wisconsin accent part 2

[christianac123]

The band director at my school is from Green Bay. I love hearing her accent! It's so freaking amusing! And I love teasing her when she says "draygin'" in place of "dragging" and "bayg" instead of "bag." XD Here is my database so far: dragging = draygin', bag = bayg, flag = flayg, root = ruht, roof = ruhf, measure = mayshure, swag = swayg, water fountain = bubbler, traffic lights = stop'n'go lights (of stop lights), Northern U.S. = up nort', A = eh ("Let's tune to a concert EH"). XD

[christianac123]

BAYG! XD

[vanmfan01]

I've lived in Wisconsin my entire life (51 years) & I'm from Ozaukee.. This girl definitely has the WI accent. And there's nothing wrong with that!

[SummerSparkle321]

u sound more Minnesota than Wisconsin.

[ramemareh68]

@SummerSparkle321 It's the same dialect.

[darkkristian22]

i live in wisconsin, and you dont sound like you have an accent, js

[Breezetail10255]

When I saw the first video I was thinking "...you don't have an accent at all." but then you said you lived by Milwaukee...I live in Wauwatosa so that pretty much explains why I heard no accent.

[Scottaytay]

make an Oh Crap video.

[winzeelu]

i AM SO LONG i AM NOT THE ONLY PERSON THAT GOES THROUGH PEOPLE THINKING MY WISCONSIN ACCENT IS FUNNY! The odd thing is I just moved to Illinois and people comment on it all the time..its sooo annooying!

[Oukro]

I think it's funny how people from other states pronounce Wisconsin. They say it so elegantly like, "Wis-Consen." and I'm just over here like "...Wisconsin."

[sasssy444]

@Oukro hahaha totally! it cracks me up. I used to work at a hotel and anyone from outta state certainly over emphasized the CON. too funny!

[sonbuhitsunei]

For what it's worth, I grew up after the age of 2 around Madison- the only obvious accent you put on anything is on a few words- such as about sounding like a-boat and oohver for "oh-ver". But the irony here is that I've been told that I sound quasi-british by some, and then today some twit in Nebraska tried to tell me I said "aboot"...like hell! I said "aBOUT" really fast and his hick self got confused I guess lol

[MrEmersonChris]

Im from Wisconsin but spent most of my live in Tennesse.. I dont see your accent as being anything but typical mid-western. Im sure it sounds weird to a hillybilly, but c'est la vie.

[Turbo4263]

i think i know you lol

[thelastpoetoutlaw]

I'm from the deep south, so it's very obvious to my ears that you have an accent. But I don't think it's very heavy or offensive.

[Nick1120NR2003]

I'm from Ohio... I can't hear an accent at all... you sound like everyone around here to me...

[wakasak1]

I never thought we had accents but I guess everybody thinks so.. Guess I'll whip out being "exotic" next time I'm in another state / country. ;D

[ArmandoReyes691]

Haha look up family guy Wisconsin nympho haha its hilarious

[SCHRUBBE1966]

Crap, i am from Milwaukee but live in the U.K. . They think i am Cnadian. :(...I sound Canadian to the British :(((>>>>>

[nicolemusic15]

Yeahh Wisconsin!(: And do we really have an accent?! o.O haha

[ohso41]

@nicolemusic15

Yes, if you think people from say..."Kansas" have southern accents (they don't) then yes you do have an accent.

[mudpuppy10m1]

Sorry some people in Wisconsin doesn't have accents I'm from Cecil and i don't have accent!!!

[CRUSADER42crazies]

Wisco ROCKS!! :)

[SK83RGUR188]

Yuuuuuppppp you do have onee

[paythetoll275]

; I'm from Fond du Lac. I agree we don't have it. We drink too much to have an accent. ;) bahahaha. ps. i disagree, i think you are as cute as your first video.

[TheTellytubbie101]

superior has a different accent then like milwaukee because were almost in minnesota nd stuff so yea wisconsinites have a unique accent aapparently to ppl

[TheTellytubbie101]

[sasssy444]

@TheTellytubbie101 hahaha hell yea!!!

