[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The accent isn't Midwest per se, it's a northern, boarding Canada thing - Wisconsin, Minnesota, North Dakota.

+1 I would not call this a mid western accent. I've lived in both Ann Arbor, Michigan and Dayton, Ohio and no one sounded like that. [/quote]

I have family from Dayton and you are right, they do not speak like this.  Neither do many from Ann Arbor, b/c I have family from there too.  Maybe b/c there are folks from all over who live in Ann Arbor?  I don't know.  And my brother-in-law from Dayton doesn't speak like this either, I admit.

BUT, they DO speak like this in Wisconsin (have college friends from there), some parts of Illinois (again, college folks), some parts of Indiana (in-laws, and college friends).  I do not know where or how they get it, but they *do* speak like this.  And so does my MIL from Indiana.  Can you tell I went to college in the Midwest and married someone from the Midwest?  Luckily, we live here now. :)  (And I am not from there either.) :)[/quote]
