I confuzzled another accent quiz [g]. Actually, the answer is accurate, right up till it says I don't have a local identity. Anyone who knows me knows that I am about as much of a Pacific Northwesterner as it is possible to be. But I didn't move here till 18 years ago, so my accent, such as it is, has been -- refined, that's it -- by being raised by two Southerners while living in California and Colorado, then stints in Oregon, Colorado again, Indiana, Ohio, Montana, and Washington state.

What American accent do you have?

Neutral. Not Northern, Southern, or Western, just American. Your national American identity is more important to you than your local identity, because you don't really have a local identity to begin with.

Take this quiz now - it's easy!
We're going to start with "cot" and "caught." When you say those words do they sound the same or different?
