@i.i1215you say this bit the Irish were forced to do the agricultural work also... sugar cane, tobacco, and cotton. They also were forced into working as household servants. While others were forced into manual labour such as building houses/roads etc. The difference being that in America you had the shackles and whips. But both were often beaten and threatened with their lives, and taken against their will

Most if not all people of Monserrat have Gaelic/Irish last names and they are very connected to their Irish heritage. I said Gaelic because some people there use the Gaelic pronunciation of their names. The truth is that Oliver Cromwell sent most of the Bl*ck Irish people into 5lavery in the Caribbean. You can research this.

The Irish were slaves in Jamaica well before the Africans were kidnapped from their homes.

@pIaceholderhandle Ай бұрын

well thats not true at all. the first african slaves were brought to jamaica while the island was still under spanish rule in the early 17th century. irish labourers only began to arrive after the island became a british colony in the mid 1600s, and even then they were NOT slaves. they were indentured servants. indentured servitude was absolutely a horrifying and exploitative experience, but it was in no way comparable as an institution to the chattel slavery suffered by african slaves. stop spreading historical misinformation on the internet please.
