So all the rumors are true. I have a northern accent. We were having a discussion last night about the words "don" and "dawn", which to me, are quite distinct from one another and I say them differently. So, I did a little bit of research this morning and found this quiz which I took. And yes, I am an inland northerner.

What American accent do you have?
Your Result: The Inland North
 

You may think you speak "Standard English straight out of the dictionary" but when you step away from the Great Lakes you get asked annoying questions like "Are you from Wisconsin?" or "Are you from Chicago?" Chances are you call carbonated drinks "pop."

The Northeast
