I actually have the most neutral american accent possible (from the New Haven area). Supposedly this is where actors come to perfect their neutral accent.

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."

Your accent is the lowest common denominator of American speech. Unless you're a SoCal surfer, no one thinks you have an accent. And really, you may not even be from the West at all, you could easily be from Florida or one of those big Southern cities like Dallas or Atlanta.

idk i heard NW people have the most neutral??

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.

lol what i live in new york

It varies between those two because of the "horrible" question. I use the sounds from "whore" and "hot" interchangeably with "horrible". The one on the left is hot, right is whore. I suppose I use the sound from whore a little more frequently.
