Bilingual Toddler Learns How to Moo in Welsh and Irish Accents

In the process of learning what noise a cow makes, astute little Liam picked up the difference between his parent’s accents.

The two-year-old can be heard responding to his dad Dorian Rees’ question of what noise a cow makes in Welsh, by saying “moo” with a soft accent and responding to the same question asked by his mom, Catherine McMahon who is from Northern Ireland, with a higher pitch.

Rees told Storyful that his son speaks Welsh with a Welsh accent and “he has picked up a Belfast accent when speaking English” with his mom. Credit: Dorian Rees via Storyful
