What can we say? We made up our own language! Between the "Hoagies" and the "Coffees", us South Jersey kids just can't catch a break when it comes to getting called out in a crowd because of our "accents".
I'm sure there's more to the list but here's just a few...

Carmel is literally not the dictionary spelling
Legend says hes still stiring his coffee
Oh he is
They spelt caramel wrong lmao the girl with the blue hair was right 😂
skylah banks
camel??
actually carmel and caramel are two different things
No. Carmel is hard. Caramel is soft.
In australia its caramel :333
Carmel
0:49 it's actually spelled "caramel," not "carmel," so it's not weird that she says it correctly.
Tatiana Racheva no its not its spelled CARMEL
I think they're talking about Carmel mountain
Destiney Sarver you are actually stupid it's caramel look it up
Destiney Sarver you’re stupid lmao
Fuzzball Owl Nice come back *LMFAO*
Iconic quotes from this video:
1. "Caramel." "Ew really?" "Yeah."
2. "Martin? Or is it Martian?"
3. "I feel judged."
4. "What do you talk on? The phewn!"
5. "Do you say hewgie, like that?"
6. "Did I say wooter or wooter?"
We should make T-shirts!
Cat Country 107.3 YES 💀
? There is another 'a'. It's spelt 'caramel'
Noah Duncan ii
Noah Duncan ikr it's not Carmel that's the cake place
That's what i was thinking
Noah Duncan it's a city too
It's very ignorant by taking away that second 'A', smh.
I’m New York City wtf are “jimmies “ 😂
Ella Catore sprinkles
I am in south jersey and I call them sprinkles. I never heard of them called jimmies before either :)
Lyrics_are_life lol I, from New Jersey WHAT ARE JIMMIES
THEY ARE OBVIOUSLY SPRINKLES
They're what u put on ice cream
Wow some pronounciations sound British!
Artistic Mystery ?? As someone from Britain, no accent on this bloody island sounds anything like any of the words
I think that makes a lot of sense since New York is a state that was the central immigration point for people coming from England, so their accents sound very “British”. Same with Jamaican accents; if you really listen they sound a bit British!
Innittt i felt like they were fellow brits when i heard some words
not really lmao
Artistic Mystery I don't think so. I'm personally British but I have a dodged accent so that may be why.
Legend has it the guy in the blue shirt is still stirring his drink to this day
Those legends would be correct
CarAmel not carmel. Blue hair girl is right.
cupcakekawaii it can be pronounced anyway , carmal sounds easier
Carmel isn't how it's spelled lmfaooo
The fact that in the uk we say “hundreds and thousands” for “sprinkles” confuses and amazes me 😂
Kaitlan Watkins we do ? I'm from England and I say sprinkles
dude that's why say all that when you can just say sprinkles..
as a south floridian i’ve never heard jimmies or hoagies in my life lmfao
oovoo javer go to central florida and visit a wawa lol
jimmies are sprinkles (i always call them sprinkles, jimmies is weird) and a hoagie is a sub/hero/grinder/italian sandwich
i’ve heard hoagie but not jimmies
Lucy Mayser
Some New Englanders say jimmies, but I think that's only for the chocolate sprinkles?
I’ve never heard of sprinkles
Lol wheres ‘beautiful’ ? I was waiting for it 😂
This just messed up my English pronunciation now
Hawt dawg is my favorite.
How long was he stirring that cup of coffee for?
Not long enough
Still had a sugary sediment in the bottom
I feel honored that 1.5 million people want to see how we speak
Is it just me or do they sound normal saying it?
Coming from an Englishman
Some people say the accent is a mix of some dialect of a British accent and a southern accent lol
Wutur💧
Ahmad Almuaala my girlfriend says it like that 😂 and “begel”
Ahmad Almuaala water?
Ahmad Almuaala Better than that WUUTAH crap we hear from brits!
I've got to that side of the internet again
...they all sound fine to me...
Y'all should come down to South Carolina. You would really flip.
Elizabeth Church yes I live in South Carolina!
When I lived in South Jersey, the most common ones I heard were:
-Dollars -> Dallars
-Milk -> Melk
-Water -> Wooder
-Coffee -> Cuoffee
-Nails -> Nells
-Pillow -> Pellow
-Dog -> Duog
-Things that end with -ed get or past tense words get -ed added onto it (ex. She put -> she putted, He dared -> he dareded)
yeah yall not that special
Special is in the eye of the beholder ;)
Get your negativity outta here
toxic bean no, i agree with him. there is NOTHING special about a dumb sounding accent.
