ThomasE, I know you are from Tampa. FL. How do they talk in
Hillsborough and Pinellas Counties, Florida? Just curious.

ThomasE · 03-07-2002, 09:27 PM

To me, it seems that others talk in a regular normal voice. Now for people who are not from the area, they continue to speak with the accents they were born with. I haven't lived in NYC for a while and I still have my accent on the occastion. Send me an e-mail and we'll continue to talk from there.

What I meant was what is the general type of accent of natives
of the Tampa-St. Petersburg area?

To me the natives would have a little southern drawl. Just slightly.

Maybe I'm confused, but does this have anything to do with FOL??

It would if I bring up the subject of Jo's NY accent.

lol.

Actually we do have people that talk just like Jo when she first arrived on the scene. If you have any more questions, just send me a private message.
