I am posting in my accent.

I'm'ma be goin'a bed here purdy quick. whatch'uys doin' t'nigh'? It's da winner here in Minnesota and we go' two feet'a snow aroun' Chrissmas.



I got a typ'cal Upper-Midwessyern accen'.

(no typo "st" regulary becomes a palatalized long S here)

More info on my accent:

R becomes guttural (like in French) after back vowels

T and D are pronounced like the Spanish flapped R in between a stressed vowel before and an unstressed vowel after.

Voiced and unvoiced TH harden to a dental D and T at the start of a stressed syllable.

The vowels in bot and bought merge and shift forward in pronunciation

The vowel in bat and sack rises and breaks into "eh-uh"

The stressed "uh" vowel in but and suck backs towards where the caught-bought vowel used to be.

The vowel in bag, bang, and flag merge with the "ay" vowel in "vague"

There is a strong tendency to drop schwas.

N disappears before F, V, TH, S, Z, SH, and ZH, nasalizing the previous vowel. "Wiscõsin"

Howay the lads...

Gan footy.

I have a weird accent for somebody from Texas...I have no ideas how I'd phonetically type it...a lot of it is in the cadence and inflection..and I woodnt know how to type dat

Ummmm....how yooou saaay......doh skoh..... I stammer a lot and my speech is peppered with little nonsense phrases...also I have somewhat different accents depending on my mood and who I am speaking to....

My good AS-ish friend and I have our own dialect between us that sounds like a mix between child- talk, a fake, heavily affected Southern accent....and I think a rural Illinois accent...since that's where he is originally from... Really that's not a very good description of it..it is hard to explain...

I talk-sing..and my accent is all over the place.....we mimic each other.....the result is something that almost sounds like a coded language...

I'm American, and have lived in several different states, from California to the Deep South. While in the south I was told I had a Californian accent, and two months later, while visiting Cali, I was told I sounded southern. Now most people say I don't have much of an accent. One thing that was recently brought to my attention was my pronunciation of 'alright'. Apparently I say "owl-right"--I think that may be more idiosyncracy than regional accent, though.

Wayul, bein' from Texas mahsef (El Paso, but family by way of Waco...we're halfway between George W's ranch and the Branch Davidians, so it's a rough neighborhood... cain't rahtly say I have much of un ak-sent wun way or t'other...

I live in NC, wher everything is pronounced from the front of the mouth, as opposed to the back, like
Texas...
