What’s Yr Accent?
| What American accent do you have?
Your Result: The Midland
“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. |

One of my brothers, still living in New England, says that to him I now sound like a “southern belle.” Despite my time in Iowa, I don’t have that midwestern sound, not really, but it did round things out a little. Depending on the accents of the people I spend time with, I think my own accent probably varies a bit. Here the South, I don’t try to take on any of the many Southern accents, but I do slow down a bit and hang onto my vowels just that microsecond longer.
I think I probably still have a bit of that Boston area/Massachusetts thing going on. All it takes is five minutes talking with a friend from my hometown (between Boston MA and Providence RI), and I’ll be saying “OOooh, my Goooahd, thass WICked coool” even while laughing about it.
Dude! Me and Sully and Fitzie and Sean are gonna hit Landsdowne tonight after the game, hang out at the Beerworks. I’ll pick you up at the Coop at 6.
Yeah, still homesick.
