More Pineville Accent Adjustments...!

Although we've been here now for almost a year, I am still adjusting to the southern twang!

Normal Speech that I'm Used To - Pineville Twang:
"you guys" or "you all" is now "you ns" or just plain ol' "ns"!!
"cooking" is now "cucking"!
"took" is now "tuck"
"window" is now "winder" or "winda"

And you can bet any words with the "i" sound will be stretched out a mile long!

I'm used to referring the three meals of the day as: "Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner". In Pineville it's: "Breakfast, Dinner, and Supper" or other wise known as just "Breakfast, Deener, and Suppa" or Supp"

If someone feels really bad for you or sympathizes with you, or if someone thinks you're nuts or crazy, you're sure to hear these following words: "Bless your little heart!" Trust me, you can tell the difference between whether they sympathize with you, or if they think you're nuts!

Most the time, they think this "Northerner" is nuts!!! :) So yes, I hear the phrase "Bless your little heart" ALOT!! Oh well! :)
