what accent do you speak ? find out here
 

Spot on. I'm from the northeast as the quiz said. :)

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.

Labeled me Philly
 

I'm not from Philly or anywhere close. This must just consider accents of the EAST. I don't sound anything like those people who BOO Santa.

The West for me.... ;) I lived longer on the west coast than the east.

The results from the test said I was from the Great Lakes area which is right. I have heard that you pick up your accent during the first few years of hearing speech. I left the Milwaukee area in 1969 at about age 8 for Reno, NV., so that fits.

Of course, some people seem to be able to adjust their accents rather quickly to new environments. Not me, I still sound like a cheesehead at age 52.

OK, I'm impressed.

Not only did this peg me (raised in Missouri, lived many years in Southern Illinois), but I also worked on-air in radio for some years with a smattering of television (didn't do well on TV; lights hurt my eyes).

It says I definitely have a Boston accent. Yay!!!! I grew up in Massachusetts near the New Hampshire border but have lived in the New York City area for 37 years. GO PATRIOTS!!!! GO RED SOX!!!! Guess I kept my accent too :)

Well, fwiw my last company, Principal Financial, used me as narrator for marketing messages and slide shows for producers and consumers.

Very Interesting!
 

Did the quiz even though I am a Canadian and it said I was North Central , mentioned Minnesota, and could easily be mistaken for Canadian! Spot on.

Not even close. Says Inland North (where in heck is that???). Most of my accent is a mix if there's an accent at all -- Western with a touch of New York/Jersey and the deep South.

Midland??? or no accent at all
 

Born in California, there is the NO accent!....Most of my time in Florida and NC....Guess I should be glad that I got out of NC without picking up the Weeu-ins and You-ins!

spot on with me. Inland North. I am from upstate new York home of Gramma Brown's Baked Beans, white hots, deep fried haddock best in the land..go Doug's Fish Fry

It told me I was "Inland North". I'm from western NY most all of my life. I've worked as a narrator in the past an am told by many I have a "radio voice".

I'm not sure where "inland north" is, but if that is western NY, Buffalo/Rochester area, they got it right.
