Drawl

Unrelated to the verb "to draw," a drawl (noun) is a characteristic of speech. It is produced by lengthening vowel sounds, and is most commonly heard in southern or western American dialects. Drawl can also be used as a verb: drawl, drawls, drawled, drawling.

Cowboys in movies always speak with a drawl. A lot of people think all southerners drawl, too.
