My parents grew up in Boston but my father's job transferred them to Alabama in their mid 20s where they stayed for over 50 years. They never lost their Boston accent & I grew up never completely sounding southern no matter how hard I tried to assimilate. My sister & I went to Boston to sprinkle their ashes a few years ago & it was so comforting to be surrounded by voices that sounded like our parents. As a kid, I was embarrassed by my parents sounding so different. But now I love to hear that Boston accent & wish they were still around so I could hear them.

you might do the diphthong O subconsciously and translate it out of your own head. record yourself doing a bunch of long O sounds in your best version of a NY or midwest or southern accent, then do the same thing again with your version of "no accent" and listen to both versions and you might hear yourself doing it on the recording.

As an non-American (I'm half-british) speaker, I find the differences somewhat subtle, especially compared to a New York accent. To me, they sound quite similar. It's easier to hear it when it's more exaggerated, as in a Texan accent or a Southern States accent. The various accents in Britain are much easier for me to figure out (Cockney, Bristolian, Brummie, Scouser, Manc, Yorkshire, Geordie, Scottish, Welsh and Irish etc, and all the different dialects between them). It's weird that I can't figure American and Canadian accents out so easily, even Aussie and Kiwi are easier to differentiate imo.

Tango Whisky ignore my ignorance but I didn’t even know Europeans had different accents till recently. I thought it was all the same accent everywhere

Do a video with a southern accent!!!

[@ladypinkylee]

That would be a good one b/c there are so many varieties!

[@johnjoyce5598]

@@ladypinkylee absolutely. I've sent 99% of my life in the South and Texan, Floridian (me), Georgian, Louisianan, and North Carolinian are so different.

Yes! Fake Southern accents drive me crazy. I may not have one, but I've been in the South since 1975 and can here it.

Grew up in Boston area (Everett, MA.) Kid made a lot of progress in a short time. Great job by Marty and Page in the time frame. You imagine if they had more time, he'd be great.
