- Jeff Sessions has a very particular accent that even stands out in the south. We talk with Dr. Paul Reed from the University of Alabama about the reasons he talks the way that he does.

Very interesting, educational and catching video. I loved it, awesome...
Love lesson hear accent
He can say RECUSE real good.
Arte Johnson ( from laugh in ) looks like Jeff Sessions
Go back and listen to some George Wallace speeches (Southeast Alabama). The same old style non-rhotic accent. Its a beautiful accent to listen to!
I’m a linguistics student and !!!!!!
The Presidents quasi Queens-Brough-New York accent can be offensive to the ears of some sections of the country.
Jeff Sessions accent is a combination of his genetic makeup of Keebler Elf and Reptilian humanoid.
The Late Night Documentary Channel the late-night I think is funny I am from Alabama I think your statement is hilarious he does look like Pinocchio as well or something off Mister Rogers Neighborhood
That's the accent of my father's people (Clarke county) and my original accent. Mother's people (Marshall county) have the hard mountain R (Gov. Bob Riley).
When I started school I was made to take speech classes. I still remember the sentence well, "Wobewt had a wed woostew".
Kathryn Tucker Windham was another with this vanishing accent.
David - I find this very interesting - I am from Pa and my family was Pennsylvania Dutch (German) and had a specific accent, word usage and sentence structure that is slowly disappearing - "Throw mama from the train a kiss" - I know in the early 1900s Brooklyn it has been said you could tell what specific neighborhood someone was from by their Jewish accent - I also find it interesting when I watch Scotish programs on British TV - I know they are speaking English but I can't understand what they are saying - Language is amazing and precious - It is all we have to express our thoughts, ideas, and feelings - Young people have lost the use of descriptive adjectives and rely on just a few to express themselves - Jeff does sound like a caricature of a southerner good-old-boy - He is a colorful speaker
Mr. Magoo.
One Andy Griffith episode too many!?
I dont get the "aspirational " part of it . He came from a well to do family so he used less "r"... well okay then.
old aristocrats used say their r's like that
He is one of the few of us southern aristocrats left.
Guns burning crosses, and an
R' in front of the name.
Josh - Southern Aristocrat is an oxymoron
@@carolalter6697 look up Planter Class
X A N A X
Plantation Master Sessions.
Excuse me. I love Sessions. Respect pls
think 'reckon' would consider dissecting the way a black politician speaks? there are no bigger purveyors of double standards than white liberals.
Trump called Sessions an idiot...
moorelj69 they are all idiots. I didn’t vote for trump, nor can I stand him. I was just commenting on the fact that there’s no way they could do this for an African American politician for fear of the PC police. I love linguistics and took a couple courses in it in college, but there’s no way they would have the stones to delve into Artur Davis’ accent for instance.
So?
J Fine just FYI, there is branch of study called BVE that was "hot" w/scholars in the 90's. Depends on context, how a person's speech might be analyzed. Here, bc JS's is unique in the South, many ppl wonder. I didn't get the sense this was negative portrayal.
He talks like that because he's a little weasel.
