4. First try to jam your speech up into your nasal cavity.

Add R's at the end of consonant's ending in ah sounds, and replace spoken R's with 'ah' or 'uh' sounds.
Don't pause between words. Keep your voice monotone unless you are expressing emotion, then allow your voice to wildly go up and down the tonal spectrum.

'Wicked' is a very important universal adjective for very:
n-Yuh, it's wicked hot out.
'Fierce' can be used as well:
She was angry something fierce, ayuh.
Never use Wicked and fierce together. It does not work.

Stick to short simple words and sentences. Don't get wordy. Mainers aren't 'wordy'. A to the point people.

And remember: NASAL!
