"Lose"iana, not "Louise"iana

I was born in Monroe, and I usually say "Lose" iana.. My wife's friend, who is from Houma, accuses me of being from South Arkansas.

A "borrow ditch" is almost always pronounced "bar ditch" in west Texas.
You mean it's not a "bar ditch"? I've never heard it called anything else. I had to google it.

Have never heard it called anything other then bar ditch.

…there's a definite "eez" in Louisi. It just kinda rolls; think how you would pronounce Luigi. The is subtle, but its there.
I tend to pronounce sausage sah-sedge and saw-sedge interchangeably, which is weird because of my drawl.

Me too. St. Francis perchance? Anyway, there's a definite "eez" in Louisi. It just kinda rolls; think how you would pronounce Luigi. The is subtle, but its there.
