I grew up in Mississippi and live in Alabama. I find that people in Mississippi talk faster and merge all the words in a sentence together into a few long compound words. In Alabama, most people talk slower and space out their words more. Example (AL: "Yall about ready to eat?" MS: "Yallboutred'y t'eat?")
Thanks for the information ☺️...
I love 💙 the analogy, you broke down.
👆 this right here. Im from Louisiana and grew up in the Mississippi Delta. Alabama annoys me
I read the end with an accent🤣😂
Spot on
I'm a Mississippian and there is a difference is accent, tone and the way black vs white folks speak. Born and raised
Yes there is a huge difference. When people think of a Mississippi accent I am sure they think about a Mississippi black accent. I love the them talk too.
@@TrueSouthernAccent I’m a Black man from Liberty, MS and we kind of just combine many words quickly.
Example:
How is your momma and them?
Translation:
How’s yo momma’nem
😂
I'm from Birmingham, AL and as soon as you started speaking, I thought "Yep! That's Alabama."
LOL. You know when you hear an Alabama accent. Thanks for watching our video.
I’m Cajun and y’all know our accents ain’t like y’all’s comme ça but I do say Mama and Daddy (RIP) like the lady from misipi but with a much flatter sounding like a race to the vowels. I have one living Mawmaw she’s 100 years old now. My Pah-pahp Louie, Pahp Camille, and Mahmahm Cecile have all passed on. All around the outskirts of Acadiana, they all sound like they from misipi or Texass, Or Arkansass, the there’s New Orleans urbanites or “Southern gentleman” 😂 ❤ to my fellow Southerners. We’s all gots to stick together sha😊
Love the accents! Kimberly's accent sounds so melodic like a lullaby. Very simple and innocent. You can tell how well-mannered she is and folks in general from that part.
I'm English and love the American southern accents, as well as learning the history (real history) of the south.
God bless! We'd love to have some people like you visit!
@@maggiem6209 I'll definitely visit the American South one day.
@@GoldenToothBrush definitely do! The culture and values is so different than the rest of the country. Just get out the big cities. Lot of northerners and people moving down to big cities. Gotta go to the small medium size towns to get a real feel. Visit the Appalachian mountain towns as well!
@@brownjatt21 Thank you. Sounds like good advice.
Bo'ol of wo'ah
I'm a New Yorker but I love Southern accents. It's cute af lol.
You will love my video South Alabama accent vs North Alabama accent. Thanks for commenting and watching my video.
I share your sentiments ...
Im a "Brooklyn Boi" , Carolina Living for over two decade Now ...
I have a lil Kountry , with my NewYawk Accent.
In NYC: They tell me , I sound southern
DownSouth: They ask , am I from UpNorth.
I represent Both Regions Proudly.

@@stephenkinq5425 lol
I'm a brooklyn person too but I wouldn't say I have that stereotypical new york accent but I do pronounce some words differently. Like Ont instead of Ant or Cohawt instead of caught. But I love southern accents. Especially a Texan accent.
@@dangercat9188
Those subtle thyngs will never leave from our vocabulary , when pronouncing certian words
(The NewYawk in Us.)
@@stephenkinq5425 Haha yup. Im in CNY. I still say cooooffee and caaar. Its like the only two city words I learned growing up. Not sure where I picked them up from. But originally I was born in Europe.
Best part is my boy hiding his face trying not to laugh.
He talked to quite. I had to turn him up a lot. Tell him thanks for doing the video with us.
I'm a posh Englishman, but one must admit I've always had a soft spot for the Southern American lady.... wonderful voices
They keep us dumb and stupid, in America. It’s awful cute. Lol
Nope!! Just your momma!
Is it ironic that I find a woman's voice with the most obnoxious cockney accent to be utterly mesmerising?
Funny as an American with a fairly standard neutral accent.. my least favorite American accent is southern. And my favorite accents come from your great country
Well, come on down here and see us. We need a few good men.
I’m from Mississippi, but I’m currently living in Tokyo, Japan. This video made me feel so homesick haha, I miss the Southern accent :’)
Me too!
