Some of the words we use or the way we pronounce them.
Aht = out
dahntahn = downtown
`n-at = and that
goown = going
(in some cases) warshington = Washington (I've only ever heard one person from here say it that way)
yinz = you ones, alternative to "you guys" or "you all".
Are yinz goown aht ta dahntahn Warshington `n at? Suddenly, it's a whole new language!
