I noticed that foreigners are likely to leave comments. Maybe they worried about their accents. I'm a Chinese, a foreigner. Could I give a piece of advice? How can you use so many uncommon words to examine our accents? Or my English is still awful???......

I got Western both on this quiz and the last but I haven't lived anywhere outside of Massachusetts. Maybe anyone who isn't from the Boston area of MA sounds like someone from the West?

I'm from Pittsburgh, so I guess "Ah'm aht uh luck." I DO pronounce "about" and "loud" the same, but they're pronounced "abaht" and "lahhd." (Make that "prahnahnced")

I got a tie between Midland and North Central.
I'm from Missouri, but I have never said "Missurah" instead of "Missouri" and I don't pronounce "forty" as "farty," I actually say it like I'm only halfway pronouncing the "r."

Another thing I noticed is that I have a tendency to say "eh" after almost every sentence and no one else here does.

Quiz was correct, I grew up 15 miles SE of the Loop, and have Northern speech. But this is the speech I learned in school, not at home. My home dialect is sloppy pronunciation, influenced by living in a blue collar, 1st to 3rd generation E European community. This includes the pattern of dropping articles(the, a)and pronouncing certain sounds as in Polish language (Chicago Metro has nearly 2 million people of Polish descent, plus many other Central/E Europeans. That has influenced the dialects there). Also used "duh, diss, deez, dem and dose" as in NE cities; ken(can) git (get)as in Midland. Also used to say " acrossa street" for "across the street."

Lived in St Louis for 4 years, but people could tell I was from the Chicago area. Test for St Louis, south side:
four is pronounced far, fourth is farth, and forty, farty; horse is pronounced harse; or is are.

Now in AZ, no one can tell where I'm from, but it's easy to pick up a slight Spanglish or Native American English sound. However, listening to native white Arizonans (which are a small minority, especially over age 40), their speech is not Northern at all - it's Western with Southern Highland influence.

In first quiz I got an answer that I have Midland accent. In THIS quiz result said I'm from Chicago. Neither is right. I'm from Poland, but I don't blame the author of this quiz, because it is made for Americans, not outlanders. :)
