What American accent do you have?
Created by Xavier on Memegen.net

Northern. Whether you have the world famous Inland North accent of the Great Lakes area, or the radio-friendly sound of upstate NY and western New England, your accent is what used to set the standard for American English pronunciation (not much anymore now that the Inland North sounds like it does).

If you are not from the North, you are probably one of the following:
(a) A Southerner who hates Southern accents and tries really hard to "talk right"; or
(b) A New Yorker or New Jerseyan who doesn't have the full accent

Take this quiz now - it's easy!
We're going to start with "cot" and "caught." When you say those words do they sound the same or different?








So. Basically, I pronounce things correctly and/or I should be on the radio? I don't have an accent? I don't even understand.

Yes, I see your confusion. You do have a lovely voice, however, so I wouldn't worry all that much, were I you!

Now, I do have a question for you - how the bloody fuck did you manage to get the damn thing to put your description up? Mine didn't work! *is mad*

Aw, thanks! ;) *blush*

The description of my accent? Isn't your's there? I see it! :D

Weird. I can't see mine on my page at all - and when I look at yours on my page, it doesn't show up either. Only on your page, when I go direct to your journal, do I see it.

Very, very odd.

That IS weird! Gremlins in the computer, I bet.
