- THE CAROLINA BROGUE (full movie)
This public television special; explores the language and culture of the North Carolina coast.
The relative isolation of the North Carolina Outer Banks and inland waterways helped to preserve features of British and Scots-Irish English in the local speech. At the same time the language developed independently from mainland English to take on a distinctive sound of its own. Today the character of regional speech is maintained with pride as an expression of heritage and identity.
Rooted in twenty years of fieldwork, research and community ties, THE CAROLINA BROGUE is a candid portrait of contemporary life on the Carolina Coast, and a look at one of the most unique dialects in the world.
Produced by NEAL HUTCHESON

South Mississippi here. Half of their accent sounds like a Deep Southern accent that my great grandmother sounded like.. Half of my family in the country sound similar to my great grandmother. It’s very interesting to hear how it evolved
Wonderful memories
4:58 I was born in Sea Level and we still have a family home in Atlantic. We moved when I was 3 60 miles away. My Mom had this dialect and my family on her side. I love this video, makes my heart happy! Great video!! This is where I’m from so I’m not a dingbatter, lol.
I understand alot of this dialect. I grew up in eastern North Carolina and have spent alot of time with older people. I also have lived around older people people of western North Carolina and Virginia. There are lots of similarities.
I grew up visiting family in Hyde County. I've got very fond memories of those days. Hearing the brogue and the way of talk, I miss it. Time to make a visit.
Love Hyde County, its the hidden gem of North Carolina, no crowds, no terrible traffic, open rural lands, its beautiful with wonderful people
Love that individuality. Got a little bit of that myself growin up in New York.
I lived in Elizabeth city, and Atlantic Beach/Morehead 3x as a child, military brat , I lived in over 26 states before 18, this was always my favorite place, as a child when ppl asked me where I was from, Atlantic beach is what I told them, I lived in NC longer than any place, and pick up on the accents as a child,…as an adult the lastv20 years I’ve lived in the Pacific Northwest….ive lost most of the accent, but some still slinks out…but no one not even my parents/family talked like me (oregon/Montana) ….and I alway grew up thinking smth was wrong with me, bc ppl were always correcting me…but now seeing this, I finally get it…like I would always add ‘th’to the end of verbs….etc….say toboggan as a winter hat….
my dad grew up on harkers island. still can’t believe pizer isn’t a universal word!
My dad grew up there too, his father was a Pentecostal preacher on the island.
The word is probably a variant of the more common word "piazza" which others might call a "veranda".
Makes me want to move back home. Great documentary
Very strong England West Country influence.
Love your channel, I've seen a few of them, your videos, and it's really interesting.
Thank you, excellent and informational.
My Papaw had a Hoi Toider accent mixed with coastal carolina. I still remember him saying dont run aboot the hoose
AWESOME CHANNEL...thankyou
I know how they feel. Kentucky people, especially eastern Kentuckians, get made fun of all the time because of our drawl. Ours is as unique as the people of NC Islands. I have to say I've been to the OBX and without a doubt some of the nicest people I've ever encountered outside of Kentucky. Matter of fact they are genuinely nicer than most people of my home state.
I was born in Winchester, lived in West Liberty, grassy creek up a holler. I live on the outer banks now. Came when my son was 6 and he is now 42. I still have my Kentucky accent!😅
In Maine outsiders are “from away”. 😊
We have a Down East Maine 😊
Down East keep it and be proud of it.
Drime seems essentially the same as the term "Cap" i think it's used all places but it was very common in New Hampshire, where I grew up. haha watching this reminded me of the slang i use in daily speech, my girlfriend isn't from america originally and she gets a little frustrated when i use a slang term she doesn't know yet/ understand haha.
Maybe drime is another way to not say "damn!"
Down East is east of wherever you are at the moment, even if you're in Marshallburg. Used to be friends with Sonny & Jenny.
The story my aunt Colleen there to Styron Creek, Sea Level tells is there's a bunch of old men sitting around just a talking and talking about how many kids they had, 8, 10, 12, till they came to a man that only had 2. They asked him why he only had 2 kids with all the money he had and he told him he Drime'd. They'd never heard it before and he told it essentially meant he pulled out everytime. Then the story was told again and again and the people had too much decency to talk like that so they told the kids asking what it meant that was to call B.S. on something like a card game. I don't know how true it is but that's the story they tell so to me that's the way it is.
Can you give me a sample of conversations spoken in Ocracoke North Carolina language

As a Norwegian, I have NO issues understanding what these people say, it's not even that weird. I have NO understanding how ANYONE could mistake this dialect for Irish, Scottish, Australian or any other sort of British English. In my opinion you'd have to be pretty inept to mistake this blatantly obvious American dialect for anything else.
That’s so interesting to hear. As an American, I have a very hard time understanding them, but at the same time I can’t tell the difference between British dialects. They mostly sound the same.
@@ndschau Do you also not hear the difference between dialects in the US? Give cockney a listen and then listen to Queens English and tell me there isn't a difference, come on. 🤣
All the English sounds the same to you
