Haha. It’s okay. What I have found writing my own, you just write, and then you go back change it. Leave it a few days, correct again etc. I think your initial goal is put first draft together. And that draft will change greatly but it’s a beginning 🙂
Madison in Southern Wisconsin, currently. The real “nasal” happens “up north” toward the UP of Michigan and westward to the Dakotas. My oldest son was born in Texas, so I also have a bit of experience with the “thick” drawl. It took me a year to learn that “y’all” meant one person and “all-o-y’all” meant the group. Each time someone said “y’all”, I would look behind me to see who had joined me. There was never anyone there!
I have only visited Maine once; my recollection is a softer version of the Boston accent. There is a lot of tourism in Maine, and I would imagine you could find YouTube videos and such of people in that area speaking.
Hope you post a list of words to describe someone dressed well and not so well. Was wracking my brain trying to find a word to describe a well dressed man other than well dressed.
Thank you. I like this post. It will help me better describe my voice. Mine is very flat. I checked with a metronome ten years ago, and there is basically no inflection to it or anything.
I didn’t see one of my favourite descriptive voice words – powdery. I’ve used it to describe soft, dry, low men’s voices. “George’s voice was so powdery that I had to strain to follow what he was saying.”
My – there’s a lot of words.

“Nasal” – particularly meaningful if you have ever spent time in the Midwestern US! Loved these.

Are you there? What about “arrayed in sth” or “debonair”? The latter is old fashioned.
