Great American Vowel Shift

John Titor never talked or shall we say "TAULKT" about the Great American Vowel Shift which causes in 2036 the language of 1975 to sound "funny". He did not say that his speech patterns were distinctive or that movies from the 80's and 90's sound strange to a person of the future.

The event spoken of as the Great American Vowel Shift is taking place right now. It will affect our manner of speech and we will sound strange. I notice that young people speak shifted, while the old talk "vintage".
