You have to come to where I live, a multi cultural melting pot....I heard someone said stories for strawberries...Used to be a little boy "Ryan" who lived across the street, he hated the Chinese lady next door because she called him "Lion".
My son can imitate Indian (Asian Indian) accent, it's very good and also very funny.
Thanks Sandra, I really missed your blogs lately. |

| I'm in Florida and when I hear people from up north speak they sound like dog - dawg and so on with lots of other words. There are tons of different ways of saying stuff. I like the wit one. |

| When I worked in my gallery in the centre of downtown Belfast, I used to buy my sandwiches next door. They used to ask if I wanted tea, coffee or wadder. If I bought for my friend also they would say 'Do youse two both wan mayo wit it?' One day they were all excited and told me 'Fla fla flarry'. Someone translated it for me as 'A fellow fell off a lorry.' Seems to be the same the whole world over Pitapie |

| Hi prelude2it I know what you mean..My Dad says dawg...and for toyota he says tie-oda. I just get tickled with the accent and slang here. I grew up in Arizona..occasionally you would hear a southern accent. |

| Thats cute overthehillandfaraway...I believe your right...My Mother is from Germany...Since I grew up around her I never detected an accent..though my friends would beg to differ...I just get a kick out of how people speak, I hope no one thought I was complaining:) |
