Our Story:
Twang was born around the dinner table (or is it supper table?) at our family gatherings in North and South Carolina. Having married into a good North Carolina family, there would inevitably be a saying I had never heard before, but somehow it still made sense. They tell a story or paint a visual in a short and concise one liner. Last summer, we started writing some of them down and the list has now grown to over 400! When we first started building the app, Twang would simply translate back and forth, but the problem was that I didn’t know that many sayings to ask Twang to translate. We found it much more fun to generate them! Try something like: “Margo, [Endearment] you [Compliment] but [Insult].” Twang will generate something like: “Margo, y’all fit as a fiddle but ain’t worth a hill of beans”. This app is meant to be fun, so have a sense of humor, compliment somebody or insult somebody with some good old Southern style. If you have any sayings of your own, use the “Suggest a Phrase” and we’ll include it. Our phrase dictionary updates each day so keep ‘em comin’! Have fun y’all!
