I was the same way when I moved from California to Maryland. I said like all the time. Simply by just being in a different environment I subconsciously started to drift away from saying like all the time and find myself saying yall.

Not too much of an upgrade.

"Wicked" is wicked common up here. Same with "Bub", "Dear (deah)" and not pronouncing r's.

Try thinking before speaking. People usually say "like" as a filler when they can't think of what word to use. You should drop the habit as soon as possible simply because when you work in a professional setting, it makes you look immature and fails to communicate effectively.

Ya, I say it a lot too but I'm not as bad as some of the people up here. We also hella say hella and socal doesn't cuz they're ghey. You'll reduce it as long as you try and notice it

jeez this thread reminded me....
in an interview i was once asked what i thought about some new feature or whatever, i don't remember the details; it was a long time ago
anyway i answered "oh yeah, s'like hella cool" **awkward pause when i realized what i said** "but i mean there are many ways to improve, blah blah blah"

either way i'm pretty sure that's why i didn't get that job (not that i really wanted it but still)
ever since then i've banished hella from my vocab. still working on banishing 'like' though, it's pretty hard to get rid of

actually i'm trying to get rid of "i'ma" too.. like "i'ma go to the store, be right back"
i dont even know how the hell it makes any sense at all, my friend got me into saying that :s

Just pretend you care about the people who are listening to you and that you don't want to bore/waste their time with useless filler sounds like "uhhh" "like" "HHAAAWWWWWWWFFFFF" (or whatever sound it is Koreans make

it's fine to talk however you want in a casual setting, but it's just pathetic if you can't speak in standard english in a setting like a job interview...just do one thing that a lot of people don't do...THINK BEFORE YOU SPEAK!

oh...and accents are different...there's nothing "wrong" with an accent that shows you are a from a certain region...that's different than just colloquial expessions or shortcuts.

Have you heard someone with a thick northeastern or southern accent speak before? It doesn't matter how well thought out their speach is, you cannot take them seriously.
