    People ask if I'm from Boston......No, I'm not from New England, I'm from Old England...the original, but what the hey, it's a melting pot.

    But I think the question should be about United States accents, America is a big place and the US is just a small piece of it.

    here's a so-called slightly revised quiz by the same author.

    What American accent do you really have?

    my result: North-Central

    I can't say that this ahhthore doesn't need a nyew lahne of worhk. what a waste of effort.

    Survey says, Northeast, but went on to tell me people think I'm from north Jersey, Connecticut or Rhode Island. I beg your pardon.

    Back East they refer to them as Expressways or Turnpikes. But yeah, they don't call the I-75 "the75".

    Oh, and it said I was from Inland North. No surprise as I was born and raised in the central part of the LP Michigan. I don't know if any of you ever noticed an accent or not, you've never said , I don't think I have one.
