Speak with a New York Accent

This lesson is designed to help you master several key elements of the New York accent, including a powerhouse trio of consonants and vowels.
The Long U grows nasal
assume you do, future viewings, including, prove, suit, true
Drop R vowels
certainly no harm, perform a short speech, ordinary, target, unfortunately
The AW sound
also, cautious, long, off, taught
awesome, call, song, talk
Some Short A’s grow nasal
asked, bad, master, blast, cast, stab
In the following speech, a guide attempts to convince the tourist to sign a waiver of liability, and to also feel relatively confident that the tour will be a safe one.
How you doin’? Your boyfriend over there wants to take you to a very dangerous place. He asked me to help out. Our destination is called ‘Pandora’s Box’. It’s just down the road and it looks like an ordinary shopping mall. The problem is, once we step inside, anything is bound to occur. My job is to make sure nothing bad happens.
In order to protect you, I will need you to sign these forms. I never went to law school, so I don’t understand the fancy talk, but our lawyers insist that everyone who comes along agrees to release this company from any accusations of wrongdoing.
The handbook "Speak with a New York Accent" takes the exotic art of performing with dialects and delivers easy-to-follow lessons (including a longer list of those exceptional short A sounds). Break all barriers to learning the New York accent with this book, and at your next audition the casting directors will be scraping their jaws off the floor.

You're a legend, Sir! During your speeches I feel like I'm listening to Lou Reed "tawking", the pinnacle of the NY accent

hello Vanya! I just wanted to say thank you for your work and dedication: I've been watching/rewatching your videos for years now, I've watched the Sopranos 3 times, so this linguistic manner kinda stuck with me! I'm not a native speaker, so I can hardly say how natural/adequate I sound, but it still feels good

[@samiere]

The great Ivan is back! Looking forward to more ny accent videos
