List your American Accent.

So what do you sound like? What kind of American accent do you have that makes it distinguishable from any other American accent? Can you tell what region you are from based on your accent?

 

uuuhhh... i sound like everyone else from northern cali..


:leaving:

 

Well I guess being from the south I have a southern accent. I can't tell though probably because it's so unnoticeable when compared to all the stronger ones I listen to. Someone from another part of the country could probably hear one though.

 

everyone knows i'm from western PA

 

southern but not very strong.

 

usually american nuetral. but i've picked upa texas style oilfield twang from dave over the years. it's still pretty mild.

 

northern illinois accent here.... pretty neutral if you ask me.

 

what's american neutral?

 

mine is pretty neutral...northeastern NY...

 

New York with midwestern overtones.

 

Smooth... My accent is smooth as ice...

I have no idea what I sound like, when I record my voice and listen to it, it does not sound like what I hear when I talk.. Thusly, leaving me extremely disappointed...

 

I have no real idea what those sounds like really. What types of words do you say with an accent??

 

ummmmm...Canadian?


This thread reminds me of a video on teens we watched in psych once...
It was really funny cause everyone had these really strong Jersey (that's what I think it was...r's like w's?) accents...It made me laugh..I know it's mean and wrong, but I couldn't help it...

 

you'ns

n' nat

other odd shite

 

Apparently, I say "aboot" according to Americans. I say "pop" instead of "soda" and "kaw-fee" instead of "koi-fei" for coffee.

 

I know!!!

It's so weird to hear a recording of yourself...

you are like, god do I really walk around sounding like this?

 

I know, it startled me at first.. I was like, nah, that can't be.. I think I sound much cooler in my head than what actually comes out.. And when I hear my voice, I'm like, ah cripes, that is extremely annoying...

 

A slight Alsatian accent. Mostly English.

 

I share my daddy's Oklahoma drawl...

 

i also say pop
