So I took an online quiz to see if I have an accent.
My results: I speak with "An Inland North" accent.
Here is the explanation: You may think that you speak "Standard English straight out of the dictionary" but when you step away from the Great Lakes you get asked annoying questions like "Are you from Wisconsin?" or "Are you from Chicago?" Chances are you call carbonated drinks "pop".
The results were dead on. Having travelled to some states out of the Great Lakes region, I have been asked the Chicago question and I do call Diet Coke, pop.
Go try it for yourself. (I hope that I copied the link correctly).
