pos: Appalachian English Appalachian English, also known in the United States as Southern Mountain English, is American English native to the Appalachian mountain region of the Eastern United States. Historically, the term "Appalachian dialect" refers to a local English variety of southern Appalachia, though Appalachian English today geographically encompasses multiple varieties, predominantly including Western Pennsylvania English as spoken in northern Appalachia and regional Southern U.S. English as spoken in central and southern Appalachia. In fact, the "Atlas of North American English" identifies the "Inland South" dialect region, in which Southern U.S. English's defining vowel shift is the most evolved, as centering squarely in southern Appalachia, around the cities of Knoxville and Chattanooga, Tennessee; Birmingham, Alabama; and Asheville, North Carolina. All Appalachian English is rhotic and characterized by distinct phonology, morphology, syntax, and lexicon. It is mostly oral but its features are also sometimes represented in literary works.

Du Bois, interviewing a survivor of a group that the Wintu called Waymaq ("north people"), who she believed were probably identical to the Okwanuchu, recorded some words, including "atsa" ("water").
