What American accent do you have?
Created by Xavier on Memegen.net

Mid-Atlantic. This is what everyone calls a Philadelphia accent although it's also the accent of south Jersey, Baltimore, and Wilmington. Well, everyone that lives near there, that is. Outsiders can tell you talk differently from them even though they can't tell what your accent is.

Take this quiz now - it's easy!

We're going to start with "cot" and "caught." When you say those words do they sound the same or different?

Same, no wait I mean different, maybe, a little bit different... Same Different

Dead on target, despite my years of living in Boston.

I like this test a lot, it's very accurate, I think. But I can definitely tell if people are from Jersey or Maryland, and I can often tell if they're from Northeast Philly or South Philly. I didn't realize not everyone could.
