His brogue was so thick that listening to it was like sinking into a quagmire of peat bogs.

If I had to pay a nickel for every 'r' he rolled, I could go broke listening to his brogue & die happy, if penniless.

How'd the coconut creme & pineapple get into a Green Eyes? Did two islands conflate, & a brogue go rogue?? ♣ #SalonArtwois

Somehow, btw the leprechaun's brogue & mondegreens, his pot of gold morphed into a potable & then into something unfungible&gold on a fence.

Brogue: (n) : Gaelic term for a strong dialectal accent. In Ireland it used to be a term for Erse spoken with a strong English accent, but gradually changed to mean English spoken with a strong Irish accent as English control of Ireland gradually increased and Erse waned as the standard language; a strong oxford shoe, usually with ornamental perforations and wing tips
