Well, that's a specific regional American accent, in the US called a Southern accent. Probably the only strong/widespread regional accent really left in the states (you could also argue for AAVE/ebonics but it's not regional in the same way).
It's a bit like saying that someone from rural Bavaria who speaks with a strong Bavarian accent has a heavy German accent while speaking German.
- WA 5y agoYes, but I'd bet that the Bavarian accent in particular is considered by foreigners as "heavy German". Bavarian culture (Oktoberfest) is considered "typical German".
- TulliusCicero 5y agoThat may be, but they'd be wrong.
