What American accent do you have?
Your Result: Boston



You definitely have a Boston accent, even if you think you don't. Of course, that doesn't mean you are from the Boston area, you may also be from New Hampshire or Maine.

You may think you speak "Standard English straight out of the dictionary" but when you step away from the Great Lakes you get asked annoying questions like "Are you from Wisconsin?" or "Are you from Chicago?" Chances are you call carbonated drinks "pop."

Your Result: The Midland


 


"You have a Midland accent" is just another way of saying "you don't have an accent." You probably are from the Midland (Pennsylvania, southern Ohio, southern Indiana, southern Illinois, and Missouri) but then for all we know you could be from Florida or Charleston or one of those big southern cities like Atlanta or Dallas. You have a good voice for TV and radio.

Pretty accurate, I'm from Miami.
 
Inaccurate.

What American accent do you have?
Your Result: Philadelphia


 


Your accent is as Philadelphian as a cheesesteak! If you're not from Philadelphia, then you're from someplace near there like south Jersey, Baltimore, or Wilmington. if you've ever journeyed to some far off place where people don't know that Philly has an accent, someone may have thought you talked a little weird even though they didn't have a clue what accent it was they heard.

I was born in the Caribbean, but have lived in Miami for more than a decade. English wasn't my mother language, but I say this is spot on.

Your Result: North Central



"North Central" is what professional linguists call the Minnesota accent. If you saw "Fargo" you probably didn't think the characters sounded very out of the ordinary. Outsiders probably mistake you for a Canadian a lot.

totally true, im from Michigan, but i thought we were the only ones who called carbonated beverages "pop" as a kid, every time i went out of town no one knew what i meant by pop (even in Ohio)

i was wondering what North Central meant, but this quiz is def true, people from WI/MN sound like Canadians but they dont say aboot instead of about

Your accent is the lowest common denominator of American speech. Unless you're a SoCal surfer, no one thinks you have an accent. And really, you may not even be from the West at all, you could easily be from Florida or one of those big Southern cities like Dallas or Atlanta.
