Houstonians carry the most authentic southern accents than any other part of Texas. I think it’s because its wrapped in deep southern culture
True Houston and east Texas
We Texans also do a LOT of fixin':
I'm fixin' to go to the store
I'm fixin' to fix breakfast
I'm fixin to kick yer ass
I have never heard anyone say “fixin”. I’ve heard “finna” but never “fixin”, even when I was living in East Texas, never heard someone say fixin
@@idkanymore9869 same
@@idkanymore9869 I’m a 6 generation native Texan and those of us that are Natives are truly fixin to do everything.
@@Sabbathissaturday I’m related to the Indians that been living in San Antonio n the Spanish that came over here as well, so my family been here wayyyyyy longer than yours 😂
@@Sabbathissaturday I’m a true native
I'm from East Texas (Tyler), so we have the same accent. I lived in the Pacific Northwest for 5 years and moved to the DFW Area. I can't lose the accent no matter how hard I try. I tried once and it sneaks back out. 🤣 My husband grew up 100 miles away in Dallas and has no accent. I love hearing accents from all over the world.
As someone that was born and raised in the Carolinas that moved to Texas in 2022, the eastern side of the state reminds me so much of back home. The pine trees, the culture, and most importantly, the accent sounds exactly the same as how I sound.
I should be asleep but for some reason I felt the urge to watch Texan accent videos because I live in Deep South Texas and I feel like no one acknowledges the accent we have here 😂 I speak completely different than you do, and I find that amazing. Anyway I love this video!
Haha thank you!! Texas is such a big state, it’s crazy how many different accents there is in this one state!
Agree Im from Deep South also and their is a little difference
I just said the same thing… I think Hispanic texans and white Texans are a bit different
Hi
I'm also a native South Texan, not the LRGV where there is very little accent, but just north of there around Corpus and Alice. My accent is more of a drawl than Stacey's, but my pronunciation is about 85% the same as hers.
That was really fun to watch and you're a great spokesperson for East Texas. Thank you!
First, you have a lovely accent. I grew up in Southeast Texas (Houston area), and I aspire to have more of a Texas accent. (Sadly, despite my Southern American dialect of English, I do not sound Southern at all.) Don't lose your accent.
Second, your accent tag video is high quality. Hats off to you for taking the time to prepare for and edit the video.
Thank you so much
@@StaceyBirdsong You're welcome.
It’s because in Houston you’re surrounded by non Texans. I grew up there in the 1970’s and 80’s. I got tired of people teasing me about my accent as a child so I practiced very hard to not sound “country” and now I wish I hadn’t done that. I too, love the Texas accent.
I always tell people East Texas sounds way more Deep South than other parts. Texas has many accents but I would say there’s a huge difference between a Southern Drawl and a Texas Twang.
I have a noticeable accent. And I'm Hispanic. But I'm pretty sure Texan have a twang' even in east Texas, not a drawl
Considering were the south WEST
Not just south

@@latraviusblanton9390Howdy Neighbor. Tyler here.
Bs. All of TX has a southern dialect but native Texans r blind to that fact. 😂 Yes, deep E. TX, and say, Odessa, have more extreme versions of what r blatantly southern-sounding dialects native to all of the 'great' Republic of Tex[uh]zzz.
Texans, and southerners are the best in the world, have an action packed day always here for everybody praying for everybody keep it awesome God bless
My husband is from SE Texas, I’m from central Texas. I went to visit his family and his step dad asked my husband’s mother “where’s my sharts?” I started laughing bc most people know the word “shart” (thanks to the movie Along Came Polly). Apparently he was referring to his “shorts”.
No, no... it's "showurts". Thank you.
Grocery cart. Cart. In a pinch, yes I have called it a basket…..but from a distance. If I’m already pushing it: if it’s less than three feet from my person, then it’s always a cart. Why? Not sure, just a thing my people & I do.
All “soft drinks” are Cokes unless otherwise specified.
