@dmod nj, I don't know about that! LOL!I think you are being facetious. My SIL is born and bred NJ, and she has a strong accent. We all think we are accentless. According to the map that someone posted, I have a Canadian accent...never heard of that before!
When I lived down South along the Gulf, I was talking to a tv anchor. She said that they are all taught in college to talk like me. She was working on losing her accent, and she actually called me a couple times to ask how a Northerner would pronounce a particular word!
Hi @Yardlie yes, I was just teasing. I have a strong Jersey/NY accent. One parent was from the Bronx, the other Jersey.
There are several posters on these boards whom I've met or speak with on the phone. They will absolutely tell you, I have an accent. LOL So do they!! lol
