re: Why do some people say axe’ instead of ask when speaking?

Some people just don't spend enough time in the libary I guess.

Why do some people have a twang?

This gets to me. It's one of the most difficult things about listening to some country music.

Even though I spent the first 30 years of my life in southern Louisiana, it took my move to Houston to hear how retarded that accent/dialect sounds.

Since the goal in speaking is to have other people understand you and not be distracted by outside the mainstream speech noises, mine corrected over time.

Now I find myself distracted by the way my MIL and her sisters speak to each other. I notice it appears the older generation has it worse than the younger generation, where it's barely recognizeable.

black people do it to aggravate white people... white people do it to act like black people.

Freaking white bitches can’t pronounce the T in mountain drives me crazy

Ever talked to a white chick with money born and raised in Baton Rouge? It is impossible for them to pronounce an H properly. Like the word Home comes out as yahhhome. Somehow they place a type of West Coast valley girl emphasis on the H but they're not from Cali, they're from the armpit of South Louisiana IYKYK

I gave my girlfriend the crabs and hotel ery’body!

Chester drawers
Gramma seizure
Chest (for chess)
Smith & Western
And of course, axe

Because they know the key to my heart and how to cook old school Southern food.
