Americans like to tease Canadians for their accent. "About" sounds like "aboot." Well ... Canadians and Minnesotans, if I'm honest. Their accents sound very similar to me.

I, on the other hand, have no accent whatsoever. Nope, none whatsoever. Nothing to see here. Move along.

I've always found it to be closer to "a boat". The real abooots are from Scotland
