Too many people reading the article and trying to take the test I guess.

I speak SlimPickenese, sorta the way Robert Duvall has learned to talk. It comes naturally to us in rural AZ.

I’m a native Californian, but the last time I took one of these linguistic tests, it pegged me in the dead center of the Midwest. Probably a remnant of my Army brat upbringing.

The map shows that the New Orleans “Yat” accent is similar to other southern dialects. IT IS NOT. It’s closer to a Brooklyn accent. And the Cajun dialect is also a different story!

I was born of Midwestern parents in the Midwest but moved to New England at six months of age. I am told no one can place my accent. No one has no accent but I think I come close to standard American.

My Mother grew up in the Carolinas, splitting her time between Easley, SC and Jeter Mountain(near Hendersonville) NC, but she lived a good portion of her life on the Mississippi Gulf Coast. Consequently, you knew she sure wasn’t from up North, but her Southern accent was hard to pin down. Except when she would visit relatives in the Carolinas. Then she would re-charge her accent and it would last a good two-three weeks before settling back to normal.
