[QUOTE="Lammie, post: 419431, member: 3306"] I have noticed in my extensive case studies of Okie speech patterns, that you all seem to have several differect dialects. I expect that in a state like Texas, as we are so large, but from what I understand, and correct me if I am wrong, 3M, some of the state was settled by yankees and some by rebels after the Civil War. Hence, the clipped accents I have heard up around the northern borders and the Forest Gump thing I hear around Southeastern Oklahoma. My husband is an Okie from Tishomingo, (I hope I spelled that right). His name is Steve and it comes out Stave. In fact, his memos at work are addressed to Stave. Likewise, my Bokchito relatives have a very slow, Southern way of speaking. In fact, I almost want to finish my step daughter's boyfriend's sentences for him. It's a real moonpie and RC kinda place! ;-) Do you have any further observations you would like to add, Dr. 3M? :shock: All in the name of science, naturally. ;-) [/QUOTE]
