As a Canadian who lived in Wisconsin, Wisconsinites sound more Canadian than Canadians.
😂
So true
Accurate
Yoo that's exactly what I was thinking (from CT, USA)
that's weird I am from Wisconsin and I have no accent
"I don't have an accent" I say to myself listening to a man that supposedly has an accent but sounds normal to me
A S same here. I’m from Wisconsin too. He sounds normal to me
Sounds normal to me too
That because u live here It sounds Normal Too U I live here too
im from kentucky and he sounds pretty normal (but to be fair ky has a huge mix of people and most accents sound pretty normal to me)
A S I’m from California and he sounds normal
“ has anybody told you you have a voice for....print?”🤣
yes! a teacher when I was in 4th grade. 35 yrs later, my youngest son, who sings like an angel AND his grandpa, brought me to tears, when he said "you're not THAT bad!" Bless my Dad and my son!
That is the coldest burn i think i've ever heard, somehow 😂😂
There are plenty of Wisconsinites who appear to have no accent
Until they have to say the word "bag"
@B L boat. Coke
@@zarnold3409 lol I guess you're the exception! It's if you say bag like bay-g
I'm from pa born and raised and my husband makes fun of me for saying bag "like your from Wisconsin or Minnesota" (which then has him make fun of me for how I say them as well) I didn't really hear it till both he and my mother said I do. He will snicker from time to time and I know it's about the accent. No idea how I got it not a single person from the Midwest in my family or close friends.
That’s what betrays my Wisconsin roots. No accent until I say bag
Old coworker of mine was from the UP, and that was always his tell too. He travelled all over the place back when he was in the army and then a truck driver, but never lost the "bayg"
As a Wisconsinite myself, I gotta say my favorite accent is that of a upper. “Whatcha dooin fer da weekand we eh?”
Bruh I watched a movie called Fargo, and this is what they sound like to me. I was dying of laughter
Ikr down here in Milwaukee we really don’t have an accent but up north lol it’s crazy
@@teaminviminkook2794 I lived in milw for 23 years, went to Marquette. According to Illinois, even Milwaukee has accent
Bobby_Trill We have an accent to those from other parts of the US, not as strong as what he did though.
As a Yooper I send thanks.
Ask anyone from Wisconsin if they have an accent they will deny having one.
According to many English professors and dictation specialists, the "midwest accent" is considered to be the "proper" accentuation of the English language.
Coy Leigh As a British expat living in Wisconsin I would disagree, the dialects are more Irish, German and Norwegian . The closest I have come to a British accent is in Massachusets.
Everyone on TV sounds the same as us, sooo
@@sparrowfight5548 I've heard that linguists do not consider any of the modern UK accents to be closest to the most proper. I.e., being similar to a British accent doesn't mean it's correct, because British isn't the standard.
@@tylerpeterson4726 Well considering the primary roots of modern English originated within the U.K. so that makes sense. :)
That Wisconsin accent gets them people from Utah going.
It's me. I'm people from Utah and I can't get enough of the Wisconsin accent.
Saoirse Salander hey der, want me to talk dirty to ya? I live in Wisconsin 😉 my accent is super duper think !!
I'm from Wisconsin and living in Utah.
Um... thank you?
I appreciate it I guess😂
Lmao me too! It's like almost like us but not quite so we are just so intrigued
The best part about having a midwestern (Wisconsin) accent, It's incredibly easy to appear happy and kind, without even meaning to. :)
Coy Leigh western Wisconsin like la crosse has a really thick accent
Midwest Mopars I’m from la Crosse and I think the more up north you live, the more of an accent you have.
isnt la crosse a sport
is it named after the place
why did you make up such a sport
truth. Someone told me to go fuck myself the other day, I said "fuck you too" back and then instinctively ended it with "have a nice day". That ending bothered me for the rest of the day.
@@ghost2coast296 if anything it made it sound like what they said didn't bother you which really bugs some people.
