I'm Fixin' to Say Y'all!

Ok. I took the test. And it's funny because even though I know the correct way to say the words and I do say them correctly, but apparently some people believe I lost that accent and have adopted the 'lazy southern accent'. Fine whatever. I still say the words on the test the right way. I don't extend any syllables or drag them out. I don't put a "twang" on anything. But I was brought up in the north. In the south part of Jersey and in the heart of Philly to be exact. Funny. I've also lived in Baltimore for seven years. Close to East Bawmer to be exact (that's East Baltimore in Baltimorese). And no I didn't speak like them (down the ocean hon [o you need to really drag that O as in o0o0oo-shun} and Dundawk, ew I still cringe).

How do y'all speak! C'mon fair LL, I am so curious to see what it says for you haha.

What American accent do you have?
Your Result: Philadelphia

Your accent is as Philadelphian as a cheesesteak! If you're not from Philadelphia, then you're from someplace near there like south Jersey, Baltimore, or Wilmington. if you've ever journeyed to some far off place where people don't know that Philly has an accent, someone may have thought you talked a little weird even though they didn't have a clue what accent it was they heard.
