Hmm the code didn't work..

What American accent do you have?Your Result: The Inland North

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."

The Midland

LMAO @ my answer!!!

Your Result: North Central

"North Central" is what professional linguists call the Minnesota accent. If you saw "Fargo" you probably didn't think the characters sounded very out of the ordinary. Outsiders probably mistake you for a Canadian a lot.

Btw, carbonated drinks *are* pop!

The Northeast

Judging by how you talk you are probably from north Jersey, New York City, Connecticut or Rhode Island. Chances are, if you are from New York City (and not those other places) people would probably be able to tell if they actually heard you speak.

I am so from the Dirty South!

 
"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.

Hmmm.... Actually, I call it soda... And I've never been asked if I was from Wisconsin or Chicago...

 
Your Result: The West

Your accent is the lowest common denominator of American speech. Unless you're a SoCal surfer, no one thinks you have an accent. And really, you may not be from the West at all, you could easily be from Florida or one of those big Southern cities like Dallas or Atlanta.

LOL! I guess they got me right, since I'm from Florida! Except I'm originally from Minnesota. I used to say "pop", but down here, you get dirty looks if you call it anything other than "soda" or "coke". lol!

Actually I am from Europe! I live in Atlanta though.

Funny, most people tell me I sound southern (I'm from Florida)

 
That's a Southern accent you've got there. You may love it, you may hate it, you may swear you don't have it, but whatever the case, we can hear it.

 
I got the midland accent! Cool, i'm brazilian and don't have an accent

That's right for me too as I'm Puerto Rican so no accent there. :p /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

 
I have Midland....Your accent is as Philadelphian as a cheesesteak! If you're not from Philadelphia, then you're from someplace near there like south Jersey, Baltimore, or Wilmington. if you've ever journeyed to some far off place where people don't know that Philly has an accent, someone may have thought you talked a little weird even though they didn't have a clue what accent it was they heard.

This was kind of cool, although, I'm orginally from Ohio, now living in Charlotte, I starting to sound more southern everyday.

 
I'm inland north, too. I live in Michigan, so it makes sense. For me, a carbonated beverage is definitely pop - soda is something that has ice cream and soda water in it, damn it! LOL I've heard Michiganders speak nasally and too fast, too, which is pretty accurate too.

Iowa actually but close. The only time I have an accent is if I am around someone enough to mimic them unconsciously.

Oh and a carbonated drink is pop unless I know calling it soda annoys the person and then it is soda.
