People occasionally ask me why I don't speak with a Southern accent. I don't know; I just don't. I just took a quiz, and it could be that I'm taking on a bit of a New Orleans accent--a unique sounding speech that is vaguely similar to New York-speak:

Chances are, if you are from New York City (and not those other places) people would probably be able to tell if they actually heard you speak. | |

I'm a west coast girl, but the test indicated a mid-western accent. Maybe I have watched Fargo one too many times.
Where y'at, Randy? You'll be a true New Orleanian when ya start talking about goin' ta make groceries.
