Trenton Area Accent

Trenton Area Accent

How we say things in the Trenton area. A bunch of words
we Trentonize:

Acme AK A MEE, Thriftway THRIFFWAY, Water WOODER,
Tomato Pie TAH MATE AH PIE, Potato PAH TATE AH,
Atlantic Mills LANNICK MILLS, Trenton TREN IN, Quarter
KORDER, Morrisville MARSVILLE, Chimney CHIM LEE,
Pavement PAYMENT, Police PLEACE, Window WINDA.

Additional note: Natives may say TrenTon in cases such
as a job interview or when speaking with OUTSIDERS
but if they say anything other than TREN IN when among
us they are traitors LOL:)

He was in an accident and they took him to "Helen Flood" .. Helene Fuld.

Tomato Pie was a dead give away since only in Trenton was it called a Pie.

The things these jokers try to pass off as "Genuine Trenton Tomato Pies" today are jokes.
