Audiobook narrator Matt Haynes gives five starter tips on the rural Mid West accent, then uses his favorite practice technique of applying accents to memorized song lyrics. This one will be done to Pink Floyd's "Wish You Were Here." NOTE: This video is solely for the purposes of entertainment and inspiration...and perhaps the promotion of MATT HAYNES: AUDIOBOOK NARRATOR! It is unrecommended and potentially dangerous to rely on this video as a singular means of claiming accent mastery, any cultural insights therein and any ability to convincingly "blend" like in the Mission Impossible movies. For any such goals, you should always consult your dialect coach and/or make friends with locals.

I love hearing my accent be broken down! The little cards of techniques helps a lot. The R sound is spot on. Regionally, more nasal "A's" to get Northeastern Ohio's accent, A's like "yeah."

dandelionveins My husband is from Cleveland and he swears that he can’t hear a difference in the Cleveland A, but it’s totally there.

@@latieplolo 🤣🤣🤣 yeah like, can you give an example because I'm from Cleveland too. And i simply cannot comprehend me having this inflection in my A's 😂

hi, from Northwest Ohio, Southeast Michigan here. I love these videos, and you can tell your accent is good in this one because you sound normal, like someone who is not from the city. It would be really interesting for you to do a Detroit or Toledo accent, it is pretty unique. It's a little bit like a combination between Ebonics Midwestern and a tiny tiny bit of Appalachian? Absolutely no Chicago to it, and it doesn't have that twang like Cincinnati does. Bonus points for picking a specifically Detroit music (Stooges!)

Throw me someone who has a really strong accent, that way and I'm on it.

Northeastern Hoosier here! Sounded great! Another thing I think is different is the use of "yah" instead of "you" and the smashing together of words. For instance, instead of "What are you doing?" it's pronounced, "Whaddaya doing?" Along those lines, we don't say the "tt" sound like in "Little (lih-tul)." Instead, it's "Liddle." I didn't realize some of the extreme differences in pronunciation until I dated a guy from Phoenix, Arizona. I dunno how different it is in other parts of the state, as I'm from a super small farming town.

I live in Turkey now and when people try to understand me when I'm talking to my husband in English. They ask why I swallow my words, and then i'm like "wudd are yuh talkin abou" ? 🤣

That is spot on for the main protagonist in my book! Born a Michigander so I am totally familiar with this accent.

@narratormatt 2 года назад

Fantastic. What's the book? Where can we find it?

@mrvince316 6 лет назад

George Thorogood is someone who has a really good Midwest accent, even though he is originally from Delaware. Listen to one of his interviews, I think it's dead on.

Me, being from Michigan, practicing like I don't have a midwestern accent.

@narratormatt 2 года назад

Curious... do you find there's overlap between Michigan and Minnesota?

@francocortez3506 2 года назад

@@narratormatt I find that Minnesota has a much stronger nasal sound to their accent than Michigan, but that changes when you start going more North in Michigan (closer to Canada). Where I'm from, I sound nothing like people from Minnesota.

@narratormatt 2 года назад

@@francocortez3506 I can hear that. I think of Michigan as being located in the lower molars while Minnesota is closer to the lower lip.

@Brettwbeyer14 8 лет назад

this sounds more like western than Midwestern to me.

@jeffloose4669 4 года назад

Are you from the Midwest? The real accents sound exactly this. Go anywhere in Ohio that isn't a city, and this is pretty spot-on. I am curious now if people from the rural Midwest sound Western to everyone else

@ayyyizme 3 года назад

@@jeffloose4669 In my experience, and idk where Brettwbeyer14 is from, people from Chicago and north misrepresent what a Midwest accent is because ours is distinctly different even though we're considered Midwest as well. The rest of the Midwest is much like this video dialectally.

Everyone from New York thinks that everybody from Pennsylvania and West onwards, all sound like people from Texas. I stumbled across this video because I lived a lifetime in New York and now I have been in Colorado for five years and I want people to be able to understand what I'm saying without my boyfriend having to translate. I hate my accent!
