I have a southern English accent, which is the British equivalent to a non-accent, although I swing right up the social scale when I'm pissed off (my education was a damn sight posher than my family background so I have access to different registers). I'm also enough of a language geek to be weirdly entertained by taking this sort of test.

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.

Hehehehe. I got the "North Central" or Minnesota accent. It says Outsiders probably mistake you for a Canadian a lot. I hope so, because, er, I am one. :-D
