How come some NY natives don't have new York accents

[3rd Ward Swangin]

Because dumbass out of towners have this ignorant stereotypical concept of a New York accent. Not including the fact that people from different boroughs, backgrounds, ethnicities and educational backgrounds can cause the accent to vary. Depending on who your family or associations are, influences how we talk as well. There’s a lot that factors in. Queens is not going to sound like Brooklyn, Manhattan has a different dialect from The Bronx. Queens NY had the label of talking more “proper”. Staten Island is all those Italian/mafioso nasally accents from tv that people use as reference for whatever reason - think all of New York is like that bc they don’t live life off the computer. Black people don’t talk like Italians. Out of towners Watching a “hood vlog” and think we’re all on that “yo ayo dun” shyt - male and female.

The actors/actresses definitely use vocal coaches, dramatic training and receive training to adjust their accents altogether so that’s not a good example to use anyway. Why would you think entertainers are representative of people, duh- that’s a false comparison.

Oh the same way people think the south have thick ass accents and all speak the same way

 

[Baka's Weird Case]

i was born and raised in central texas and youd never guess it from my accent

Most black people in the Northeast don’t have an accent.

Not true at all

NY, Boston, Baltimore, and DC all have different accents.

No it fukking isn't. My older brother was born in Brooklyn and now lives in Philly for the past 9 years, that nikka sounds totally different now. You fukks sounds like you wanna be from Baltimore

This the real @DikDrizzle = Colton Cichoracki. (Disclaimer - public info that he posted himself about his background from various sources)

These frauding white boy Digiface cac racist role playing insta games in black convos online need to be outed, acting like he’s a “breh”

Dammit

I remember one of my OG called his wife's uncle that. (He's AA from here. And he was Jamaican and worked in nursing and was talking shyt.)

I don’t have accent, neither do any of the brehs I grew up with. But, Boston might be different than NY.

Let’s not go that extreme - we definitely have accents it’s just not as exaggerated as OTers from other regions make it seem

DC is like 30 mins from Baltimore on the BW Parkway but they talk/sound TOTALLY different from each other.

Fuk Boston.
Don’t even put Boston and New York in the same sentence.

nikka you have an accent and don’t know. You can’t compare how you talk to how other people you grew up with talk. Of course you’re going to sound the same. If you go to another city or region I guarantee they’ll say you have an accent and you’ll say they have an accent.

 

[Clay Puppington]

Some ppl in NY won't have an accent but will def pronounce certain wordss that give em away

Like "coffee" & "water"

 

[ThrobbingHood]

Example Eddie Murphy

Another example is Marlon Wayans he had a super thick new York accent in Mo money then it seemed as his career progressed he lost it

This is just a crazy theory but maybe… just maybe…. They don’t live in NYC anymore, causing their accents to become less pronounced?

 

[Grand Cru Boo]

Wata?

cawfee?

coola?

 

[Jermio]

This is true everywhere. People born and bred in Texas who sound exactly the same as people in Seattle, people from North Carolina who have no southern accent whatsoever, etc.

I have never heard anything positive coming out of Boston. You know your city is down bad when there are dedicated social media pages specifically for shytting on Boston.

No. I don’t think that. How about you actually direct that quote to whoever it needs to go to instead of misdirecting that to me.

Of course the fuk I don’t think that all the south talks that Way. But considering there’s more of y’all making and creating threads about New York than vice versa. I can’t even recall a New York poster creating threads trying to instigate with the south. Projected insecurities much?
