I was talking to someone this week about the words that give my (chicago/mn)accent away. After four and a half years the words I still can't say are:Hot Dog
Wisconsin
Costume
Don't
pants
Different variations will fall out of my mouth, especially when tired or after a steady night of drinking.
Also, like most Chicagoans I do still use unnecessary propositions:
Can I come with?
Where are you going to?
Where did you get that from?
Do you think that the "eliminate your accent" signs all over LA are meant for me?
