History-Sode | Ocracoke Brogue

History-Sode | Ocracoke Brogue

Down in the Outer Banks of North Carolina lies Ocracoke Island, where the accent sounds like it’s from another time and another continent.

In this special U.S.-Irish history-sode, we explore how Irish and Scottish settlers helped shape the unique Ocracoke Brogue, and how families like yours may have carried old-world language into a new coastal life.
