Take this quiz and find out if you really speak with an accent from your area of America.

This is a great quiz to take if you from the deep south, southwest and along the coast, up in cw country like Minnesota and Michigan and for us people in the Boston area who speak correctly when we say, “Pahk the cah in Hahvahd yahd”

And sorry but the people in Florida are just plain weird. You get everyone from the country retiring there so there’s no real accent. It’s just all mixed up.

What American accent do you have?
Your Result: North Central
 

“North Central” is what professional linguists call the Minnesota accent. If you saw “Fargo” you probably didn’t think the characters sounded very out of the ordinary. Outsiders probably mistake you for a Canadian a lot.
