Everybody has an accent, the accent where one lives...nm

Do you have an accent?

When I went to Southern Tennessee with DD2 to look at a college, I was surprised that I wasn't hearing much of a Southern accent in the people around me. They all pretty much sounded like me.


Are accents dying out? Do you have an accent?


lol, also her, I mean I know what an accent
is, but what is a 'fake accent?'

Somebody who tries to have an accent?
If her accent is grating, you must
xx
Isn't it weird how when you have an accent...sm
you don't know it until you get around other people who are not southern? People up north don't realize they have the northern accent until they come down here I guess.
I LOVE his Australian accent - MN

haha

and i think i will be driving through there whenever i move back to Nevada!!
I live in the south and know my accent is truly southern
but I find Paula to be over the top and seemingly a put on with hers. Most I have met from different spots in the US and different countries love to hear me talk.

Philly/South Jersey accent
I have a Philly accent, though not as pronounced as some. I definitely say "wooder" for "water". But I don't have that over-long "Oh" sound that you hear around Philly. I do say certain phrases that are Philly-distinct. Like, "I'm gone downa shore," which means that I plan on going to the New Jersey seaside. And we tend to say "yiz" for the plural "you", using it the same way as southerners say y'all and New Yorkers say yooze.

Oh! And I do shout out, "Yo!" when I want to get someone's attention.
I live in the south. Her accent sounds really put on and fake to me, BUT
I actually do think she is a neat lady. No, I do not eat the types of things she cooks. Brother, none of it is one bit healthy! Fried everything and pounds of butter in everything. Yes, it tastes great I am sure, but who can afford those calories on a regular basis?
James Gandolfini, but only doing his Tony Soprano accent..
and James Earl Jones. The only woman I can come up with is not an actor, but it would be Maya Angelou, she has the most crisp, perfect command of the English language.
nope...lol, hint: try reading it with a strong southern accent...lol
:)

When a patient has a russian name they speak with a russian accent, then - see message
the next patient has an italian name and they speak with an italian accent, then the next patient was a child and they spoke with a goofy (disney character accent), etc, etc. It's been like that ALL day. That's why I said I like to type the report in wingdings and see how they like it. ha ha