Fr no one asked for your opinion 💀
People say everyone is special but if that's true then there's nothing special about being special. So in conclusion- no one's special.
*H A W T D A W G*
what is she saying ew for, she’s saying it correctly. there are two A’s...
Clickbait. No one said "beautiful"...

Cat Country 107.3 legit everyone at Buzzfeed
I'm from England and your pronunciations of these words are so funny😂
“Hot dawg”
this video was a flop
I’m sorry you took the time to watch a flop.
Cat Country 107.3 me too girl lmao
as a north jerseyan i have literally never heard someone say jimmies that must REALLY be a south jerseyan thing
Where my jersey people at??
Jimmies and wooder. I am educated but this is how we spoke growing up. I'm not ashamed of my South Jersey accent at all. I live in Colorado now and my friends and co-workers love it. All across the country people pronounce words and phrases differently. I love it when someone knows exactly where I'm from. Jimmies, wooder, hogies, cricks, and arenges are part of who I am. Proud to be from Jersey.
I'm a fan of the channel Game Grumps, and one of the hosts, Danny, ia from Jersey. He tried to not get an accent while growing up, but every now and then that Jersey just slips out and it is the best possible thing. It's also funny, because from listening to him I've adopted some Jersey phrases. So you've got this girl in Washington saying "Jimmies, Jim-Jams" and "Steeze."
When I tell people i’m from New Jersey (northern jersey) they’re like “why don’t you have a New Jersey accent?” but what is that supposed to even mean
Oh but you do 😉
As someone with a STRONG British accent this is so strange
Aerryn Martin my mother has a brittish accent, I'm from california, and I live in New Jersey so it's strange for me too lmao
British accents sound funny
Dreamy Owl 😂😂😂 no
The girl with the blue in her hair has the perfect jersey girl posture
“Cwoffe” “Hot dwog” “phoene” hoeme” “pallow” “wuater”
Loved your video! I'm Brazilian, never been abroad and I think it would be fun to pick an accent. 😀
"Did I say wuader or wuader?" 😂
"hawt dawg" love it 😂
If buzzfeed did this it would have 10M views
True
Im from Jersey and i found it hilarious that none of these sound wrong to me. 😂😂
Most of these sound pretty normal to me
Idk if it’s because I’m from New York or what
I LOVE YOUR GUYS ACCENTS!!!❤❤❤
I am from South Jersey as well. THIS IS TOO RELATABLE!
I from Yonkers, NY but lived in Asbury Park, NJ and there isn’t a real difference in the accents. They’re both New Yorkish. But when I went to Lakewood and other parts of Ocean County and further south, the people sounded like they were from Alabama lol
Finally someone mentions my hometown, Lakewood.
From ocean here, people do NOT sound southern in the least. Maybe it's just my area though. Never spoken to anyone from Lakewood.
*y o n k e r s*
I live in asbury and barnegat everyone speaks different because we are from different states and countrys
Have you ever heard the term nose blind? It's when you get used to a smell to such a degree that you don't smell it anymore
Talk about the penmanship. It looks like whoever wrote those flash cards is insane
Uhmmmm
Its spelled caramel just saying.
Hello, I'd like to thank Gerard Way for making me Google "how to get a nj accent" in the middle of the night.
løvely my friends and I all say “Jyacket” thanks to Gerard 😂
løvely ahah
If you were from nj then you wouldn’t want it 😂
løvely 'ben nye haar movie makeup'
Americans all sound pretty much the same you should come to Ireland and then you'll see a wide variety of accents. Yall didn't sound that unusual
We think the same about Ireland 😂😂
Cat Country 107.3 Same for every country
Cat Country 107.3 very true. 😂
Americans do not sound the same. The accents are different depending on where you are located in the country. Midwest diff from ...the South diff from...theNorth West the North East.
Turrzan Irish sound the same but us Brit’s have loads of accents
I’m not even from South Jersey and I pronounce the words the exact same way 😂
Same its a struggle 😂
why?
I’m from south jersey and I saw a lot of these words differently
Omg I was born and i am still being raised in South Jersey and I get judged so much when I talk to people in another state
Water was the one that stuck with me the most....Toms River, what's up
Alexis Smith (blue hair girl in video) woohoo!! TR!
