Early summary of the Phildulphian Dialect

  1. Pretty amazing. You could do a whole video with people pronouncing "Tacony-Palmyra Bridge."

  2. Brilliant! I'm from St. Louis, MO and we have a surprisingly similar dialect in many ways. Well, not all of us... Somehow, all words with the letter o, are pronounced as an a. For example: forty is fardy. We have a highway 44, which often is said as fardy far. People eat with farks. My mother likes lots of pitchers on the wall and when I was little, she gave me crans to color with.
