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

Southern. Love it or hate it, your accent says you're probably from somewhere south of the Ohio River.

Midland. The Midland (please don't confuse with "Midwest") itself is the neutral zone between the North and South. But just because you have a Midland accent doesn't mean you're from there. Since it is considered a neutral, default, "non-regional" accent you could easily be from someplace without its own accent, like Florida, or a big city in the South like Dallas, Houston, or Atlanta.

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 gave it a try, and it accurately identified me as coming from south Jersey.

Whoever said that Pittsburgh has a non-regional accent has never heard of "Pants 'n' Nat". Ask Jason to do his Myron Cope impression, and you'll have a pretty good idea, if you've never heard it.
