It's a sad thing, I believe, at least, when we lose our accents. Who wants just a bland old Midwestern standard American accent! I don't! I think our accents give us color and character. Just my opinion, others may look at an accent as lowering oneself. Thank you for watching! That accent is still in you somewhere!
I still have my accent Im 15 I have a Cajun accent!!!
@katelyn Sunshine I agree. Idw lose my Long Island accent
XOXOXO
Midwestern accents have their own character. The standard American accent is a hodge podge of a bunch of different reason. You can’t possibly listen to a Chicago and think of it as bland.
Super interesting, I wish I kept my Victorian Australian accent rather than gain a more basic Australian accent when I moved up North.
Gambit !!
That is an extremely small minded perception on accents. I have an education and I do not feel the need to have to prove that to you. There is not one person in this world who does not have an accent...if you can speak and you are not deaf then you have an accent (no offense to deaf people). Based on the location that one grows up in each person has their own regional way of pronouncing or their words, or how they inflect certain pronunciations. Understand that Mr. Educated proper English.
Katelyn , Iz ther sum stuped sum betch gevin you problumz ? Lotta idjitz ul say thet it jus lazee english . But thay full a corn . If, they bother you anymore . Let me know.
You do you girl :3 I'm black and white and from Long island and Upstate NY so my accent is all over the place haha I feel ya

Well said. Accents are not bad at all. They are natural parts of our lives.
Although I do have trouble understanding some east coasters.
I would never hurt their feelings though.
I live in Louisiana, but I don't have that thick of an accent, but go like one town over and everyone has it. It's strange how some places will have that thick accent and some won't. But we pronounce everything like that, yet without the accent.
Marilyn Loves Same here from prairieville but no accent.
I moved a little bit west and suddenly everyone had a country accent, it was hard to get used to

I love the New Orleans accent... The creole influence on the way the words are pronounced are amazing! Way different from other parts of Louisiana.
They're all better than northern La. Just saying. Lol
This isn’t new orleans
@@bgoat97 when people think of NY, it's rarely ever Syracuse. Frustrating, but not surprising that that never think of places like Lafayette, Breaux Bridge, Opelousas, etc.
harmonyzmyne no offence but you’ll black folks from New Orleans have the best dialect accent compare to white folks from New Orleans period hands down not even close💯
One of the most interesting American accents.
I like all regional accents but the Southern Louisiana accent is probably my favorite. Especially the words "theater" and "water." thanks for posting this.
Im from opelousas/Lafayette and I knew your accent RIGHT AWAY
That's straight Breaux Bridge, Lafayette, Church Point, St Martinville, Broussard, Youngsville,..... Yeah sha!!!
Lol
Yesss😂
Cree Me LOL! Yep!
Sure is!
BRUH I WAS ABOUT TO SAY. im some opelousas/Lafayette and I couldn't help but laugh lol.
Pierre part!
I love hearing what everyone picks up on in my accent. That's great that I kind of sound Caribbean hahha! Btw I checked out you video and I think that it's great that you are spreading the good word on youtube! Keep on keeping on!
dont know which is more cute her or her accent.
and yeah, it does sort of sound like a Southern colonial version of a new jersey accent or something. That's interesting. Real different from the rest of the South. But this girl has some New Orleans "yat" influence in her speech too.IMO
Not just only southwest LA Cajun.
alot of people from New Orleans get asked if they are from New York because of the "Yat" accent. It was influenced not only by Cajuns but by Irish and even Italian settlers as well, or so I've read.
That's probably why it sounds similar to a Jersey or New York accent
Gotta love those Southern belles!
You must be blind this woman looks like an alien and needs a haircut and some morals she needs to my makeup may be ugly woman

I understand all of it.
Born in Florida, live in South Carolina. I understand it all lol
Husband?! NOOOOOOOO!!! ;-)
I am from upper Michigan, which has an accent very similar to Canadian with some Finnish influence as well. I've been in southern Louisiana a few times now and it blows my mind the similarities between the Cajun and Canadian accents. Historically and culturally of course it makes sense, but with how strong the southern accent is, you'd think it would have diluted by now. But every time I am in the Beaux Bridge area I hear a local talk and instinctly think to myself I HEAR A CANADIAN! It's so cool to see and hear this accent and culture live on despite all the displacement, and every time I hear a southern Louisiana person talk it reminds me of home... in Michigan. How crazy is that?
my family is from South Carolina and I was raised in VA..the way you pronounce a lot those words are the same way we pronounce them
i aint heard "gaaah-lee" in a long time, lol!
