Awesome, I'm generic.

But I've never been anywhere near "the midland."
Born and raised on the west coast.




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.

"North Central" is what professional linguists call the Minnesota accent. If you saw "Fargo" you probably didn't think the characters sounded very out of the ordinary. Outsiders probably mistake you for a Canadian a lot.

That's odd, but then the test really didn't have many variables.
You sound exactly like what you are if one knows what to listen for.
You sound like you're from near boston, or grew up with people from near boston.

I don't recall you sounding anywhere near Minnesota.
