Regional Dialect: Vlog

It's a Small World - Atlanta, GA

For those of you who aren't familiar, the Regional Dialect Meme is an exercise for bloggers to participate in and share with their readers how they say certain words and phrases. :) I have SO loved watching these on some of the blogs I frequently peruse and think it's really interesting to see how different people say different words and phrases.

Video Disclaimer: I fidget a lot, I like to play with my rings and open and close my locket. And if you can't tel,l I'm trying not to get too side-tracked. :)

I like how I mentioned that I try not to say "y'all" but then I successfully close the video with a good ol' "y'all" phrase. If you live in these parts, it's hard not to!

Play along!

Aunt, Route, Wash, Oil, Theater, Iron, Salmon, Caramel, Fire, Water, Sure, Data, Ruin, Crayon, Toilet, New Orleans, Pecan, Both, Again, Probably, Spitting image, Alabama, Lawyer, Coupon, Mayonnaise, Syrup, Pajamas, Caught
