Are there any words that rhyme with "syrup"?
Depends. My wife is from South Carolina and calls it "SEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE-rip!" With like 3 syllables. Nothing could possibly be made to rhyme with that.
I'm from upstate NY and pronounce it almost like "stirrup," so there's a rhyme right there.

I grew up in Upstate New York, but I've lived in Texas for 22 years now, so my accent has morphed a bit.I grew up in Eagle River, Alaska...and someone freaked me out once commenting on my "Alaskan Accent"...there IS no such thing...but they had no clue that I'd lived there before!!!!
Sarah Palin has an accent, to my ears. But I don't know if she's a native Alaskan. But yeah, most Alaskans I've met have neutral accents.

Honestly...Palin to me sounds like she's from Minnesota...and nobody else I know from Alaska (especially Wasilla where she's from) sounds like she does....
Funny, we call it "sizzzzzzuurp"...Are there any words that rhyme with "syrup"?Depends. My wife is from South Carolina and calls it "SEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE-rup!" With like 3 syllables.

LOL!
You pronounce it "skreet"?
Yes. Whenever I saw Palin, I heard "Minnesota". (Then I started muting the TV whenever she was on, and our relationship dramatically improved.)

Same thing with Shania Twain, Britany Spears, and just about any other vapid chick...

HONESTLY? Easy on the eyes? Ick...not even in a school marmish way with Palin's glasses and hairdo do I find her to be attractive...
Now, what's her name from 30 rock and SNL that did the Palin impersonation...now her...whoa.....particularly so even in the Palin conservative outfit...whoa...
Ok, must...stop...think....

If Shania Twain was at issue, it wouldn't matter. I'd never hear a word she said due to visually-induced music I'd hear in my mind whenever she spoke in my direction. I guess I'd learn to read lips...
Ahhh...I feel...more focused now...

Many, many more slang terms around my group of friends
Hey it changed my word! That was not used in the naughty way. Oh well. It's supposed to be kunt-ree.

"Skreet" isn't street slang here. "Stank" is pretty much universal, the rest? Yeah, pure Little Rock :)
Tina Fey? Chick needs to eat a sandwich (or twelve)...
Yeah...Tina Fey....a sandwich or twelve? What, you sayin she's dinin at Callista Flockheart's Diner (specializing in Ethiopian entrees..diner open 'til 12am)? NAH...she looks just fine....doesn't look boney at all to me...
One time, when I was at working at this pizza place in the mall, this British lady came in there to eat. I told her that her accent was cool and she got ticked off! She said that I was the with the accent and her country came up with the language and all this other stuff. It was crazy!

She would have been right, in London :)
And, while the English did, in fact, invent English, I still insist that a boot goes on your foot, a bonnet is headgear, cake is not a "pudding", and "to knock someone up" results in marriage or child support...
The Scottish gal in our office uses me as an interpreter when she talks with the native Texans.
While in Texas I was often accused of being Australian because of my accent ...
"Yew shure dew tawk funee!"

I get used as translator almost everywhre I go, because I am so good at speaking Spanglish.

China's sister in law has a Scottish friend, it's funny watching the Scottish chick and China's West Texas family members converse. Like watching a tennis match when the players are using broken rackets...

You would hate to be in Texas. We speak that way ALL the time. Some other nuances we Texans have is the use of the word "ain't" and exchanging the words "got" and "have". Here's an example: "I got five dollars" instead of saying "I have five dollars". I'm usually one of the worst perpetrators of doing all of the above. ;)"He should of stopped that woman."
I California we would say "I ain't got five dollars" instead of "I don't have five dollars".
a bonnet is headgear, cake is not a "pudding"
A 'hood' is headgear too.
a bonnet is headgear, cake is not a "pudding"A 'hood' is headgear too.
No. A "hood" is a place with houses...that people grow up in.
While in Texas I was often accused of being Australian because of my accent ...
"Yew shure dew tawk funee!"
But you were in El Paso! They have New Mexico (or Spanish) accents!
:)
There were still a few bitter cowboys hanging about. They were more Texan than Texans, I think it was compensation for the rapid Latinization (or would that be Re-Latinization, since we took El Paso from the Mexicans in the first place?) of their area.

And taking the piss...well, is not urination...
The best accent related comment my ex ever received (she was from the North of England)...
"That is the worst fake english accent I've ever heard"
We were standing in line at the drink stand at the Maryland Rennaisance Festival...two of the "actors" were behind us....

You mean the "re-latinization after the de-apachification (Kiowa and Mescalero tribes) by the Spanish", right? ;)
I love telling my Chicano friends that the Aztecs never came this far north, so the whole "Atzlan" movement is based on a nice myth :)

However, there is some historic evidence that the Aztecs may be a branch off of the Hopi or Anasazi.
Puddings aren't cakes. I'm with you on these others, HD, but puddings are the British's gift to the palettes of the world. Accept the pudding, and your joy will know no bounds.

Yeah, perhaps, get the mitochondrial DNA people on that, but my point is, Spanish isn't any more "native" to the area than English :)

Being a long time food service person, whenever a Brit wanted to look at our dessert tray, they'd ask for our "pudding list", so I took it to just mean "dessert".
...Yeah, perhaps, get the mitochondrial DNA people on that, but my point is, Spanish isn't any more "native" to the area than English :)
Never claimed they were, but they WERE in EP before the Anglos, and I'm thinking they'll be there after as well ;) Pure demographics ...
And if you want to nitpick, how long do you have to wait until you are native? Technically speaking no human is 'native' to the Americas, we all came over from elsewhere, it's just a matter of time scale ...

My brother checks Native American on all the forms. His argument is that he was born hee so he's a native.
It's fun to talk to Brits about their experiences with "pudding" in the states. They look at Jello pudding and shake their heads...go to London, Derek, and get you some pudding!
Every night in the crypt of St Martin-in-the-fields, they have soup and pudding night, a different soup and a different pudding each night. You can eat there every night...

I live in California, and I ain't got no idear what all y'all is talkin bout, dude. ;-)
Actually, with my teaching job, I deal much more with generational language issues than regional ones. Something a person likes is "tight," and a private person doesn't want to be "put on blast."
Sheesh, young whippersnappers -- GET OFF MY LAWN, er, language!

LOL! Thats funny. My best friend is my 16 year old lil cuz. He has a habit of making me feel old all the time (and im only 24). He is always telling me that a song is old, or noone says that phrase anymore.
idearOh god we have that one in FL i can think of no greater travesty than pronouncing the non-existant r in idea. I can stomach people who say I have an ideal, but if they say I have an idear i shudder.
The only one that makes me cringe more than idear is worsh, as in I worshed the car. My father-in-law always says it that way and it drives me nuts.
Oh, and also nucular instead of nuclear. There is only one u in nuclear!
Sheesh, young whippersnappers -- GET OFF MY LAWN, er, language!
Dang it boy! That's my line!
NOW GET OFF MY LAWN!!!!!
Little bastards.
Try a little NE dialect! Not only do we speak twice as fast as most folks we drop our 'r's in some words and tack them on to others! It's wicked pissah!
