WOW your that close to me Raw? I'm from Rockaway township Morris county.
Damn,, im a few minutes from frenchtown... or a few from Phillipsburg if that helps
whats the chances of that
Definetly not California and Massachusettes or Alabama. I would say people from Chicago and Philadelphia, because they don't really have one in particular that you can place in any one state. Theirs is unique. New Yorker accents can sometimes drive you up the wall, but some street accents are okay.
I'm from Vermont, and ours is very similar to the Minnesotan accent. It's a combo of redneck (not country) and Canadian.
Vermonthats.com
The guy at that site is perfect example of a hick Vermonter.
There is no one Massachusetts accent. People from the rural western part of the state sound like upstate New York. The urban eastern part of the state (Greater Boston)is where you hear the classic Boston Accent. A Rhode Island Accent, located just 40 miles south of Boston, is a mix of a Boston and NY/Northern Jersey Accent. With all due respect, Philadelphia has an accent. It's completely different from NY or Boston. I find Boston and Ny accents harsh and grating and I have one.I like many southern accents, more so on woman than men, except the texas drawl. Texas is the NY of the south, with a harsh accent to go along with it. Midwest accents grate on me more than any other. West Coast accents are probably the smoothest and easiest to listen to. Smooth and muted.
You all sound the same
My theory is when the British and Spaniards came over to America to colonize it the classic english accent was combined with the American Indian's accent and that's how Americans got their general sound today.
If you listen to people of native american blood they speak very similarly to us. It's their natural accent.
Californians have an accent, like, no way!!
NEW YORK?????? NEW YORK HAS THE WORST ACCENT IN HUMAN HISTORY. HAHA WHAT A JOKE!
Yeah, that's why NEW YORK is beating the crap out of all the other choices.
NY accents rule
SFlibra- i know right lol
New York sucks!
Im from central Jersey so I have a mixture of South and North New Jersey. California accents aren't really different from New Jersey accents. When a woman from New York or Boston opens her mouth she sounds like a dog. I agree with Danni_dysfunk about his theory of Native Americans and American accents. They do sound similar and I've always wondered about that.
Aaieet, naew!
Aa dem uvva accentd cin byet da dus', cus am up in hea, an itz all 'bout DC, ya herd me? we be talkin like no uva, n' no matta wat nobauy say, we know DC is bong! YEA!
what?
To USrocks- I'm from NY, and not all of us talk with an accent. Ive been to NJ, and I havent come across anyone with an accent. Dont insult NY just because you THINK your state is better, cause its not. Its those Southern accents that suck ass. "yall wanna eat?????" =P
btw, yes I have the NY accent.
Bostonians paak the caa in th yaad.
Ever notice how lots of people in New Orleans have kind of a New Yorkish kind of accent-weird.
Talked to some guys from Baton Rouge once-cool.
ew no way, the people in New Orleans have that really annoying Southern accent.
NYRANGERSFAN New York has the worst acceent in the Country. Anyone from anywhere in the country would agree. The only reason why they won this ballot is because there are a lot of them.
USrocks-
uh no. we dont. its the southern ones like AL,TX,SC,GA,VA, and LA(not the city in cali. the state) etc.. your from central Jersey? you live right by us! so deal. and how do you know how many NYers are here huh?
SOUTHERN ACCENTS GIVE ME HEADACHES.
i dont know why my comment didnt show.. but i said.. I like the NY accent.. i kinda wanted to have one cause i think its kinda cute
There are a couple different Southern accents. The two main ones are rhotic and non-rhotic. What this means is one pronounces the final "r" sound in a word like "Govenor," and the other one doesn't as in "Govenah." Those Southern folk who live closest to the sea in the low country where most people's ancestry is from England would say "govnah." Meanwhile those in the mountainous up-country and hilly piedmont regions are largely descended from Scots-Irish (Northern Irish Protestants of largely Scotish lowland descent) settlers, and they would pronounce the final "r" sound in govenor.
northerners say to southerners: yous is moidering the english laing-u-age.

I'm from Missouri and we don't hardly have an accent at all!! My favorite accent of all time is glasweign, the best scotish accent ever!!!!!
you usually don't hear your own accent because you hear people with it all the time. But if you go out of state, people will notice. Haha personally I like New York accents the best. To them, they don't have accents, unless its Upstate and Brooklyn. They have two totally different dialects.
I mean they don't hear their accents** sorry.
