What kind of accent do you have?
| What American accent do you have? Your Result: The Midland "You have a Midland accent" is just another way of saying "you don't have an accent." You probably are from the Midland (Pennsylvania, southern Ohio, southern Indiana, southern Illinois, and Missouri) but then for all we know you could be from Florida or Charleston or one of those big southern cities like Atlanta or Dallas. You have a good voice for TV and radio. | |

This is me to a "T". I'm from southern Indiana. But I will say that I was in radion a decade ago, during which time I took a Voice and Diction class in college. Before then, I had a more "country" accent. It still comes out when I'm really nervous, really comfortable, or when I'm hanging out with others who have that accent.

I got almost exactly the same! Even though I'm from Arkansas, I think (and people out here tell me) that my accent must be fading. Like you, mine slips out occasionaly... espcially when I'm around family/friends from the south.
Ummm... I think your accent is more Southern than that. But it says mine is a "Western" accent, whatever that means. I guess it means I grew up in Colorado, huh?
To hear some people tell it, I'm not "Southern" but rather "a Yankee." LOL. Guess I'm just an all-around American boy.

Well, shoot far! I got a Midland acksent too!
I got a Midland accent too...I've always been told I had a voice for radio....
As bobby already knows, mine was the Northeast and Philadelphia in particular. It fits. I only live maybe twenty miles northwest of Philadelphia and lived in that area basically all my life.
I can't hide my Southern even on the Internet. (Not that I would try to, anyway)
