Quiz

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 was surprised by this, although I shouldn't be. I was born and lived in the Philadelphia area until I was 7. However, I have lived in the south for over 45 years. I thought my yankee accent had been softened. I guess not.

This is so funny, it reminded me of the lady I met at the genealogy library who nailed my accent within just a few minutes of conversation....of course I lived in south PA longer than you did. Love, Jan

The quiz says I have a Midland accent, which basically means I have no accent at all. Kinda funny, but hey I'd be great for tv or radio it says!

Quiz said I had a Northeast accent New York or Conn, I did not expect that. Jan
