- typical goldenrod (pittsburgh) accent with faint traces of a southern drawl picked up from his mom at an early age

- prefers to speak in short sentences, has a hard time keeping track of long ones
- drops almost all "g" sounds from the ends of words (ie. nothin', drinkin')
- also drops "t" sounds from the ends of words, but slightly more sparingly (ie. jus', wannany)
- - this allows them to be mushed together with the following words too (ie. "jussa li'l SWEETIE")
- lots of stutters like t-this!!
- - longer stutters to be sprinkled in s-s-s-sparingly
- repeats one or two words pretty often, usually at the beginning of a sentence (ie. "let's get-- let's get lunch")
- - can also restart a sentence but use different wording on the second attempt (ie. "let's get-- wanna get lunch")
- combines words a lot, if there's a way to slur words together he'll do it (ie. it's a... -> issa..)
- almost always shortens "it's" at the beginning of a sentence into just "s" (ie. "s'okay")
- "uh"s a whole lot, "um"s a fair bit less
- randomly pauses a lot
- every now and then gets caught in a loop of repetition because the sentiment either got stuck in his head or he just likes the sound of a word
- has trouble pronouncing longer words so he shortens them (ie. escalay, 'scara)
- just dropping letters from words without any rhyme or reason is fairly common
- his go-to way of referring to "all of you" is "yinz" but when in company that makes him uncomfortable he'll say "y'all"
- mixes up the order of his words easily when excited and will have to try the sentence again, sometimes with no success
- on Very High Energy, Low Function days he talks like jojo siwa and only julian can understand him
- - when just content and/or low energy, the jojo speech turns into heavy incomprehensible slurring
- slurs a lot in general, bleeding words together and making them hard to understand
- has some unique words for things, some being specific to goldenrod, some things originahing from his grandma or uncle, and some he just made up after having forgotten what something is actually called.
- often drops pronouns, most often "I" (ie. "I've been hungry" -> "been hungry")
- - often says "ya" rather than "you" and mashes it together with other words (ie. "d'ya ever just--")

(PHONETIC SO THEY DON'T MATTER IN WRITING)
- "ow" sounds become "ah" sounds (ie. dahn)
- "th" sounds in the beginning of certain words become "d" sounds (ie. dere)
- "-eel" and "-eal" sounds just become "-ill"
- very slight lean towards excluding "r"s sometimes (ie. here -> heah)
