I may not be from the Western coast, but I do have that neutral, newscaster's kind of voice! I've been told I speak very well and clearly over the PA system. XD

Nobody ever said the quiz was gonna be perfect... YOU ARE WRONG IM FROM KENTUCKY! Just cuz you're from there doesn't mean you have a Southern accent. This quiz is not about where you're from. Do you have a Southern accent? It said my accent is western but I'm from Texas. I have a Southern accent. I can understand that, the quiz isn't all that great for Texas because of the way you probably answered the first four questions (lot/thought etc.) since people from TX say "same" a lot for those and people from other Southern states don't.

After you take this quiz, go to this page and add yourself to the American Accent Map I'm making.

Yeah there's a West, if you think Lot rhymes with Thought, Don with Dawn, Hock with Hawk, and Collar with Caller--if you answered "same" to all those questions on the quiz--then you should have a Western accent.

Northern You have a Northern accent. That could either be the Chicago/Detroit/Cleveland/Buffalo accent (easily recognizable) or the Western New England accent that news networks go for. awesome right on the money the funny thing is i lived in VA 4 nine years and in CT for only 5 so i think i would have more of a southern accent

Western Like Midland, Western is a default, neutral, sounds-good-on-the-evening-news accent. So you might not actually be from the West (but you probably are). What the hell? I'd definetly say I have a southern accent, not a western one, considering I am from the south and people tell me I have one.
