What accents in the world pronounce "do" as "dee"? "They dee indeed," as then I will write a poem in that language.

I figure it is better to capture the accent than just create random accentuating of this word or that.

Vaguely Scots-Irish? Some of them say "doo" as "do-ee".

This is the most correct answer in the thread.

Also some Scots accents pronounce 'do' as 'dae' (like day).

Also I think for the record I should mention in the Scots accents that pronounce 'do' as 'dae', they pronounce 'die' as 'dee' (although it's spelled 'die').
