What American accent do you have?

<p>Midland. Have lived in California my entire life.</p>

<p>North Central? I’m from the South. What?</p>

<p>I got Midland even though I live in NY</p>

<p>Northern. I’m not sure how accurate this is, but I speak like Jack Kennedy. At least that’s what everyone says. I basicly sound like: “Ahsk naught whaht youah coantry cahn do fa you”</p>

<p>I’m from the South, but lots of people ask me if I’m Canadian. HAHAHAHA. I never had a “southern” accent.</p>

<p>100% Northeastern…I’m from Long Island so that makes sense.</p>

<p>Western :slight_smile: 92%</p>

<p>Northern. I have the General American accent though (aka no accent whatsoever). Grew up in Kansas + Michigan parents=made for tv voice</p>

<p>92% Midland. I live in Northern NJ, but my dad is from Indiana</p>

<p>a little bit bostonian :)</p>

<p>I don’t have one. It’s neutral.</p>

<p>^ You do, trust a British person, we have the original accents :D</p>

<p>I got Northeastern, weirdly enough. Every single one of my answers bar one (Wales and whales) was different, none of them are even remotely similar the way I say them :)</p>

<p>I’ve lived in northern Ohio and Pennsylvania all my life, so I think the accent is called General American.
When I first talked, up until I was around five years old, I had a Southern accent even though I never went to the South until I was thirteen. I have no idea why.</p>

<p>Pretty neutral. I’m from Arizona.</p>

<p>Texas, even though I’ve lived in Maine the last 27 years. People still say, “You’re not from around here, are you?” I don’t say “y’all” anymore, though, which is a shame. I still cringe when I hear something like, “We’ll come over to you guys’ house” with “guys’” pronounced “guyses.” Yikes.</p>

<p>When I go home, it seems that Texans’ accents have become stronger, but I know that’s just my perception living in Yankee land.</p>

<p>100% jurzee best state in America, except for maybe ny…</p>

<p>It said I’m mid atlantc- it said philly & south jersey. I’m from nyc</p>

<p>Chicagoan lexicon, mixed with some Mid-Atlantic accent from my time living in both places: ( I say: “you wanna come with?”, “clicker”, “lift”, “pop”, and “ruf” instead of “you want to come with me/us?”, “remote”, “elevator”, "soda’, and “roof”)
It all boils down to a very amusing trans-american accent that is not too foreign no matter where i go.</p>

<p>North Central, which actually fits because I live in northern NY right next to the Canadian border. Friends from other states say I sound like a Degrassi character.</p>

<p>@UKGirl23 I’m pretty sure “American” accents came first. At the time of the American Revolution, both the British and the Americans had what was closer to today’s “American” accent.</p>

<p>But anyway, I feel (like most people do) that I don’t have any accent, but I probably have a Mid-Atlantic accent.</p>
