Accents n such where ur from

i wish i had an accent im an accent lover, i saw soda i have family up in Idaho and they always say Pop whenever im up there drives me crazy, i say "you guys" a lot instead of you all or just ya'll lol but really so cal talk is pretty boring

 

oh one thing that bugs the hell out of me about the saouth is how everybody says ma'am or sir drives me crazy i went to visit my sister in southern louisiana and and everybody would sat even to me, my sister has even started to say it here ma'am is deeply frowned open people think your being sarcastic or your calling them old

 

Im from Quebec Canada but now live in the US I have been speeking english for 10 years now but it's hard for me to write. My first language is french. So sorry if my thread don't make sense sometimes

 

People just aren't used to the South. I say ma'am or sir to show formal respect to someone. Like when I was a cashier at the TN Aquarium I always said it if the person was a complete stranger. People also seem to be flabbergasted by the hospitality of the South. I open doors for people all the time, and whenever I do it in Florida or somewhere I'm looked at like i'm a demi-god or something. Here, it's just normal.

 

You might be able to get people to believe that if they haven't heard you talk in person. They would get a kick out of listening to Roger talk..


And: U'ins should know it's a crick.

 

Ohh you do have an accent! To people from different parts of the world, or even country, you have a very strong accent!

 

You have no idea how often Roger and I argue about how to pronounce the word "dog".

And I never learned how to say "creek" because we didn't have none where I grew up

 

Well im Welsh. Now thats a silly accent. I imagine Steve would agree. Find a video on youtube or something. I bet you'll chuckle.

About American accents. To me...most American accents sound the same. The only ones i can tell apart are:
Generic American accent
Southern accent
New yorker

But the one thing you guys do have in common is that you all speak SO loud. I have a few american friends here and you can here them coming from a couple of streets away. lol

 

I would just like to point this out, I took two online quizzes on "What American Accent I Have" and both said Neutral/No Accent I win. I guess I just say some southern words (ya'll) that give me away. But sometimes I choose not to say them. I'm a weirdo.
