What American accent do you have?

Posted in Distractions by Matt on the November 29, 2006

Take the quiz.

My result:

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.”

Well played, internets. Well played.

    Amazing how defensive people get when you suggest that you are the one who doesn’t have an accent. This confirms what we midwesterners have been saying all along. Here’s what mine said:

    “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.
