How to Speak with a Southern Accent ~ HILARIOUS

How to Speak with a Southern Accent ~ HILARIOUS.

[@maddiefield382]

I'm from Mississippi, and honestly I've been watching northerners try to teach people how to do a southern accent, and I've never laughed harder. Seriously, it's great.

Right😂

[@rodrigohernanmino1372]

Maddie Field then you do a video. I was googling that accent but in every video there are southeners saying 'it's not like that'. Then I want to know.

[@litghost5427]

Bless your little hearts.

[@naynay5739]

Haha, actually as a Southerner myself, "bless your heart" can be a sincere expression of sympathy. But yeah you can definitely use it as a back handed remark lol.

My first week in Kentucky I would end the day with a headache. I had a very hard time understanding people. I will say an upside was that I really had the opportunity to work on my listening skills. So often we half listen while thinking what we are going to say next. Having to really consentrate on what people were saying forces you to pay attention to people and helps you form greater connections. People really appreciate when you actually listen to what they are saying.

It's southern. You haven't been to Thelma Kentucky. I'm from Louisville but I live in Thelma temporarily. It's only a three hour drive but it's like a completely different world.

[@LucasFernandez-fk8se]

Emily Richter how could you not understand a simple accent change I can understand most accents across the country northern southern Midwestern they aren't hard to understand maybe occasionally really trashy people are hard to understand but most people are easy to understand there accents

[@jordynelliott6712]

I was raised in both the north and south so depending who I'm around I'll switch up my accent. I think that's why I'm good at hearing and imitating accents (American wise). Most of my family's accent splits between Midwestern, Northern, and Southern.

[@twinkacast]

Jordyn Elliott I somehow managed to get a half decent Irish imitation and I'm working on several asian ones but also having been raised in both the north an the south accents are fairly easy to switch up an learn

[@jakesteele4047]

I'm from about as south as you can get and I've never heard a "farsee" used as a unit of measurement wtf

[@pootdoot5239]

Why is it always a Yankee trying to explain southern slang

[@keqh5757]

Bucky Barnes i don't know

[@ulek_604]

Because there are little to no southerners doing it.

[@jamestruthbernard]

Cause the south is a novelty to them.

[@channelsforpeople1780]

Bucky Barnes ikr

[@LucasFernandez-fk8se]

Evan M I don't want to go back to the north it's cold and expensive and I like it better down here

[@charliemanner1914]

Oh fiddlesticks I left my seed packet up in the attic. Be a dear and get em for me Caroline.

[@Timotimo101]

I'm from the South ... living in New England the last 17 years. This was fun to hear! haha!!! (and there are many different Southern accents) ... even in my native state of Tennessee there is a difference from East, Middle and West. East is Appalachian and West is more Deep South. Middle is ... well, unique. I think Nashville has its own accent. Thanks for sharing this ... I enjoyed it! Now I'm fixin' to sign out of here ;o)

[@keqh5757]

Timothy Spruill east Appalachian? I don't think i sound Appalachian even that accent sounds foreign to me

[@holasoydora428]

Middle Tennesseean here

[@jennylockner2285]

East tn kingsport tn hillbilly or mountain west tn Memphis tn wannabe southern a lot of city in the way they talk

[@schs1977]

“How’s Momaan’em” ---- “How is your Momma and them (other family members)"

[@bluecatblz]

Wow, they can't do these accents at all. I don't have a southern accent myself but half my family does and I heard it all my life. Born and raised in TN

[@keqh5757]

Sadie Blue same

[@ronnie2100]

I've never left the south and let me just say; they got it but they kinda don't.

[@pierces7076]

I'm from Athens GA and this is absolutely hilarious!

[@Slowmodem1]

Just remember that the plural of y'all is all y'all! :)

[@Bob20011492]

One unusual thing I noticed on visiting Atlanta years ago was the variety of dialects I heard in the course of a couple days. Of course there were a number of different regional accents, but there were also international accents from different parts of Europe and Asia. Very cool!

“Honey get me shotgen!” 👴🏻 “Why?” 👵🏻 “I’m gonin to get us some dinner! Don ask any Mer questions!” 👴🏻

[@wyntertyme1735]

Bless your heart

[@hopeidontgetcopyrighted4286]

When he was saying "fixin" I didn't even know what part of that statement was southern until he pointed it out 🤣 It just sounded normal to me lol

[@aikidragonpiper71]

I’m in Arkansas and we all have very different southern accents. In Arkansas alone we have at least 5 different accents. We have a lot of shortcuts in our slang words. OwUdoin,fixnto,derntootin,Norlins,sinsyouseup,yeppers,youanna go,how you been,all the fixins,goin,doin,duno ul(oil) and many more I don’t realize I use.

[@kyriljordanov2086]

aikidragonpiper71 That's true. Along the River y'all speak like we do in Mississippi, buy up in NW AK it sounds more similar to Oklahoma. Arkansas is such a beautiful state. We used to go up into the mountains when I was a kid and I loved it.

[@aikidragonpiper71]

Robert Kyril Jordan Movies always portray the south as only 2 accents when there’s probably dozens of dozens. Every state has multiple accents. They only portray a (Deliverance )accent or the Gone With The Wind (Georgia Tide Water accent).

[@robineggbluebu4371]

Country black folks can have their own accent.

[@sarahj5161]

Come to Jesus meetin'

[@cassandra.wladyslava]

I want to do a "How to speak like a Northerner" video now that's all "Ay! I'm walkin' here! Badda Bing! Yous guys!"

[@charliemanner1914]

Cassandra Wladyslava hahaha you're a wise guy eh?

[@leedaniels2506]

My Father was from West Virginia working in the CCC camp(ask your Grand-parants) in Idaho during the depression. When he met my Mother he told her people in Idaho were crazy. He said he was walking when a woman pulled her car over and asked him for directions to a store. He gave her the directions and finished with, "It's a good piece up the road". She slapped him. There was definitely a cultural divide. True story.

[@matthewwar2548]

I'm moving down to the south

[@billythekid6418]

It's, "hey, de eat yet? Naw dayou? Yan to? A iat!"

[@bethhooper4950]

It's "coming to Jesus meeting"

[@TheRick8866]

You all are some good looking people. Dang. I need to get on that Mormon lifestyle.

[@rangerryan9493]

[@aaronmorris960]

[@dp2013]

You cant do the impossible as our accent is in our DNA from birth. Quit trying youll just embarass yourself!

[@umityayla5051]

Southern accent (or should I say southernish) is even worse than Irish, it is real torture for us nonnative English speakers.
