Pennsylvania Dutch English
So that's why my relatives near Harrisburg have that funny stress pattern on questions and the more rounded O's. They don't use any of those words, but I hope that the sound pattern doesn't fade in the future.
And a little bit of pride that I had picked up on the language being different around there. =)
