Northeastern.
You're probably from somewhere near New York City, possibly north Jersey, or Connecticut or Rhode Island. If you are from New York City you may be one of the types who people never believe when you say you're from New York.


Accurate, what about you?
 
Southern. Love it or hate it, your accent says you're probably from somewhere south of the Ohio River.

Duh! kentucky actually :p

Northern. Whether you have the world famous Inland North accent of the Great Lakes area, or the radio-friendly sound of upstate NY and western New England, your accent is what used to set the standard for American English pronunciation (not much anymore now that the Inland North sounds like it does).
 
I don't really have any kind of an accent, just American...but apparently I sound black when I get angry.
 
Midland. The Midland (please don't confuse with "Midwest") itself is the neutral zone between the North and South. But just because you have a Midland accent doesn't mean you're from there. Since it is considered a neutral, default, "non-regional" accent you could easily be from someplace without its own accent, like Florida, or a big city in the South like Dallas, Houston, or Atlanta.


Guess that's accurate. I was born in Florida and live in Georgia.
 
New York City. You are most definitely from New York City. Not New Jersey, not Connecticut. If you are from Jersey then you can probably get into New York City in 10 minutes or less.

I guess that narrows it down. Are you from NY btw?
 
location says no. i was just wondering what the closest american accent would be to my particular english accent.
 
Western. Like Midland, Western is another accent that people consider neutral. So, you might not actually be from the Western half of the country, but you definitely sound like it.

I'm boring :csad:
 
Canada. You probably get irritated when British people and Europeans think you're from the States, but over here we wouldn't make a mistake like that.

I got Midland as well. I was born in St. Louis; but I grew up (late elementary school on) and live in Georgia.
 
Bostonian/Mainer.

It's not a car, it's a caah.

It's not a park, it's a paahk.
 
They completely omit the weirdness that is New England accentery. I mean seriously... how could one "fahgedus"? ;)

True, since I'm from Detroit!!

ha-ha.

They gave me both Western and Midland, the two most neutral accents.

I'm from California. Close enough.
