"You have an accent most closely matching that of San Carlos, California... more than likely the White Oaks section, maybe northern Redwood City (Edgewood Park area)."
I'm actually from right outside of Washington, DC, so the quiz got it pretty wrong. But the questions did make me think. Do I say "pen" and "pin" the same? No. Do I say "cot" and "caught" the same? Yes. I'm assuming that DC accents are pretty similar to the accents in San Carlos, California if the quiz is at least somewhat accurate. I thought it was too short to really try to guess where I'm from. Also, I didn't know there was a difference between accents in men and women.
Hopefully this means I will blend in well in California!
