Older New Englanders would add R sounds on words that didn't have it, Like chiner for china or SaRar for Sarah, that's really faded. I notice few younger people used the old slang or have the accent. I'm a gen X-er & am proud of my Boston accent.

It should be federally mandated to preserve regional and local accents.

Fuck Americanisms. New England accents should be promoted.

You go heavy on the "no r" thing, which ironically is not an accent feature so much as the absence of a feature which is present in accents of people from elsewhere in America. 2:54 I wonder if what they found so difficult was suppressing their own accent.

True North Beard Co has a wild Boston accent ☘️

In NY you don't just drop the R but you also can add it. ``They sell pizzar and sodar for three dollahs."

I literally just bought coffee syrup for my Floridian grandkids to try. We drank this as kids on the south shore in MA. My hometown is exactly half way between Boston & Providence. I miss New England!

LA? Puke

Hello Matt, I was curious if you knew the name of the cottage that is also a part of the hospital campus. I believe it was near the medical director's house. It is a single cottage, 2 floors, small porch and amazing view of Lake Chauncy, I have a lot of pictures it that I uploaded into a video so I could clear up some of my memory on various devices. I used to know the name, the pictures on my channel were taken around 2016. Do you remember? I think it was used as the last step toward "home" and out of "rehab." Anyway, Great video, that property has always fascinated me, I was never a rebel and broke in, but I have done a lot of reading and research and the concept of its inception is amazing to me.

There was a gangsters series Roy Donovan, I noticed Boston accent there 🙂.

What a great job on this video except for the annoying, Extremely Loud click track. To me it ruins it. Why would you make it so loud? It's louder than the commentary

It's sad to hear that the Boston accent is disappearing. At least, I hope it outlives the Bronx and Brooklyn accents.

Accents shouldnt be allowed to die out any more than endangered species should. They are to speech what species are to biology. Anyway, ive noticed that Bostonians really cling to “wicked” as the word that best says “im from Boston”. So even after the accent disappears overall, i believe “wicked” will remain. I can switch back into the accent having grown up there. Periodically, ill recite a famous line from “good will hunting” to stay in shape. In the harvard bar scene, matt damon says “ in 50 yeahs youre gonna staht doin’ some thinking on your own….” and then he says the word “certainty” Now, Ill bet no Hollywood actor can say that word properly, even if they get the rest of the accent mostly right. In Bostonese its pronouced “sooertainty”. Course it wont matter anymore if what you say is correct about the accent disappearing. The saddest thing may be that we’ll no longer get to laugh at actors when they butcher it (which often sounds like some weird british-ized varient)

My direct ancestors, Josiah and Abiah(Folger) Franklin, are interred there. I descend from their eldest child, and son, John.

The no Rs come from our Irish : English Scottish history

We don’t call it Bahston we call it bOston

Accents use to change from one end of the village to the next here in Ireland. Now all the kids run around with fake TV-american accents. Nauseating!!!!!!

Everyone has an accent.

I worked there. Did you take a video of the tunnels that connected the old buildings? That is awesome. Or the shoe store below the ad building? It was an underground city. Im still sorry to see it go.

We will always have P B D.

dont forget the ings we dont say driving we say drivin never pronounce yhe ings

It depends if you want to be comfortable, or if you want to be a part of the social discourse. Now more than ever X is filled with heated discourse because people form both sides of the isle are being heard. There's no "good old days" of a social network, just some smaller social networks filled people people more fitting of a few demographics or interests. For a lack of better term, those are echo chambers that gives everyone the warm and fuzzies, but ultimately won't serve the global community. It is through dealing with the harshness of everyone we don't agree with that we get to grow, and the other way around.

Thanks for creating yea twitter now called X is becoming a very toxic place to hangout a lot of propaganda Elon cult

Not from MSDNC or the China News Network. Epoch Times, Fox Business, and The Daily Wire, are all trust worthy sources. OIL and energy drive prices. HomObama and Bidumb went to war with the Energy sector and prices stayed well above $90 a barrel. President Trump fixed that, and he will again. When oil gets back to $65 a barrel , life will improve for everyone.

