My First Vlog!! Do I Have An Accent

My friend Aramelle posted on her blog a challenge she had seen among fellows bloggers to record yourself saying some words and answering question in order to demonstrate accents or lack therof.

I thought it sounded fun and I’ve been wanting to incorporate vlogs into the site so I jumped right in!

I think it would be fun if some of my readers jumped in and made their own videos! Here’s the info to participate.

The Words:
Aunt, route, wash, oil, theatre, iron, salmon, caramel, fire, water, sure, data, ruin, crayon, toilet, New Orleans, pecan, both, again, probably, spitting image, Alabama, lawyer, coupon, mayonnaise, syrup, pajamas, caught

And the Questions:
What is it called when you throw toilet paper on a house?
What is the bug that curls into a ball when you touch it?
What is the bubbly carbonated drink called?
What do you call gym shoes?
What do you say to address a group of people?
What do you call the kind of spider that has an oval-shaped body and extremely long legs?
What do you call your grandparents?
What do you call the wheeled contraption in which you carry groceries at the supermarket?
What do you call it when rain falls while the sun is shining?
What is the thing you use to change the TV channel?

Have fun with it and feel free to post your video here in the comments.