The title of the video is harder than any if these questions to say
😂😂😂 you’re not wrong
Im so glad you pronounced crayon like "crown" because I say it like that down here in Georgia and I'm made fun a lot for it. I thought I was crazy.
I’m in east PA right near the jersey boarder and it’s so weird because we all say that too I thought it was just normal 😂😂
Jimmies? I’ve never heard that before.
I’ve noticed I say Baygo instead of bagel. Also, they’re sprinkles.
I’m from Canada and say a lot of these words like you guys 😂😂
1:20 oh my lord i never stopped laughing and how she said hUt DoAwG. 😂 😂 😂
I’m from south philly area and all of this sounded normal. Fly Eagles Fly 🦅
Central jersey where you at?
(Blue hair girl in the video) Woot Woot!! 🙌🙌
Hello friend!!
hii
WOOOOO
My mind is blown by Gala. I live in Georgia and I've always said it with an "o" sound for the 1st "a".
Grew up in Delran and Willingboro, but I have to say that Riverside has some seriously strong South Jersey accents. The Breeze Motor Cars commercial in the 80's and 90's used to give me fits. That guy had a SERIOUSLY strong SJ accent.
OMG I have japanese heritage but I live in Ocean City NJ (I'm not going to say my address) and when people say "wooder" instead of water I get SO MAD. The worst of all is when people say "liberry" instead of library but I guess that's a universal thing.
Born and raised in south jersey
I looove the way they say coffee. 😄
I didnt know my local radio station would get alot of views lmao
Quality content 😉
I can live with all of them EXCEPT crayon. DUDE. WHAT THE HELL. There's already a "crown" in the dictionary and why else would the 'y' be there? Crayon is definitely pronounced "cray-on" not "crown". No arguement.
I pronounce it “crown” and I’m from Kansas. My kindergarten teacher taught me how to say it, and I’m pretty sure our class is the only group that pronounces it like that in the Midwest.
Lol over here most people say "cran" the "a" like in apple ooor "cray-on" but mostly "cran"
my mom was born in jersey, and scares the crap out of me
South Jersey girl here. I live next to Delran and Riverside NJ! Weird I stumbled upon this video. Lol
It's crazy how different those words would be pronounced in North Jersey...I mean for the most part some words are the same but...."acuhme" and "begal" got me haha!!
The way they pronounce coffee reminds me of Lorna from oitnb.
I’m from south jersey and I say all these lmao
This was oddly entertaining lol.
Legend says that man is still stirring his coffee
The couch/background at the beginning seems a little familiar....
Where
Girl with black hair sounded fine and the guy8n the office place but everyone else sounded weird.
“A+, you did okay”
my parents 😂😂😂
Caramel has an "a" AFTER the "r". CarAmel. The "a" is not silent
I say pillow like “pellow” too
-nyc
They sound normal to me.
That may mean you have an accent
Cat Country 107.3 hmm that’s interesting. I’m from Texas. That’s very neat if I do
I live in like the middle of nj and for me it’s jimmies all the way and my dad even says begel instead of bagel and it’s hilarious.
I'm from outside stl like an hour away from the city and this is pretty much my accent except for home, coffee, and bagel. Also I don't usually use the word jimmies but my mom would use it for chocolate sprinkles only.
I am from Baltimore and I talk almost exactly like this
jrb0407
Yeah, that's what I was thinking. As you go south from NJ these odd pronunciations become even more noticeable (or more pronounced, no pun intended). It's stronger in Philadelphia but the apex is Baltimore. Unfortunately the old Baltimore accent is fading away now. Kathy Bates did a great old time Baltimore accent in American Horror Story: Freak Show. It was really exaggerated and nobody really speaks that way, especially nowadays, but I loved listening to her speak in that accent.
*none of this are different from how I say things lol I guess it’s the same for philly*
I was born and raised in South Jersey and I still to this day haven't heard people say jimmies over sprinkle. And I go to ice cream shops a lot
Yup that is so true!!
Why did they all act like they’ve never seen the name Martin before?
Hawt Dawg haha I'm dead
Lmao
2:05 "I'm going home." Not making fun of it just reminds me of Anthony Griffin lol
I’m from New Jersey but I don’t know what JIMMIES are HAHAHA
Jimmies and sprinkles? Wtf in England we call them hundreds and thousands and she pronounced caramel right..
I love the way yall say atuff
oh jeez I just realized how much my South Jersey accent stuck even after I've been living in PA for years
