The Linguistic Frontier
(I was born and raised in Alaska. I’ve been told by a lot of people that I sound very generically American. I’ve been answering questions for this couple for about five minutes.)
Me: “Let me know if there’s anything else I can help you with!”
Male Tourist: “No, we’ll be fine, thanks.”
Me: “Okay. Enjoy your stay!”
Female Tourist: “Thanks, honey. You speak real good English for being an Alaskan!”
