Have you ever been judged for having a different accent or dialect?

Some people are biased to how they are accustomed to hearing a language spoken and when they hear a difference in others they can come off as discriminating/ a tad bit racist

This usually happens with people who are bilingual more often then region wise dialects in that respect

Reminds me of this video I saw on youtube the other day

Perspective makes the difference in language and each person's character defines how the interaction can evolve and transition

I have been told I "talk funny" by one of my exes. She was from New Mexico. I just don't think she was used to Californian accents.

I am a native of Iowa. I moved to North Dakota in 1998, and I lived there for nineteen years. For the first few years, people would say, "You're not from around here, are you?" Or, "Where's your accent from?" Several people told me they thought I was from "The South." I had a few co-workers whom I "rubbed the wrong way" just because of my "accent." I have a typical Midwestern Nasal Twang.

Since I moved here people insist I have an accent. I guess not sounding like an ignorant hick is having an accent.

My accent is too posh for some of my acquaintances and too common for some of my more highbrow acquaintances

The southerners judge me hard tbh they aren't ready for my northerness

Oh, you mean you sound educated

Nah. I think I have a pretty standard accent.

When I went to college down South, I was teased a lot for having a “Yankee” accent. It was also during Jimmy Carter’s administration—the first time in awhile that a Deep Southerner had been in the White House. So the running joke was, “We don’t have accents anymore. [b]Y’all do[/b].” 😅

Yes, when I lived in Scotland, I had co workers joke about how I say things ,being that I'm American ...ya ken ?

I'm really lucky I don't have a strong Brummie accent or I'm sure I would be.
