We’re Not Midwesterners Quite Yet…

Filed under: Daily Life — Christine at 10:20 pm on Friday, September 14, 2007

I just took the the American Accent Quiz and lo and behold… I still have a west accent. I haven’t totally been converted to the midwest yet… HOWEVER… I don’t hear the accent around here anymore like I did when we first moved… You can take the quiz too by using the link at the bottom of my results.

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

Your accent is the lowest common denominator of American speech. Unless you’re a SoCal surfer, no one thinks you have an accent. And really, you may not even be from the West at all, you could easily be from Florida or one of those big Southern cities like Dallas or Atlanta.

The Midland
