I have the classic story about a South Philly accent. Years ago, I lived in Philly and hung out in Rittenhouse Square with the hippies. I met a girl from Sout' Philly, and I asked her what her name was. She answered "Dally." I said, "You mean like Salvadore Dali?" She said, "No, like 'Hello, Dally, well hello, Dally, it's so nice to have you back where you belong.'"