Oil is not “all”. Oil is pronounced with two syllables as in oy-yull.
The TV remote is the remote. If I hear “clicker”, I go all Greta Thunberg.
“Hey ya’ll” is the standard greeting upon first meeting.. “Bye ya’ll” indicates an impending departure. In my part of Texas, “Hey” took over as Hi, when I was a kid, though Hi is still used, hi and hey are now used interchangeably.
We used to “paper” houses. But I’m 62 and that could have been what was said back in the early 70’s when I was a mere sapling. Geographic locale might have been factor as well.
Granddaddy Longlegs, but Daddy Longlegs isn’t out of the realm of possibilities.
It’s puh-KAHN. Never PEE-can. And it’s PRAY-leen. PRAH-leen if you’re a Yankee. Paula Dean really should know better….but then again, she incorrectly serves brown gravy, instead of thick, creamy white country gravy with her fried chicken…WRONG!!!!!
I have heard the phrase “The Devil is beating his wife” if the sun comes out while it’s still raining. It’s not all that popular any longer, but not completely foreign. What’s weirder is that if it continued to thunder as well as rain in the presence of the sun, that meant “the devil was now eating redhots”. Ya’ll know- -the red, cinnamon candy bits??!
I never had a Meemaw nor did any of my other friends from my era. There were Nannies, Nanas, Grannies, Mimis & Meemies, maybe even a Gran or Big Mama or two, but while I’d heard of a grandmother referred to as a Meemaw, I never actually knew anyone who used the term.
Roley Poley??? We called those doodle bugs or pill bugs, right or wrong, that’s what we called those little armadillos of the insect world.
The store is ALWAYS the grocery store. And it doesn’t matter if you went to the bank first or picked up dry cleaning, you’re still going to “the store”. As the place you’ll spend the most time and money, it gets principle designation. Unless someone has no life and demands a complete break down of your errand itinerary.
For those playing the home game, I was born and raised in South Central Texas. Educated collegiately in Austin, lived in Houston for 2.5 decades, then retired early and moved to the Texas Hill Country, NW of San Antonio, just SW of Austin.
So there.
Southern Texan here we say soda water , shoppin cart , grocerie store. What I say when it’s raining and the suns out is WHAT THA HELL! Is goin on!!lol …
The way you look and talk would absolutely, positively make me melt! Soooooo lovely! Incredibly lucky husband, that's for sure!
Thank you 😊
As a Brit there's something very attractive about a Texas accent.
Well thank you
@Sakkra1993 haha thank you so much
The Southern accent comes from the British accent. Most from the old South (with the expectation of Texas) are from a Scots-Irish background.
Majority of Texas don’t speak like her, you’ll probably be disappointed. Go to north east Texas if you want to hear at least a twang
I love a British accent. I'd trade you my East Texas accent. 😊
Wrapping! Finally someone called it what we did. I'm from South Texas. I'm guessing South East Texas is what we in South Texas call East Texas.
A lot of people get that confused. I live in southeast Texas, and east Texas is NOT the same lol. They sound really different than we do.
In addition to "the devil's beating his wife", my O'ma used to say that if the trees and grass are moving like there's wind, but there isn't, "the devil's walking."
Wow. I’ve never heard that phrase either
Hi👋
So many Texas towns were settled by Germans. I wonder if that saying originally comes from Germany.
All I heard in Houston was soda. In Mississippi, everything was a coke.
In west Texas we’d greet everyone with, “how’s your mom ‘n’ them”.
I'm a native Texan. I say soda and grew up saying coke, soda, or soda water.
Always been sodiewater for us lol
Omg. I LOVE your accent!
Haha thank you!
When it’s raining and it’s sunny, where I grew up (in the country outside of Houston) we would say, “the devils beatin his wife”.
Facts
I say that too!
FACTS!

