Boston Brahmin accent : ウィキペディア英語版 | Boston Brahmin accent The Boston Brahmin accent is a New England accent associated with the Boston Brahmins and is therefore quite different from the accent associated with most working-class Bostonians. Examples of people with this accent include Charles Eliot Norton, Henry Cabot Lodge, T. S. Eliot, Leverett Saltonstall, John Brooks Wheelwright, Katharine Hepburn, George C. Homans, Robert Lowell, McGeorge Bundy, Elliot Richardson, William F. Buckley, Jr., George Plimpton, and John Kerry.〔http://www.slate.com/articles/news_and_politics/explainer/2004/03/whats_a_boston_brahmin.html〕 In popular culture, use of the accent often denotes stereotypes such as pretentiousness or snobbery. Users of this accent include the characters Charles Emerson Winchester on ''M *A *S *H'', Thurston Howell III on ''Gilligan's Island'', Walter Gaines on ''Cheers'', Tracks on Transformers, and George Feeny on ''Boy Meets World''. The accent bears some similarities to the Mid-Atlantic accent, as well as a greater New York exaggeration known as Locust Valley lockjaw. ==Phonology==
