People beat me up over this all the time. Apparently I say beg instead of bag. It's seems more like we say words like this with an "ay" sound, rather than an "ah" sounds like most everyone else? Because according to everyone I say Dray-gin, not dragon and say-gee not saggy.

@EmoishClown Don't worry; the band director in my school is from Wisconsin, and we tease her all the time. XD Here is my Wisconsin database so far (because of her): bag = bayg; flag = flayg; measure = mayshure; swag = swayg; root = ruht; roof = ruhf; dragging = draygin'; water fountain = bubbler; traffic lights = stop'n'go lights; northern U.S. = up nort'; A = EH ("Let's tune to a concert EH."); Just about every sentence starts with OH and ends with EH. I'll add to this database when possible.

You can KIND OF tell that you're saying bag in a Wisconsin dialect, but go to central Wisconsin all the time, and most of the people I've met there say "BAYG", quite noticeably. Yours is not as exaggerated

I say bag like beg and im not even from Wisconsin..

[csnerd7705]

Wisconin people say Bayg. Super annoying at first, get used to it after a while.

@symoneisthebomb Um..she clearly did not say BEHG. AAA as in AAAPLE or AAAAsshole. That's the sound you put on it. Not BUY-G.. Not BAYG. Not BEEG. Not BOG. Not BEG. BAAAAAAAG as in the first part of AAALien abduction. Fucking proper English. For fuck's sake. What's so hard about that, people? Not Aboat. not aboot. ABOUT. As in A BOUT of sickness. And people think people from the midwest say it wrong? She was only playing with the word to emphasize her point-how else would you say it? BEYYG?

@leoscope That''s the irony of it- the only people who seem to think saying "BAH-G" (as in, rhymes with wag, rag, tag, with an AH sound, not to be confused with AY...)...are those who have southern accents and can't pronounce basic english words properly. We're saying it RIGHT- that's the "accent" you detect. Just ask the English- it's their damned language- do they say "BAYG"? " nope. They sah bAg. These mooks think saying "beig" or beeyg" is right...it's the same sound as in Apple. sheesh! :P
