Martha Berry made yearly treks from Ohio to preserve accent Shares enlightenment on White Cash Market, Roy Owen, and Joe Allison's photography shop, as well as a succinct interpretation of "I don't care to do that."

I love our local nuances and dialect and missed all of that when I lived in Northern Ohio. I would come home every summer for 2 weeks to be sure that I kept my accent and not succumb to the northern Ohio speech.The writer, Martha Berry, is part of the Adair County diaspora displaced in far-way Campbellsville, KY.

Ben Breeding examines: I don't care to do that Comments re article 43005 Talking Right Mysterious phrases in Adair Co KY speechBen Breeding writes: Ed, I don't know if this is proper, but in southwest Adair Co., "I don't care to do that" would mean the person does not want to do "that". This is similar to responding that you "would not care for any" to an invitation for a food dish, which means you do not want any of it.Thanks for the insight on the regional nuances within the Supreme Shire of the term, "I don't care to do that," which, since the charged controversey steered up by the incomer George Kolbenschlag, who is beginning to settle in after 20 years. This Kolbenschlag has caused sleepless night for lots of Adair Countians since he put the matter on the table, knowing full well it would be a lightning rod for debate.
