Due to the popularity of the Accent Quiz I posted a few weeks ago which received over 1400 hits, I decided to look for another fun quiz and found a good one. This one is called “Are You a Yankee or a Rebel?” This quiz is a little bit longer, but I think it asks some really good questions that everyone will enjoy. Check it out and take the test! I would enjoy knowing the results of your test.
I was firmly placed into the Rebel category (62%). My wife was a Yankee by a fair margin. For us, the accuracy of this test seems pretty good. I grew up in Texas and my wife is a Jersey girl.
Anyhow, when you have a few minutes, take the test and have fun with it!
Most people who don’t live in New England, the South, or the Midwest will tell you they don’t have any type of accent. However, as a person who has lived in many different areas of the United States, I can attest that this simply isn’t true. There are many, many regions in the US that have accents; whether the folks who live there will readily admit it or not is a different story!
This “Accent Test” is a fun and fairly accurate quiz. I’d encourage you to take the test and let us know if it was accurate for you. Have fun with it! In the coming months, I hope to explore a little bit more in-depth some of the regional colloquialisms that I have noticed while traveling or living in various areas of the United States. Our spoken language is quirky and always interesting!
