What American accent do you have? | Comments

Pinned me down to a "T" - thought that I lost it. I was born in New York City but raised in Port Chester, N.Y. on the Connecticut border. For the past 40 years lived in the SouthWest.

West, eh? Raised in Western MACHUSETTS. (The "missing letters" refer to a number of MA Congress Critters.) Have lived 30 yr in SE. Only short visits to W on very few occasions.

ugh stop posting stupid chains! I got midland/no accent :D told you i dont have one except i do long oo sounds lke instead of saying all or awesome itll be ooall and ooawesome

Wooh! I Have A Southern Accent Babayy. Lol. This Quiz Totally Got My Accent Right. I Live In South Carolina And I Have The Countriest Accent Ever So This Quiz Is The Bomb. You Should Take It. (:

Missed my accent. I'm as New England as they come (I drop the "r," I add the "r," etc.). But the quiz has me "Midland." People in the Midland think I talk funny, "kind of like the Kennedys," I've been told.

I am from England so I accept that my (twenty years in America) hybrid accent is definitely closest to New England, except for Boston....

I'm from NYC I took the accent test it said I had a Philly accent. Anyone who's heard me speak can tell I'm from New York, so not super accurate.

Hehe I sneaked in as I am Canadian, but you found me :) "You're probably often mistaken as Canadian" hehe. English in its truest form.

i got north central

i now live in arizona, but i'm originally from chicago. it's hard, i almost needed someone to read it to me cause i probably changed some words?

my dads friend from chicago told me today i sound like i have a canadien accent, but people here in arizona, ask me if i'm from chicago allllllll the time! and i say pop, not soda.

That was dead on! It said i had a Philadelphia accent, and I'm from philly, i never knew that i had a distinct accent like that

It says I have a southern accent. I can't hear it when I speak, but my whole family is from there and people always say I sound southern too. Cool!

I'm country as a turnip green with an accent thicker than cornbread batter and this quiz said I have the "no accent accent". Malarky!

Pegged me from the Great Lakes region. I lived in Chicago as a little kid- age 1-6, but have lived most of my life on the West Coast (L.A. with a few years in Seattle). Very odd that it outed me.

Born and lived in Milwaukee, WI until age 28; then lived in Chicago until age 61; then moved to Florida (68 now). Quiz said I may be asked: "Am I from Wisconsin?" or "Am I from Chicago?"

That was pretty cool. According to that quiz I'm from the NorthEast. I am actually from Australia though it was a COOL quiz to take!

Anyone who says that Southern Indiana is the 'midland' accent (or nondescript, as it were) has never been to southern Indiana.

Haha, my result was the place I'd lived longest, and my next two results were the other places I've lived. Pretty good!

It says I'm midland and since I'm a lifelong Iowan that sounds close enough, but if a midland accent is no accent how come when I do laundry I "warsh cloze"?

this thing is perfect for me ! it said i have a southern accent, and i used to have a very strong one, then i moved where ppl don't have one...but i can still kinda have it. also, it says that my voice is good for tv and radio, and im an aspiring actress! ho cool is that!?

Way off, says I've got a Jersey or New York accent. I'm from the Oregon coast. Lived here all my life to, lol. Though I visited the East for 8 days last summer...

I got a Midland accent. I was born in North Carolina and raised in Florida though. (I'm also half-Irish.)

i got "the south" when i say bag it sounds like "vaulge" its true i have an accent and i have tongue tie with makes it worse everyone laughs at my accent it makes me sad :( help me

Gets North Central: You must be mistaken for a Canadian a lot.

Me: Canadian who took the quiz for fun.

Hahaha, Im from the south, but I talk so different from most of my family, so it said I have a midland accent
