    I got the same results as cathyvv (although I spell it Philly) but then that is where I am originally from. Now to test my DH.

    It told me that I was upstate New York with some Illinois thrown in.
    Exactly the two places I lived the longest when I was in the States.
    When I visit my parents, sometimes I shake my head at the way
    people there pronounce some of their words!

    It pegged me in either Minneapolis/St Paul, Grand Rapids, or Rockford IL.

    I grew up in a suburb of Chicago.

    Not sure if people in Rockford sound like Chicagoians.

    Fun test. Mine is Boston, Worcester, Rhode Island. I grew up in Massachusetts so that makes sense.

    Ha, ha. service road and 18 wheeler I learned from my Husband and he's from Wyoming. It said I sounded like someone from Mississippi or Alabama . Not. I'm from Texas! Ya'll does come out at times. and I pronounce Been as been. they didn't give me choice to click on that one. odd. and of course I say Aunt like ant! just like my dictionary tells me to.
