I don't really think I have an accent. I'm from Michigan. The only places I have really heard accents in the US in some east coast areas and the south. Everyone else sounds the same to me.

You do have an accent, everyone does. You can't really detect your own if you've grown up with it hearing it all the time. but its there... and its watching you....

Well some people seem to have weird accents here. Certain areas do. Did she live in Michigan her whole life?
I've lived in the south for most of my life, I don't think I have a southern accent, but when I lived in maine, kids made fun of me because they thought I talked slow. Which I don't think I do.

We don't really get accents anywhere west of the Ontario-Quebec border here in Canada. An Albertan sounds the Same as an Ontarian, Who sounds the same as BCers. But the accents we do get are weird. Newfie accents are so foreign I've seen them subtitled on TV.
So yeah, when I went down to the states, I was a little surprised to hear all the various accents they have down there.
Some people say I have a slight Jersey accent, whatever that means...I guess they think because I from there, I sound like Tony Soprano or something. I don't sound anything like him.

Ask a British person if you have an accent. Yeah its amazing because yanks seem to think Uk chaps have an accent. Simple fact is ours is very flat, its the yanks who have the accent. Try saying the word Aluminuim and World..... I rest my case. Americans go round the world when they say it......Such strange people.

its kinda like a my mothers my sister type of thing.....he is infering southern people are inbred...i don't agree though i have heard stories of some families in Louisiana....
I don't think i have an accent and I'm from Ontario. I do hate the middle ages accent people use though. Bugs the crap out of me when people say "tis".

I was just having a conversation yesterday with someone who pronounced room as "rum." You can't drink a damn living space (well, some of us could).
Average American accent. I live in the northwest. At least I think its average... I do say "wull" instead of "well" sometimes... DrinkDuff
Yeah Northwesterners don't seem to have much of an accent at all. Boston New york and Jersey all have really strong ones as do the southerners. I live in Oregon btw.

Anyway, I think we need a second opinion, because we both live in the northwest after all so we can hardly trust our own judgement on the issue.... :P
I have a mix of new york, southern and midwestern accents. Not because I've been around the US, but because I've picked up pronunciations from people i know.
