true. I got that when I went to Oregon. They kept wanting me to say New Jersey and every time I said it, they laughed and said joisey... I don't say it like that. wooder is water, yea
My friends say joise to piss me off cuz I live in pa now and they thought our New Jersey accent was basically a Boston accent and they have learned you don’t say joise if you are from jersey so they say joise anyway because I always tell them to just shut up.
When someone says "You're from Jersey?" I simply explain to them, no, I'm from New Jersey, Jersey is an Isle in the English Channel. Shuts them up pretty fast.
I had older Jewish friends from Queens who "berled" their water, and put "earl" in their cah. I never knew anyone who went to joisey city to hear the boids choip, but my Brooklyn friends had cahs with powah steering and rubbah tires.
I think most people would agree it depends on where in New Jersey do you live . I used to work with a lady that was from North Jersey and lived 15 minutes from the 5 boroughs of New York and sounded just like NY and was irritable with people asking her if she's from NY . I also worked with South Jersey that sounded nothing like her .
Perfect example of the S. Jersey/Philly accent is Bruce Willis in Pulp Fiction. Another great example is actually in the HBO series, The Wire (Baltimore accent is very similar). Not the main cast, but some of the other parts. The high school principle in season 4 and the harbor patrol guy who Mcnulty works with in season 2 are good examples. Danny Pino's character, Scotty, in the tv show Cold Case is a fine example too.
from Frank W. Sinatra Jr. to Bugs Bunny, I love my yankee style, I WAWK WITH A BOUNCE and TAWK WITH CONFIDENCE and in the words of Brooklyn's most beloved rabbit, " Gee, ain't I a stinker? "
im from central jersey when people ask me if im from north or south i get confused because i dont sound like any of those people but i have heard the people who do since i spent most summers down the shore in wildwood
I'm from south Jersey and so we don't say "Joisey" we say Jersey. We do talk fast compared to other states but that's just our culture. I believe we do tend to slurry some words as well. I contacting people should be making assumptions based on what they have heard if the have never even met someone from New Jersey.
0:35 Yea I didn’t really notice anything particular about the first two guys but as soon as she popped up on screen I knew exactly how she was gonna sound
I still remember, when someone asked me in a grocery store I work, where are the eggs, and the way she pronounced "eggs" was something like "ek". And also, another person pronounced like that, and this time there was another person listening, so I was not the only one who noticed it. At first, I didn't understand it, she probably was from another state; and the other person as well. But because I first encountered the first person, I already understood him; but my coworker didn't, and told him he was looking for eggs. Here in New Jersey (North Jersey), we say eggs, like egggsss. But she was like "eks", or "ex".
The vowels tend to stretch outside of the city. Near Philly the 'o' vowel is especially lengthened. You'll hear people say 'h(oh)me' for home and ph(own) for phone.
I'm from Jersey and people has said I talk like I'm from Jersey. And yeah that one kid in the being is wrong, we sound very different from New York City, ask any New Yorker that. we don't sound anything like New York and never will. Maybe in some places in Jersey City sounds like New Yorkers, but we sound very different from New York.
From north to the northern part of Central Jersey a lot of people have similar accents to New Yorkers. I'm from Rahway (North/Central Jersey) and me and most people pronounce words like coffee, on, dog, etc just like NYers do. The biggest difference is we usually pronounce r's more (we say car instead of cah) but the further north you go the more the accent sounds like NYC.
In 1994 I went to Myrtle Beach. My second nite there we went out to eat and as we settled into our seats, the waitress introduces herself. I spoke 3 words and she stopped me and says Your from New Jersey arent you. I was like how did she know this. She said I have a Jersey accent. Thats when i knew I was culturely à Jersian.
There isn’t a single New Jersey accent. Let’s take South Jersey for example. Since that’s where I grew up and I’m most familiar with the language there. Someone from the Pine Barrens will have a different accent than someone from Cumberland County. And there will be another accent in Cape May County. In South Jersey you have a mixture of a Philadelphia accent and a Midlantic Tidewater accent. Where you are from will determine if the Philadelphia accent is more prevalent or if the tidewater accent is more prevalent. North jersey is a completely different thing. The eastern part of North Jersey is pulled very much towards a New York accent. The western part of North Jersey to my ear, is actually a little more neutral.
I feel for all you southerners who feel they are on guard and always defending their TRUE accent, forever making it clear THAT I DO NOT TALK LIKE THAAAT. I really do. be proud of who you are......its not your fault that the rest of the country is in love with MY neighborhoods, My alpha male attitude, My woman's strong backbone, My diversity in cultures and My yankee wit! hollywood LOOOOOVEESS US. even to the point of the ridiculous reality show, but hey, it is what it is.......
@TheViralNation Yes everyone has an accent. Only a couple of people (ok exagerating a little bit) dicided wich accent there should be on tv. Im from holland so sorry for the spelling but its the same over here. There is one good way and the rest is "accent".
That is south Jersey. North Jersey accent is in Hudson and Essex county and even Union and Bergen county. Immigrations change or revolutionize ways of living, eating and talking. This video is either outdated or it simply does not show north Jersey accent as it is today.
I am from Jersey and I have the "Joizey accent". everywhere I go people love it. And btw when you full pronounce NEW JERSEY we tend to say Na Jaseryy..
I'm in jersey shore and we say wuh-ter for water We say New jer-z (or at least i do) We never say jer-c or jersey by itself I don't feel we talk fast, i feel other people talk the same speed
idk, i'm born and bred from new jersey and i don't sound much like any of these people except the kid in the beginning. even then, I don't say water like that
...am i the only one who cant tell the difference between a New Jersey "accent" and my own local accent (im in California)? is anyone here even using an accent? or is it so subtle that its unnoticable? or maybe im just being dumb idk
Ehh. I don't say "grateetude" and I don't say 'on' like 'awn' in a really strong way. It's kind of like the o in Coffee which is pronounced like 'cough'-ee. I feel like the SJ accent is less noticeable than a north jersey accent... maybe cause we tend to run our words together ("d'jeet yet?") and because we talk so fast. & I don't say 'casiner' but I do say ('Lanic City) haha.
saying joisy is the archie bunker accent that is from brooklyn and bronx from early 1900's and is nearly extinct now... jersey shore kids talk more ny not typical jersey

