Where you are from really does not seem to be important here as mastering
the proper attitude. They are naturalizing immigrants every day.
It really speeds up the process if you understand the two syllable words
like "Ya-Us" (yes) and "ME-Yun" (men). It is best that you listen quite a
while before attempting to reproduce the pronunciation. It is really
offensive if executed poorly.
I have been politely informed on several occasions that Southerners speak
slowly and listen slower. And that I am to consider that any time I speak.
I am not sure I should share the secret but I have also been told that the
main reason for the Southern talk is because the Yankees find it so
annoying.
I have figured out on my own that their main use for me is to attend
meetings where there will be other coarse and crass Yankees to assure that
their points will be made. It works.
In time I expect to be fully assimilated and a fresh Yankee will be needed
to serve that function. I have no proof, but I think the honeysuckle flowers
have something to do with it!
Did you know that the city of Cary, NC is really an acronym?
It stands for "Containment Area for Relocated Yankees"!

Rodeo (I'm not making that up) do they count as a southerner or a Yankee?
Some of the folks from south NJ have a hard time talking with the "soprano"
