So I took a Facebook quiz "What's Your American Accent". I only took it because someone told me a short time ago that I had a Florida accent.
The test said I had a "New York State/Great Lakes" accent. This amuses me since I have lived in the deep south all my life.

Anyone else have an unusual accent that doesn't match where your from?

Link for those interested.

Lol. That one says I have a "Midland" accent meaning I don't have an accent. I guess years of high school English really did teach me proper English.

What American accent do you have?
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.

Neutral / General American
You have a neutral, or flat accent. You have no twang, or drawl and lack the colorful speech New York or Southern English. This dialect is becoming popular among businessmen in Europe and North America.

Lucky me, I'm aspiring to NOT be a businessman. Probably engineer or pilot. Well, at least everyone will be able to understand me, while I'm lost trying to determine what the hell the other people just said lol

Edit: btw, I have lived in CA for half my life, and the other half in MI, which has probably led to my current, supposedly neutral, accent.

That quiz says I have a western accent, but I live just about as far south as you can go.

I don't think I have an accent at all, but I guess most people don't think that they do have an accent.

Considering I live in the Far North-West I will take it.

Pretty damn good. Found the Midwest region, and that the correct word for carbonated beverages is "pop".
