This lesson on the Southern drawl breaks down vowel and consonant substitutions, then applies them to a text.

The Long O becomes uh-O
associated, don’t, gold, okra, overtones

Bite the Hard R
born, fork, parts, spear, sour, submerge

The Long I opens up
Carolinas, delightful, kaleidoscope, ivory

You don’t have to be born in the Carolinas to relish the delightful bouquet of smells associated with down-home cooking.

The scents deliver themselves over a kaleidoscope of frequencies of butter. Buttered greens. Battered and fried shrimp. Filets layered in decadent cream,  melted ivory speckled with basted okra and a rainbow of peppers.

Sweet potatoes wrapped in foil, the pleasantly acrid overtones of sour cream tickling the sensitive parts of your hunger.

On the almost comic side, you catch the dancing whiff of a chilled lemon slice.

Last but not least, what is possibly the greatest culinary blessing—a boiled ceramic cup of clarified dipping butter, the aroma of which promises an endless parade of delicious combinations, the opportunity to spear everything on your plate with a cocktail fork and submerge it in a mini-vat of liquid gold.
