I Speak with a Midland Accent

I just took an interesting quiz. It purports to tell you with what kind of accent you speak. In my case, the result was right on!

What American accent do you have?

Midland

"Midland" is not necessarily the same thing as "Midwest". The default American accent that newscasters try to imitate. Since it's a neutral accent, because you have a Midland accent doesn't mean you're from the Midland.

Personality Test Results




I'm not quite sure where I got it. I learned to speak in Michigan, but my father is from New Jersey and my mother Mississippi. I guess they kind of canceled out and I became rather accentless.

Interesting little quiz. Try it yourself...click here.
