booked Maine now what??
hula - if you wish to succeed in Understanding and Speaking to people in Maine I have a couple of suggestions. First, any word ending in "ER" is pronounced as though it end in "AH". So, it's not lobstER, it's lobstAH. Second, if a word ends in an "a" it should be pronounced as though it ends in"er.". Thus tunA becomes tunER...and visa versa.
Also directions are normally given by landmarks. I always knew the way to my grandmothers because it was the street after the gas station just before you got to the hardware store on the left. Of course there were several miles between these places. Maine is a wonderful place to explore. Where else can you visit China, Poland, Norway, and Paris in the same afternoon. Have fun.
