I talk.. normally I guess. But I do have my Boston accent... which I would love to rid myself of.

It's not thick, like I don't sounds stupid.. but it's still bad enough to give away where I live to anyone anywhere.

i'm in indiana but i live near chicago so i have that accent. we tend to draw out our a's in a weird way. so instead of just saying apple i might say aaapple. really drawing out the a. it's really weird. anyone else have that?
p.s. we say pop too.

Uh, I'm pretty sure I have sort of a southern accent.

I say "yall" and things like that - and when I was in Phoenix the past year my friends pointed out when I was talking like an Oklahoma girl. :lol:

OME! How could you call an Australian accent boring?
I love them!
Maybe I'm a freak but I love Australian and Irish accents!

may I ask..

"Michigander"
Is that the official word for it then?
I think I've never put the 'd' in it, no wonder it didn't sound right!

hm...
and as a final note
in Texas we call coke
not soda, pop, or soft drink,
no matter what brand
its a coke
hahaha :lol:

I have a southern accent. It's become more and more pronounced recently, too. I live in Tennessee.

English is not my mother language, but in Ireland most people tell me I sound like a Brit... (not a good thing when in Ireland, huh?! ;))
I don't think I have a distinct British pronounciation, but I do say "cahn't" or "dahnce"... and sometimes, when I talk fast, I do that glottal stop thing (leaving out the "t" in the end of "but" for example), but not on purpose.
Other than that I think I sound quite neutral...

I just have a normal Australian accent I guess. Nothing too special.

Accents are so interesting to me. I'm so facinated by them. Haha.
