I thought I revive this discussion: What differences do you hear in regional dialects in the United States? Do you talk with an "accent?" or is it everyone else? What words and phrases do you say that are unique to your region?
How do you address a group of people: You, you all, y'all, you'ums, all y'all, youse...?
Is the word "every" two or three syllables?
Does "Aunt" sound like "ant" or "ahhnt"
Do you call your father- dad, pop, pops, daddy, pa,...?
That big sandwhich is it a hogie, hero, submarine, sub, po-boy...?
Do you put your groceries in a sack, bag, or poke?
