Bay Area Accent
One of the less known-about American accents, can be heard throughout the bay depending on which area you're in. However, its beginning to fade as more and more people move in from other places.
Some notable differences:
- Slurring words or sounds together, "Sanrancisco"
- Dropping Ts, Santa Monica is "Sannamonica" and Santa Cruz is "Sannacruz"
- Replacing the "t" or "th" sounds with "d", so "these" is "deeze" and "those" is "dose"
- A weird "r" sound. I can't explain it
- Either super fast or super slow
- Throwing in a lot of bay area slang, "hella", "tryna", "slaps" "cop"
- Dropping whole words, "Whayya mean?" = "What do you mean?"
Listen to how these people talk, they have Bay Area Accents: YBN Nahmir ("listen to Rubbin' off the Paint", he picked up his accent from friends in Cali over GTA), Daveed Diggs, SOB x RBE (listen to "Anti")
