Right on the money
Jen had this fun little quiz on her blog. It asks you to answer questions about words that sound similar or the same and then evaluates your accent. My accent is from the “Midland”. Whenever I travel people are surprised that I am fron Texas because I don’t have much of a southern accent. Really my only giveaway is the fact that the word “ya’ll” is a regular part of my vocabulary. Most people do seem to think I am from the midwest.
| 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. |