Wisconsin accent is so contagious too lmao. I’m from Florida and went to a boarding school in Wisconsin and omg my southern accent is now mixed with this Wisconsin accent and it’s so hilarious when I’m like “Oh yah y’all take da roondaboot and turn left and all y’all will find da store.”
Wait, Wisconsin has boarding schools????!! When did that become a thing? 🤯
Love it.i could sit with a case of pabst and listen to you mash it up all night!
🤣🤣🤣🤣
I’m the same, but opposite lol :] I’m from Wisconsin and moved to Florida
it really is. My husband is from Ireland, and I'm from Ozaukee County. Never lived in Wisconsin with him, always Europe, where we met. He has adopted a few of our phrases and says them in a full Wisconsin accent when he's only been to Wisconsin to visit my parents a few times. Nothing funnier than a full Donegal accent mixed with an 'Oh God yah' or or 'Ope sorry!' or 'a couple three' in a full on Wisconsin accent.
The accent is real. And the token phrases are genetic. Our barely verbal autistic son says “ope”. I have never never taught him that. It’s lovely.
The “opes” are in the water
Everyone: Canadians are so nice
Reality: Wisconsinites are the people who you will bump into in the store and they'll just say "ope, so sorry for being in your way!"
I hope you stick what you said in your mouth and eat it. Go Pack! Yep. We are kinda pissy. Stay away from our state. Ha ha ha!
I, a Canadian went to a Canadian based Walmart today, and the aisles were just a chorus of sorrys as we all bumped our way to the KD and maple syrup.
As a Wisconsinite, I always say “ope. Excuse me”
@@amalayah637 "Ope - sorry bud" is me
Nick 😂
Our future would be so much brighter if we had a Mid-western news anchor
Lol, the funny part is that the standard American anchorman accent IS based on a generic Midwest accent!
I live in Germany for many years & my Wisconsin accent has helped me with my Deutsch.
I dont live there nor ever been there, (Germany) but learning german to understand some of the elderly in small towns around WI was relatively easy. So that would explain it.
When you can't hear his accent because you're from Wisconsin and have the same accent 😂
Does he have an accent?!? No way! 😄
I can hear his accent and I am from Wisconsin he sounds very country 🤣😂
😂
I was on a boat in Hawaii coming back from snorkeling talking to a guy from Minnesota about walleyes.. the whole boat was tuned into our conversation. Not because it was fascinating but because we sounded like Fargo 2.: lederhosen edition
🤣🤣🤣
Walleyes are the best fish ever.
@@nicholasavasthi9879 they’re so good
Minn ah soooootah Yeah Hey You betcha!
😂
i can confirm the wisconsin accent because i live here
GGaming lol I don’t have one. I’m From Madison!!!
...Eye will take you on your word ya
I’m in Grafton!

@@WordzMcgee Madison gang!
I was so unconvinced I had an accent until I went to college and I was like "ahhhh jeeeez" but then I figured out how to make my accent more neutral. But it comes out whenever I talk to friends and family back home 🙈
I find my accent comes out more after I've had a few.
Going to visit family is like supercharging my accent XD XD
After I spend a deer season with my grandpa and family friends, my online buddies can't recognize my voice when I get on discord the next week.
You sound more like Morty
@K lake Is it because the sentence ends with the word there, 9/10 times? (also followed by eh, once you've earned our trust)
I always denied the Wisconsin accent until I was in northern Minnesota for work and was asked if I was from Canada.... 🤦
"A voice... For print"
That's like having a face... That sound be on radio lol
That’s… that’s the joke. “A face for radio and a voice for print.”
I live in Menasha and the accent he's performing is a yooper accent.
"Ope!" And "Oh well hey there bud!" 2 of my favs
Love from Madison, WI
Anyone else notice an increase of "Opes" and "S'cuse me" usage due to the Holiday season?
That's cause there's a whole lotta more people in da way, don'tcha know?
I live in Neenah, Wisconsin. I can tell you there’s probably 6 different accents across the state.
I’m from Neenah, too! 😯
Yep.
