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

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?

I hadn't thought about that one. I think one of the biggest give aways to Texan is how one pronounces "finger, singer," and such.

The sentence structure too ... I'm fixin' to get me a hot dawg ... LOL!

That is more like an additional tense.The immediate future--not the same as "gonna get me a hot dawg."

ummmm.... minor correction.

That would be "I'm *a* fixin' to git me a hot dawg" -- the 'a' is ohhhh so important, as is 'git' (ghi-et) vs. "geh-et".
