This gave me more pause than most of what I've read on the list. I've lived
in s.WI
(a county or 2 away from Steve's place) all my life, interested in the
different
accents but never thought much about this one. word The R & the A are more
important, the A sounding close to the A in Yeah; the S is almost immaterial.
Usually closest to Rass, but Zs are often only implied by use of an S sound.
More interesting, what you hear from the older & more rural people is "pick
berries"
or "berry picking", w/o mention of kind because of coure you know what's in
season.
