ALL my family speaks like this and I still do a little bit too. And I do it naturally because I was raised by them I will not change to please outsiders and It’s not so much something to be proud of for our families to speak with these accents, but it’s part of our past and our ways of life which we treasured and know for sure now they were a more wholesome way of family living than comparison to how people in the north live. I would rather have my family and strong will , morals, and happiness and peace in the valleys and mountains of the south than to live in the north lacking all of these things The language is only a dear reminder of our past and present. It represents our families that are loved and remembered and the land we love. So it’s not that we’re proud of the language dialects itself, but of the memories it holds for us. So,if you’re not one of us you don’t have to care about it nor pay honor. Just simply stay away if you detest it
My Mom did the worshin. She used worsh rags to worsh her face. She arned our bed clothes. She'd say "hit don't matter no way"... "Ya ought notta been doin that".,."I went upair"...."j'eet yet?" "Yon't me to carry yuns to the store to trade?" I used to try and not talk like my Mom until I realized as I got older that my kids were losing my family's accent. Now, I just let it be what it is. My parents were born and raised in Harlan Kentucky. They had me and my brothers and sisters in East Tennessee. I'm from Townsend. I'm Appalachian...and I don't care to show it through my speech.
We talk very much the same. I'm from middle Tennessee and we say yall were you would say yens. I am not from Appalachia but I sure do Love the people that I have met over there and I love to visit the mountains!
These people are very intelligent. Just because someone might miss speak a word doesn't mean there dumb if you think that than it probably means your dumb.
That speech is alive and well in me My mothers family came from Wigton Scotland My fathers family came from Annandale Scotland I'm from east Tennessee I dont say warsh cloth tho Lol
I'm from middle Tennessee and I do say warsh cloth. That's just the way we talk. My Mom's father was a Bryant and he used tell me his family came from Scotts Irish descent. He talked a lot like these people. He'd say "my cousin come over and hoped me get up hay the other day" . He had that singing kind of rythm to his speech also. He was a farmer almost all his life. I wanted to be just like him when I was young. He lived a good life on the farm.
My mothers family background same They were all descendants from the mountains Tennessee and all them said warsh rag. And open that winder instead of window And would say “set down in this cheer” instead of saying chair. And there’s fo much more 😆
If you hear a lot of English or British people say the name Lola. They sometimes pronounce it “Loler”. Adding an unnecessary R to it. We come from British and Irish. And the people in the Appalachian deep mountains mainly come from Irish which has an even harder to understand way of English. I’m a southerner with Irish and British family background
If you want to hear a bit of dialect, go up to New Jersey and listen around a bit. I don't think they (and a lot of others) have a lot of room to talk. I'm Appalachian and proud of it!

Your so right. I’ve heard Irish and British or English people speak so much and I knew that’s where we came from. We even have the same last names like my family name for example is Blackwell. I traced it and found some in Liverpool England. My mothers family name was Thomas. I found it common in Ireland
Hant never gonna change me! That’s for damn shore!!!! I love my accent an I hate this damn auto correct bullshit on nese phones!!!! Praise God and pass the ammunition 🥰🙌🏼❤️✝️

I spent life in Hawkins county TN, this really make me miss hit. 😎
My mom was born and raised in Thornhill...the mountain talk is still spoken here. Mom said "hoped" instead of helped.
Same here from Tennessee
great job, love to see our history come to life

I love to hear Wiley Oakley and Ray Hicks talk. Reminds me of the way my momma and daddy talked.

My family talks exactly like that
Yeah that’s me. I won’t change the way I was raised talking and try to speak in a different way just to please somebody
Kelly, you write Appalachian pretty good!
@@clarencegreen3071 lol well I’ve lived all my life, almost 60 years in the Smokies of East Tennessee. I can’t help it.
Ive lived in east tn all my life and you can sure tell it when i talk.
I love the way they talk.
Here in the flatwoods of Tennessee the words Hope and Hit is still used, most the older folks.
Yep my family talks the same way The older ones
Not sure how my grandma picked it up because she was born and raised in Idaho but she says "warshed". I find it so endearing! 😊
Names ending in 'a' often had an 'r' added at the end. My Aunt Delma was Delmer, and Aunt Ila was Iler, and Aunt Eula was Euler.
Yep same here. My aunt Lola, her husband called her Loler. They do the exact same thing in England
@@200x-v4k Many of my descendents came from England. No telling how far back that usage goes.
These people are very intelligent. Just because someone might miss speak a word doesn't mean there dumb if you think that than it probably means your dumb.
I reckon maybe I should hava given him the Tuther one to. But since I had strong liking to hit I helt onto it.
That speech is alive and well in me
My mothers family came from Wigton Scotland
My fathers family came from Annandale Scotland
I'm from east Tennessee
I dont say warsh cloth tho
Lol

So very proud of you all. Here's a trophy for saying "Warshed"

A lot of similarities to rural Suffolk and Norfolk in England. British melting pot over there in Appalachia, please don't lose your culture.
