New York Accent

A New York accent, or New York dialect, is one of the more recognizable American accents. It refers to the greater New York metropolitan area (including the 5 boroughs, Long Island, Westchester County, the lower Hudson Valley & surrounding parts of Connecticut & New Jersey). Upstate New Yorkers have their own accents which are entirely different from the stereotypical "New York" accent.

Individuals with a trained ear can differentiate between the accents of each of the boroughs (or the surrounding areas), though all are very similar. Generally, Manhattanites do not have a common accent, as many do not originate from the New York metropolitan area.

A slightly lesser percentage of Generation Y-ers speak with a full-blown New York accent, compared with those of prior generations. The accent of Generation Y-ers tends to be less severe than those of their elders, sometimes practically undetectable, with the exception of certain words.

Notable differences between Standard American English & New York dialect include:

1. Nonstandard pronunciation:
♦ "AW" sound is prolonged (talk/tawwk)
♦ Hard "G" sound (Long Island/Lawnguyland)
♦ Dropping final consonants (want/wan)
♦ Dropping "R" sounds (morning/mawning)
♦ Adding "R" sounds (idea/idear, soda/soder)
♦ Dropping "G" endings (calling/callin)
♦ Substituting "D", "T" for "TH" (those/doze, three/tree)

2. Nonstandard resonance, resulting in a heavy sound.

3. Generally fast rate of speech.

4. Hypernasality.

"I need to tawwk to my friend from Lawnguyland to axe what soder she wants to serve with the vawdka at the parwty tomawrow."

"Wow, that woman has quite the New York accent."

social acceptance

Social acceptance is the fact that most people, in order to fit in with the others, look and act like them. It stops (mostly) everyone from truly being themselves. It's is also the reason most people look painfully average. See conformist.

Social acceptance destroyed the world.

Bristol County Accent

The 'pre-daaah-mi-NENT' accent in Bristol County Massachusetts, especially stroo-ung in Fall River, Swansea, and, to a lesser degree, in Taunton, Norton, and Attleboro.

A bastard child of Tom Menino's Boston accent and Fran Drescher's Queens (New York City) accent.

To those from other parts of Massachusetts, the Bristol County accent is often mistaken for a Providence Rhode Island accent, with which it is somewhat similar, or even a New York/New Jersey accent.

New Yorkers have been said to mistake Bristol County speakers as being native Long Islanders who have spent most of their adult lives in white, inner-city Boston or 'pahts' of Maine.

My name's Joe Raaaahbinson. I was baaahn and raised in Foe Rivuh (Fall River) but have lived in Daaahchista (Dorchester Boston) fa ovuh faaaahty yeeiz.

accepts in port 80

A male homosexual, one that craves to be on the receptive side of anal intercourse. May also apply to a heterosexual that likes to be penetrated by a strap on.

This phrase seems to originate from Hebrew where it appears as "eats in port 80", a euphemism of "eats in the ass" (80 being the common port number for HTTP requests).

Another (rarer) variant is "accepts in port 8080" (being the HTTP Alternate port as well as the port used by the infamous vulnerability in the Netscape implementation of JVM known as Brown Orifice).

Compare port (definition 4)

So what are you telling me here, that you accept in port 80?

Dude, just because someone likes to wear dresses you can't automatically assume he accepts in port 80.

North Jersey Accent

First off, NO ONE says JOISEY or anything with an "oi". Most jersey people, at least where i live (North Jersey), talk like New Yorkers. We tend to put aw or au in everything.

(This doesn't mean that EVERY jersey resident speaks like this)

Me: I wawk and i tawk like i live in new york(or pronounced Yowk, depending which part of jersey yer from) and i drink lots a wawta (water) and cawfee.

*Yep, JURZEE's very unique

THIS is the most common North Jersey accent
