Continuing My Language Immersion


Today i overheard my first example of the correct usage of the inverse interrogative doubleplural, as in: "Why all y'all didn' weld that right?" In other observations, i have noted that the accent is difficult to perfect, requiring the speaker to relax every facial muscle possible and at the same time speak very quickly at a somewhat higher volume than might otherwise seem reasonable. I must practice with diligence.