[TheTellytubbie101]

@sasssy444 hahaha WOO HOO

[MrEmersonChris]

@TheTellytubbie101 Look at us?? I dont remember seeing you make any great plays. Look at "them" as in professional athletes who come to the state you live in to play a sport you like, would have made more sense.

[TheTellytubbie101]

@MrEmersonChris Um who cares? u dont even no who i am so mayb i hav made great plays u dont no anythin about me AND im saying us becuase were greenbay packers everyone says us obveioulsy ur not a sports person if u dont no how to talk

[TheFoxFan]

@TheTellytubbie101 I'm a GBP fan and I'm British woot :)

[sammi16247]

Wisconsin is awesome! Ppl know were I'm from when I speak to them lol an I go how do you know? I can't tell you have an accent probably cause I'm from milwakee lol

[chinchillin182]

I'm from the south (Georgia, to be exact). And I'm constantly being told that I have a "funny litttle acceeeent." I have never been out of the south. I have been asked several times if I am from wisconsin, although some people have asked if I am from chicago. I came to listen, and see if they're right, and listening to all these "wisconsin accents" I'd say these people were right on it, because I don't hear it. It sounds like me, and this is the first time I've heard someone that sounds like me.

[taygerhause123]

I'm from Wisconsin and I can't hear an accent :(

[fliptrick18]

i can hear your accent when you say about and wisconsin. kinda funny, im from racine so ive probly got one too haha

[T16Akatsuki]

[symoneisthebomb]

[GoodChocolateGaming]

[akaboo69]

its very similar to the Canadian accent

[lorerave4137]

I really don't get it. I'm from Green Bay and when my friends or family travel everyone always says we have a distinctive WI accent and I don't really hear any difference from how I talk compared to how anyone else talks...

[LizzieHazACupcake]

You're pretty.

[veneziazconcept]

can anyone say...Wauwatosa??? that's where I am

[Krazyk12200]

The whole yah der hay is from the UP not WISCONSIN GET IT RIGHT!

[harrisontelyan]

[7leprechaun7]

@harrisontelyan wow. no, no shes not. She is quite cute

[WISCONSINWOODSHUNTER]

[TheContentCard]

@FishEaster

You spelled Kenosha wrong. I just thought it was funny. But YAY on spelling everything else right. I live in Kenosha and can't spell Milwaukee without spellcheck. lol!

[koko5444]

ur hot :D

[StoneCold75]

You looked hotter in the first video...Hmmm what did you change

[sasssy444]

@StoneCold75 hmmmmmmmmm,... well i'm wearing dark green contacts here? lol. maybeee that's it.

plus my hair is more blonde (summer) :)!

but thanks? LOL

[StoneCold75]

@sasssy444 your welcome?...Dont worry I'd still have sex with you, its not a deal breaker or anything

[imjustinnorman]

@StoneCold75 its all about the lighting.

[XxAMilesxX]

@StoneCold75 I think she looks great in this video as much as the last but she made a video on her accent not her looks. :p

[StoneCold75]

@XxAMilesxX Like I said..shes a cutie..and bang-able for sure

[crazymonkeypoop333]

@ohso41 lol we literaly cant pick out our accent

[ohso41]

I think its cute that people from Wisconsin don't think they have accents. My friend is from Milwaukee and she didn't think she has an accent until she moved to Georgia then she realized she had one. However before that she lived in Seattle and thought everyone there sounded like her- and she used to get upset when the Seattle locals would point out her Wisconsin accent to her and couldn't understand why because she thought she sounded "just like them"

[rizdraver]

@FishEaster

I agree. The SE corner is all German influenced. And the more north/west you go you get the strong Scandinavian influences: cat becoming kyeat, that becoming 'thyeat'. Though, the whole state has the characteristic 'o', turning soft a's into hard a's (bag becomes bayg) and highly stressing their r's (Go 'fur' a walk).

