[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There is definitely a Northern Virginia accent out there, for Gen Xers and younger. Dave Grohl has it, Vivien Azer of CNBC has it, probably a lot of your kids have it. It's sort of like a very quickly spoken southern accent with a nasal twang and slight vocal fry and people say things like "tuh" for "to." the "Warshington" northern virginia accent is for older folks.[/quote] Yeah, I think of the "Warshington" NoVA accent as being specific to areas where people have lived generationally and used to be considered further out, like Herndon, Dranesville, Dumfries, Goose Creek, etc. It has a lot of the same characteristics of the Maryland/Murland accent.
