I always said I had no accent

What American accent do you have?

Neutral. Not Northern, Southern, or Western, just American. Your national American identity is more important to you than your local identity, because you don't really have a local identity to begin with.

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

I sound like a neutral midwesterner with a heavy television overlay, according to a man who wrote voice-recognition software. I learned to speak from Lost in Space, Star Trek, Wild Wild West and Gunsmoke. I worked to scrape the Missouri country off my tongue (I have to be very tired to worsh my clothes) and came out sounding like everyone on TV.

I apparently have a Mid-Atlantic accent, despite growing up in Michigan. Perhaps that (and my darker skin and curly dark hair) is why strangers in the Upper Peninsula always asked what country I'm from.
