Okay, i just saw this in the canadian side and i wanted to see if Americans could pull it off too (not to copy our neighbors to the north). Lets see all of the american slang, regional if you must but state the region that you say it in. Oh yeah, any o in this part of mine is pronounced with an "ah" sound common around the Wisconsin, Minnesota, and Upper Michigan region.

This is for Wisconsin, Minnesota, and Upper Michigan

pertineer: dangerously close, it is from saying pretty near way too fast

goner (pronounced gahner): someone who is in deep trouble

Gosh Dern it: trying to express a status of dislike without blaspheming

Fib: A derrogatory term used for people who vacation in wisconsin from Illinois (F**king Illinois Bastard)

cheese head: a terrible derrogatory term for someone from Wisconsin, its pretty self explanitory

Youper: someone from the upper peninsula of Michigan, also used for a VERY thick Canadian accent comming from someone in America

Troll: Someone from the southern peninsula of Michigan

Da Mad Town: Madison in classic youper style

Fish-fry (pronounced feesh friee): a friday night ritual common almost nowhere else but Wisconsin. Basically, every friday people go to a restaurant and eat fish

Da Twin Cities (Da tween Cidiees): the Minneapolis Saint Paul area

'n so: no one really knows where the heck this one came from but people like to put it at the end of their sentences. such as: Oh yeah Olie, I did see them pakers 'n so, you?
(Oh ya Olee, Iy did see dem pakrs 'n so, you?)

The north woods (da nort woods): An area of thick trees and forests in northern Wisconsin and the upper peninsula of Michigan that is a common retreat for deer hunters

spos: a rough slurring of the word suppose. But it is used for at any time such as to say that they are finished talking or used to move a conversation to an ending


Thats all I have for now, ill get back to you after i listen to my friends for a while.
(Oh ya, Im dahn fer now, I tink ill git back ta my friends an pick up sahm more fer ya, kay?)

By the way, I moved to Wisconsin...I doubt they know how bad they really are.