I am from new jersey(joisey) and people will ask if I am from Brooklyn. no offense Brooklyn, no I am from new jersey. so I guess my speaking sounds like a New Yorker. when I go down to Florida they look at me funny because to them I have an accent and they to me being southern they have an accent. it is a little funny how we northerners have accents to their ears. but I 💘 it.

Sylvester Stallone in Rocky for a S Jersey accent? OMG no! Honestly in tv/movies you never hear a south Jersey accent. In fact most of the time you don't even hear an NJ accent on tv. It's always a NY accent. A character could be from NJ and guarantee they will sound like the northeast NJ/NY accent. I think the movie Clerks is probably the only one where you constantly hear an NJ accent through the movie. Other actors like Tom Cruise or Jack Nicholson don't sound NJ at all.
I'm so glad I've lost my jersey accent. I havent lived there in almost 30 years. And yes I always said I was from South Jersey. Never Jersey or New Jersey.....Always South Jersey. We didn't like to be associated with North jersey. Every time I visit I always laugh when I hear the accent because I didn't know I funny I sounded when I lived there.
Linda Browning: I've lived in Indiana for 49 years and people still ask me if I'm from N.J. (north) It especially comes out after I've watched some sopranos episodes. Most of my summer neighbors were from Brooklyn - they drove their cahs, the tires were made of rubbah.
Linda, ditto. I occasionally work with a guy who moved to Boston 40 years ago. He’s very proud that he never lost his South Jersey accent. And every time we get together my accent just starts creeping right back in. The word is wooder.
Lol yeah right, parts of North Jersey are legit under 10m away from Manhattan. Put it this way, East Rutherford, NJ, where the Giants and Jets play, is closer to Times Square than Yankees Stadium in the Bronx is. North Jersey is super close to NYC obviously the accent will and does rub off somewhat.
Da dawgs ran in da wawta , now its all over da f----- house. Dats Jersey. Pure Kearny, pronounced "carny" Everybody else speaks some kind gypsy gibberish
anyone who’s not from jersey, we DO NOT say “joisey”, and no we all do not sound like we’re from ny only north jersey does

Exactly
Nobody in Jersey says fucking Joyzee.

The ‘Iggle’ thing for ‘eagle’ I’ve heard in Pittsburgh. Didn’t know that bled over towards Philly and Jersey.
I love the strong new jersey accent.
