As an Australian this was interesting.
Got about the same as a South African.
Same here, bru.
New England English is more similar to British English (at least in comparison to most US English), so it makes sense it would be the closest to Australian or South African English. Like they still use the word “carriage” commonly
As a Canadian, I feel like it was pretty on par for me lol 53% Minnesota
my early childhood was spent south of winnipeg, so this tracks 100%. am a native-born minnesotan:
I’m norwegian and got the complete opposite from the map of americans who actually originate from my country, lol.
I’m also Norwegian and got a very similar map, though with more emphasis on a New York dialect. I’m guessing it has to do with our English being heavily influenced by popular media, in which the midwest might have less vocal presence.
apparently norwegians are just more american than swedes in general
This is so weird, how is it even possible to talk like a New Yorker, Californian, and Floridian all at once?! No Americans got anything close to this.
I don’t want to dox myself, but it definitely guessed the exact city I live in. I will not answer further questions.
Same, and it’s not a big city either. There’s one thing I say that’s a dead giveaway.
Yup. Within a 20-30 minute drive anyways. And I’ve lived in a different state for about 20 years. That’s incredible.
Apparently this is the “Vermont” accent map. Live in the Great Lakes region, so ok.it’s like how magenta is “minus green”, vermont is “minus louisiana”
Interesting
My answers, unshockingly, reflected my region, but this question made me laugh pretty good. I dont know why lol “um akshully, Icing and frosting are different”. This was my answer anyway
I was disappointed by a lack of option for “Icing is what you get when someone gives you a proper cake from a bakery, frosting comes out of a Betty Crocker jar forgotten in the back of a cabinet when someone has made a boxed cake.” for this one.
Philadelphian who has also lived in Florida. This worked better than I expected, given my accent can be eclectic.
It do be accurate
Did you have the “roof, room, broom, root aren’t pronounced the same” giveaway? Also firefly, pop, sunshower, and freeway is faster than highway.
Grew up in Philly, but it guessed Delaware, so super close. But it did say my next closest city was Philadelphia. It’s interesting because I went to school for radio and spent a ton of time working on my diction and pronunciation, and yet it was the little things I never would have realized I say that still got these results spot on.
‘Roof, room, broom, and root aren’t all pronounced the same’ was enough to know I’m from Minnesota lol
49% Kentucky
I have never lived here, but I do have family there.
I’m from South Africa but don’t speak in a very stereotypical South African accent, and I got “Massachusetts”.
Despite me not being from the US, it was still as accurate as it could possibly be. I’m on Vancouver Island, nestled right in that notch in the northwestern corner of Washington.
Got me pretty good. I am a little surprised my biggest giveaways were word choice not pronunciation, but I was only 56% similar (which was also weird) so i guess there weren’t too many to choose from. I was also about as similar to San Francisico and LA as I was to Salt Lake City UT, did not realize those cities spoke so similarly.
It missed by a couple of states, but it’s close-ish. Some of those questions are wild, like whatever bullshit word people use for lighting bugs or fireflies that is neither of those two. Sambo niggles or some such a thing.
Edit: Peenie Wallies? Just call them double dick bugs 😆
