Being from Nebraska, I have the neutral accent.

[jeremy885]

Born and raised around Lawton and have the neutral accent.

[sooner_born_1960]

Western, because I was born and raised in the Oklahoma City area. Or, despite the fact that I was born and raised in the Oklahoma City area.

[yermom]

Western here as well, hmm

[Czar Soonerov]

Northeastern

North Central

What people call the "Minnesota accent." Sounds almost Canadian. You may have even been asked if you were from Canada before.

I'm apparently Canadian, despite being born and raised in Dallas.

[Scott D]

somehow I ended up as Southern on that quiz....

damn you! I have no accent, everyone else does!

[Widescreen]

Hmmm. Never knew that Tulsa is in the west.

[Petro-Sooner]

North central antarticanesse.

I got pick on a lot as a kid.

[King Crimson]

detroit rock city.

wtf?

[OUDoc]

Western

Western is kind of neutral, but not quite since it's still possible to tell where you're from. So you might not actually be from the West (but you probably are). If you really want to sound "neutral," learn how to say "stock" and "stalk" differently.

I do. :confused:

[OmaniacU]

Westurn

[PhxSooner]

Ah. 63% Dixie. Probably from my use of y'all and Coke as a generic drink name.

[soonerbrat]

West

NEUTRAL "You're not Northern, Southern, or Western, you're just plain -American-."


Probably has something to do with growing up in Kansas with a mom from southern Oklahoma and a dad from New Jersey

[PhxSooner]

I was neutral. My mom is from SW OK, and my dad from SW LA. People out here hear the word "y'all" come out of my mouth and ask me if I'm from Texas.:mad: :mad:

[colleyvillesooner]

western

[yermom]

i grew up in Tulsa/Turley and learned to talk from TV (Sesame Street, Electric Company, etc..) and my parents that were both pretty literate

i remember thinking that my great-grandmother talked funny

things like Miamuh and Missouruh :D

[IronSooner]

Western. I really expected neutral..never been told I had any sort of accent. Born and raised in OKC, spent the last 3 in central Illinois. Go figure.

[ChickSoonerFan]

NEUTRAL "You're not Northern, Southern, or Western, you're just plain -American-."




Me too...neutral. But my mom is from Georgia and my dad from Chicago. I guess the two balanced eachother out and now I am just plain old me.

:)

[Mixer!]

neutral, y'all.

[Turd_Ferguson]

I'm neutral I think only because I say the word On like awn, not oyn. The rest of my accent is pure f'n hillbilly.

[Ike]

neutral

[Chuck Bao]

Ah got a southern accent.

[usmc-sooner]

people always ask me what part of the South I'm from or if I'm from Texas. I guess I have an Oklahoma draw. My DI's hated my accent. They said I sounded like some kinda freakin hick.

[FirstandGoal]

Neutral, but I have 2 different ways in which I speak. There is the voice I use for my podcasting, and the everyday voice I use that pretty much gives away the fact that I have been born and raised in Oklahoma.

[TexasLidig8r]

Southern and 80% Dixie.. y'all f'in' hillbillies.

[en4cer]

http://www.youthink.com/quiz_images/full_428371978.jpg

nootral

[silverwheels]

Neutral. People on the Left Coast that I have talked to say that I have a tiny hint of a drawl, and people from Arkiesaw say I have no accent.

[TMcGee86]

Neutral, but then 91% Dixie. :confused:

[Half a Hundred]

Neutral, and I know exactly why. I watched WAY too much TV growing up.

[sanantoniosooner]

I'm to lazy to do the quiz.

Most that have met me will verify that I have an outrageous french accent.

[Vaevictis]

Neutral, mostly because I spent two years living in Ohio when I was a kid.

52% Dixie, apparently.

[SoonerStormchaser]

New England...I wanna go pak the caa in the garaaaaaj.

[soonerboomer93]

neutral and 60% dixie

[olevetonahill]

100 % ****ing hillbilly

[GottaHavePride]

Neutral. And if I'm trying I can sound like damn near whatever the hell I want.

