What American accent do you have?
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.

What American accent do you have?
Your Result: The West



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.

The Best Coast

 

[stephenb]

When I see things about accents I always think of the Soda/Pop/Coke debate...

 

[DeadsetAce]

Boston accent...obviously

 

[ptownpimperoni]

I got "The West" and I'm from Portland, OR. It got me.

It said "Unless you're a SoCal surfer, no one thinks you have an accent." But I also read on someone else's from "The Midland" that "you don't have an accent." You probably are from the Midland (Pennsylvania ..." 

I live in Western Pennsylvania now and the people here definitely have an accent to me. Their questions sound like statements. I can't tell when someone is asking something, and when they're asserting something.

 

[SUSHI AND GRITS]

I live in California, but I've lived on the east coast before as well as North Carolina.

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.

[pleasurephd]

Got inland north, or midwest.

Terribly inaccurate. I'm born and raised in Cali, still here too, and people from the midwest (Chi and Wis) have even told me I have a west coast Californian accent.

 

[The_Isomotion31]

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."

Born and grew up in Chicago so this thing was actually accurate

Got the South.

Lived in Cali most of my life but my mother's side of the fam is from the South and we visit a lot. Also lived in Atlanta for 4 years. :shrug:

[table][tr][td]What American accent do you have?
Your Result: The Northeast

Judging by how you talk you are probably from north Jersey, New York City, Connecticut or Rhode Island. Chances are, if you are from New York City (and not those other places) people would probably be able to tell if they actually heard you speak.
