I know English and Vermontese and German and Bavarian Dialect and you make a valid point because in the case of my grandmother from Bavaria it is more obvious in differences...
this is so valid and true....

Thanks for the explanations in such an articulate southern grammar. Loved it!

Lemonette: I'm fortunate enough to be generally known as a poliglot, but the
Southern idiomatic twists of sintax and proxody makes it very hard for me to even contemplate the idea of learning Southern.
Well done, keep it up!

But this is NOT BILINGUALISM!!! It´s just two accents of the same language! This is stupid!! Don`t confuse terms!!!I AM BILINGUAL I Speak English and Spanish perfectly (TWO different languages! not the same.
Esto es una estupidez, NO es bilinguismo en absoluto! sólo dos acentos de una misma lengua. COme on!
Thanks!
