Do you think the uneducated blonde with disposable income paris hilton will ever become the slurring slut accent?

I have no idea what type of *accent* I have... I have lived in so many places :smile:

As for Thumper... flowerforyou He does indeed have a delicious meld of a southern accent and deep tones... the kinda voice a girl could listen to all day. :heart:

I wonder... if northern folks are attractred to a southern accent.. are southern folks attracted to a northern one?:smile:

In Texas,like the rest of the south, it is called a drawl. I was born here and have never lived anywhere else so I sound normal to me.

I do work with people from all over the US and ocassionally Canadians and can usually tell where they come from by listening to them. I have surprised a few by naming their home state. Sometimes, I do have to ask them to speak slowly. I not only speak Texan, but I listen with Texas ears. The clipped, quick words seem to all jumble up in my brain.

We say "y'all"( check the placement of the apostrophe it goes where the missing letters are), and "yep" and "uh huh" and "kinda" and "over yonder". Most everybody is addressed as "Honey". Up the road a bit can be 300 miles. Texas is big. We measure distance in hours not miles. That 300 miles would be a 6 hour trip.

Y'all have a good day and enjoy the diversity of language in America.
