I loved watching every minute of this! I’m white, native Charlestonian, and I understood every single one from growing up on the barrier island. Thank you for giving me the biggest smile and sense of nostalgia I’ve had in ages. ❤
I'm from South East England and I think it's still pretty common for us to say 'chuck' to mean throw! 'Sorry, I chucked that out years ago.'
Born & raised in the lowcountry of S.C. and living in Iowa. It was great to see & hear sum stuff from down home in sandlapper country. Everything you said is just normal speech to me until someone says sumthin about what I've said. People are always sayin stuff and giving me a lot of reactions when I say ole (oil) or bole (boil), buggy (cart), days of the week like Mondee- Tuesdee (Monday- Tuesday)... Whenever I hear people tawkin like this, it's so relaxin to my soul. Thanks for the great video my brother. LORD GOD bless you & your family :-)
Haha my grandparents were from Macon GA and Chicago, and they all lost all the accent after moving, except for when they had to put "erl" or a "erl filder" in the car or it was time to "warsh" something up.
That and the response when you're asked a question that needs more explained or they couldn't hear anything that you said and just need it repeated louder:
"How you feeling today Grandpa?" "Do what?"
"Wow, it's really hot outside today.". "Do what?" Always made me smile because it was usually very strange response to what was said
I still have no idea if it's an "all-mend" or ah-mond" or" pee-can/peck-ahn"
Well I swuney, I'm going over yonder 😁
I moved to Charleston 20 years ago from New York. I feel so bad sometimes when I still struggle to understand what people are saying. I love the local accents, but I still struggle to understand at times 🤦♀️🤣
Yurrrr
I liked this tag... the Gullah/Geechie culture is so interesting. I’m from Alabama and we use fixin, yonder, up the road.
“Chuck me the ‘mote!” That’s how we talk, fr! 😂
Im from Florida but my family is from Brunson, Hampton, and Beaufort South Carolina. Also Hampton County during the early 1800s use to be Beaufort county.
i was in orangeburg for 2 months working, it was this one dude whenever i came back he’d be like “WAY (where) YOU BEEN AT” it took a me a minute to somewhat understand wth he was sayin😂 its crazy because when SC folks type and text, they do it exactly how they sound😂 “way” for “where” and “they” for “there” i miss the time i spent out there.. would love to go back
we were stationed in Beaufort in the early 80's and I enjoyed learning the culture the most!! hubby has relatives in Beaufort and Savannah and I LOVED talking with them and eating their delicious foods!! miss it!
Hey! Born and raised in Fairfax, 1960. My momma was from Brunson."Ova day" "Chuck" "ah'ight now" "ovah day yonda'" , oh yeah. My brother was king of Beu.
I apologized to my brother for missing a call from him. He lives in Seattle now. He messaged, "we can chop it up now". Took me a minute to realize what he was saying.
I’m from the low Kuntry and I thoroughly endorse this message
Aiken, SC and I've heard and said these all my life. Living in TN now and I loved your video. Miss home voices.
Ashley Oxendine thank you!!! Be on the look out for part two!!
@@thejayanddreshow7419 please do! My BF is from Florida and he cant understand me when I'm mad or have had a drink because I switch to Gullah X-D
Same. I grew up in 864, but I live in Germany now. I’m a long way away from family in Barnwell, Beaufort, and Martin. 🥲😭
I came across the video wanting to know more about my roots. My Maternal Grandfather’s people are all from Hampton County, a little town called Luray, South Carolina. They reside in Estill today.
Your family come from one of the majority black rural region of South Carolina! Known as the “low country”
(Jasper/Hampton/colleton/dorchester etc) All black everything from the small towns/ school districts/police departments/ black people own all that rural /land !! It’s a beautiful thing to see
"Dareckly"...
I'll be back dareckly...
Hey! This is Ms.Kelly! Lived in Hampton County SC for 21 years! I love my Hampton peeps!

By the way I was born in Charleston in the early 70s due to to my father being stationed at the Air Force base. But he is from Savannah. Lived there the first 3 or 4 years of my life until he got out the AF. Have family in Beaufort, Jasper and Hampton counties SC (Hardeeville, Beaufort, Hilton Head Island, Estill, Garnett etc).
My wife's father was from Beaufort County (Robertsville?). I could barely understand his mother before she died about 5 years ago. She talked fast and had a strong gullah accent.
My maternal grandmother family was either Estill or Garnett and she sounded a little like them. She was raised in Savannah. In Savannah a lot of the black people have a geochemical or gullet accent. Especially the ones that live near the water.
My father was from Savannah we had a house by west lake apartments in Liberty City..my mother was from Scotia “Heyward Town” my great grandmother worked on the plantation in Garnett and sounded like she was straight off the island!
@@thejayanddreshow7419 Meant to say Geechee and Gullah. Yeah one of my uncles lived in Westlake Apartments in the early and mid 80s. Right by Lamarville and the back side of Liberty City. My maternal Great Grandparents lived in Liberty City.
Thanks mate. Really interesting video. I'm from Australia and we say 'chuck' as well when we want someone to throw something (Chuck it here)
This is alot like Allendale County. I understood everything you said.
ova dey i ain’t even notice i said that until i moved to atlanta😂
Friends from Charleston would pronounce beer as bear. Their families were old Charleston families.
Your comment reminds me of my granny! 😆 She had a serious Charleston Brogue (the accent white Charlestonians have) but with that Gullah flavor. pronunciations like Bear for Beer, Tawlet for Toilet, Bald for Boiled, Tarcoals for Tacos, Geetuh for Gator, say'ven for seven, eet for eight and Gyms Island for James Island.
@@danielobrien1 my daddy born in 1951 grew up on John's Island and was infamous for saying everything you wrote the way you wrote it.
My boy was in the Superbowl last year in the Red Skins. He made some good plays.
@4:27 #7 that also Jamaican dialect too…

I live in Allendale County so I have to throw in some gangsta slang. They know me so they don't take insult to my rare inclusions.
Good evening..
thanks a lot for this video .. could i ask you about a certain pronuncation you uttered .. you said in the minute 06:35 "now south.." .. so, did you pronounce "south" with (th) or "souf" with (f) ?
Thanks a lot .
This is so crazy…being from Central Carolina…I follow everything you saying.
Central Carolina you mean Columbia lol
I was raised in Columbus GA and we use these words too 😊
From Australia and, untill now I thought everyone just chucked "chuck" into a sentence more readily than "throw".
Born and raised in Barnwell. Now live in Charlotte and ppl stay asking me where am I from or always telling me you sooo country.
Country for life and loving it! Born and raised about 1 1/2 hrs from Charlotte. Old time Charlotte had real country people until it blew up into a big city.

Reason for majority of this is simply naturally rejecting being ‘civil’-ized or colonized and taught a language that was not meant for us to begin with. The language of the English or the engl-ish language is a bastard or heathen language. No matter what they did to us...we still retained some part of our natural speech and language.
All glory and honor to ABBA YAHUAH for ALL truth the natural inclination to reject the ways of the heathens.
Born and raised in Hampton County between Varnville and Estill. One of those Busby Girls.

I was waitinh on boe.
Why is everyone hearing you say "chuck it"
I'm hearing "chunk it". I live in CA and have met a fair amount of hillbilly white dudes that say "chunk me that" asking for a beer or wrench or whatever.
