The Disappearing American Dialect of North Carolina
Hoi Toider, aka Ocracoke Brogue, is a dialect of American English spoken only on remote islands in North Carolina s Outer Banks. The unique accent and vocabulary developed over hundreds of years as a result of the area s isolation. Visitors often mistake the accent as foreign, but with origins dating back to the 1600s, Ocracoke Brogue is about American as it gets.
