Hi Robert, just subscribed. I think I have this issue nailed. It's entirely the position of your tongue during your pronunciation. Being a self-elocuted "sassenach" with an old school beeb-beeb-ceeb accent, I pronounce purple as _"perple"_ and burglar as _"bergler"._ My pronunciation employs a relatively flat tongue whereas yours, accentuating the depth of the "u" requires a substantial "dishing" of the tongue, by which I mean that you are lowering the central portion of your tongue whilst raising the peripheries. Simplistically, you're asking your poor tongue to perform some pretty Olympian gymnastics - my own attempts to emulate your vowel usage results in a similar oral catastrophe. My advice would be to stick to the more colloquially acceptable: "Yen noisy kant!" in order to avoid further confusion. 😛

Hehehehehhe funny. At least I went to sleep with a smile. Have a happy day!

We have an office manager called Carol and a production manager called Carl, but we had to change Carls name to Ted because every time our Glaswegian boss rings and asks for Carl he gets put through to Carol.

Aye, we don't have many men/boys named Karl here, probably for that reason! :)

It's hilariously cute. ❤ I'm from Texas and have been trying to learn Gaelic and I am nowhere near as precious when I butcher a word. 😂

Brilliant. The expression at the end left me in tears 😂😂

For Americans and Canadians, try saying "Irish Wristwatch" without slowing it down or pausing between syllables or the words. It can't be done!

Oof that's a hard one. It's the "sh" part of Irish that throws us off.

Okay, that *is* a tough one. It keeps ending up as "Irish Wistwatch"

I may be an American but I really liked his show and continue to follow him years later. Limmy’s show was on the American version of Netflix for a while, but I’m pretty sure it’s gone now. Edit: I didn’t have that much trouble understanding the show and had to act as a “translator” to my fellow Americans. Edit2: I love the Limmy style humor in this vid lol, you sure are a fan from the look of it!

When I read the title, I didn't think the problem would be on "alarm".

The look in his eyes after the first attempt when he realises this might be harder than he first thought

This made me belly laugh!😂

It may just be a sign of me getting old, but i genuinely nearly pissed myself watching Limmys vid n this 1 back2back!!!

I met Limmy after one of his shows at the Edinburgh Comedy Festival, and he is top lad! Real gent!

@@WindsweptRobert Yeah, I got used to it. I worked at a factory that made doors and windows and they sold soda and beer on our breaks and at lunch, which I thought was a bit dangerous. Ever seen a guy plane off his palm? I did.

Half the reason I listen to Count Dankula is his accent. Thank you for the recommendation of Limmy.