In Casablanca Morocco North Africa , we say the wolf get married lol
Thank you very much. I'm Italian but I'm so curious and very impressed, i mean enchanted by USA accents 😍🙏
San Antone’ here … and I approve this video lol . Up in Dallas, the Dwaw” is heavy as well . I know here in South Texas / Hill Country (Austin -San Antonio ) we do have a bit of an accent, though I can’t hear it but I visited a few friends up in Chicago they quickly asked where I was from . It’s weird! I was talking to a friend in line ordering in a restaurant and a man turned around ‘“ Dallas “? .. lol . Btw my personal favorite “ Do whaaaa??” Lol great video cheers from San Antonio ya’ll!!
Im from south east texas.!! Its about the same but we said memaw and pepaw the thing at the store is a cart. But our accents sound completely different I liked this video.!
Y’all. She said southeast Texas accent. Not the same as east Texas. Some of y’all are confusing it. I do not have an east Texas accent, but I do have a southeast Texas accent
Your accent is definitely genuine, but I am struck by how differently you answered some of the questions than I would, coming from just north of San Antonio in what I would call Central Texas (but bordering South Texas). We would say we're going to T.P. someone's house. We call them pill bugs, not rolley polies. Carbonated drinks are sodas or soda water ("What kinda soda water d'y'all want?"). The "wheeled contraption" is a shopping cart. The San Antonio accent is slightly different, I'd say, but pretty close! You say "friend" and "ten" almost the same, as if they are two-syllable words- "Fray-und" and "tay-un," and I don't think it is as strong as that around here, but I hear more nasal twangs than what I hear from you. Of course, so many people are moving to Texas. Back in the 60's and 70's everyone talked like the same. Our accents are fading quickly.
I was unaware anybody in Texas said "pill bugs". I thought that was a northeast thing. Here in Fort Worth, most I know have always said rolley polie.
@@marcuscook5145 OK, full disclosure. My wife of 42 years (we started dating in high school) was born and raised north of San Antonio in a German community. She is from 100% German heritage. I got “pill bug” from her. Maybe there was a German influence to that term? I don’t know. I was born into a military family and didn’t move to Texas until I was 13. We called them rolly polies before I got to Texas.
I am retired and have never heard anyone say "pop" for a soda which in Texas is a nickname word used for our father. Hey Pop, want to go fishing? etc. Also Meemah and Boopah are grandparents on the fathers side, then Grandma and Grandpah on our mothers side so we are not confused. "Shopping cart" has always been "Buggy" because the horse and buggy thang never stopped being used by my grandparents and parents. But how many have also heard it called a "Basket"? Lol
@@marcuscook5145 as a Texan born and raised i never heard of pill bug.. I’d call it a rollie pollie
She talks vastly different than myself accent wise and I'm from galveston.
Quite odd.
It's not a "roly poly", it's a "doodle bug". The wheeled contraption (I LOL'ed that) is indeed, a "buggy". (I'm a transplanted Txn to WA state, they have no clue why I called their shopping carts "buggies". Less letters?) You been to my store, haven't yuh? Carbonated drinks are "cokes" when someone knows which one you always drink. Then you have to tell 'em "diet dr. pepper not the real one". They're not "tennis shoes"; they're "tenny shoes". All y'all = alluhyall. Spider=daddy longlegs (usually) but I call 'em dead--no matter what kind. Rainfall when sun shines=devil beating his wife. Dove "coo"=rain crow. (that was a freebie) Thing you change channels with = "that thing you switch the channels with" (I'm 68 and I still cain't get used to switchin' channels without punching a button ON the tv with my finger or turnin' the dial) Though I live in a state known for its "salmon" I refuse to say "sammon". It's SALMON. Just like it's spelled. I'm from Houston TX. Not all native Texans speak like she does (or me), I think you need about three generations of drawlers before they get it 'right'.
I'm in Northeast Texas. I love listening to different accents. I remember a lady had been in Texas for years but I could still detect her New England accent.
