I'm Mexican American and I love the mountain people. I have a lot of friends from the mountains and I love them they're the most sincere and honest people I ever met. GOD BLESSED EVERYONE OF THEM. UNITED WE STAND DIVIDED WE WILL FALL.
Thank you Christian for sharing your comment (on Tony Glenn’s video) and this video. We have rural areas in Connecticut that have a similar vibe. I love NC and can’t wait to visit and embrace all that comes with it! Sending love from a country girl in the north. ❤️😊
... including Kentucky, the best public schools teachers came out of this area. They are all gone now. Public education sure could use their influence now.
My dad ate squirrel stew and didn't know until after he was done. My dad's had ruled his stomach and if he had known he wouldn't have touched it! LOL I went to nursing school with a woman who shot squirrels regularly to eat and feed her family. 90% of Maine is Forest so you've got a lot of people shooting small animals to eat and then going to University in the morning.
My grandmother used to say grimy yowens. This is from Maine. Figure out what it means it's not hard. But they used to talk you could barely understand them if you weren't from here.
I live in Portland Maine and traveled the world living in many countries but before I did that we talked the same way we use the same words like peckerwood and plum and Jasper and all of this. I haven't heard of Saigon but we talk much the same way because we all came from Scotland and England Ireland my dad came from Scotland with his family
I’m from the southeastern Appalachian mountain of Hazard Ky . I’m a southern woman with a deep southern dialect. People may mistake my dialect for ignorance and I have to laugh at them because their very surprised when I tell them I have a Maters degree of education. Most southern people are survivors and very intelligent. Best people in the world the southern hospitality is just awesome. Here is where I wanted my children to be brought up and taught the Appalachian culture!
My mommas people were mountain people. I've never been there but I hear I'm like them, and they were very talented people who raised gardens and play any musical instrument.
There must be some Irish Scottish connection as growing up in outback NSW these are common words and contexts but pronunciations bit different so I guess from convict days carryover as large portion were Irish Scottish including free settlers
I grew up in jersey but my family is from Augusta Georgia and my whole family talked with a sourhern twang.. i miss those days now we don't have time for eachother and the only time we see eachother is at funerals
You folks are my kind of people, I am from The Moutain State West Virginia and I hear a lot of folks around my area talk somewhat like you guys and I love it. I am just a simple God-fearing country girl from the hills of West Virginia, I was born that way and I will die that way. We have been called hillbillies rednecks ridge runners and I do not let those things bother me I am what Father God made me to be and that's just fine by me. Outsiders will never understand Mountain Folks.
I’m a mountain man from the hills of western NC. You are right. We are proud of our heritage and take all those so called “insults” as badges of honor. We will survive when others perish because we are independent and resourceful. Much love to you and yours.
