Look over the lecture on Language Dialects (posted in Canvas) and watch the videos Mapping American Dialects and CBS Dialects (which we watched in class on Friday April 14th). Keeping in mind that dialects vary by place, in other words people can speak the same language differently in different places/regions, identify some words that reflect the dialect of the place where you grew up or of a place that has had a significant impact on your life.
