You guys are a bunch of prejudiced douche bags... you're not better than anyone because you've got the "smarter" accent.

Variety is the spice of life, you fascist tards.

I live in Washington State and I know when I went to Alaska, everything was mostly the same. In Minnesota on the the other hand, it was different.

I took the quiz and got neutral. I have no problem understanding people with accents though.

I don't think there is a "neutral" accent, just a "standard" set by a certain educated accent, IE, like how High German (the modern standard) is just a northern German dialect.



None.

I'm neutral, apparently. However, I hope the Southern Accent decays and dies.



None.

I'm from milwaukee*. We call it soda, not pop. A bubbler, not a water fountain. Other than that, we are straight.
I despise southern accents. It's just annoying.

No. There's a neutral accent. Why it's from America, and not England, I'll never know.

Accourding to the quiz, I have a North Central accent.

In actuality, it's a very subtle New Zealand.

How is there a "neutral" accent? You pronounce things a certain way that differs from other speakers of your language, that is an accent whether or not a government or official body recognizes it as the official pronunciation.

I do stuff and thingies... Try widening and reducing the number of small nooks and crannies to correct the problem.

I speak neutral English like my German school taught me.

I got Canadian, so the test is probably right.

However, some test questions were very vague. And besides, I don't pronounce it "aboot". You're thinking about the far East Coast. Like Nova Scotia. :P
Nova Scotia and Newfy are side by side. :P

I think we can all agree that Brooklyn English and British English are both abominations.
some british girls sound extremely sexy...
Indeed. Anyone know Eva from Red Alert 3? :D rrrrawwwrr :w00t:

I am actually wondering what accent I have. It should be german accent english but I was told that I sound a little american. That's probably because I (not knowingly) copy the accents I hear in movies. That's why I voted Northern (TV anchor).
You're supposed to take the quiz.

Relatively ancient and inactive

Devilesk phailed.

Actually, it's strange I have a northeastern accent. I learned English in California, and moved to NYC when I was fluent.
