quick linguistic quiz

This result made me laugh out loud!!! (As seen at Dr. Crazy's.)
I've been living in Philly for what? A YEAR?! Guess this is where I belong.

What American accent do you have?
Your Result: Philadelphia

Your accent is as Philadelphian as a cheesesteak! If you're not from Philadelphia, then you're from someplace near there like south Jersey, Baltimore, or Wilmington. if you've ever journeyed to some far off place where people don't know that Philly has an accent, someone may have thought you talked a little weird even though they didn't have a clue what accent it was they heard.

I would have said all along that's your accent. It's from all your relatives AND growing up in that general vicinity--at least your first 10 years. It doesn't surprise me one bit!

Comments

yep, sorry, j-net, i think that's always been your accent...unless they have a pittsburgh choice? you're kind of in-between, to me. the quiz got me right on...pure midland, missouri (not vermont - grin). hey, email me -- do you have time to come over tomorrow or thursday evening at all?
