I remember someone in the comments said they sound like one of the English dialects up north. Really cool
the consensus among most linguists is that most Southern dialects evolved by "slowing down" different English accents. I think that theory definitely holds water, because both English and Southern accents are pronounced using the front of the mouth. Yanklish uses the throat and the nose instead.
Supposedly Shakespearean era common English sounded a lot more like the Southern accent than anything in the UK today. I heard it was like a twangier pirate accent or something.
it was more twangy, but it was still distinctly British. Don't listen to American we wuzzing about it. I think the closest modern equivalent would be the West Country accent in England. It's likely that is how Jefferson and Washington would have spoken.
from what i understand, rp pretty much came from the nobles all going to one speaking school in the east midlands and then everyone else copying them
all "standardized" forms of English are cancer. I unironically admire blacks for keeping their dialects alive even if they are ooga booga tier. Black families have also kept a lot of Southern speech alive that is increasingly falling out of use with young people in the South who adopt Yanklish from TV and movies.
NEED a gf lads
Mass media will be the death of regional accents. Mark my words.
autistic thread tbqh
autistic non-whites will preserve it
just like that one japanon that speaks basque
wtf why is the isis flag on the American one
>just like that one japanon that speaks basque
he doesn't speak it, he just studied it for a bit. i talk to him some
>just like that one japanon that speaks basque
Never heard of him before. Sounds like a smart dude.
Not bully Malaybro.
that's what's so interesting about ebonics desu
instead of assimilating into how mass media says they should speak, they instead managed to make their linguistic identity even stronger than it was before using tools like the internet. No other subculture in the US has managed to achieve this.
Maybe it's just the fact that you can't mock a black person for having an accent without being called racist, but it's perfectly okay to stigmatize every white dialect.
Now that you mention it, yeah, that is weird. Whenever you hear recordings of black folks from back in the '30s or something they always sound much closer to having a standard "white southerner" accent than now.
You're probably right about it coming from a certain societal position they have. That and/or how blacks seem less likely to intermingle among different groups.
yeah that's another thing, they face a lot of peer pressure speak like they do. Wish we would do the same thing with all the 20 somethings in the South who speak like they're from Iowa or some shit.
The Quebecois do a similar thing up here. There's this really powerful unspoken contempt for any accent or language that isn't their own, so you kinda get forced to adopt their weird hick Frenchman thing when you live there.
Newfies will probably have an easier time keeping their accent than the rest of us too just because they're so culturally insulated and patriotic.

This post is unintentionally very funny

Only through thorough investigation can the legitimacy of anti-corruption assets be approved
This is the same reason the Congress of South Dakota had to "break" it's own constitution to prevent Initiated Measure 22
>Measure 22
What's that?
yee
not funny
Massachusetts-lead "anti-corruption" bill that was so poorly defined that it essentially gave the Governor the ability to found a committee, requiring no credentials, with no oversight, independent of the justice department, which had the ability to decide who could and could not run for office, whether speaking to a lobbyist could count as a conflict of interest, prevented lobbyists from spending $100 or more in their political affairs, created a "New tax" to fund for anyone who wanted to run for office, but their candidacy must be approved by the aforementioned anti-corruption commission
It also prevented legislators from becoming lobbyists until two years had passed since the end of their office
It was a straight-to-ballot law, a referendum, and was advertised as weeding out the "corrupt state" during the time where Trump had whipped up a massive amount of people supporting the idea of "draining the swamp"
Scary stuff. Were lots of people in favour of it at the time?
Yorkshire is kinda like the South of England desu (except it's in the north).
yeah but south english accents are disgusting
except for devon, devon's nice

It won 51.6% to 48.4%
Most of the advertisements about it were outright lies and the summary on the ballot was the actual language in the bill itself, it was that lacking in depth
The majority of the bills was quite literally fluff saying that the measure should be introduced instead of, say, the legal language of the bill itself
Despite the fact that the legislation introduced the better aspects of IM22 like preventing lobbyists from spending for legislators outside of dining and paying for transport to state-sponsored events and preventing legislators from becoming lobbyists for two years, and limiting campaign contributions, this same Massachusetts based company is pushing a bill that is pretty much the same thing but it now specifies that the ethics committee that reviews and can decide of a conflict of interest is treasonous must be made of SD registered voters and must be "nonpartisan," consisting of FORMER legal officials to be appointed by and unappointed by...
The Governor
They still didn't even define the budget for their committee, and also repealed ALL laws relating to SD's anti-corruption legislation in favor of this
What the fuck is this shit