I'm from sommeville tn/mississippi and I love watching your videos. Makes me feel at home while currently living far away from family. Thank you !
Have you seen my new video. Alabama Accent vs Mississippi Accent? I also have Alabama vs East Tennessee and North Alabama vs south Alabama accent.
I’m from south Mississippi.
I don’t know anyone who eats sugar in their grits. They’re a savory dish down in these parts. Butter, salt, and pepper. Even better if you throw some over easy eggs and bacon in them.
That is all we know in north Alabama. We put a lot of sugar in our grits. LOL
I'm from pass Christian Mississippi and we eat grits savory
Stop. You gone have me at the stove lol.
Whew yes maam sugar in grits and rice. Yes lord and some good cooked bacon eggs
I have never heard of sugar in rice.
I just showed my Brazilian student one of your videos (to let him hear a southern accent. t is just how I described it: sing songy, a drawl, slow, this was great, perfect!
Thank you for showing them our Southern Accent. I have 200 other videos.
im from a long long away country named bangladesh and u truly feel so much connected with southern accents! and I am trying to learn it
I'm from Costa Rica and I love the blues. I'm trying to learn these accents in order to improve my interpretations. Beautiful accent. It's my favourite. It has character
I recently read two books by Mississippi Delta ladies Gayden Metcalfe and Charlotte Hayes and I loved every page, I'm not surprised how wonderfully polite this young girl and guy are if they were raised by Southern mothers! I'm not from the South but adore the different accents, the hospitality and community spirit, the respect for elders and the great sense of humour. I hope y'all manage to keep these traditions alive! :)
I’m Russian, moved from Maine to North Carolina. Southern people are incredible.
Love this! I was born in the Midwest (Indiana) My Mom was also born in the Midwest, however her older siblings and parents were born on the Mississippi/Louisiana border city Natchez. My Dad was born in Tupelo Mississippi and I somehow picked up a southern twang I suppose from him. Enjoyed watching this,! ❤️
3:15 When we'd spend the night at Mawmaw's, after breakfast she'd let us know what we'd have for dinner (lunch time). When we got older we asked her why some folks call it lunch and some call it dinner. She explained that on a farm (where she grew up) dinner was the biggest meal of the day. So up at the cracka dawn milkin' and collecting eggs came before break fast. By the time noon rolled around you were real hungry and still had a lotta work to do before supper (leftover dinner, usually). We're all form L.A. LOWER ALABAMA!
Thanks for explaining that. Great to know why we still say it that way.
Dad moved to Huntsville when I was young. Your accent reminds me of my part-time home. Thanks for this channel 💗
I live in Huntsville, Alabama.
Thanks for commenting and watching my video.
Aaah, I loved watching this video! Looking forward to checking out from your channel. I love accents, and I love English, and I have found the southern accents so pleasing to the ear and appealing to me since a kid.. greetings from Greece 🇬🇷
Thanks for commenting and watching my video.
I hope you do check out more of my accent Challenges. You will love North Alabama accent vs South Alabama accent and a lot of other states accents.
@@TrueSouthernAccent I did watch the North vs South Alabama one! It’s incredible how there can be such difference in the accent of the same state! Although to be honest, I think someone who cannot tell Alabama accent apart from other Southern ones would have difficulty spotting the various distinctions-but they are there all right! Thank you so much!
Delta Mississippi & Coast Mississippi are worlds apart.
Exactly! I’m from Gautier, Mississippi on the coast
I'm from Moss, mississippi.a small area north of Laurel so.i don't know if you'd consider that the coast but it's closer to the coast that the Delta. It's considered the Pine Belt.
@@cutclown2033I don't know the reason but Gautier and Pascagoula accents are more country than people's accents in Gulfport through Pass Christian. There is alway the occasional person you know with a country accent but nothing like in the video.
As an immigrant from Bangladesh... about the whole Coke thing. Back in the late 80s and 90s, we used to call every soda coke back at home. Like can I have "burger and coke...?" Then when I first went to New York, I heard of the term soda. I wonder if it is mostly has to do with powerful branding than anything... Guess, now it has changed due to so many choices.