It's SOOOO similar to a southern accent, but with a Brooklyn twist lol! I love it! All of my fam is from LA but I grew up in Georgia
Dropping the 'er' and replacing it with an 'a' gives your accent some common ground with New Englanders, especially the Boston area.
I am from Lafayette Louisiana area and I call a cart a basket...lol.....and say envelope (in-velope)
Me too! Lafayette!!!!
Ashley Henry Lafayette here too... more specifically Upper Lafayette :)
Same
This didn't fit in my previous comment -

Thank you very much :)
wow hahaha! Thank you! I never would have pegged my accent as being "melodic", what a compliment! I usually am told that my accent is "flat" whatever than means
Hi I'm doing a drama performance and the character in my performance is supposed to have a Cajun accent. I was wondering if you could make a video reading aloud these excerpts from my performance. It would help me a lot, thank you so much :)
"Massa, I ain't never gwine to quit yer. I 'm gittin' ole an' feeble, an' my days is few in dis heah lan' o' sorrow an' sin. All I axes is a li'le co'ner whar I kin set down an' wait peaceful fu de en'."
You look very French. Very beautiful girl.
Tres belle Louisiana Jeune fille,mes chere amis.
Derlin Claire I see you took french for 2 seconds 😂😂😂😂
I love your accent. I find most southern accents charming, but the Cajun is really something special!
Same here! I grew up in the Delaware Valley and have been living in NC. I love most Southern accents, but this one is really unique and beautiful.
French drops the final consonant sound of words, so we do that too in cajun english
... whateva......;)
I am Turkish and I can speak English. I didn't know there are different accents in American accents, too! It's very interesting.
She's so damn country. I love it so much!
im 23, and yes it is still very strong in teenagers and kids.I know my accent may be strong,but I'd like to add, my accent is actually a little diluted compared to my father and grandparents accent. If you'd hear my father and I speaking together you'd most likely hear no difference, but of course with every new generation exposed to the mainstream and media, youngsters tend to try to conform to that way of speaking. Overall the accent is still predominant.among young people.. :)
Just running across your video trying to find a good example of what Cajun English sounds like for someone not from the area. My mom's side of the family is from further east (st. James parish) than what is normally considered Cajun country, but the accent and linguistic lineage is the same. You actually sound exactly like one of my cousins, accent and tone of voice. I've also noticed a gradual dilution of the accent with each generation. It really bums me out, but that's how language works I guess. My older cousins and aunts and uncles sound a lot like you, some with even stronger accents, but the ones that are younger than me have only faint hints of it. Mostly in tone an inflection like you mention in other comments. My grandparents' generation had even more, with a lot more French sprinkled in, especially when they were talking with other people their age. My mom moved to the city to go to college and lost her accent in the process, but it would come back out when she got mad at me lol. She's worked with codofil in the past to translate medical literature to be more accessible to folks in acadiana. I'm glad you've posted this, it's so important as a cultural preservation to have an authentic speaker sharing their voice.
Also I've always said "golly" the way that you do and until watching your video, it never occurred to me that it was a unique pronunciation. I don't run into it as often as you probably do, but it's always fun to find out that a word or phrase I'm using that I thought was common English is unfamiliar to someone not from here.
Funny, because crayon is precisely the French word for wax pencil.
Welcome to Cajun English lol
@@irishcajun85 yup lol
I have to guess your from more towards Thibodaux, maybe Morgan city? Perhaps Lake charles? You dont have as thick of a Cajun accent as say Vermilion parish or ather areas in deep SW LA
Thibodaux's my hometown! I live in Seattle now: watching this makes me wanna visit Cajun country again so much!
Edit: around Southeast Louisiana, we say gah-lee, but we also say kaw-lee a little more I think.
When I left Cajun Country I thought my accent was my biggest hurdle, but I got called on a few things like saying "cut the light," or "UM-brulla" or "I been knowing him since kindergarten." And one time a friend was helping me pack and asked if there as anything I needed to put in a box and I said, "You know, I tink dat's full, yeah." He was like, "WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY?" LOL.
Im glad that you left these comments. It is very true how we, including myself, do not realize how much we use both languages here because it's just second nature from hearing it all of our lives. SO very true that sadly, the fluent language of Cajun and creole French is barely spoken by the young generation. The culture, heritage, and traditions still live on, but the language is dying with our grandparents, and the older parents. I do have to give props to local businesses that promote....
Louisiana has very man distinctive accents. Kenner and metarie have an accent. Chalmette is a very distinct and very well recognized accent. Vachery has a specific accent different from Reserve and Gramercy. Houma has a distinctive accent. Lafayette is distinctive. Lake charles is distinctive. The north shore of lake ponchartrain to covington is distinctive. Anything north or Alexandria seems just southern. Baton rouge seems like Dallas nothing specific. Ascension parish around gonzales is distinct. It's completely crazy how different the accents are.
