What's your accent?

Instead of calling it "Midland," I think I'm going to have to call my accent: "Mil-brat." Because I'm not from any of the places named. I was born in Tennessee, grew up in the Army, eventually landing in Oklahoma. Oh, and I pick up accents pretty easily so I have to watch it or it sounds like I'm making fun of people when I'm really not.


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

"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.

Sorry about that, Linda. I think I've got fixed now.

turns out I'm a midlander too...though I'm from the Northeast...but I guess all the traveling makes my accent "flat"

I ended up with the Inland North, though I've never lived there in my life - go figure :) I pick accents up easily too, particularly Southern ones.
