The present work studies the speech of a standard Southern-Midland speaker of American English. The informant is a resident and native of Charlotte, North Carolina, belonging to the area of the Apalachians and the Blue Ridge Mountains, which goes from the Pennsylvania line to northern Georgia. There is no dominant population center in this area and the speech features can occur either in the South or the South Midland.
