for example, i鈥檝e heard of the U.S. dialect of Spanish.

some states like mine (Minnesota) have american norwegian (which I might learn along with european Norwegian)

does chicago speak the european version or is there a us dialect?

(poniewa偶 m贸wisz o j臋zyku polskim i wiem, 偶e m贸wisz po polsku)

moja rodzina (macocha i tata) m贸wi po polsku z ameryka艅skim akcentem. moja macocha jest native speakerem j臋zyka polskiego i nauczy艂a si臋 angielskiego jako dziecko. poniewa偶 dorasta艂a w chicago, jej angielski sta艂 si臋 lepszy ni偶 jej polski i teraz m贸wi z ameryka艅skim akcentem.

m贸j tata nauczy艂 si臋 polskiego od mojej macochy, on jest amerykaninem i te偶 nauczy艂 si臋 od kogo艣 z ameryka艅skim akcentem.

translation

my family (stepmom and dad) speak polish with american accents. my stepmom is a native speaker of polish and learned english as a child. because she grew up in chicago, her english became better than her polish and now she speaks with an american accent.

my dad learned polish from my stepmom, he is american and also learned from someone with an american accent.