Thank you for makeing this video lol. Because my cousin grew up over there and when he comes to Cali and hangs out with me and my friends they can barely understand a word he's saying and i laugh because i get it perfectly. He has that baton rouge thing going on LOL . Anyway i loved the video and im happy you made it, It was awsome and very informative.
im from new iberia
i call water wa-der
and say know talm bout instead of know what im talking about
I was from iberia too
I live in Houma LA.
i love accents. My favorite by far is the Australian accent, but now that Ive heard yours it definitely tops it. It sounds like a combination of traditional southern drawl mixed with New Jersey/New York City/ black people and French. I guess it comes from the mesh of all the plurality of culture that has been around since New Orleans was founded by the French.
I was born in Louisiana. I relate to alot but I don't have that thick of an accent
Me too
This was the most helpful series on getting this accent down. Thanks for taking the time to do this
my friend Gavin used to live in Louisiana he moved to Texas this year. I looked up pictures of the city he used to live in and I felt so bad. it's looks beautiful there, it looks nothing like Texas. and they had the festival's and accents and music. it must have been hard for him to move. he has an accent himself
American Cajun accent is so fascinating cuz I am British English and I want to visit America someday Louisiana is where I want to visit what's it like?
I love Louisiana accents. I'm from Boston and our accents sound kind of similar since we don't say our r's either. It's so interesting.
From south east Louisiana and I’ve been told I have a strong Boston accent at times. I take as a compliment bc I love that accent
your accent is very sweet. I really like it :)
I miss listening to you. I wonder we're you are today in your life's journey 😊
I'm from New Orleans, and I've found that a lot of New Orleanian's have either have no accent or a very vague one.
I would think that is due to New Orleans being a Metro city...and having people from all over living there. The more that you go into bigger cities..even in the south..the accents are very vague. That would be my view on it. Thanks for watching!
Thanks for your response to my question.
I am from Nola too!
People from New Orleans have accents as well. My parents from N.O and grands from Lafayette. I am from Los Angeles. My N.O. peeps say: "Who dat baby fo"; "I'm bout to go make groceries"; "yay"; "oh but no"; "yes indeed"...etc
Yep that's what we say
I'm from Brazil. I wanna speak like you, what a pretty accent, Southern Louisiana. We gotta keep it alive. 👍
In Los Angeles when it rains when the suns out we call that earthquake weather.
No we don't...
Lol dang
Thank you SO MUCH for sharing this vid! I've always been fascinated with Louisiana accents (there are so many!). I'm actually including a character from Louisiana in my next story (I'm a writer) so this is a big help.
Don't listen to loveteddy0009! I think your accent is perfect!
I live in Denver & miss BR so bad. I lost my accent long time ago. Been movin round the country since '94. Hopefully I'll move back to La.
Happened when I moved to boulder from opelousas/Lafayette. But ive been back since 03 and baby its back
This accent is so rhythmic. Can't wait to live in NOLA.
Quel compliment! Thank you for watching and for the advice. I do plan to do another video within the coming months. I know that there are people out there researching roles for this area or doing research and I would like to help them out in discovering what Louisiana truly is.
Dang! I really love this accent so much!
If you from da 9th wawd... It's "My-Nezz" LOL
Soda-water…..
I love your accent. I'm from the northeastern part of Louisiana, and people here sound no different than those from Mississippi and Alabama. My grandmother was from Cajun country and had an awesome accent similar to yours.
I'm currently in Tokyo but i was born n raised in carencro! I miss cajun country
You are a natural for working in motion pictures as dialect coach. Hollywood make us all sound like 'Gone With The Wind' folks.
I want to buy you a coke, roll you home in my buggy and introduce you to my mamaa and papaa! :) Love your accent!
I am from Northeast LA and I think our accent is a mixture of the whole state..I listen to the accent tags from Shreveport and I found that we say more words closely to the Arcadian accent...This was interesting....
I thought North LA talked more like the rest of the South?
You sound like your somewhere from outside of Baton Rouge like Zachary or Dunham.
An hour or so more north
I think you mean Denham
Which parish or city in louisiana would you say has the strongest cajun accent or the most cajun influence in their culture, im very curious?
I'd have to Say the Vermillion / St Martin / Iberia area still has the thickest accents and has the highest population of people still speaking french at home.
Namnar Bonaparte: That is so true! Lol! I can close my eyes and still hear it! (I live up north now, unfortunately)
Definitely not the Baton Rouge area.