Branding for sure. It's like how people say "Google it" as opposed to "Use a search engine."
@@Febreezycoke was also among the very first sodas produced.
I'm from Africa and I have practiced this accents a lot. I have to say that it's really hard to get fluent
I'm German, but I grew up in Mississippi. In Germany, I understand Liberians perfectly.
Mississippi has a lot of variation in its accent. Some counties are particular but a lot of people have a blended accent, a little black mixed in. I'm from rural Leake Co and most my age (32) and younger there have the blend to some extent. My wife grew up around Newton so when we met she had a very thick country accent with a lot of extra flavor. The southern quarter of Hinds Co. is its own thing entirely due to the blend with the Jackson accent. Canton accents sound a lot like Leake Co., probably due to the chicken plant outside Carthage.
I'm from Stringer, Mississippi which is just north of Laurel. And the girl of here reminds me of the accent we have around here
Black is not an accent good brother
@@timhughes3684 You are right, I just couldn't think of a better way to word it.
What is "black mixed in"?
@@avagates2039 I am not sure what you are asking. I realize that I failed to phrase that correctly but I do not like to edit my mistakes once I have put them out there. If you are asking because people have more consistent speech patterns where you are from then I am not sure how to explain this adequately. To be completely clear, it is called Ebonics, i guess, and it is an entire dialect and not just an accent. It is also a generalization and exists more on a spectrum and crosses "racial" boundaries. That boundary crossing is generally due to some places having actually ended segregation..... eventually...... instead of pretending like it was never really a thing there and going on as if it's the 1800s.
This was fun to watch! I grew up between Vicksburg and Jackson, and have tempered my twang during the years I’ve been in Georgia, but these ladies take me home! When I was a girl, asking “What kinda Coke you want, Sprite or Orange Crush?” was routine. The telltale Southern-speak was to say “I’m fixin’ to go to school, church, Grammaw’s, etc.” Dropping the word “fixin” probably elevated my speech more than anything else! 😂
Yeah, the ole I'm fixing to do this or fixing to do that. Lol. I'm from the Pine Belt. Moss, Mississippi
I’m from Vicksburg!! I now live in Arkansas and it’s a different accent.
I’m from Mississippi. The Mississippi girl’s accent just sounds soo normal to me to the point that it’s refreshing because it’s the accent I heard growing up, in school, and today. But I can see how people see it as not normal, like my brain is doing code-switching between what is considered normal from Mississippi or from just anyone outside Mississippi.
It is very comfortable. That is about the only word I can think of to describe it.
God, the south was so great. I mean, it still is, but imagine what it was. It was so proud and strong once.
A shame what fate befell them. They did not deserve it.
I’m also a southerner, Southern Californian that is..😘🤣🤣🤪🤪 You have great content. 👉🏻🇺🇸👈🏻👏👏👏👏👏
I moved from Bay Area of California to Texas for college and heard so many accents and I absolutely loved the accents of the south. My college roommate was from Houston area and I ended up unintentionally picking up her accent the more I spent around her 😅😅😅😅
That is great never heard of any picking up on a Southern Accent. I though you had to born into it. LOL. It is a privilege to have a southern accent.
@@TrueSouthernAccent the mechanic who working on my car from Virginia and after hanging out with him for hours while working on the car. I started saying days of the week with Eee ending instead of Day. Sundee mondee instead of sunDay etc lol. I'm from California btw
Thanks is funny. 😂 that is how we say it. We don’t realize it until someone tells us.
I'm from Guntersville Alabama and my grandparents were always called Mama Hester and Pa Hester. After talking to them you feel like you've been hugged just by their voices.
They sound like great grandparents. I am from Boaz but live in Huntsville Alabama
From the golden triangle area, currently in Washington and everytime my grandparents come to visit I immediately switch to my native accent, and its always refreshing hearing my native accent after so long hearing these northern accents
I love these accents. Im from california, but this is americas history.
Thank You. It is a privilege to have a Southern Accent. Thanks for commenting and watching my video.
Solidarity from a Bostonian. A strong accent shows roots and hometown spirit. Anyone who thinks negatively about it can find someone else to talk to. They won't be missed!