[SpockOfRock]

I couldn't tell you're from the midwest from the way you talk. You could come from California (except they say "dude" alot). You have absolutely no accent at all. None.  You're from WIsconsin. No accent. You're normal.

[TheFoxFan]

I love your accent so much I'm

British and I love the way it sounds also my face actor ever eric szmanda is from Milwaukee (you guys say Mawaukee it's cute hehe)

[sasssy444]

@TheFoxFan thanks honey!! :D

[BlackOpsRush21]

@TheFoxFan i never noticed that how we say that and thats true but i still dont hear the wisconsin accent :P even tho i am from wisconsin all i know is from ppl telling me is that we talk faster and pronounce things different

[TheFoxFan]

@BlackOpsRush21 YeAH you do talk normal but pronounce differently. I love how yopu say about it's freaking cute XD

[sonbuhitsunei]

@TheFoxFan The hell we do! I lived in Wisconsin most of my life and have never heard that or said that-I say MIL-WAU-kee, Wis-CON-sin (not WES-con-sen or wis-CAHNNN-sen as people seem to think we do..I say "so", not "sooh", "aBOUT", not "aboot" or "aboat"...yet people hear I lived there and try to say I do when I can clearly hear that accent and know what it sounds like. I grew up with a mom from NY, an Estonian born, German accented grandma...so there's no way I have any wis-KAYN-sen accent lol

[TheFoxFan]

@sonbuhitsunei Eric Szmanda is a prime example, he's curbed it as CSI has gone on but in the begining and even now words like power, fire etc it's so obvious he doesn't think he has an accent either but you guys really do XD

[sonbuhitsunei]

@TheFoxFan Not at all true- SOME do, but most dont. If you'd live there for a while you'd quickly realize that. II know what the accent sounds like because it sounds weird to me too when I hear it - and I grew up there. It all depends on your parents and who you learned from in the first few years of life. Mine were from entirely different parts of the world, and my extended family, had German accents and Estonian accents. Yeah, he probably says power like "pAHwurr", right? I don't.

[TheFoxFan]

@sonbuhitsunei Yeah he does hehe it's cute I love the accent :) ot all do but he does hehe

[jLoves951]

@TheFoxFan How do we have an accent!! Its like.. just.. blah you guys are like, ELLO. lol 

[TheFoxFan]

@jLoves951 Hahahaha but we hear a strong accent yo0ur end too lol

[jLoves951]

@TheFoxFan Lol well Yes I can see. We come from different places and are accustomed to the different ways of talking and accents and we hear someone from somewhere else and its like "OMG thats so cool!" lol :)

[TheFoxFan]

@jLoves951 Yeah I love it heehee

[bigapplebucky]

A Wisconsinite will often be heard to say, 'Muh-waukee' instead of 'Mill-waukee'. I've lived in NY for 30+ years and I still have much of my Wisconsin accent. No big deal.

[Shankurfaceoff]

the farther north you get the more accent you get...im north of greeeeen baaaaay

[alisabagel7294]

OMG.

Mayyybe we live in the same town.!

ha.

i thought you look familiar....

haa.

[rizdraver]

The best part of this video is your classic Wisconsin 'O' when you say 'vide-o' at 0:05 and how you have an extreme Canadian vowel raising when you say 'about' at 0:18. It basically sounds like "a-boat".

[ayamemousy]

@rizdraver video was vide-o~ like a filler. and the about she was mumbling. :] if you notice she says video 18 more times after 1:00 normally :P

[poor500]

i think this video wasnt bad i think it would be 3 mins and over 3mins your probly lose a few people

[symoneisthebomb]

fucking yankee

[taylord1]

@symoneisthebomb fucking not yankee

[EvilPanzer]

Haha..kayla.

Just call me next time u get really drunk.

[rizdraver]

Your hair's still beautiful and your accent seems to have gotten thicker (it's probably just coming out more since you're talking a bit more natural in this vid".
