It's funny you should mention that Cajun. I read somewhere a similar thing that it sounds a bit like New Jersey and indeed a New Orleans colleague who worked with me in London was just like that. Words like "boid" for "bird" etc.
He didn't sound at all like Cajuns or rural Louisiana people I've heard on travel progs.
Talking about "The Big Easy". what did you think of Ned Beatty's accent ?
