MY LANGUAGE

The language I feel most attatched to is the informal English that I speak in my family. I feel comfortable because I don't have to try to say complete sentences.I feel that the language I speak with my family is not appreciated in school, but looked down apon. I do not see my language in any of the assignments in class. I feel like I don't have an accent. However, when I attend family reunions all of my relatives say I sound "country." They say the same words I say, but somehow its sounds like I stress my vowels more in words. I believe I talk the way I do because my mom side of the family is from a small town in Missouri where they talk really different from formal language.
