    Judging by how you talk you are probably from north Jersey, New York City, Connecticut or Rhode Island. Chances are, if you are from New York City (and not those other places) people would probably be able to tell if they actually heard you speak.

    Your Result: The Midland


    "You have a Midland accent" is just another way of saying "you don't have an accent." You probably are from the Midland (Pennsylvania, southern Ohio, southern Indiana, southern Illinois, and Missouri) but then for all we know you could be from Florida or Charleston or one of those big southern cities like Atlanta or Dallas. You have a good voice for TV and radio.

    Now I think that Boston is the real England.

    У меня слово в слово такая же хрень.
    Please, correct my mistakes, except for the cases I misspell something on purpose!

    "The North East."

    A direction, I assume, rather than a position.

    Похоже, северо-восток и Бостон заполонили наши соотечественники.

    North East - I think, it's because we have been tAUght (not [tot] ) British variant here in schools and universities, wich is closer to NE American accent.
