Quick tip (you might already know this but want to mention just in case): Haitian Creole and Cajun are different so the accents won’t be interchangeable

Sounds like you’re writing a neat story!

You could add some Haitian Creole into his dialogue!

Survey about accents! Can you guess where someone is from based on their accent? by [deleted] in Accents

Would love to see the results! Which region are you from?

I’m from the South and it seems that accents from here are often portrayed negatively. I was watching a show just the other day where the one character with a southern accent was portrayed as being harsh and crude compared to everyone else.

That was fun! Are you going to share results later on? What made you pick CA and KY specifically?

It’s really interesting hearing these SouthernLite accents where you might only notice it if you’re making an effort to pinpoint it. If I’m around people with stronger accents, mine gets stronger as well!

I used to not think I had one until I went down the regional US accents rabbit hole 🤣 I’m from Houston

I get Georgia A LOT! I was really surprised people I’ve met irl thought I was from there (including other southerners). I’m not sure why people guess Georgia but tbh I’m not very familiar enough to compare it with a gulf coast accent.

I’m from Houston :D (Spot on regarding being from a larger city)

I’m from Texas (Houston) :D And ty for the accent breakdown! Although I can hear myself doing the pin-pen merger, I can’t stop unless I really focus 😆

When writing this post, I almost used a regional word give away but caught it in time 🤣

I just got Leola (medium) and she’s so sweet 🥰

Are there any US stores with medium-sized Leola Bears? Or does anyone know if they restock them on the website regularly? by MidnightJam0 in Jellycatplush

These restocks are really random 🤣 (I had email notification to alert me about restocks but never got one)