I was raised in northeast Texas but I live in southeast Texas for 32 years and I have some of both accents v
Beautiful accents😍😍😍😍 lovely
I like this video and the southern accent in general. I grew up in Europe and as a young guy I heard the song "Teddy Bear's Last Ride". This touching text was spoken by Diana Williams and she had that accent I love so much. I don't know if she was from Texas or Tennessee but since then I've been fascinated by the drawl and twang of the south.
Red Sovine recorded the spoken word song originally. Listen to his version. That's some heavy drawl.
You sound completely normal!!! 😂
I'm from Monahans, in west Texas.
Your accent is EXACTLY the way to talk good English that I learned from my Texan girlfriend very many years ago.
In fact, I had difficulties understanding English with a different accent, like radio and television programs, something that I had to learn during the following years.
First time in London, and I couldn't understand hardly anything from what was said through the loudspeakers at the subway or from the taxi drivers.
She was from Port Arthur, and we had been a very close couple for several years before I visited her family and friends there carrying my Southeast Texas accent without having been there before.
I do believe that I learned an excellent English language, although I always had and still have some US accent.
Nice and easy-going people that I met around Beaumont, Orange, and Port Arthur. The Golden Triangle as they used to call it.
Someone told me that with my accent I shouldn't say that I was Spanish, because in fact I was a Spaniard coming from the other side of the puddle at the coast near France, where weather is much milder than the damn heat we had there in summer BTW.
Hot as hell and humid down there on the coast at the gulf near Houston.
No hurricanes at Northern Spain either!
Thank you very much for sharing the lovely accent of yours.
Not at all easy to find indeed!
It's "the Devil beating his wife" and you know it!
Right! 🤣🤣
I can honestly say I have never heard of that term so there's no need to leave a snarky comment here....thanks
@@StaceyBirdsong yet somehow that comment was snarky af... Well played, ma'am. Well played.
We also call shopping carts "buggy" in western Pennsylvania. And we say wash (worsh) the same way also.
Hello... How r u doin? I was in Beaumont, TX from 2008 to 2011. When I heard your words that you said, I think this is exactly SE texas accent 😄😄. So missing beaumont and state fair, thanks for beautiful video.
Thank you! I think they are getting ready to do the state fair right now actually.
The thicker the Southern Accent, the sexier it is. At least to a Dane like me 😁
Greetings from Denmark.
Hello 👋🏼
@@StaceyBirdsong hej.
I’m from south east Texas. We say just about the same way except...
The thing at the grocery store is basket.
And when it is sun shining and raining at the same time I say, “The devil is beating his wife.”
I'm also from south east texas and I've also heard that phrase
I’m literally just outside of Dallas and we say cart or curse.
@@imagirl688 Okay. Good for you? There are multiple ways to say things. And sense you wanna be all smart, “basket” is a gulf coast thing. Dallas is not the gulf coast.
@@cocodongeorge2793 Pardon me, I didn’t mean to be offensive. I just wanted people to know how I say it from my part of Texas.
Accent? This is how these words are pronounced! Like those pieces of furniture we keep clothes in- Chester Drawers..
Another South East Texan here. I got a Mimi, Grama, pawpaw, and grumps😅 if i was speaking to my daddy it was pops, when i speak about him its daddy. My momma is momma or Personal Incubator if im messin with her. Accent is "Axe-yint" you gotta hava coke. Yes its a buggy, my family says worsh instead of wash. We normally speak a little slower than the normal Texan. We also mix a little cajun in our speech cause my family originally from Louisiana down by Thibedeax my great great grama didnt speak hardly a lick of English. My other side comes from Mississippi, and South East Texas. And i believe my Mimis family comes from Austin Texas. Im a mixed bag with a mixed dialect😂
I’m from central Texas we say Basket and drizzle I’ve never heard that devils wife thing but everything else spot on
I’m from southern Virginia and I say the words the exact same as you lol
Southeast Texan here also.....I am proud and have been complimented on my slow southern drawl. Comments especially when in California or Minnesota.
