[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My born-and-raised DC kids, now grown, say "I'm onna" or "I munna" in stead of "I'm going to", as well as "all-most" and "ohmost", each kid differently, for almost. We're white.[/quote]

im not alone! :)  lol[/quote]

You guys aren't lol[/quote]

My white, DC- raised kids do this too. The "I munna" drives me insane lol. I've never thought of it as DC thing, but maybe it is. [/quote]

My husband and kids are both born and raised here and I have never heard any of them utter anything like that. I've been here 25 years and I don't either. My daugther claims I say something that sounds like "Dudn it" instead of "doesn't it." With that said, I just took that quiz and it didn't come close to pinning down where I was raised, other places I have lived, or the influence of where my parents grew up. Born and raised outside Philadelphia, parents from Central PA, and that quiz said I was from Rochester or Grand Rapids. Never been to either. [/quote]
