SA's Afrikaans ranked the sexiest accent in the world


No doubt our headline is going to cause some consternation for some - especially when you consider SA has 11 official languages and of course there are a number of dialects to the Afrikaans accent - but like real Saffas, we'll own this nonetheless. 
Lovin.ie - an Irish-based travel curation site that says "they do all the hard work so that travellers don’t have to", has ranked 50 of the world’s accents. 
While they might be spot on when they say "let the arguing begin” - because we have to admit the Irish accent is pretty sexy in its own right - if the results of this survey are to be believed - then that local meisie in the Wimpy ad from way back with the heavy Afrikaans accent saying "I lurve it when you talk foreigner" is most-likely the epitome of sexy to some people's ears.
Below is the list of the top ten sexiest accent in the world

10. Southern American
9. Jamaican
8. Israeli
7. Spanish
6. Irish
5. French
4. Australian
3. Northern Irish
2. Italian
1. South African