Born and raised Orange, Texas but got out asap.
Oh yes I’ve gotten a lot of compliments on mine too. I’m Originally from Buna, just down the road from orange! We travel full time so we got out quickly too
lol. I was born in Utah, moved to California, moved to Texas, then into Wisconsin with summers in Jersey. Funny how California/Texas/Jersey come out with certain words. Anywhere I go in the US, people always ask “where the hell are you from?” I got like all 4 major accents in my vocal. West coast, Texan/southern, Midwestern, east coast all mixed together haha
@@tymark1 haha that’s pretty awesome to have a mix of the accents. I try my hardest to do a Jersey accent but it’s probably very wrong 😆
💟
As someone from Texas (little north of Houston ) I always thought I didn’t have a accent but after repeating the words you were supposed to say… I say it exactly the same 😂
Same, just north of Houston and same. But a lot of people on here are calling it “east Texas accent” which isn’t the same as southeast, Texas
Also from SE Tx. ( Beaumont area) We sound exactly alike
it's a sunshower, when it rains but the sun is out. it's a sunshower. im from east texas
Thanks
Sorry, salmon wasn't how I say it lol still love the video. You're awesome. Remind me of 30 family members
Thanks for watching 🙏🏼
I'm from southeast Texas too...the one about the rain...my mom always said the devil is whipping his wife. 😬 Everything else is how I've always said it. I had a Mee Mee too! Loved the video
See I’ve never heard that lol. My husband said I should have said that it meant it was humid as hell outside 😂😂 which is so true. Haha glad you liked it
I’m in North Texas 🥰
Nice , in from Houston
You nailed every word as I know it. Most specifically "crayon"...just read the word. It's not Cran or Crown. I never got that lol they think us southerners are dumb lol
This is so interesting! I’m born and raised in central/eastern Nebraska and I say 95% of these words! I’ve been asked if I have an accent but I never thought I did. Maybe it’s just the similar vocabulary as someone with a Southern accent? 🤔
Everyone has an accent, you just don't notice yours because you're acclimated to it.
I’m suppose to go on a date with a woman that has a thick Texas accent. She gave me a heads up. I don’t know what to expect.
We gonna catch a mess of catfish fer supper and fry 'em up
Pearland, TX
Lol we moved to Michigan from Texas. I asked my sister up here if they have and iron but I pronounced it “urn.” She said “yeah we have one right there with my grandpa’s ashes n it lol.”
Lol that’s hilarious.
I always wanted to marry a woman with your accent. My family came from Texas to California in the 1920s but we still have relatives there in west Texas. Your state has the nicest people among the 42 states I’ve been to..
Thank you for the kind words 🥰
@@StaceyBirdsong 😊👌🏽
That was fun
Glad you liked it
Ma'am, they are "tenny shoes" in Texas.
Frenss, nice pronunciation of friends
Haha thanks
Houston here, we call rain that comes down on a sunny day “ghetto rain”.
Haha well that’s one thing to call it
East Texas 903 Longview
Say take a right at the light. I am from Southeast Texas😅
Southwest Louisiana with southeast Texas mother.....we sound alike 😂
It's funny cause I was born and learned how to talk in southeast Texas I was born in Beaumont
Oddly, most of the word pronunciations (besides the southern "twang") aren't that different from where I live (western Oregon). Thanks for this video :)
We called it teepeeing a house not what she said lol
When it's raining while the sun is shining... The devil is beating his wife with a frying pan. My Great grandmother used to say this all the time.
Baytown Texas. I never notice my accent till I moved to pa, hope I don't lose it
I read somewhere a persons accent becomes permanent at around 12yrs of age 12.
I think it was in an article about Mel Gibson moving from the U.S. to Australia at 12 and he retained his American accent.
