The "i" in "Friday" is already a diphthong, in all accents. Specifically it's something like /aɪ/ in the International Phonetic Alphabet.

Maybe she trained the actors, hahahah.

Pretty sure [aɪ̯] is a diphthong already...

Long "i"? Really? I wasn't aware that New Yorkers had an Irish brogue.....

This is where all the bad NY accents get taught! Sounds like Cher in Moonstruck- that's anywhere but Brooklyn! How should I know? I'm a native.

I lived in Staten Island for years and this lady has no clue about the NYC Accent. If she walked around talking like that she would probably get robbed. Send this lady back to Kansas.
