When I say "singing" I have a hard G. I sing, you sing, he is singing.

but that's wrong. I'ts not sing-ga, or sing-ging. The G is not a second syllable, just like when you day fishing, you don't pronounce it fishing-ga!

Southern black folks seem to rearrange all kinds of words like axe. I call it lazy mouth!

Pronuncation isnt a big concern around here but two I hate are; "Statchyatory" and "Statue of limitations".

For some reason, words with the letter "R" seem to be difficult for many.

Sometimes they add it: Warsh the car.
Sometimes they delete it: I'd like a glass of watuh.

I'm living in Kentucky these days. I would reply but I really don't feel like dedicating a week to typing them all.

....when I was trucking through there, I really thought sometimes they were speaking another language. I felt like the dog that twists it's head to see if he heard that correctly!

and then there's Alabama....OMG! Sometimes I'd get directions from old guys and just listen and smile, say thanks, and leave....not having a clue what he just said!
