User ImageI just finished completing the Regional Dialect Meme. What is it, you ask? Basically a bunch of people hop on their webcams and mics, say the same set of words, answer the same set of questions, and a bunch of other people do the same. This allows people to see how their regional dialect differs from the rest of the world.

So I thought "Hey, what more diverse group of people is there than the SG?" So now that I've done the challenge, I'm taking it to you guys. Pronounce the set of words, answer the questions, and show the world your regional dialect. Don't forget to tell everyone what part of the world you're from, also. smile


User Image
Here's the list
Pronounce these words: Aunt, Route, Wash, Oil, Theater, Iron, Salmon, Caramel, Fire, Water, Sure, Data, Ruin, Crayon, Toilet, New Orleans, Pecan, Both, Again, Probably, Spitting image, Alabama, Lawyer, Coupon, Mayonnaise, Syrup, Pajamas, Caught

And answer these questions:
What is it called when you throw toilet paper on a house?
What is the bug that when you touch it, it curls into a ball?
What is the bubbly carbonated drink called?
What do you call gym shoes?
What do you say to address a group of people?
What do you call the kind of spider that has an oval-shaped body and extremely long legs?
What do you call your grandparents?
What do you call the wheeled contraption in which you carry groceries at the supermarket?
What do you call it when rain falls while the sun is shining?
What is the thing you change the TV channel with?

And here's my video if anyone's interested! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PvrLpnfDTV4 (literally posted it to youtube less than 5 minutes from when I'm posting this thread, so some of you eager beavers might have to wait a bit before it'll load for you.)

Heehee, even though we're both from Canada we pronounce things so differently. Should have added roof and couch to the meme though, because people say them and call them differently too. xD >_> I may or may not get around to posting a vidjya whosamawhatsit if and when I get a youtube account and get a hold of my brother's rockband mic since the headset I have isn't compatible.

Well, I thought I'd be the first man to stand up to the challenge and recorded this.

Note, it is just a recording, no video, since I've lost my camera's charger.

I DONT KNOW WHY but for the longest time I thought trainers meant underwear, and whenever they talked about their trainers in Harry Potter I was like wtf?? XD

I can't right now cause my computer is broke, but I PROMISE it'll find its way onto the computer contraption that houses videos of people. Sadly, my computer doesn't even have sound right now it's so broken so I'll also be watching y'all soon. CREEPER AWAY!
