Accent

People never seem to know what my accent is. When I lived in Baltimore, people thought I sounded Canadian, when I was in Michigan, people thought I was from Boston.

Being that I'm engaged to a linguist, I get the occasional test like this (although Lauren doesn't think much of it). Turns out I sound like I could be from anywhere.....

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.
