I saw over at my sweet niece Kit's blog, she did such a cool dialect vlog...so I thought maybe I would try it out...
Take note:
* I hate to hear recordings of my voice....I am soooooo Southern!!
* BTW, I love being Southern....many people think that because you have a strong Southern accent, you are uneducated. Well, so not true. I'm not a rocket scientist, and many other Southerners are not either,
but we are not ignorant! We just love to use colorful language and dramatic vocal inflections....
talking slowly and savoring every syllable!
* Here are the words that I read and questions that I answered~~
Read these words:
Aunt, Route, Wash, Oil, Theater, Iron, Salmon, Caramel, Fire, Water, Sure, Data, Ruin, Crayon, Toilet, New Orleans, Pecan, Both, Again, Probably, Spitting image, Alabama, Lawyer, Coupon, Mayonnaise, Syrup, Pajamas, Caught
And answer these questions:
•What is it called when you throw toilet paper on a house?
•What is the bug that when you touch it, it curls into a ball?
•What is the bubbly carbonated drink called?
•What do you call gym shoes?
•What do you say to address a group of people?
•What do you call the kind of spider that has an oval-shaped body and extremely long legs?
•What do you call your grandparents?
•What do you call the wheeled contraption in which you carry groceries at the supermarket?
•What do you call it when rain falls while the sun is shining?
•What is the thing you change the TV channel with?
OK....here I am....
OK....here I am....
(Wow....that's about all I can say....Wow!)
Why don't you join in the fun and post your own dialect vlog??
