STL? Take
my quiz to see which you are!
Goal of the Study
We are talking to people about how Americans communicate with each
other. People across the country are talking to each other more and
more, and at the same time we know that local accents are getting
more different, in spite of the fact that we all watch the same TV
programs. We want to find out how people talk in each region of the
country and whether local ways of talking are changing in any
way. Examples
of some questions asked, although they wouldn't necessarily be
asked by each interviewer.
How to Participate
Are you from the area along I-55 between Chicago and St. Louis?
Then add telsur.friedman as a skype contact or
email telsur.friedman@gmail.com.
If you're not from the area, please forward this page or this email onto people who
are from the area. A conversation would be very short and not
intrusive. We encourage people to only answer questions they feel
comfortable with and no names will be used. Thanks for helping out!