You don't live far away from me😂
idk about that, how would u divide the regional accents up? I noticed people near dubuque/platteville even in small towns had less noticeable accents than most people further up north
As a Wisconsinite myself I can second this
I'm a Yooper that went to college in the Los Angeles area. I didn't realize I had an accent until one day in a physics lab, we had to make estimates and verify how close we were. After talking to my lab partner and then taking a break, other groups kept coming over and asking me for my estimates. Then they got more precise in asking me to say Aboot. (about...) We were all lucky to finish our work that day as it turned into "Doug say ______" for at least the last hour of that day. I've tried to shake it ever since, but if anyone plays anything from Da Yoopers, I can slip back in immediately!
LOL, I had a chemistry lab partner that moved to Michigan from LA. I played him a "Californians" sketch from SNL. He got upset and said he didn't talk like that, while talking like that, lol. Could be worse, brother...
Californian's have an accent that makes every other sentence a question. that's partly why i stay here in michigan
I was in Wal-Mart this week and literally heard a lady say, “Tell your folks I says Hi!!” Totally cracked me up.
My daughter was raised in Mexico, on the Caribbean. We moved to MN almost 4 years ago. Just the other day, "I'm just gonna squeeze by you" popped out of her mouth. We are doomed. :)
You can always tell if someones lives in Wisconsin or not by the way they say Wisconsin
Used to work with a born and raised Texan and she said Wess-con-sin accent on the first syllable. I loved it!
Truth!
YES OMG!
Wis can sin?
@@res1dentcyn1c Hi. The sound is kind of like a soft WH (as in whisper), Scon sin
When we moved to California from Milwaukee people would politely ask if we were Canadian.
Canadian? Apparently they couldn't hear the difference between Eh? and Hey!.
real question is why would you leave Milwaukee for any other place
I’m the opposite I moved from California to Wisconsin lol
Milwaukee - pronounced Mwaakee.
@@annahelander2881 Yep.
Andrej wouldn’t *
The first time i realized i had an accent was when I posted a video with my voice in it and someone was like “r u Canadian” and I’m like no? And they commented the next day “you’re from Wisconsin, aren’t you?”
No one calls me out on my accent until I say the word “Wisconsin” I guess the middle vowel hangs up in my nose too long. 🤪
I thought that everyone said “Ope” when they said sorry, but I am now just realizing from this comment section, we are unique ~_~
And that unique is quite charming I must say. ♥️
When my daughter and I heard about the “ope” thing, we were so confused...until we realized we were saying it but had never noticed! Never knew it was regional. We are in Nebraska!
I didn't even realize that I say it until I watched "ope school"
I say "ope" and I'm a New Yorker. None of my family members or friends are from the Midwest. I have no explanation for this.
@@Pr0fessorScience First confirmed COVID-like spread of ope?
I realized I have a midwestern accent when I watched Fargo.
Chris it was supposed to be a serious movie but I laughed through the whole movie! They nailed it!
the heck yes really got me in that movie
I have family up nort' in Minnesoooda... cripes, dat accent is strong up dere. HOT DISH not casserole.
@@darthbane8 I think it was always supposed to be darkly comic.
@@hopemccoy Haht dish.
I’m from Wisconsin but the very, very bottom. Literally 400 steps away from the Illinois border. But anytime I go somewhere outside of the proximity of my state, people say they can hear the accent. It gets inside of you. Feeds on you. Until one day, you mutter you’re first “aye?”. I wasn’t even born here. I’m from Chicago but moved here as a child. The accent grasp is STRONG.
Kenosha has three Wisconsin accents in the city, North, South and West side
It's ok, it means you no harm.
I'm from Chicago but ive never really noticed an accent when i come up to Wisconsin. What's funny to me is that people say we have an accent and i just don't hear it! 🤣
Like most accents, the Wisconsin accent is adorable! What is wrong with having an accent? Shows you've gotten away from where you grew up. That's an accomplishment. And if it's a foreign accent, shows you learned a new language. Even more impressive. We all have accents if we move from where we grew up. And I don't like to think one's better than the other.