I live in the most south east part of Texas. Right by Port Arthur. Right by the State line. Plus hearing people calling one drink just coke makes me cringe. The shoe and bug and the buggie is true for our area. I really don’t hear “The devil beating his wife” much. But I can confirm most of this.
Oh yeah you are right down the road from me!!
I grew up in Sulphur, LA. I sound(ed) like people from East Texas. I've mostly lost my accent but I still say the words...giving myself away. ;)
I’m from the USA lol I’m doing a state report for Texas and I wanna learn the accent or a accent you guys use
If u can reply can u pls say hey Giulianna? Or hey yall
Add “burrito” “McDonald's” and “pet”. BURR-eet-toe, MAC-Dawn-uls, pay-uht. Also drop a lot of consonants at the end of words. Like the d in “friend (“girlfren”,) most gs in -ing endings (fixin’, spitting’ waiting, etc). And leave out “are”- Where you going? What you doing? Where your people from? -former SETXan
Haha yep you got it right!! Lol that’s about what I sound like
I think blacks and whites talk different in southeast Texas because I’m from Beaumont we talk different her
Pop here!
😛 no judgement here lol I don’t think I’ve ever heard that used where I’m from but so cool how different everyone talks
From orange, we always used sodawater,pop,cold drink, & coke( just depends on the age group).
Were you saying France or friends at the end?
😂 I was saying friends lol
I was just about to ask the same thing. I kept hoping she would use it in a sentence. How do you suppose it sounds if she says, "I'm going to France with my friends." -- ???
I've traveled a lot around the USA, and everyone thinks I'm from South East Texas...but I'm not. Can you guess where I might be from? My accent is a"spittin image" of yours!
Awesome. Thank you. I think your accent is Gorgeous. I'm from BRAZIL, what do I know, right?. Anyway, you sound beautiful.it does sound different but beauty different. Thanks.
Thank you
Hello I am making a movie with a dude from a Houston suburb.
Thank you for doing this!
At the end are you saying friends? France?
Much appreciation -David
I’m saying friends at the end lol
@@StaceyBirdsong Haha wonderful, thank you friend!
@@StaceyBirdsong I've been hanging out with a friend from North Carolina. Now my mom is teasing me when we talk on the phone because of the way I say "friend"...
"Fraynd" lol!!
Okie, you kind of sound like one us, but there is a few settle difference, at least with me, with really for example I say realleh generally and a few other small things
I guess Mimi is a southeast texan thing my relatives in Lafayette think its weird an my Mimi say mayonnaise as “ MyNez” cuz her great grandmother/ her mom is from Lafayette with a Thick Cajun Accent
I love the Cajun accent!! ❤️❤️ my sister in law is Cajun!
When I first moved to Louisiana when I was 3, I lived in Eunice. Cajun was part of what I learned while I was still learning to speak! My Godmother's (my nanny's) mom and dad spoke Cajun half the time so I had to at least know some of it! lol!
I had Mawmaws and Pawpaws. Those were followed by first names if we wanted to talk about them specifically, like: Mawmaw Thelma and Pawpaw Paul. (Those are real names...yeah. Pawpaw Paul! lol)
Hi Stacey! Which city in Texas are you from?
I’m from Buna but live in Kirbyville. Southeast Texas
From Jasper
@@bdeffendall hey neighbor!! 👋🏼👋🏼
@@StaceyBirdsong Your video had me cracking up. Living in Central Texas now but I grew up in Jasper and notice that accent when I visit.
@@bdeffendall lol glad I brought you a good laugh. I get a lot of comments about my accent when we travel
France or friends? I'm not sure what it was. And what's a MeeMee? Was it All, or oil? California here.
I said “friends” and a meemee is what I call my gramdma.
I called my grandma “Mimi” also. I’m from DEEP East Texas (Piney Woods area) and I sound just like you. I also pronounce those words the same as you! ❤
They meant mineral water
I think everyone says Spittin' image .. That's likely not an accent thing just how words are said in a native language. I did hear loads of other changes though as to how things are said in the North East.
