A fun question born only of my boredom and curiosity for these sorts of things:

Can you guys tell me about the characteristics of different accents or dialects of Russian? Like what makes someone in Moscow sound different from someone in St. Pete etc. I remember hearing that the accent from the Urals was way different from moscow or something... not really too sure of course.

Thanks ^_^

Now, that's funny. In Moscow I have never heard "сахар-песок", but "сахарный песок" instead. On the other case, "caхар-рафинад" is widely used for sugar "bricks".
