What Accent Do You Have?

Filled the Northeast line all the way "probably North Jersey or New York."
Shocking!

 

One of the questions should be, "You or Youse?"

 

Or y'all

 

Fixin' needs to be in there as well.

"We was just fixin' to show y'all what a great town this is to get y'alls ass beaten."

 

shouldn't that be "all y'all"?

 

Texas with some western PA

 

'Cept it ain't "fixin", it's "fittin".

 

What are you talking aboot?

 

Strangest accent I ever heard was a girl I worked with in college who was from International Falls, Minnesota. (G'head, google map that place real quick).

She said aboot, among other really weird shit.

 

"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."

I think the term "lowest common denominator" is misused, but oh well.

When I want a fizzy beverage, I ask for a coke, though I know that's weird. But if someone says to me "You want a pop?" I interpret that as a threat they're gloing to "pop" me in the face.

And when someone says something I didn't quite hear, I don't bellow "Do Whut NOW?!?!?!" I say "Excuse me?" Or "I'm sorry?"

Never understood that. And it always makes me stop and stifle a laugh.

 

Like: "Did I tell you aboot the time I did three guys and a goat?"

 

Midland. Which is what it should be.
