  1. A culture that is familiar to be would slang American. Words like sucka, playin'. In this culture, when you make the sound "er" they would say "a", fro example What are you looking at sucka" or "ing" which is what we say, they would say "in'" for example: "He's playin' my Guitar." that would be the culture that I'd think when I read Underground to Canada.

  3. I agree with Harold for the slang American because they do use slang words. The slang words are pickin, runnin and much more. For example they used the slang word pickin in the cotton feilds. Also they used the slang word runnin when they where escaping into the forest. That's the culture that I think they used.
