White laugh It's true, ha everyone here is fine with Canada, infact I'm pretty sure 75 percent don't even know that Canada's a country! White laugh

One of the coolest things about »Fargo«, is the speech and dialogue!

*phone rings *
Marge: Oh, geez... ... Hi, it's Marge...
... Oh, my. Where?... Yah... Oh, geez...
... Okay. There in a jif...Real good, then.
*hangs up and her husband wakes up*
Marge: ... You can sleep, hon. It's early yet.
Norm: Gotta go?
Marge: Yah.
Norm: I'll fix ya some eggs.
Marge: That's okay, hon. I gotta run.
Norm: Gotta eat a breakfast, Marge. I'll fix ya some eggs
Marge: Aw, you can sleep, hon.
Norm: Ya gotta eat a breakfast... ... I'll fix ya some eggs.
Marge: Aw Norm


Man: ... So, I'm tendin' bar there at Ecklund && Swedlin's last Tuesday and this little guy's drinkin' and he says, 'So where can a guy find some action - I'm goin' crazy down there at the lake.' And I says, 'What kinda action?' and he says, 'Woman action, what do I look like,' And I says 'Well, what do I look like, I don't arrange that kinda thing,' and he says, 'I'm goin' crazy out there at the lake' and I says, 'Well, this ain't that kinda place.'
Gary: Uh-huh.
Man: So he says, 'So I get it, so you think I'm some kinda jerk for askin',' only he doesn't use the word jerk.
Gary: I unnerstand.
Man: And then he calls me a jerk and says the last guy who thought he was a jerk was dead now. So I don't say nothin' and he says, 'What do ya think about that?' So I says, 'Well, that don't sound like too good a deal for him then.'
Gary: Ya got that right.
Man: And he says, 'Yah, that guy's dead and I don't mean a old age.' And then he says, 'Geez, I'm goin' crazy out there at the lake.'
Gary: White Bear Lake?
Man: Well, Ecklund && Swedlin's, that's closer ta Moose Lake, so I made that assumption.
Gary: Oh sure
Man: So, ya know, he's drinkin', so I don't think a whole great deal of it, but Mrs. Mohra heard about the homicides out here and she thought I should call it in, so I called it in.
*few seconds silence*
Man: End a story.

This draws a pretty good picture of USAnian ignorance ... The dialect or accent in northwest USA comes from the enormous amount of scandinavian immigrants who setteled there, and has not so much to do with the Canadian way of speech.

Ya = Ja (Yes)
Aw = Ċ (Oh)
