Do you have an accent?

Re: Do you have an accent?

    Would you say your accent resembles that of PA, NY or WV? A "european" accent covers a lot of ground but maybe something about your vowels makes you sound foreign...  What part of PA were you raised in?

    An hour outside of Pittsburgh. I sometimes sound like my father from NY when I get worked up (so I've been told by those who know him). Any time someone says I sound European though I think about how ridiculous a statement that is. There are how many countries in Europe with how many dialects? Hence why I have no idea what I sound like...

  • I have a very noticeable TX twang. I'm proud of it. :-)

    I have always been bummed by the fact that I have no accent. Though when I went to grad school in the Midwest, they all loved to laugh when I said "wicked"...I don't think I actually have any sort of accent.

    When I was a kid, we went to visit my cousins in TN, and I said something was wicked whatever. They had NO IDEA what I was talking about. And I had no idea that it was strictly a New England thing.

    I grew up in western MA, so no real accent. Someone once told me I have a "CT accent," because my Os sound like As. The funny thing is the new sideline reporter for the Red Sox games is from CT, and I picked it up on her trying to cover up her CT accent in about 2.2 seconds, heh.

  • I'm from the UK. You all have accents. I don't Stick out tongue