@Paul Smith Same here in NJ .. they went huntin on Saturday. We're drivin instead of flying .. A lot of folks make dropping the ING a unique accent thing when it really is so often not. There are thankfully some really fun vowel changes, R endings on words ( or lack there of ) etc that keep us unique but the ING is not one of them.
Wull, ol'rat! Ah had me a fann tam list'nen to y'all tauk'n Ticksun.

You have more like a standard American accent
You just might know where Lumberton is then😁
Oh yes I definitely know where Lumberton is. It’s about 30 minutes from where I live. Have to go through Lumberton to get to Beaumont where we do shopping at bigger stores 😉
@@StaceyBirdsong well in that case you must have grown up where I did around Evadale and Buna, maybe Kirbyville. I'll say no more :-)
@@TheDeepsix13 you’re right! I grew up in Buna. Married a guy from Kirbyville and now live in Kirbyville

Id love to see your reaction to a Newfie or Toronto accent
Is love to hear them! I love accents
I am coming to Beaumont for ms , will you connect with me
The last one, are you saying France, or friends?
-Dallas TX
I was saying friends 😂
@@StaceyBirdsong I was following along with everything you said until that last part 😂. I like the East Texas accent (I just call it the Longview/Tyler accent). It almost sounds like Louisiana, but I think the French component is what makes it sound good :).
Great video!
Thank you!
@@benjaminjensen6485 The Longview/Tyler/Marshall accent of East Tx is also known as the Piney Woods area. That’s where I’m from. When I lived in Houston, many there would tell me my accent was very thick! 😊
I needs some paper for the toilet
PSA: Southern East Texas is not the same thing as South East Texas.
?? Not quite sure what you’re meaning by this comment. I live in south east Texas
South East Texas is Corpus up to Houston, east of San Antonio, but South of I-10. Southern East Texas would be like Beaumont and Port Arthur
@@jacobabrahamson4931 well I’ve lived here my whole life and it always been called south east Texas even the radio/news stations call this area that. Texas is a huge state and I’m sure all the residents of this state call all the geographical areas different names
@@StaceyBirdsong we sure do. Im from Port Lavaca, TX and we consider ourselves South Texas, but someone from the RGV probably doesn't. To us anything east of Houston is just East Texas. I live in Central Texas now (Georgetown) and they think of anything south of Austin as just "South Texas."
@@jacobabrahamson4931 no corpus is south central east is by Louisiana,Arkansas and Oklahoma
Y’all is better than “youse guys “
Yeah I’d much rather say y’all than the other
White Texans and Hispanic Texans are completely different lol i have completely different words
A lot more similarities between the groups if they are both old-stock Americans. U would be surprised.
I'm a hybrid of both. I completely agree.
I'm from the "brush country" between Corpus and Laredo, but I've been living in the LRGV for 14 years and I have noticed that the Hispanics here don't sound like the vaqueros I grew up with. The Hispanics north of here do have a Texas accent, but if they have lived in a larger town all their lives, then not so much. People in the Rio Grande Valley generally don't have much of an accent unless they grew up in the "ranch country" north of here or they are native Texan "Anglos". The winter Texans down here have various different accents, but none of them are Texas accents or even southern accents.
Also, in addition to not having a Texas accent, most of the young people in the "Valley" are citified through and through; I hardly ever meet anyone under the age of 40 who has ever touched a cow. And another thing, over the last 20 years, fewer and fewer young people speak much Spanish. It seems like Spanglish is taking over.
Nothing wrong with how you say those words……..but I’m from Northeast Texas…..so….
Watch and listen to mine.
how dare you say COKE first lmao
😂😂
You sound like a Texas girl
This sounds like Rusk.
WTH does that mean?
@@StaceyBirdsong Rusk, TX