The further north in wisconsin you go, the worse it gets. I have a hard time trying to understand those in the south of wisconsin since its like we speak a different language lol.
@@moonlitee I see- well that could be a problem lol.
One of my 1st trips to Mexico, on the last day (you know, killing time at the resort beach until you catch your flight), I was having a conversation with a couple who were doing the same, and we commented on each other's accents. I didn't really think I had one, and neither did they. So I asked them where they thought I was from. Wisconsin, bingo! They got me. But I also correctly guessed they were from Dallas - I nailed them right down to their actual city. We all think we sound normal, until we travel, and then reality points out how wrong we are.
Linguistically speaking, everyone has an accent. It's impossible to not have one. If you consider an accent "neutral", that probably means that's the one that is considered proper, standard or correct. Doesn't mean it is, it's a completely socially given idea and has no real standing. I'm Californian and speak in what's called Standard American dialect, the one you hear in the news or in most movies etc. Most people with it would say we don't have an accent but you do, you just don't realize it or identify it as one.
I'm a linguist xd
I study languages, dialects and accents being a part of that lol
@@greenlilac32 I’m from SoCal and I concur. Where do you think, or learnt, the ‘standard accent’ comes from? Obviously accents on the east coast/Midwest came from settlers from different countries. How/where did it change for the lower west (AZ, CA, NV) who seem to have that ‘standard dialect’? Do we know?
@@eaglelove00 it was probably the isolationism, the West being an essentially separate identity formed by settlers from all over the East.
To have a sort of common culture, they likely connected in school and sort of settled on an agreed common accent that the kids took to easily regardless of how their parents spoke, whether knowingly or not I can’t say.
So yeah, my though is that it was likely the result of attempting to mediate their inherent speech differences.
But what do I know? I’m just an Italian-Mexican teenager from Italy that immigrated to the US (Colorado) and then moved to Pennsylvania. All I really know for sure is that I have an Italian accent in my Spanish, an American accent in my Italian, and my English is just interesting. According to friends and teachers, I don’t speak like an American. My English is like California English (never even been close to California in my entire life haha) but I utilize words and phrases that are technically correct to use, but that most people wouldn’t normally use.
For example, where most people would say “subway” for the high speed trains used for public transport, I say “metro” which is common in Europe, including the UK, and it’s apparently these minute differences that make my English sound… not accented, but weird to native speakers.
That, and I also move my hands A LOT when talking, but that’s a different factor altogether.
@@potatobird52 how interesting. My grandparents were from Italy and my father was east coast. My mother from TX. I’m born and raised in California. It is interesting how much your speech is reliant on outside factors. Thanks for sharing your experiences. I talk with my hands a lot… that Italian is strong in me 😂😂
@@eaglelove00 can’t fight the hand genes haha
Cool to hear! I always thought southern accents were awesome, but to be honest I have yet to hear one in person. Does your mom still have an accent (assuming she had one to begin with) or has she lost it in California?
I'm from Minnesõta
I can't hear his accent
oh yer from minnie sota der ey?
@@nekkobat6876 yä bud
😂
OH! Yer from Minnesoda der, bud? Wouldn'tcha know it, I am as well! Say hi to yer mom and dad for me, okay?
Same
He honestly sounds really Wisconsinite when he isn’t actually trying to do it lol
I live in Green Bay & here we speak with a "Packer" accent!!
Go PACKERS!
Charlie has the manitowoc accent but he tends to exaggerate it a bit for humor
I live in Wisconsin and I always thought I sounded the same as everyone but apparently it’s noticeable
well, yah dere ya sound the same... as everyone else in Wisconsin!
Everybody has an accent. Even standard English that is considered to be accentless has an accent as you can tell they aren't from your neck of the woods.
I didn't watch this vid, I'm waiting for the manuscript to be published.
WiscoFun,
😂🤣😂
Charlie will laugh at this if he sees the comment; I think! 💕
Yep... I'm from NZ and after living and working in Wisconsin I came home with an exotic Green Bay accent!
