It's nothing like Tonto-speak, or Smith's accent. But I've only ever heard Native Americans using it.<br /><br />Trying to think of an example of it in a movie anyone has seen, the Native character in "Legends of the Fall" (played by Gordon Tootoosis) might have spoken it, but I'm not sure and it is a long time since I've seen the movie. I'm rather sure I detected this accent with Kenny Pheasant, an Odawa actor and educator who was in a movie none of you have ever seen.Robhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01478763837213733775noreply@blogger.com
