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!

She says the first syllable as she's going to say "wood" and then REALLY emphasizes the 't' in the second part. Quote:

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.