The smile/grimace he does afterwards lmao
With half my family from Michigan and the other half from Missouri, I've got an amazingly bastardized accent; "Ope soory bud, I ain't see yall there".
The “stop and go lights” thing makes me laugh, because I grew up in the southwestern part of Wisconsin, and I never them called that until I moved to the southeastern part of the state. We always called them stoplights.
What else would you call the red ones? The "stop and go lights" must be the blinking ones.
Uffda!
@@katydidiy Giggled out loud!....
@@katydidiy oops!
@@katydidiy Or is it 'Oofta'?
I am from the West Coast and live in Wisconsin now and YES, it is a real thing 🤣 I think it’s an adorable accent.
Agree!
I've been in Canada, Hawaii, Alaska, west coast & east coast of the U.S. They all nailed my Wisconsin "accent"...that I don't have!!! lol Ope...sorry!!!
and ya....I'm born & bred up Nort Wisconsin....about 80 miles south of Superior...we fight more with the Mn mud ducks than FIB's!!! lol
I found out I have a WI accent when I went to college in Iowa and my roommates let me know. It has gotten a lot better but still slips out when I am tired.
Same for me, tired, or irritated. Thats when it really comes out.
I had just graduated high school and was spending some time on the east coast. Somehow everyone knew I was from Wisconsin and I was in denial about my accent
I’m from SOUTHWEST WISCONSIN... about 15 years ago I was doing a training class for farmers in the thumb of Michigan... lower Michigan... after I was done teaching for a few hours more than one farmer cane up to me and asked if I was from the U.P. Of Michigan... I was line WHAT!!!! Do I sound that bad????
Gina Della from Pella commercial says it all. That's the most Wisconsin accent I've ever heard.
I would watch the news more frequently if the anchors talked like 1:03
You may think you have lost your accent, but you haven't: I left rural Sussex, in SE England, nearly 50 years ago, but when I go to visit my cousins, who still live in my home village, I drop straight into the accent, I can't help it. My maths teacher was from the north of England, he loved my village accent: if he asked me a question I knew that the answer either ended in 9 or 5 because he liked to hear me say 'noine' or 'foive',
Math not maths! 😎
That always gets me too. I don't think of myself as having an accent (I'm from the East Coast) but if I ever have to say 9 or 5 then it comes out as "nahn" or "fahv."
First time I knew mine was heavy was when I went to Florida for school and got asked if I was from Canada all the time
This is more of the upper north Wisconsin
appleton is not up north and i went to school with plenty of people who talked like this.
I'm from Louisiana, but I can relate to this humor, just with a different accent. So funny!
It's like watching "Fargo" with people not from the Upper Midwest and wondering what they're all laughing at so hard.
I didn't know I had an accent at all until we moved from Madison, WI to CO, almost two years ago. The thing is, I don't sound all twangy or say my words that way. The only people in WI that talk somewhat that way are rural people, for the most part. Most of us didn't grow up out in the country!
Hold up... most of Wisconsin is rural
And even so, you still have an accent. You just didn't know it. Sure, the more rural northern regions is stronger, but even cities like Milwaukee and Madison have one.
@@pegmarinello3188 not by population. And that particular (exagerated) accent is more from areas where there were large numbers of Scandinavians. The people who are more Germanic sound different. I have lived in the state (north central and then southeastern) my whole life and I consider that sort of accent to be associated with much smaller, rural, communities. Some things are the same ("bayg" and "ope," but no one I have ever really been around says "dat" or "dere." That sounds more yooper to me.
Lived in Wisconsin for most of my life then moved to Ohio and was laughed at for more than a couple words I say in a strong Wisconsin accent. Not even being able to identify which ones is the worst. I know pretty much anything with the long ‘a’ sound and ‘o’. Also saying ‘oop’ when you almost bump into someone. Can’t even train yourself not to.
It's spelled ope
"Bubbler" is pretty specific to Wisconsin. We don't say that in Minnesota.
