What's your american accent?

A Off-Topic forum to discuss things that aren't related to the Amusement Park Industry.

I just thought it would be interesting if everyone got the same results since most people live around the Chicago area.

QUIZ HERE

I got "North Central" which somewhat correct I guess.

This stuff is interesting to me and I've posted it on forums with members from all over the US. So post your results!

I used to have the Chicago accent and now dont and purposely do everything possible not to speak that way after realizing how annoying and awful it is. Was funny when I moved to California everyone made fun of me for my accent and I didnt think I had one, now when I speak to someone from IL/WI I can quickley pick up on it.

That poll is really bad though, theres not even an option for southern people Y'ALL :)

It actually does but it will only be determined by a few of the questions. I think there is Boston, East Coast, South East, Southern, Neutral, Midwest, Midland, Northern, Western, North Central, and Canadian.

People from even Chicago can pick out my accent. Whenever I say a work like "bag, flag, dragon, ect" they always go "what? Say that word again"....and then laugh about it. Or with words like "about" or ones that have the "oo" sound.

No surprise.
I finally retired the Sarah Palin signature because she is now 100% irrelevant.