Good luck with that echo chamber of hate and severe TDS. Seek help. Trump 2024 is your daddy. You don't like real, free, speech. Somalia would love to have you.

The dropped R is not unique to Boston or New England and I have no issue with it dying out. For me, the drawn out "o" is the true centerpiece. "Sock" sounds like "sawk". Indelible.

Lake Chauncy! The entire grounds have been one of my most favorite places on earth due to the significant history, I have not visited in about 8 years or so, since the community was built. Thanks for the walk, chat and the information about Blue Sky.

Great video!

I prefer the Mr. HOWELL BOSTON ACCENT! I'M FROM THE BRONX AND LIVE in MASSACHUSETTS. YOU Should See HOW PEOPLE LOOK AT ME WHEN I TAWK.

Inflation is not as bad but the prices did not come down nor did wages grow to meet inflation. If you own assets, you are doing OK, but if you are looking to buy a house or most of your income comes your wages, especially non professional wages, you are in a historically bad spot. Wages lag behind inflation and production, housing stock is at historical lows while prices remain high even with rates cranked. It could get a lot better and still be materially bad for working class americans. There is a long way to go and middle class austerity has done a lot of damage in the past 30 years and the candidates are either not addressing the issue or giving it lip service while serving asset heavy donors.

I grew up in Boston and I took it as a point of pride to not have a Boston accent. It may be wicked to have a Boston accent in Boston but not in the rest of the world.

THIS IS AMAZINGGGGGG

The production value here is genius.

The accent is overly accentuated in Hollywood movies.

It's sad. Im from North of Boston and me and all my friends had an accent but now in the same town, my daughter and her friends make fun of the accent. No more culture.

I LOVE regional accents. What herbs and spices are to food the accents are to speech! I'm originally from NYC and left long ago but you hardly ever hear a NY accent anymore. I know that New York and Boston are supposed to hate each other. I don't and I love the Boston accent. Don't lose it fellahs.

As a New Hampshirite I find the accent is heavier for older generations but us Gen Z it’s like almost completely gone but we can all imitate it perfectly.

I don't understand why people have to continually screw up the Boston language. Matt, what's wrong with you? If Boston were spelled B-A-R-S-T-O-N, then you'd pronounce it, 'Bahston'. For Pete's sake, people from Boston say it like everyone else, 'Bawston'. I was born there (1949), grew up there, so I know what I'm talking about. Why don't you grow up, Matt?

My husband works in Boston. Whenever we travel, people always say "Boston right" 😅

While boston is losing a lot including the accent, just go to the more low income areas and its going strong. RI (just south of beantown) has the most insane accent like boston turned to 11. Worcester has its own take on the accent also

I first heard about this a year or two ago in a lecture by an engineering professor. He said the tank was constructed hastily and engineers were not consulted to design it. Initially the molasses was used to manufacture ethanol, which was in high demand due to World War 1. (Ethanol is used to manufacture munitions.) When the war ended the demand for ethanol dropped drastically so the company looked for another product to manufacture. As you suggested they decided on alcohol because Prohibition was scheduled to start in one year so they figured there would be a high demand for alcohol until then. They received a large shipment of molasses by ship in January 1919, filling the tank. Three days later it burst from the pressure. The engineering professor said a buildup of gas released by the molasses may have contributed to the rupture (the pressure inside the tank would increase with the buildup of the gas). The company initially tried to blame the tank's rupture on a anarchist bombing as you noted (the engineering professor said there was anarchist activity in Boston at the time) but it was obvious upon examination of the tank it burst simply because it was not properly designed to handle the loads it would be subjected to.

feckin luv my dad's wicket accen ❤

True, but also sounds kinda retaded too. 😂

Holy-smoke, what a wonderful video.

Boston and it's accent are not going anywhere. This is silly.