@@TrueSouthernAccent Hi, I'm Californian and is it rude for me to talk in a southern accent?
@@JV-cc9ul loved my time in Boston. Visited 3 times. Drank in the pub croke Pairc in Southy. Also had a few in a small bar called sullys in Charlestown. Loved my time there.
Hello from Ireland 🇮🇪
@Elmer Pacheco 😄😄😄 you make no sense Troll
Miami resident here. Dating a beautiful lady from Alabama. In love with the Alabama accent.
I’m from southern MS and I say Deddy for my dad. I say Moma for my mom and I have a Granny and Grandpaw. I have found that what people call their family relatives is based on what bloodline you’re from. Lots of people here in MS say different things depending on who their family is and the traditions that are passed down. It’s all a Coke here too. Oh and it’s a cork not a bobber.
Yes that is true. Thanks for commenting and watching my video.
Im from South MS and I have always called sodas sodas and never heard otherwise. How is that weird? I also call them by their names Dr. Pepper, Pepsi, Root Beer. Calling everything a coke is confusing.
Our dear True Southern Accent lady reminds me of my Georgia relatives so much! The north Georgia accent and the north Alabama accent are very similar.
I'm Saudi Arabian, grew up watching American movies, I've always loved the southern accent. ❤
I'm Australian and I love hearing and imitating southern accents. Best accents in america.
I'm from North Borneo and i love American Southern accents,would love to learn that...,
Nice to meet you. Thanks for watching my video. People comments all the time that they watch my video to learn the Southern Accent. I can not teach it. So watch other YT video of teachers teaching how we speak it. It is just natural to us in the southern USA.
From Batesville Mississippi so we have a Mississippi and Tennessee accent mixed
Well that is a good thing to have. Thanks for commenting and watching my video.
In England we just say fizzy drink lol. If you ask for coke you’ll get Coca Cola!
Never heard of a fizzy drink. That is cute. Thanks for commenting and watching my video.
I'm from Oklahoma. I call carbonated beverages soda, though I've heard people call it pop.
Meal times are breakfast, lunch and dinner/supper time.
This just randomly came up in my suggestion and I also live in “the big city” of Huntsville, Alabama 😂
I’m originally from Florence, though.
I’m from Louisiana /Mississippi and I find that the Alabama traditions of language are more similar to mine . We call all carbonated beverages “coke” we call lunch “dinner “
I'm from North Central Iowa. We call all sodas "pop". We are farming rural people but most of us have absolutely no accent. Lots of Camo, hunting, 4 wheeling and guns. BUT, we speak pretty close to standard American accent (also commonly called NO ACCENT) basically exactly how you hear on TV and movies. You would find it very odd.
Lots of Minnesotans to the north and Missourians to the south both have accents, but we don't. Would love to visit the South sometime!
We would love to have you back. Thanks for commenting and watching my video.
@DANIL TROSMAN I know that's why I said commonly called. Like colloquially. It is the type of standard American speech you would take if you wanted to be a broadcaster or tv host and wanted to "get rid of your accent". That a bunch of rural simple Iowans just happened to stumble across and pass on for generations. It's pretty cool and unique.
I think the we Californians have no accent
@@edwinholcombe2741 generally no most Californians don't have an accent. But in socal u will run into a lot of beach bum/surfer/stoner accents for quite a large number of people since the population is so big its just a numbers thing. And there's a very large Hispanic population with an accent as well. But overall I agree with your statement.
Everyone has an accent!
I'm from Michigan and I liked to tell you we do biscuits and gravy here all the time
I'm from Mobile, Alabama and most call a carbonated soda a (Drank) and that can extend to any type of beverage too.
i'm mobile too and you're right lol
Most black folk In the south Mississippi Alabama say drank..
Cold drink! 😂 You can’t forget the cold.
My man from Mobile and he said this exact thing
Love to hear your accents. Sounds relaxed. Excuse my ignorance but is Southern hospitality a well known saying?
