What American Accent Do You Actually Have?

America is such a rich, diverse melting pot that each region has its own distinct accent and even dialect. While some people might be embarrassed by their accent, it can actually say a lot about your personality and reflect on how you grew up. Accents can be comforting and keep you tied to your roots. Do you have a Southern drawl, which evokes images of cowboys and rodeos? Or a New England quip, which brings up thoughts of rocky coastlines, lobsters, and stunning lighthouses? Do you have the laid-back accent of a true Californian? Or are you more inclined to say the phrase “you betcha” like a bonafide Minnesotan?
