A little bit of Yankee and a little bit of southern peppered with sniglets of my own. I do know when to use you, y'all, and all y'all.

I was born and reared in the Florida panhandle as had most of my ancestors going back to the 1700s.

I remember something odd. When I lived in Western Kansas, people were constantly asking if I was from Texas.

General American English. Despite being a Hoosier, I am told I speak without a discernable accent.
