Emily, do you say woooter instead of waaahter? That's my biggest philly-ism

They pegged me for Philly right away, I guess it's pretty noticeable. Well, I have lived here all my life!

Nope, wahter. I think the reason they didn't peg me as a southerner is because I was taught by both my parents (who were well traveled, and my mother a trained actor) to enunciate, and the difference between "pen" and "pin" and "Ben" and "been", which a lot of southerners don't get. I guess the Philly thing came in because I say "Mary" and "merry" the same but "marry" slightly differently. I definitely don't sound like a Philly/south Jersey-ite, though, not in any way!

"You have a Midland accent" is just another way of saying "you don't have an accent." ..... You have a good voice for TV and radio." .... or customer service
