Here's how it's done.
Yesterday I talked at length with my sister and brother in law to congratulate them on my youngest nephews wedding on Saturday. Afterwards I found myself slipping back into the New England accent for the rest of the day. I will slip up every now and then when talking with my boss and his wife and they nail me every time. When our company was still up and running if someone paged my wife it would be "LinDUH, call extension XXX".

Watch The Departed and listen to Martin Sheen when he asks Leonardo to come inside and have some supper. BEST BOSTON ACCENT EVER.

Definitely. It was a Packie store for me the entire time growing up. Here's a couple others. Jeans are dungarees and a purse is a pocketbook.

I only thought squares and old ladies called jeans "dungarees." I didn't know it was Boston thing.

Totally a Boston thing. They are even advertised in stores that way.
