@marcus200113: I get that I’m a northerner, but to me these kids sound veryyyy southern. This is from Thomas Dale HS in 1992 in Chester, VA. #virginia #southernaccent #linguistics
ngl nobody in Richmond / chesterfield 40 years or younger sounds like this anymore. they sound like they from a different time

Virginia has a slight twang, gets thicker the closer to the coast you get and it blends into a tidewater accent that I have

Will Herman :
Metro Richmond’s accent is arguably more Southern-sounding than the accents of all the regions that surround it, which tend to have stronger Mid-Atlantic or country influences depending on the direction.

Virginia accents remove the letter r from most words ... ex: car yard park bar etc.
