    Be honest, tell us all what it said and where you. or your accent, are originally from.


    What American accent do you have?

    As for me, with my broad Australian accent, it thinks I am from NY, so there :)

    JohnO's gonna love this:

    "That's a Southern accent you've got there. You may love it, you may hate it, you may swear you don't have it, but whatever the case, we can hear it."

    Philadelphia
    The Midland
    The Northeast
    The Inland North
    The West
    Boston
    North Central"

    Although I am a southern boy by birth and by choice people in the greater New Orleans area have several different accents none of which are traditionally "southern", usually when I go out of town no one seems to be able to place me by vernacular or accent!
