    yeh im partial to northeast accents for sure since im from rhode island. i didn't even know i had an accent until i went to college in boston (which many students aren't from there btw so they have no discernible accent) and i was quickly informed that i sound like a family guy character lmaoo. Also when i asked people where the "bubblah" was, i realized no one else knows what a bubbler is, it's called a water fountain apparently

    Have you guys (Office Blokes) ever heard the Chesapeake Island (Tangier and Smith Islands) accent. These are isolated islands in Chesapeake Bay with no connection to the mainland US except by boat and they are where 17th century British colonists passed by and sometimes debarked. As a result, they have accents that are very odd to American ears but supposedly sound like 17th century southwest English speech. There are a couple of videos of this you might react to.

    @@RealDiehl99 Yes and probably for the same reason--to my ears anyway. There are plenty of videos of both and you can listen to both and draw your own conclusions. But any differences could be accounted for by the colonists settling the two areas coming from different areas of England. Supposedly the first English colony in North America was established in the Outer Banks of North Carolina in 1587 by Sir Walter Raleigh but I'm not sure where in England those people came from. In any case, they disappeared but were followed by others. Maryland and the Chesapeake region was colonized only a bit later by Catholics brought under a charter granted in 1632 to Cecil Calvert, 2nd Baron Baltimore by Charles I. Again I'm not sure where exactly they came from in England but experts say the accent resembles southwestern England.

    My favorite sound in the Pittsburgh accent is the Oh, in things like know and go. It almost turns the diphthong into a triphthong, and is another sound that sounds close to Cockney.

    Sylvester Stallone speech isn't an "accent" of course he will have some regional affectations, but what everyone is assuming is his "accent" including myself until about 10yrs ago. Is a birth defect/problem idk exactly what to call it, I thought he was foreign growing up and just happened to read on him 1 day. When he was being born the Doctor had to use Pincers I guess common for difficult births at the time? And a nerve was pinched it's actually why he sounds like that and his face is like that, I don't mean this as a joke in anyway but you can certainly liken it to him having a small stroke. That's exactly how some who were able to recover sometimes talk and still have partial facial paralysis.

    When Brits try to imitate American accents, they often use the wrong kind of D sound. A lot of British accents almost double a D in the middle of a word. Bod-dy for body, with a D sound on both the end of the first syllable and the beginning of the last. So Laurence is saying wahd-der where most Americans would say either wahd-er or wah-der, depending on the accent.

    The West Virginia accent, in my opinion and not disparagingly, is more hillbilly than southern. There is definitely a difference, though both possess a drawl. The Pittsburgh accent incorporates what I’d call clipped words and phrases. Jeet yet? No, Jew? (Did you eat yet? No, did you?)…Are yinz going to the game tomorrow? (Are you ones (archaic you plural) going to the game tomorrow?)…Red up your room. Company’s coming. (Ready up your room. We’re getting company). Thanks for your indulgence. I was born and raised @ seventy five miles east of Pittsburgh. Oh, by the way; there’s a little paperback book titled “Pittsburghese”. It defines most of the words and phrases that are typical of that region.

    Philly/South Jersey is famous for "wooder". It's a lazy accent. We are also known for clippin' the G from every verb ending in -ING. Words like laugh and bath sound more like layf and bayth. ("Yous were layfin' da whole time") Monday sounds like Mundy. Window sounds like Winda. "Do you" becomes "ju". "ju wanna?" = do you want to?

    These are not the most distinctive accents which I would say include: New York, Boston, Baltimore-Philadelphia, "southern", California/San Fernando Valley, and Chicago. There are many others but they are more obscure to people not from there or less readily differentiated from others.

    Younger generations in the Midwest and Western states have a lot of California influence in their speech. Plus, essentially the central and Western states all have slight variations on the quintessential American accent. Sorry to those in the Northeast and South, but your complex varieties of regional dialects are not quintessentially American.

    I disagree. Not only can I 9 of 10 usually tell immediately if someone is from New Orleans a lot of times I can tell what part of town they are from. Southern Louisiana Cajun us also distinct and to where I can’t understand but maybe half of what they say unless they switch to how they address outsiders. Also South Carolina Low Country Gullah Geechee people can sound like they are from Caribbean. Some part of Maine are like wow to my ears. I thought a guy from Michigan was Scandinavian until he told he was a Youper.

    @@anndeecosita3586 What is readily discernible by a local is often not by an outsider. I was talking about major accent groups even people from outside the US recognize as different from one another. I doubt someone from the UK can tell the accent from one part of the south, and certainly one town in Louisiana, from another. And sure, there are lots of very distinctive accents spoken by small numbers of people like the Gullah or the Chesapeake islanders or the Cajuns but again, even many Americans from distant parts of the US will never hear these spoken or even be aware of their existence.

    From my experience, and I’ve traveled throughout the country, is that people from Philly or NYC know you’re from Philly through the accent. Anywhere else they think you’re from New York. Some *supposedly* Philly accents are not even from Philly. Tina Fey’s exaggerates her perception of it. It’s embarrassing, actually.

    Just my little area of south Louisiana has several accents. Much of the city of Baton Rouge has a generic American accent with a slight twang on certain words. Go just outside the city and the accents get a much more southern draw. A little bit southwest and you start to hear that French Cajun influence. Southeast towards New Orleans and they almost sound like New Yorkers. A little bit northeast and you start to see more of a Mississippi sound with a slower cadence and a little bit bigger southern draw.