Bubblers
Cheeseheads
Cribbage
ope
bean bag toss
stop-and-go light
raaaanch
Baaaag
(G)
Sodie pop. Ya dare hey. Go ahead and ask for a drinking fountain and watch for the blank stares.... ah yeah, do u mean the bubbler? 😂😆
You never realize you have one until someone calls you out on it. Now it’s more than obvious to me
My Mom's entire family came from Wisconsin (after falling off der boat from der olden coumtry), and I can honestly say that Mom and both her sister's died speaking with that Wisconsin accent. One sister ended up in Idaho, one in New Jersey, and one here in Indiana.
The Wolverine accent held true and strong.
Listening to Charlie is music to my ears.
Keep er movin der guy! Love ya!!!!
"voice for print"! You should trademark that line.
Been in Wisconsin my whole life and never heard anyone call it a stop and go light. Lol usually just call it the light. "At the light, turn left" or whatever. Either the light or the stop light.
Canadians and wisconsin talking aboot how they are so similar
Minnesotan (Canada Jr.): 😢 am I chop lutefisk to you!?
I was born and raised in Wisconsin, and yet people say that I have a British accent.
Most people suck at identifying accents!
I had someone once ask if I'm from Ireland--I've never even visited! I think it was because I picked up a little bit of my mom's (light) Boston accent and they were just really bad at identifying it lol
I can hear it
We were at Disney World many years ago and the guy checking us in at the hotel asked if I was from Wisconsin - I said close, Michigan
Met my husband on fb. He is from Washington state, and the first time we talked on the phone he was like "oh my, you have a Chicago accent" Then we both became yoopers, and the rest is history.
My kids told me, a "Milwaukeean" (26 years here!), that I have an Illinois accent (Yes, I was born a FIB). I said, "Oh, really? How do you know?"
My daughter says to me, "You say 'whiz-CAHN-sin'."
My son says to me, "We say 'wuh-SCON-sin'."
And yes, I say "Milwaukee", not "Mi'waukee".
One question - is it Pee-waukee or Peh-waukee?
And don't forget to put the accent on the first syllable of Berlin.
It's Pee WAU kee. Don't ask me why it's not Peh waukee.
@@johnperrigo6474 Right? After all, it's Mi'waukee. So why not Pi'waukee?
Well it's actually pronounced Muh-WAU-kee. The Muh is very important. 😆
During WWI my town, LaCrosse, got so pissed at Germany, they changed Berlin St to Liberty St.
@@katydidiy - Of course Berlin St. in Waupaca got pronouncd BER-lin as well. It's County E heading down to Poy Sippi.
Oh ya, ya, dat dare is a Wisconsin accent, dontcha know. 😉
Ay that is from North Wisconsin
I can’t believe I completely understood and read this in the accent in my head
Um...we don't say donchano. That may be upper penninsula Michigan
I moved to Wisconsin from Iowa 7 months ago (but grew up in Kansas) and apparently I've already picked up the accent.
If ya like yur Doctor ya can keep ya Doctor ? Jeez what a nice Prezident 😂😂😂
I didn't think I had one until college. My dorm was a mix of Ohioans from all over the state and the 3 of us from the south were immediately grouped together since we don't pronounce the "g" at the end of an "ing" word. None of us realized it until that day.
I’m from the south and I can usually hide my accent pretty well until another person from the south talks to me then I just go right back to the voice.
I don't have an accent, you do!
hey dats my line
@@CharlieBerens when we moved to Georgia from Wisconsin I seriously needed an interpreter! I got teased for saying pop and bubbler for years!
Hope Smith Polk It’s interesting you said both pop and bubbler. Bubbler I thought was centered in Milwaukee, which also says soda. I grew up in Beloit saying pop and drinking fountain. I had to switch to saying soda when I moved to Milwaukee so I didn’t have to keep repeating myself when ordering. Never did get used to bubbler though.
Ohio here. Back in the 90's, we met a new apartment neighbor from WI and yea, he def had an accent. Although we call soda "pop", he almost called it soder, lol.
