What American accent do you have? | Comments

I'm not from the west, I'm a southern girl, if you heard me talk you would think I was a redneck, but I try to keep it classy.

I'm actually from England but I decided to take the quiz anyway and I got 100% Northeast?

This says I am from the Northeast. I grew up and lived in Alabama 36 years. I also have lived in Texas, Tennessee, and SC.

I live in North Carolina
But, I was born in Omaha Nebraska
I am midland and I have midwestern accent

This says I'm from Philadelphia--I've only been there once. Raised in the south, now living in the northeast. Strange....

Right on. I'm from the South. But it says that I'm only 1% more than Philadelphia. That couldn't possibly be.

I come from the London area of England, and the quiz was 93% certain I came from the Northeast of the USA!

I was born in Pennsylvania and now live in Arizona. According to this I have a Boston" accent. Wrong.

I am from central Alabama. Guess we all have individual idiolects that share various aspects of pronunciation from cultural, educational and personal specificity .

So wrong--have never lived where you say my accent is from. Have lived around the world but never in the area you said.

Pity you didn't throw in "roof" and "root" You will get a definite upper great lakes/MN take on those.

Not New York. Born in Sydney Australia, spent 2 years in Boston form age 1.5 to 3.5 years. Lived in Florida for 20 years after that.. Who knows?

I am from no where near Philadelphia, I am from South Texas. You can't judge and you couldn't be more wrong.

I got "midland" even though I'm southern. You should've asked how people say the plural of "you." (Y'all, you guys, you guyes, etc.)

Wrong, wrong, I came out as being from Philadelphia,,,,, Born and raised in Arizona, have lived in Calif. for over 40 years.

Well, the survey thinks there'a a 97% chance I'm from the Northeast. I'm from Chicago. Well, hell -- that's northeast of San Diego.

I am from the Midwest and never have been to Philly - but would love to go! I wouldn't sound like a foreigner there!!

I agree with Goober on the Mary question. I was born in CO, raised in UT, back in CO for 24 yrs, yet the results said "Midlands" NOPE.

From the other comments, seems this quiz has the most problems pegging down anyone from the west coast. Pegged me as from Boston - nope - LA area. Fun though

Awesome! Im not from anywhere " midland" cause I live in NM but you are pretty dang accurate! C:

I'm from Britain and I got North Eastern. Apparently I speak like a New Yorker, awesome.

the south thats so true i was born and raised n south west LOUISIANA ima country girl i love ridin hores and barrel racing an aint noutin yall can say to change dat

i got midland but i know in reality that i have a northern ca, because well, i live there and everyone here sounds the same. is there even a north ca accent? well, there should be.

I Was born in maryland lived here all ove my life but the quiz thinks I sound like I come from philly they think don and dawn sound the same I answered that they did not in the quiz?

Dude, this is a nice quiz, I'm from the pacific northwest but got Eastern, took it again and got west.