Port Allen, Pierre Part, Lafayette, Donaldsonville, Bayou Corne (Home of the Swamp People)! Houma!
I love "cajun" accent. I live up near Acadia in NorthEastern US. Also its interesting how different the Acadian/French accent is so different from the Parisian French accent. I find the Acadian French to feel much more friendly as do Cajun/Loiusiana accent. Very honest and straightforward , I love it.
I'll chime in with an expression I know we use in the mid-to-lower St. Landry parish that I think Katelyn Sunshine hasn't covered yet is:
*Pooyie* - which can mean something amazing or awful depending on it's use.
For example:
_Amazing_ - Pooyie, the deer steak and smothered potatoes were good!
_Awful_ - (Borrowing one from Urban Dictionary: I had to mow the friggin' grass yesterday. Pooyie, it was hot.)
As stated in Urban Dictionary: _Synonyms include "kyaw", "baw" and "poo" if it is said in a long drawn out high-pitched voice_.
I've used "kyaw" and "poo" as synonyms for pooyie but not "baw" "Baw" (to my brother, friends, and I) was interchangeable with "boy" when one of us was exaggerating or lying about something: "Baw, ya know that ain't true."
The _k_ in _kyaw_ is pronounced like _c_ in _cut_ with _yaw_ drawn out (yaaaawwww).
Also, there are a couple of words used my area that are used often instead of saying it in the English form: *Allons* - for _Let's go_. The other one I'm not sure how to spell it because it's not in _A Dictionary of the Cajun Language_ book by Rev. Jules O. Daigle and my mom said our language is mostly spoken and not documented that well but the word sounds like chant without the letter *t*. So it's like *chan* and the meaning is: _here, take this_. It's used when you have something in your hand and you are telling someone: here, take this. Also use *guêpe* instead of wasp. Guêpe pronounced like gep.
I forgot to add that if anyone who wanted a reference besides the book I listed above, you can use this reference:uiswcmsweb.prod.lsu.edu/hss/french/Undergraduate%20Program/Cajun%20French/item49567.html
lots of people can learn accents... a cajun accent is almost near impossible for someone to learn who wasn't born in it. cajun really is something you have to be born into because that accent is a toughy to master
I agree. My Mom and Dad have tried to stamp some things out of me with no luck....LOL..It is funny because my Mom and Dad grew up in one place their entire life. They judge people by their accents. Because I never lived anyplace longer then 2-3 years I do not do that. So someones intelligence is not determined by their accent with me. Like a Rocket Scientist is less intelligent with a Southern Accent? Who came up with that idea?
Haha! I'm from Michigan and I've never heard someone say, "wicked." I've always associated that with someone from Boston. :) Instead of "golly" we'd probably say, "oh my God!"
I really like your accent.
Thanks, I agree with you. Accents not only come from living in the place you live. I believe how your parents speak ,if they are originally from a different place than the place that they raised you, that their own accents influences your own and it all meshes together into the unique accent that each person has. Cajun cooking is so rich and colorful and it tastes like a rainbow in your mouth! Many try to replicate, but It cannot be replicated !
LOL! that's funny, I have seen a short video on youtube of Rene speaking and he is forcing the pronunciations way to much. He puts too much hard emphasis on his "D" pronunciations.. I actually talk about actors attempting the Cajun accent in my other vid on this subject. Thanks for watching!
Beautiful Southern Belle, finest ladies to ever grace this world.
love your tag, i`m from Scotland and we have a rough accent while yours is very melodic, could listen to you all day :o)
The "golly " might just be something we do here, but its pronounced more like "GAAAHHHHH-LEEE", I guess it can be used in the same way we say "KEYAWW".
you sound like an old black maid, but its funny I like accent, especially when you said theatre
that's funny actually lol!
This the south !
Awesome accent tag! I hear the story about "The Devil beating his wife" from my parents even today.
I was born and raised south of Lafayette and I had a very strong Cajun accent. However, I noticed the accent from an outsider's point of view while I was in middle school and I decided to change that. I admit I sometimes struggle to mock my parent's Cajun accent now! Now my accent is neutral and I constantly get asked if I'm from Louisiana. ~get down~
Hi Katelyn , thanks , met a girl online and she is cajun !
Sexy accent , from a Beautiful girl !
Thanks again!
😉
Interesting about the non-rhotic ("a" rather than "er") endings. I just thought all Americans pronounced the "r'" (over-pronouncing, from my point of view). All Australians/Kiwis and (most) Brits will also pronounce "a" at the end of words - feeva (fever), culla (colour), tye-a (tyre), spida (spider), and so on. Only difference there is "leisure" - we have a short "e", "lezha".
