We have quite a few accents, you may wish to specify.blarg478 said:
Canadia is such a diverse country, not like Canada, they're just copycoats! /sarcasm
West Coast Canadian for me, not the stereotypical Newfoundland/Ontario accent everyone seems to think we Canadians have.
What is this "snow" of which you speak?Supreme Unleaded said:
And it's a term we use down here for "people from the North." It's also used for Northerners who can't drive down here.
Because America DOESN'T have Southerm, Eastern, Western, Central and Northern accents.DeadlyGlitch said:
And it totally wasn't derived from the British Accents and changed over the course of a century.
Nope, not at all. Everyone has always used an American accent. EVERYWHERE. /massive unecessary sarcasm brought about by me quite possibly missing a joke
I've been told I sound a bit Irish, Scottish and even French. I don't talk so good, but I am hoping to pick up an accent someday.
I have a slight southern accent that really doesn't come out unless i'm around people with accents. Namely my parents, i throw a yall and take a few vowels out of normal speech sometimes but when i've been around my parents for a couple days or the guys I work with my virginian accent comes out. Especially around women tho i've caught myself about to call people hun my dad does it all the time to people he's just met and i sometimes do but try not to some people think is creepy or being to forward.
Well your missing out my friend, snow is the Amazing powdery stuff that allows for many things such as, snowball fights, slading, sking, snowboarding, missed school days, and somehow it makes you get a fever more often.Heart of Darkness said:
Is this "snow" like the stuff we call rain? Because rain can make me miss school days, makes us sick sometimes, and, when it's especially heavy, allows us to go canoeing down Main Street.Supreme Unleaded said:
I'm from Northeast Ohio, and therefore don't have an accent. No really, television networks send TV anchors to Cleveland for a few months so they'll lose their accent - as broadcast journalism majors will tell you, Ohio is where the most desirable internships are at, thanks to our complete lack of any accent.
Yay us.
Yay us.
Ha, now while you may be able to go conouing down main street I can go 40MPH down my main street, and yes it was 40MPH, the police had a speed gun, that was so damn fun, they shut down the road for a day just purely for sledding.Heart of Darkness said:
But anyway just think of snow as your rain except instead of pelting you and soaking you its all nice and soft and powdery and it doesnt breech your coat, unless of course its slush, then its just discusting. Oh and the OCCASINAL hail storm can be a bit nasty, i wouldnt go outside then.
Depends on where I have been the past day or so, as I have a very malleable voice and as a result, I came home from Canada with a Canadian accent, came home from Tennessee with a Southern Accent, and came home from Britain with a British accent.
But most of the time I have a very slight Pennsylvanian Dutch accent that I got from my mother growing up, and I don't seem to grow out of

I'm from the south, but have no southern accent whatsoever unless I force it. I use typically southern contractions like "Ya'll" and "Ain't" but no one when they hear my voice expects that I'm from _____. So I guess I have a regular American-English accent.
Although sometimes I use a thick Cajun accent, just because it's sexy, but I can do most any other accent I hear.

I've been told I have a slight north (New) Jersey accent. I never noticed it until someone brought it to my attention though. I apparently pronounce "water" as "wader".