Greetings from 🇳🇱
Yes it is very well known saying. It is just what we do. If I meet you I am going to hug your neck and treat you like I know you all my life. We are the sweetest and nicest people you will ever meet.
I moved to the Netherlands few years back and I noticed that when people hear me talk they always assume I am from Texas. LOL
Sourthen hospitality is a double edge sword in my opinion. Lol I’m Kentuckian. And the shade people throw while using sweet words. XD if you weren’t from the south, some wouldn’t realize they’re being insulted.
@@TheSlipperyNUwUdle "Bless your heart."
Love these accents. Think I'd start speaking like that when I'm there
I’m from AL albertville and I am going to Huntsville so I watched your Dave and buster video
I am from Boaz and my Husband is from Albertville. We live outside of Huntsville now. Where did you go to High school and what year did you graduate?
@@TrueSouthernAccent oh um I haven’t been through that yet
Hey i love this.. i from south Mississippi (pine belt)
Laurel Mississippi or the free state of JONES.. nice content..
Oh the dinner and supper thing; you can thank Cajuns for that 😊 in French, it’s Petit-déjeuner (puh-tee day-junay) for breakfast, dinner (pronounced din-nay), and supper (soup-pay)
I really wanna visit Mississippi, I love that Southern drawl hehe. I’m originally from Singapore.
Tupelo Mississippiis a great place to go.
I think everyone in Mississippi has that southern drawl. Thanks for commenting and watching my video.
I’m from Alabama and I call it lunch. Dinner is what you eat at night. Now granted, my dad grew up in Indiana, so maybe that’s the difference. After spending many years living in Indiana, my grandmother would say “pop” for sodas. “Yah’ll go out to the laundry room and grab you a pop.” 😂
Southern accent sounds like music to me. I’ll make sure to learn it over all english accents I heard thanks!
I'm from PA & I always loved southern women 😍
That Southern accent, I can't tell you how much I find it beautiful ❤
My friend took a trip out west one time, i think to Utah, and ordered a sweet tea, and they gave her iced tea with some sugar packets on the side. She just about got up and left.
🤣
The Alabama Accent is the best accent in America.
Georgia is the best accent
I'm from Mississippi and most people my age don't seem to have that strong of an accent as your video, unless they are playing it up. I do hear it more in my parents' generation and strangely, in younger people. Maybe it was something about our generation? I'm 50 and from close to the Northern MS/AL line, Lowndes County. To me, this seems more like the sitting-on-the-screened-in-porch-after-a-few-beers kind of accent. hahaha I live in TN now and I've noticed that my accent does get stronger for a couple weeks after I go home for a visit, though!
Mine is real as can be but mine is very unusual. I am 50 too. My husband says he has never heard of anyone with my southern accent. She is real Southern accent too. She is in her 20’s. I could hear her talking for a while before I ask her to do a video with me. There are a lot of people is Tupelo MS that have a southern accent.
Yeah, this is a normal southern accent. I’ve heard it quite often.
@@TrueSouthernAccent the younger lady has a really soft spoken southern belle accent.
From Gautier, Mississippi on the coast (not too far from Mobile, Alabama) Just wanted to give a shoutout to both states
My dad wore that mustache before Dale Earnhart made it popular, and one time, when he was out of town for a job, a girl at a diner thought he was Dale Earnhart.
I live in Alabama, and only older relatives of mine call all soft drinks Coke, and I think a lot of them have stopped because it only confused me and my siblings.
On the dinner vs. lunch, I know family who mean lunch when they say dinner, but I say lunch because that is what they call it at work.
Ok, I will mash the subscribe button. My Mama is a Mississippi Mama.
Glad you enjoyed this video. Thank you for subscribing to my channel.
I’m from mobile and We always just called the drink what we wanted I’ve heard the whole coke thing but never what kind of coke
She said the Walmart parking lot, she really means the Sonic in the parking lot!
You should do more comparing differences between different southern accents. The accent somehow makes the voice register lower I notice.
I have done a video South Alabama accent vs North Alabama accent. I need to do a Georgia accent vs Alabama accent.
Yeah.
There are few accents sexier than antebellum Southern accents. I love it.
