    What American accent do you have?
    Your Result: The Northeast

    100%
    Judging by how you talk you are probably from north Jersey, New York City, Connecticut or Rhode Island. Chances are, if you are from New York City (and not those other places) people would probably be able to tell if they actually heard you speak.

          I find it hard to believe that my accent sounds remotely like anything spoken in New Jersey.

            You may think you speak "Standard English straight out of the dictionary" but when you step away from the Great Lakes you get asked annoying questions like "Are you from Wisconsin?" or "Are you from Chicago?" Chances are you call carbonated drinks "pop."

                    I'm more Philly than Albie!

                    My parents are form Gloucester City, but i was born and raised in Essex County, which is very "North Jersey".

                          Not to be rude, but you have the "deaf" accent and slightly British.

                          ACK!
