French Acadian accent
This speech stems from the influence of Acadian settlers residing in French communities throughout Cape Breton, resulting in many loanwords.
Some characteristics:
Voiced th, as in "that", is usually replaced by a d sound, and voiceless th, as in "thin," is usually replaced by a t sound. For example, "three" can be pronounced as tree and "that" as dat. This can be seen in the stereotypical phrase "Dis, dat and dee uder ting" (This, that and the other thing).
The following is an example of phonetically transcribed English in the Cape Bretton accent:
Buddy: J'eet jet?
John: No, Ju?
Buddy: Nah, twirly.
---------------------
Buddy: Did you eat yet?
John: No, did you?
Buddy: No, it's too early.