Do a rip about the bumpy Wisconsin roads in spite of high taxes
Nah, look across the lake
I vacation in Wisconsin and every year we see another family that lived their whole lives there and funny enough they have a son my age named Nick, I played pool with him a couple times but I must say watching shows like Letterkenny has helped me understand their regional dialect
Your stand up is fantastic!!! I only ever seen your skits, never your stand up this was a treat
I so appreciate that this video has captions!!
I’m sure everyone who moved away has the same experience. I did when I moved to sunny Cali. I got teased a lot. They would say, “are you from the Midwest because you have an accent?” I would reply, “oh heck no der guy I don’t have one, dont cha know!” I’ve lost most of it except when I talk to family back home or watch your videos der guy! Great bit!
haha once beers come out it's game over for me
You don't even have to go that far. Heck, even my michigander cousins give me a hard time for my accent.
Ja. The accent doesn't really go East. It continues West through Minnesota and North Dakota though.
The breath you took before taking on the accent😂😂
Lol!! I had no idea too until I was 21 and moved to Phoenix. I still do it at times 10+years later and 3000 miles away. Especially when drunk 🤣
Thanks for the captions!
Lol! Do another on the grocery store!! I.e. Milk, soda, etc.
To be honest, I had no idea saying ope was just a midwestern thing. Now that I think about it, I do have a small accent.
I watched this video but I didn’t hear an accent. Then I remembered I grew up in Wisconsin and still love here.
I live in South Central (right by Madison) WI and I kind of have a Wisconsin accent, but I don’t at the same time.
I was in San Diego talking to a lady and she asks me, “Are you from St. Paul, Minn?” I said “No, why?” She said ”You sound just like my sister-in-law.” I said, “Huh, that’s weird because from I’m from Apple Valley, that’s like 20 miles southwest of St. Paul.”
My grandmother and aunt live in Rosemount. Small world eh
You mean 20 minutes, right?
@@lucygoose6237 - Yes, yes I do. 😂
My accent gets more intense when I go back to my hometown for a bit and then fades when I go back to college 😂
Just discovered you and I'm binging at 3 a m in Northern Mi. What a hoot!
a voice for print, a face for radio.
I LOVE the Wisconsin accent! I get denying an accent tho hahaha I'm Australian but I pretty much REFUSE to watch Australians on tv because we just sound sooooo dumb when not in person hahaha
I'm a Midwestern American, but I can't get enough of OzzyManReviews. Women are Sheila's to me, now.
@@MrRedberd lmao love that
The northern version is a bit different. More drawn out vowels and less nasally.
From southern wi so we don't have much of an accent, just thought it's funny how we're literally the only state to have a bubbler.
I feel weirdly at home in this comment section.
I know your pain. Every time I go out of state! Never knew we had an accent till i went to Florida.
Southern Born Northern Raised #yeahFlorida
I’m from Michigan where we have a similar accent but it’s s stop light! Go Packers.
Yoopers are typically the ones with accents. Most other parts of Michigan aren't like that.
David Dow I’m a native Michigander, we have distinct nasally accents
@@daviddow5591 yoopers have more than an accent, they have a freaking dialect lol but we also have accents. My friend talked to some people from Oregon and they knew she was from Michigan because her accent gave it away
I too am a Native Michigander. I don't have any friends from outside of Michigan, so maybe I just don't notice the accent.
Stop and go for sure. You don't just stop there!!
I was born in wisconsin and lived in wisconsin until I was 4. I lived 20 years of my life growing up in another state. I never thought there was anything different about how I talked tbh, until one day a girl in high school asked me to say "I have a bag of magazines in my wagon". I was so confused about why she found this sentence so amusing for me to say, until I realized that, despite living in a completely different Midwestern state with a different accent, this was like the one major part of the wisconsin accent I had unknowingly retained. I have a very soft wisconsin accent even though I now live in wisconsin again. I sometimes catch myself talking with a stronger accent, that even to me, sounds obnoxiously stereotypical.
Our family moved to NY when I was 2 and my wife brings my Wisconsin accent to my attention whenever I have two tree beers! I'm 59 for cripes sake!!
