When I get really excited about something I'm talking about, all my vowels get crazy.

Like if I would normally say something like "my god, you're an idiot," it'd magically turn into "my gee-ahd, yoo-ir an ihhdeot."

It's kind of hard to put into text how it sounds, but I kind of made that look like some nasty southern accent and it's nothing like that. goonish

Heh. The only English accents I knew were British and Southern. I can't even hear a difference between British and Australian. maps;


Don't let an Aussie hear you say that. There are differences.   n_u

people sometimes tell me i have a southern accent, but i was born and raised in new jersey

also my grandparents who are new yorkers always add "er" instead of "a" at words like "rhonda"

i say words like "mountain" or "martin" more like "moun'in" and "mar'in"
but in words like "fourteen", i pronounce the "t"

I don't really say "ask(ed)" or "ax(ed)", what I say sounds more like "ass(ed)". goowan

unless it's in a sentence like "go ask him," then it'll actually sound like "ask"

I hate words that end in "-s_s" (asks, tests, casts, etc.)

So instead of saying "I have two tests to take today," like a normal person would, I would say:

"I have two tess'ta take today."

I know how to pronounce business. If I have to say it in a conversation, I'll say it correctly.

But if I have to read it out loud, I'll end up going "byoo-see-ness" or "bee-see-ness". goonish

According to my floormates, "errand" is not pronounced "air-rend"

I'm sticking to it though baddood;
