| Re: Quiz: What American accent do you have? How about the word "water". Most in the country say the first vowel the same way a doctor would say open up and say "ahhh". Not Philly. We say wooter. We're weird. And we're assholes. Sorry! |

| Re: Quiz: What American accent do you have? LOL it says im North Central. I have no idea where that came from..... 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.

| Re: Quiz: What American accent do you have? It's just like in the word "whore." Quote:
No real accent is accurate because I like to pronounce everything properly, intentionally. Good voice for radio? Yep, I have been the voice of a phone system before (recorded the greeting/menu system/options for my company once).

| Re: Quiz: What American accent do you have? Same here. I've lived in Murrland, from All-neey, to Sal's-Bury, to Bahlmur. If anything I think that when I've had too much to drink or not enough sleep I drag out my Os or add Ws to them. But I definitely have never had someone tell me I sound like I'm from Chicago or Wisconsin.

| Re: Quiz: What American accent do you have? Thankfully, Boston was at the bottom of my list. I think that could be THE WORST accent in the nation, almost the world...down there with the French phlegm-speak. Also, ever notice how many British women sound great when they speak, but the British men sound annoying? I even had a British woman voice on my GPS for a while, until she started mispronouncing too many street names.

| Re: Quiz: What American accent do you have? Lots of the Philly thing going on, that's where it put me too. Midland was second. I grew up in MD, in Mont. County.

| Re: Quiz: What American accent do you have? Inland north for me too? I'm from Appalachia, pure bred hill jack. I've lived all across the country except the great white north.
