What American Accent do you have?
Stumbled accross this online quiz recently:
http://www.gotoquiz.com/what_america...nt_do_you_have Your Result: Philadelphia:D "Your accent is as Philadelphian as a cheesesteak! If you're not from Philadelphia, then you're from someplace near there like south Jersey, Baltimore, or Wilmington. if you've ever journeyed to some far off place where people don't know that Philly has an accent, someone may have thought you talked a little weird even though they didn't have a clue what accent it was they heard." http://www.siyclone.com/forum//style...efault/YES.gif Wooder Ice for all my friends! and I attract Geeks...fine with me Now I have someone to watch Matrix, Star Wars 1-6 and play Gauntlet with..wait that's Mr. Starfish http://creditboards.com/forums/style...fault/yes2.gif yes! |

http://www.gotoquiz.com/what_america...nt_do_you_have I supposedly have a southern accent. I know people that would agree and disagree, so who knows? lol |
"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.
funny...I am from Dallas |
My results: You have a Southern accent. Right on the money, baby! :D

Midlander, although I object to anything south of Kankakee being called Southern Illinois. Just on principle.

Your Result: The Insland North
You may think you speak "Standard English straight from the dictionary" but when you step away from the Great Lakes you get asked annoying questions like "Are you from Wisconsin?" or "Are you from Chicago?" Chances are you call carbonated drinks "pop." I'm from Denver - but I do call carbonated drinks pop ;) |
I got the Midland accent, too. :( I've always been the Southern girl that talks proper, but I just paid attention in English classes.
A lot of Southerners and Atlantans will be surprised when I say I'm born and raised in Atlanta because I don't sound like it. Whatever. :rolleyes: At least I get joy that people outside the South hear my slight Southern accent. :D |
I'm sorta "generic" California with a little of my home town, NOLA, thrown in. And we call carbonated drinks "cold drinks". We refer to Barq's Cream Soda as "red drink".
A NOLA accent is different, depending on which part of town you're from. If you're from, for instance, the lower 9th Ward, you'd sound like ersatz Brooklyn. If you're uptown, you have more of a southern drawl. I'm from the West Bank, but I paid attention in English class and am a former broadcaster (and present podcaster), so I really don't sound like a "yat" (as in, "where y'at?", the standard New Orleans greeting.) |
I'm Southern.
Try the one on wht type of person do you attract. http://www.gotoquiz.com/what_type_of...do_you_attract |
You attract Geeks!
Your stunning intellect and love of sci-fi and video games allures the geeks like nothing else. Maybe it is the sparkle in your eye that makes them want to text you, who knows. Geeks make good partners, but tend to be arguementative. If you are a TRUE geek magnet, you will know if that was spelled correctly, and actually care. If it is a bad-boy/bad-girl you are seeking, you are barking up the wrong tree, unless they are just 'bad' behind a PS2 console. Sweet, I love my geek :D |
I have a midland accent :) and I attract geeks. :(
|
Philadelphia
|
Right on the money for me:
Midland accent (Ohio, Pennsylvania, Indiana, etc.). Since I live in Ohio, my accent fits me perfectly. |
Although I'm a midwest woman I've been told I have a southern accent.
|
You attract Yuppies!
You attract the very well-dressed, job oriented type of people. They usually have their finances together, are 'middle of the road' on most topics, generally happy with the 'main-stream' of things. If it is stability you are after, these are good people to attract, if you seek adventure, it may be time for an overhaul. I like Yuppies, but Yuppies don't like me right now. I haven't dated one in about 6 months, dang it. |
I attract Yuppies and this is somewhat true! LOL
|
It says I have a southern accent. :confused:
|
I attract geeks.:confused: :confused: Since when?:confused: :confused:
|
Perfect results:
I have a southern accent according to the quiz and second for me was the midland north. Perfect b/c I'm born and raised in the Midwest (Chicago) and Atlanta. SC |
Philadelphia.

So am I the only person who got "The West"

I attract models :rolleyes: Congrats, something about you makes those model-quality people flock to you. This is good for obvious reasons - they look great, just having them nearby attracts other models, and it opens doors for you - like exclusive clubs and whatnot. If you are seeking pure physical beauty, you are all set. If you are seeking someone that is not cynical and slightly bitter about humans in general, someone focused on the human condition and intellect, then you are out of luck - but who cares, you attract models! |
The South:)
|
My accent is: The South!!!! :D Right on the money!!
I thought I was going to attract yuppies or models but this is what I got: Your Result: You attract artsy people! Those free spirited artists with great imaginations find you interesting. They are usually interesting themselves, so its not a bad thing, but they CAN be a bit wifty and choose odd goals. If you like life to always be a bit 'different' from the norm, but not too extreme in any one direction, these are the people for you. If you seek logical decision making skills and good money management, you may want to change something in the way you appear. Artsy people are fun for adventure and exploring, so, have fun! (smoking weed helps too) Considering who I have a crush on, this is probably appropriate. |
That's a Southern accent you've got there. You may love it, you may hate it, you may swear you don't have it, but whatever the case, we can hear it.
Yes i'm a Southern Girl. |
My Accent is: The Inland North "You may think you speak "Standard English straight out of the dictionary" but when you step away from the Great Lakes you get asked annoying questions like "Are you from Wisconsin?" or "Are you from Chicago?" Chances are you call carbonated drinks "pop."
I'm not where from the North...I'ma a sad :( |

I am COMPLETELY SOUTHERN BRED TO THE BONE...but I have a very refined way of speaking. |
I have a Midland accent. I am from Kentucky (close to Southern Illinois). I have been told that I do have a radio voice several times before. Kinda weird.
