Yes, I don't think any other part of the US say's "Yins" (As in "Yins kids get away from that!")
-
I don't have an accent, but I suppose the Brits and Americans would disagree.
-
Only when I want it to.
-
Yes!
-
absolutely... I was in California and two women came up to me and said "are you from NY?" I said "yes" They said "Staten Island, Right?" I was like "holy crap"
-
No, it gives a pretty good hint to where I'm from, though.
-
Yes!
-
Yes, I think so.
-
Ya the Irish accent is quite distinctive!
-
In the states it's only a give away to the southerners...but even then they just guess "up north" lol Outside the states, everyone pretty much recognizes our American twang.

I've been told I type with a Texas accent
-
For sure. I sound like a hick.
-
No. Although I'm from Virginia, I'm from the DC area. We have a "mid-western" accent -- the standard American sound. I wish I had a Southern accent. I think it's sexy.

People always say that they find it odd that I do not have a New Yawk accent. They ask me why, but I really don't have an answer. It comes out when I pronounce certain words, like cawfee, daw, cah, etc. but not overwhelmingly. I think some people over-exaggerate their accents, personally.

The second I open my mouth, people know exactly what area I am from... Little side story, I was in Florida and I went into a sunglasses store. The clerk said "Hello How are you?" I answered simply "Fine thanks, yourself?" He goes "New Yorker huh?"... I told him he was wrong I was from Kentucky. =)
-
Nope, not really.
-
Well I don't really have an accent. I suppose it might give away that I'm not from Britain.....
-
No. I don't have one.
-
I try to cover it up as well as I can but when I talk fast or when I am upset/ mad my german accent comes out without a doubt! But the funny thing is for some reason I've been asked quite a few times if I'm from Mississippi...LMAO
-
No never everyone thinks i'm from the country but i'm a city girl all over :)

There's a test you can take (If you live in the US) that will tell you what kind of accent you have. Apparently I am neutral. I'll see if I can find the test. Edit: http://www.gotoquiz.com/what_american_accent_do_you_have
