I say Nevada "Ne-va-da" The 'a' in the 'va' like the 'a' in cat. If that made any sense at all. And I say Oregon "Or-e-gen" I've been to Nevada and Oregon MANY times, and my dad is from Oregon so I know how to say it right.

My family (and town) have a horid accent...the whinny A noise...plus my grandparents love to shorten words and names ...like my aunt Colleen is just Clean
We shall nonetheless move forward to carve a name for ourselves in the annals of bold insurgency and death-defying derring-do. Once I have a keen blade at my hip and the Jolly Roger is flapping high above me, I believe I will find my true calling.
Um, I can't think of anything else except they say Oregon "Ore-gone" and Nevada "Nev-ah-da" It makes me want to kick them in the face.
GAH!!!!!!!!!
haha my friend moved to New Hampshire and the first thing she told me was how these weird people used wicked and she wanted to punch them in the face for it
haha! When I moved here, I was like wth are you people talking about?!? Everyone is SO different here than in CA.
Oh! I thought of something else. Something you hear when asking for directions: "You can't get thaya from heeya"
And another thing. If you're not a native of Maine, you are "from away"

I concur with the person who said every carbonated drink is a coke.

Sounds similar to Indiana...in text anyway, haha. I hate 'warsh' and 'libary'.

Ah, typing in the party thread brought my attention to another. I'm not sure if I picked this up in Indiana or St. Louis...when something hurts, you say it 'smarts'. I burned my hand with my straightening iron and it smarts pretty good.
