Sorry, this GeoCities site is currently unavailable.

The GeoCities web site you were trying to view has temporarily exceeded its data transfer limit. Please try again later.

There are two samples up now. Both are hearable.

You have a very slight southern accent.

I'm from the southern part of Maryland, so maybe that's why.


But you have no accent that I can detect.

Perhaps I'm really tone deaf.

But you have no accent.

Where would you think I was from based on my accent?

I'd say you were based in the midwest-ish area.
I'd say your accent fit's in Indiana quite well.

Slight southern accent, most noticeable on your long vowels.

Your modulation is a little "off." But not much.

I'm told I actually sound very Mid-Western now, the only thing that separates me is the regionalisms I picked up as a child in Maryland and the fact that I learned how to speak English mostly from books.

And thusly, my accent after nearly a year here in beautiful A2.

This is also a plea to anyone who might be able to help my friend.

She doesn't sound like she's from Indiana at all! I thought she sounded more Alabama-ish. I know when I talk, people seem to think I'm from California...

There is some difference in there lol

Very Mid-Western with just a hint of Sountern in you. Not bad. It could be worse. You could have a Jersey accent and live in Florida

Did you hear the later one? I used to live in an icky Southern state. Hence the icky Southern accent. And I know I talk funny. That's not all accent. That's partly my crappy voice. I hate myself right now.

Heh, it's been worse. A lot worse. I came here with a TWANG.

Maryland is not that bad of a Southern accent unless you are by the Appalachians. Then it is just in your face obivious. It is a little twangy, but not as bad as some other places...like where I was born ^^

Yeah, I'm from Texas and here in Indiana (moved here ten years ago), people say I either have a really thick accent or no accent at all. Maybe you do the same thing?
