Every country and culture has its own flirting traditions, and this page pulls them together — Irish, Italian, Mexican, Jamaican, Indian, Scottish and plenty more. These are our pick up lines by nationality and background, ranked by reader votes, and they range from affectionate cultural in-jokes to lines that only work if you can manage the accent. They suit travel, language exchanges, and anyone proud enough of where they are from to enjoy a joke about it. The ones that do well are the ones written with fondness. Readers have reliably voted down anything that reads as a cheap stereotype.
