I'm from WI and went to Japan with the JET Program. On our first day of training, there I was- surrounded by native speakers of English from around the world- and when I asked someone to hand me my bag, only the woman from MN knew what I was talking about.

Your Appalachian accent is actually great compared to the rest lol. Those of us from Appalachia always appreciate when people show love for the native accent. Hopefully one day the stigma against that accent can go away and young people won't feel the need to lose their accent to be taken seriously in life.

I grew up in Minnesota and I have to say you did pretty good!!
Also, I want to share this story: I donât have a very strong accent. Since moving away from MN, most people donât notice, and if they do, the best guess anyone has is Midwest. Back in 2018, I was working at a cafe in Seattle when a group of Indian women walked in. I asked one lady for order and she asked âAre you from Minnesota?â I was taken aback! I never had someone be so direct, let alone right. Turns out she had a coworker from Minnesota who lives in Delhi and she just happened to be in Seattle on vacation!
I still canât believe the one and only person to ever correctly guess my accent was from half way across the world! đ

Father is from Barbados and mother is from North Carolina. I was raised in New York. My southern relatives tease me about my West Indian accent and my West Indian family tease me about my southern accent . I think I sound like a New Yorker.
A former boss hired a guy from China who had a thick accent. I was the only one who understood him . My boss took me aside one day and asked me how I was able to understand him so easily . I told him â Mom is from down south , dad is from the islands and I grew up in a Hispanic neighborhoodâ ( Iâm not Hispanic) â You think one more accent is gonna bother me!â

Chuck Yeager is the reason so many pilots affect a slight West Virginia accent when talking to the passengers. His stoic and calming tone in the face of death became iconic.

I grew up in the middle of Pa, and went to school in Philly. You nailed the Philly accent and how diverse the accents of Pa are. Go across the river from Philly to South NJ and check out how the accent changes again

Love this video... I'm from Pittsburgh... I try to stray away from Pittsburghese, but being a lifetime Yinzer it slips out from time to time...đ¤Ł

I get so much shit for saying âbaygâ as a person from Wisconsin I never knew that other people pronounce the word different

I have a Welsh friend, and I think I blew his mind by demonstrating four or five different southern accents.
You actually did pretty well on the accents you selected, so well done!

Writing from northern Maine: parts of the state were settled by people who's first language was French, and that accent is still frequently heard on the streets. There are parts, however, that were settled by other groups: not far away from my home town is a group of Swedish decendants, and when I visited Minnesota a few years ago, they sounded very similar!

This is a great video. He actually avoided all of the best known accents (besides Bostonian) and brought up some accents a lot of people don't know about. Appalachian (what he called Southern WV) is a good one that isn't quite the same as a Southern accent and was heavily influenced by Scots-Irish immigrants. And what he called a "Pittsburgh accent" which actually is common in eastern Ohio, Western PA and the panhandle of WV (heavily influenced by German migrants). I've lived all over the US, and this is really the tip of the iceberg when it comes to accents in this country. I spent my childhood moving from place to place as a military kid and it was very apparent to me how the way people talked changed from place to place. And you had to learn really quickly to adopt the same accent as the kids at school to avoid...problems.

He did much better with the accents than I was expecting

The reason why states can have such varying accents is that their compositions are semi-arbitrary. Between Pittsburgh and Philadelphia for example is hundreds of miles, a plateau, and a large mountain range

The Upper Midwest accent is actually really interesting because it is going through a vowel shift. That is why our vowels sound strange to other people. From Wikipedia: 'This change pattern is characterized by the longer and lower vowels moving forward and upward, while the shorter vowels move downward and backward.'

I was born and spent the first 8 years of my life in a southern Pittsburgh suburb, the following ten years in north western Pennsylvania. My first career was as a radio DJ during which, as you can imagine, I had to read a LOT of copy and critically listen my recorded voice. I discovered I had a very difficult time properly enunciating the L sound, especially when it fell in the middle of words. I really struggled with it and have always thought it was a minor speech impediment. However your observations on the "Pittsburgh accent" puts what I've always thought to be a personal problem into a whole new light. Thanks!

In certain hollars in Appalachia the accent is a mix to different degrees, Scots, Irish, English and a bit of German. They range from a soft to a quicker more nasal accent

Being from western Pennsylvania myself, I absolutely love that "Pittsburghese" made the top 5

The Upper Midwest accent you describe might fall under the umbrella of the Great Lakes accent (or at least Great Lakes vowel-pronunciation pattern), which you can detect in western New York (but not eastern NY), the northern parts of Ohio, Indiana, and Illinois (but not the southern parts), then on west of the Great Lakes into Wisconsin, Minnesota, eastern ND and eastern SD. There is a theory that this pattern of pronunciation began with the construction of the Erie Canal, which involved a multi-ethnic, multi-linguistic population of laborers, who did NOT have a common way of speaking English, but whose children forged this new American English accent and carried it with them throughout the Great Lakes region.

Iâm from California but lived in Alabama during college. At first I couldnât make sense of much, but after a couple of years I got good at hearing the different southern accents.
Even here in California, you used to be able to hear the difference between NorCal and SoCal but that was mostly in word choice. But at the end, I generally can tell when people arenât from California because of nuances in mannerisms, phrasing, and accent.
Regional accents are fun to listen to.

My neighborhood in Boston had five regional accents alone. You can tell which street people lived on by their accent.