I have seen this video before. This guy is trying to hard to sound Cajun, he is putting too much effort in to his inflection, especially in his first sentence of the video, and to much of a hard emphasis on his letter D in his words..Overall though, he is better than a lot of other actors that I have heard trying to sound Cajun.
our r's are not very pronounced, in my opinion anyway. I don't think our accent here is a "rhodic" accent, which is a type of southern accent that are hard on their r pronunciation. but, maybe this will answer your question, the word "for" with an "or" at the end I would pronounce "fuh", the word "more" I wound say as '"moo-arh"
I agree with that, but just like anywhere else, the blacks here do sounds a bit different from the whites although we basically have the same accent over all.. I also find some of the words that we say sound similar to new jersey accents,like water (wata) and fire (fiiiayah). I watch Mobwives and noticed we say some things similarly to them lol!
Shout out from lake charles!!
Clearly you are just grasping at straws because my accent tag isn't the only one that you say "stop smacking your lips" on. BTW everyone that reads this comment should click on your name and go look at the comments that you put on other videos that you have watched. Have a nice day tangipahoa42 :)
The accent DEFINETY does vary parish to parish....town to town.... the next town over..which is 7 miles up the road has a slight difference in their accent. Same goes for everywhere else, I find.
Many of the old old people here say pop, the younger ones say coke.. or cold drink. If you are a young person down here who was raised by a grandfather or grandmother.. you are more likely to say pop
Blacks folks from New Orleans have that dialect accent but white folks from New Orleans have a different dialect accent I love black folks from New Orleans accent way better they have the best accent period hands down not even close💯
Thanks for the support! It makes me so happy that I did the accent tag everytime I get a comment saying that I did it better that any other southern accent tag!
I’m from south Louisiana born and raised and let me say this… there is no such thing as a “Cajun” accent or “Creole” accent. What is being perceived as these things are the Acadiana accents (the one mistakingly called Cajun) and the Greater New Orleans accents (the ones called Creole). It’s not based on ancestry or race, but region (Acadiana vs Greater New Orleans).
I take issue with this claim of Cajun. There are a mass of people in south Louisiana today that claim a Cajun identity (known as Acadian Creole before the name Cajun was invented), don’t exist anymore as an isolated population since they intermarried with the white French descended people that were already in Louisiana before the Acadians arrived called “French Creoles”, and also mixed with 18th and 19th century whites from the French speaking Caribbean of St. Domingue (colonial Haiti), Martinique, Guadeloupe that were absorbed into them as well as 18th century white French descendants that migrated from Mobile, Alabama when it was French and the British took over Mobile, as well as 19th century French immigrants that arrived in Louisiana by the thousands and were absorbed into them and also absorbing in smaller bits, Louisiana people of 18th century Spanish descent called Spanish Creoles that descend from the Canary Islands of Spain and are known as Isleños and the south of Spain called Malagueños as well as absorbing Louisiana German descendants of 18th century German ancestry called German Creoles whose ancestors arrived in colonial Louisiana in the 1721, and even for some, British/Irish and Italian in small amounts. Add all of that up, and that’s surely not an Acadian, so not a Cajun. A better term would be Creole. White Creoles of predominantly French background, but with little bits of other backgrounds mixed in.
Louisiana Creole is any person of any old world race or ancestry (Europe OR Africa OR Asia OR any combination of those) that was born in Louisiana (especially those of colonial Louisiana lineage), or any livestock animal born in Louisiana or any product, produce or cuisine that was grown or produced in Louisiana.
I am from DeQuincy. I think DeQuincyians use r's more. I have recently moved from La to Maine and the Yanks know I am a foreigner as soon as I open my mouth lol.
Not bothering me lol, but this link that you typed does not send me to anything Cajun related. It sends me to a music video called "The Narcycist"??
Y'all have a lot of terms in common with Northwest Louisiana. Gaaahhh - leee !
T'choo just not that accent, though
Rodriguez Helen Thompson Matthew Young Ruth
I think she's only referring to the cajun accent and not Louisiana in general. As I'm sure you know, north Louisiana accents are nothing like south Louisiana
I just did my own Australian accent tag! I've just started my new channel and i've love it if you could check it out :) xx
This is definitly one of my favorite accents so far!! Lol i love the Loussiana cajun accent so much!!
slidell st tammany parish... good video . For the Coke question i was surprised u didnt say Cold Drink lol all coke sprite or pepsi.... pass me a cold drink. lol
A Pop?? Your hubby is perpatratin' he's a Cajun!! Haha
Coincidence I find this video, exactly one year after its uploaded.
Might I ask where in "the west" is it that you speak "proper English" in?
