My most Southern-sounding word is "five", and then of course there's the phrase, "Bless his/her heart."

mine is "window-sill"
which comes out sounding like "windaseel"

or even worse is my use of "you want some?"
sounding like "ya-ont sum?"

I probably could have put "you want some?" on this list, now that you mention it.

The intensity of my southern accent depends on how many cocktails I've had.
