here in maryland i find many people put R's in certain words, like "wash" becomes "warsh" and "water" becomes "warter", i used to add the r's but ive been trianing myself not to lately, is this just in maryland or do YOU put r's in words to?
and how about the word "either", do you say "eye-ther" or "ee-ther"?
i say eether i dont hear many people pronounce it "eye-ther". oh good the pizza's here.

My dad would say "erl" instead of "oil," "terlet" instead of "toilet." Drove me NUTS!
My boss says "aks" instead of "ask." We're editors, for God's sake!
My husband is from B'more so I was coached on the "proper" way of saying "Maryland." It's not "Mare-ee-land", it's Mare-land." It drives him nuts when I say he's a Mary 'cuz he's from Maryland.

I say ee-ther, but eye-ther sounds right also.
Black folks say "aks" a lot (yeah, yeah "white people are so scared...")
And there's not much worse than retards who get disorientated. That is, they are not properly orientated.
For great example, watch a lot of Brandon Lee, esp in The Crow. That is an exercise in PERFECT PRONUNCIATION and ENUNCIATION. Or just listen to Anthony on O & A, or Tom Leykis.

Go tell it to your girlfriend. Oh, that's right, you don't have one.

Well, southern talk is very funny. Instead of saying cement (sament) they say cee-ment. They also mess up the word insurance and say IN-surance with the stress in the beginning of the word. You'd think ya'll is a plural word right? No, they make that plural "all ya'll". How dumb is that! I still say "you guys". They also call every kind of soda Coke. If you say you want a Coke they ask what kind...I think I'm in Bazzaro World down here!

Do you ever hear the phrase "fixin' to" such as "I'm fixin' to go to the store?"

That was just a cheap shot, just because I don't have a girlfriend. Couldn't come up with anything better eh?
