Haven't done one of these in a while.


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

Neutral. Not Northern, Southern, or Western, just American. Your national American identity is more important to you than your local identity, because you don't really have a local identity to begin with.

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?







I think this speaks to my "wandering" and "adaptable" accent. If I'm in a place for a few days or I'm hanging out with someone with a different accent I'll pick it up. Which is probably why people in Halifax thought I was from Prince Edward's Island, since we stayed about a week there. Or it's because I live in Los Angeles and it's such a mixing pot everything is there.

Apparently I'm from New York. Weird; everyone else says I'm British. Other than those Canadians who told me my Australian accent was quite broad.
