i also don't consider myself being from the east...i'd say central canada...because this is where all the action is

i don't really think I have an accent. Does anyone else think I do?? Hmm I was born in Colorado and I've lived in Michigan and New York*for like less than a year

* I loved New York but it was so expensive to live there. Anyways and now I live in Tennessee. Alot of people say I have a northern accent maybe thats because Im not like them and I dont say yall or coke I say you guys and pop!! But I guess I do have an accent!***IT'S A NICHOLE ACCENT!!*** LOL Its an accent all my own and nobody else can have it! believe me I will say the wierdest things and people are always like "huh??" But ohwell its me! <---- I dont think this matters to anyone but as you already know I blab alot!

Tom,
I feel you on the written accent. Sparklii dear, you've been infected with the Tenn-speaks. Perhaps I might not quite venture to say hillbilly, but it's there, if only in traces. Most speak how they write, which makes written word fairly indicative of region in which you live, but I do have to ask, not that I think I'm a particular exception (how pompous would I be for that?), but Tom, rather than knowing from incident where I am from, what region would you otherwise guess strictly from my written voice? I'm curious to see if my written accent might be thought to follow closely the verbal accent that I've been mistaken, you might say, to have. thank-you.

Yes I am from Texas and say coke for everything (in fact I was in Colorado 2 weeks ago and it seems they have never heard of coke-pepsi everywhere-yuk!) and I have to remind mysef not to put ya'll in the posts(though it is much easier to type than you guys). I definitely do not have the east Texas accent (very thick up there-I am sure you would pick it up in the posts). I think my accent is very slight.

Just to clear up for my fellow Canadians....there are plenty of accents out on the east. In Nova Scotia alone! I was travelling around the province over the summer and three hours out of Halifax I couldn't understand what people were saying because of their accents! And if you ever watch Sportsdesk or something, when they are interviewing hockey players, listen, cuz as soon as Al MacInnis talks, you know he is from Cape Breton. An island much like NEwfoundland with people who like their parties and drinks, as they talk with their funny, funny accents!

Lil_G · #38 10-09-2001, 09:07 PM

Not to be offensive to any of my fellow pats, but i gotta say that the new brunswick accent is the absolute worst...i feel like offering them a glass of water so there words wouldn't come out so hoarse..

Tom Earp · #39 10-09-2001, 11:57 PM

SCCard, I will start paying a little closer attention, but first guess NE or E coast area!!!!!

What think ye Captin Jack, am I in the right country??

Your Greek Bud!

Ya dang sure dont have a KEEEENNNTUUUCY accent!!!!!!

SigmaChiCard · #40 10-10-2001, 12:09 AM

Tom,
there have been efforts at convincing me I'm from NE region, none of which succeeded in convincing me that all of which I've ever known to be wrong...as they say, I was "born & raised in the Heart of Kentucky." I assure you, however, your analysis played perfectly into what I'd suspected you might say, and not because of my expectations. Keep an eye on me though, reprimand me should I slip.
