[quote=Anonymous]I actually did some research on this topic during my quarantine boredom. Digging through the newspaper archives there wasn't much but what I did find made the "DC accent" seem more in-line with the Maryland accent than the Virginia accent. I remember one article from the 80s that pointed out how MoCo kids pronounced the "O" in "O Holy Night" with the Maryland "Ooooew." This video is how all my family (white from Northern Virginia) talks: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JIKxmlKgQZU[/quote]
