well, there is generic, properly spoken english, which hardly anyone speaks, myself included (i think i lean towards a slight hoosier accent). i wasn't trying to be offensive or poke fun, just a question. nothing to get upset aboot, budday!

Mavrik was just trying to be funny, I think.

Quote, originally posted by Salsa! »I think that yes there might be a canadian accent, just like you have an eastern accent, a Louisiana accent, a mid-west accent, a California accent!Yes, there are definately many different accents in the US. Here in Pittsburgh, we even have our own sort of language. Let me tell ya, if you get called a "jag off" around here, it's not a good thing! We're well known for our own unique perversions of the language, there have even been a few books written about it.