I grew up in the south I hear Alabama accents everywhere.
“U got a something to drank” what we’d say in Birmingham
I came here because a lady from Haiti and her friends (who are from the south; high class south) told me my daughter had a Mississippi accent. I’m not sure, I guess I’m used to hearing her voice that I don’t hear it.
My daddy used to call them 'cold drinks" but run together kind ol like 'coldranks'. Also, sugar does not belong in grits - at all.
If someone put sugar in my grits I’d lose my damn mind.. that’s wild to me (North Carolina)
I'm from California and I love the southern accent!
Lovely accents, no matter what.
I;m from Oxford, Mississippi born and raised in Arkansas, we have always said "coke" for anything carbonated, then what kind ,,coca cola, sprite, etc.
I'm from southwest Virginia. We always called it pop. My cousin was from Maryland, they called it soda. But almost every article I see about it has it reversed.
Watching your channel makes my speech impediments on Google more appreciative because I CONSTANTLY have to repeat myself on Google………..their needs to be a Southern dialect edition of our language to Google.
Yes they do. I can said 1 big word and it will spell 3 different words. LOL That happen the other day and I can not remember what I was spelling. Southern talking people can not sound the words out and spell it the way we say them.
That's surprising! Dinner is at 12pm in Alabama? 😳 That's new.v
I love you guys
I am from Iraq
🇮🇶❤️🇺🇸
I'd love to learn this accent
Aww Boyfriend like “Shii, I didn’t ask for this, can we wrap this up? I just came to town to eat a poboy and now my girl being interviewed on camera! WT…..😊
South side is the best for real people, so honest, natural, i wish to move there ...
People in south Alabama and South Georgia say soda , I never heard anyone say “COKE” as an reference to one whole drink 😭😭I’m in a small town in South Georgia on the border line of eufaula al and shorterville and abbeville al depending on what part of the country you stay in where we have to go work and shopping and etc and I never heard coke literally 🤣🤣that is so country and we’re country 😭
LOL. I have always just called them Coke. Thanks for watching my video.
Calling the middle meal dinner in Alabama is interesting - in the UK, parts of North England do that. In the South of England it's usually lunch. But it's a little different as it's breakfast, dinner, tea (or breakfast, lunch, dinner, in the South if England), not breakfast, dinner, supper. As a kid, for me, supper was a small meal or snack after tea, but it may be different in different parts of the UK.
Yay, I am from Tupelo, Mississippi.
My real name is Elvis.. and I enjoy your videos 😊
Nice to meet you Elvis. I am glad you enjoyed my video. Thanks for commenting and watching my video.
Im from Arkansas we call them cokes also. Dinner we say supper, also North Arkansas ozark area has a little diffrent accent on some words than people in South Arkansas. South Arkansas sounds like a mix of west Mississippi and North Louisiana
absolutely dying at the bf in the background cringing his way thru this, he's bright red and straight grimacing the entire time lmao
pull that hat any lower and you gonna suffocate. poor trevor
I have a friend whos born and raised in MS but just doesnt have the accent
I can not believe that. I thought everyone in MS has an accent.
Perkinston, Ms here!
I grew up in TX and coke was our word for all carbonated drinks. Now, after being in Houston for so many years - i.e., around very few Texans - I now say sodas.
Love y’all’s accents, btw!
Dinner and supper exist in Mississipi too
Funny her name is Kimberly. Wish she had said Kim. My brother-in-law is from Mississippi and I love how he says my name as 'Keem.'
Green hat homie hurtin back there
Beautiful accent! Bayou accent is awesome too.
Thank you! 😃
It's pop in Buffalo westward. Soda in NYC ...
Grits are eaten with butter and salt, and one puts a fried egg on top and then mixes them together. (From Florida.)
Love you from India
So she calls lunch dinner? Thats cute
I just depends on who you're and where you're at in either state. I'm Southern to the core born n raised in Mississippi the dirty south and i call my dad just that,dad. My neighbor and alot others call his dad deddy. Lol.. I'm country though, that rite! My brothers wife and so much of my family you can clearly hear the good ole southern in them all day. Lol.
