"Hey, you guys!" is only correct if you are Rita Moreno Joel - 27/07/2015 04:15:07 AM 813 Views
Perhaps, but you're also wrong. Min Farshaw - 27/07/2015 04:45:48 AM 1063 Views
Both spellings are "correct" to the extent EITHER are. Joel - 27/07/2015 05:04:43 AM 1039 Views

That is because your fascist indoctrination prohibits viewing PBS' communist indoctrination Joel - 29/07/2015 01:54:30 AM 925 Views
It is also correct if you are Sloth... on a pirate ship... *NM* MightyYT - 29/07/2015 07:09:56 PM 684 Views

The Southern dialect is the largest by what metric? Joel - 27/07/2015 06:26:20 PM 957 Views
It also the accent most similar to what Victorian brits would have spoken random thoughts - 27/07/2015 07:45:09 PM 888 Views
Whoa, now: The PIEDMONT accent may be closest to Received Pronunciation, but is not the whole South Joel - 28/07/2015 12:37:56 AM 973 Views
I don't make the catagories but all the southern accents tend to be close *NM* random thoughts - 28/07/2015 02:12:15 PM 651 Views
Except, as you noted, Virginias accent is closer to Englands (and New Englands, and South Africas) Joel - 28/07/2015 11:00:46 PM 937 Views
that is not what I said random thoughts - 29/07/2015 02:14:49 PM 949 Views
Sorry, I credited you w/knowing the Deep South, Appalachia and TX sound nothing like any UK accents Joel - 29/07/2015 07:42:21 PM 926 Views
read slower and then read again until you understand what I said random thoughts - 29/07/2015 08:14:19 PM 1165 Views
"The people in the American South were Victorian Brits"?! I must have read that too fast Joel - 29/07/2015 10:39:08 PM 907 Views
Erm. Not really sure what you're saying here... Legolas - 29/07/2015 11:35:26 PM 864 Views
Would "UK English" have been better? Joel - 30/07/2015 10:47:53 PM 910 Views
Not really. Legolas - 31/07/2015 07:30:41 AM 874 Views
Like in most things Joel is wrong. The US has the larget population of English speakers random thoughts - 31/07/2015 03:20:51 PM 957 Views
As in most things, you admit failure to do your homework yet still claim absolute certainty Joel - 10/08/2015 02:30:34 AM 1057 Views
David Crystal estimates proficient non-natives outnumber native English speakers 3:1 Joel - 10/08/2015 02:45:58 AM 842 Views
Interesting stuff. Legolas - 10/08/2015 07:12:26 PM 943 Views
what is not now considerd a proper British accent is called Received Pronunciation random thoughts - 31/07/2015 03:11:36 PM 1134 Views
I already explicitly referenced RP at least twice in response to you (also: Still not a DIALECT) Joel - 10/08/2015 02:33:17 AM 1149 Views
Actually, since you got me thinking, please enlighten us: What would you call YOUR English dialect? Joel - 30/07/2015 11:19:06 PM 954 Views
I assume it would besouthern but it is hard to judge yourself random thoughts - 11/08/2015 08:22:34 PM 934 Views
Sorry I did not put enough research into what I consider trivia but the point is stil valid random thoughts - 30/07/2015 01:30:39 PM 933 Views
Ok they sounded more like the British at the beggining of the Victorian era random thoughts - 30/07/2015 01:34:15 PM 964 Views
Trivial or not, absolute assertions absent even cursory verification invite trouble Joel - 30/07/2015 11:12:01 PM 948 Views
The Brits didn't change theway they spoke until the 19th century. random thoughts - 31/07/2015 02:50:23 PM 988 Views
