It's not an accent per se. They should've said dialect instead of accent.

Lmfao that shit said I have a Canadian accent.

That's weird cause I got Western

Western is kind of neutral, but not quite since it`s still possible to tell where you`re from. So you might not actually be from the West (but you probably are). If you really want to sound "neutral," learn how to say "stock" and "stalk" differently.

@Noir ain't that the same thing?

Technically, no. Your dialect is how you use words. For example, in California, people say, "yous", but in the Southern states, people say, y'all". Another example, people in the Midwest say, " pop", the south says, "coke", and the west says, " soda".

An accent is how a person pronounce words according to their dialect.

Dialect is based on the descriptive grammar rules and accents are based on verbal speech pattern and pallette placement.

Gotcha..well they both kinda cover both because they ask about pronunciation and also word usage

 

[Shizlansky]

Damn everybody getting neutral? If you're interested there's another one that's a little bit more thorough, 25 questions.

Raised in NYC so spot on

Which American accent do you have?



Northeastern 

This could either mean an r-less NYC or Providence accent or one from Jersey which doesn't sound the same. Just because you got this result doesn't mean you don`t pronounce R's.(People in Jersey don`t call their state "Joisey" in real life)