The best trick? I can sound like people from other countries speaking English with an accent. And I mean not like a fake German accent, I can sound like an actual German speaking English with a slight accent.

[OUDoc]

Cool. What is Doleo talking about?

[NormanPride]

Can you sound like Steve Martin from Pink Panther?

[GottaHavePride]

Doc, I understand doleo just fine. ;)

NP, **** no. Peter Sellers is the one and only Inspector Clouseau.

[NormanPride]

:D

[Okla-homey]

If you were born and raised east of I-35 and south of I-40 like moi, you have a delightful redneck accent. I'm proud of it. It declares to the woild, I Be Okie.

[Widescreen]

[OKC-SLC]

Western + 50% (Dixie). Barely into the Dixie category

[sanantoniosooner]

Holy crap.

I took the time to take the test finally and it said I was NEUTRAL.

I'm bilingual.

I speak hick and country. This test is bogus.

[GottaHavePride]

Stinking Kraut. :mad:

If you'd prefer, I'm pretty solid at Spaniard, Aussie, and Brit, too. My Irish and Scottish need work. ;)

[M]

neutral. that's no fun!

[OUHOMER]

neutral, but it sounds like nut shell

[SoonerGirl06]

Hmmm.... I'm apparently "neutral".

But they didn't ask if I sound the same when I'm p*ssed or really excited cuz when that happens, the "Texas Twang" comes out and good Lord is it something!

[VeeJay]

http://www.youthink.com/quiz_images/full_754912005.jpg

[SoonerGirl06]

I'm wondering if we'd all sound the same if we took that test drunk...

[Scott D]

I still find it hilarious that all you people test out as western or neutral..but I live up near Canada and I tested as Southern.

[soonerbrat]

Hmmm.... I'm apparently "neutral".

But they didn't ask if I sound the same when I'm p*ssed or really excited cuz when that happens, the "Texas Twang" comes out and good Lord is it something!


p*issed as in d-runk? or angry?
when i'm drunk or tired, that twang comes out for me....or when I just want it to.

and is that stupid thang saying that st. louis is neutral? because it's not. I was in the car with a real estate agent there who was gonna get on the "farty far" - highway 44

[Scott D]

but brat! I sound like a southerner! ;)

[soonerbrat]

but scott..you ARE a southerner. sort of.

[Scott D]

hehe, not bad for someone who spent a grand total of 3 years in 'southern' states :D

[soonerbrat]

it must have been during very impressionable years

[Scott D]

hmm...8..and 20-21. nah :D

[SoonerJack]

evidently GE's network filter believes that site is forum/bulletin board/gaming/sexual content.

I'll guess at the questions and say that I'm neutra-south-western.

I say y'all, Coke, sack (not bag). Creek, not crick. Ham is one syllable, etc.

[yermom]

hmm...8..and 20-21. nah :D

maybe it's all that Country Grammar you've been listening to

[Scott D]

maybe it's all that Country Grammar you've been listening to

hah...I've been listening to engrish people! :D

[yermom]

i know you are a Nelly fan

[Scott D]

nah not really....it was more of a novelty of someone being from somewhere not called new york, la, or atlanta.

clipse are far better :)

[Rogue]

Western. Growing up in Idaho I would have thought for sure that we talked normal. Now, having been away for many years, I could recognize someone from that part of the world in about 1 sentence. It's like they talk with their teeth clenched.

That's because it's really ****ing cold up there. :)

[GottaHavePride]

Heh. I was in Las Vegas with some friends, and they were all ogling this cick walking in front of us, trying to figure out what South American coutry she was from. I looked at her and said "New Jersey". They asked how I knew, and right about then the girl started swearing at the people she was walking with and I said "Ah. Newark."

[bluedogok]

Mine was neutral, dad grew up in SWOK, mom grew up all over but most in SWOK as well. My parents moved to OKC from Altus when I was 6 months old, so I grew up in OKC.


New England...I wanna go pak the caa in the garaaaaaj.
Isn't that pahk the cahr?

I found a Red Sox t-shirt in Boston that I wanted but they didn't have a large enough size.
It was a Schilling quote: "I go ta tha pahk and play wicked hahd"
