So, what is a Dialect Vlog Hop? It is where you record yourself in a video saying a list of words, and then read some questions and answer them. The idea behind it is to see how people from different parts of the country or the world, say the same words differently. Annie from Mamma Dweeb is hosting this vlog hop.

The Words:
why, outside, chic, boutique, February, Right of way, Porsche, Behind, Tomorrow, Bye, Organization
The Questions:
Pin & Pen – do you same them the same or different?
What do you call a place you go that serves mainly alcoholic beverages?
What is the grey tape that can fix any broken object?
What do you call someone that isn’t “cool”?
A phrase your grandparents always said?
What do you call a girl that acts silly and unintelligent?
Slow as ______
Quick as _________
Happy as a ________
