One of the Things I Love About Americans

...is their accent! I'm currently trying to get the dialogue for my latest MS (NY & Alabama) right. Hooee, it's a challenge. Anyway, in my roving, I came across this little bit of fun and couldn't resist seeing what part of America sounds most like country Australia.

What American accent do you have?
Your Result: The Northeast
 

Judging by how you talk you are probably from north Jersey, New York City, Connecticut or Rhode Island. Chances are, if you are from New York City (and not those other places) people would probably be able to tell if they actually heard you speak.

The South
 
The Midland
 
Philadelphia
 
The Inland North
 
The West
 
Boston
 
North Central

Hi there. Thanks for stopping by my blog. At least I think this is you. I found you on Amanda's blog. When you posted on my blog I clicked on your name, but it said profile not available, so I couldn't go to your blog that way. I ended up googling Babe King and found you through Amanda's blog. Hope you don't mind. I just wanted to return the favor and say hi;) Nice blog. I like the layout.

"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.

I was born, raised and still live in southeastern N.C. I think I always get these results, because my father was from Chicago. He could've had a little bit of influence on the way I talk.
