How American is Your English?

________________________________________________________________________________________


Your English is Totally Americanized

No doubt about it, you're a total red blooded American. Or at least you talk like one.

You probably learned your English in the good ole USA, and no one would dare mistake you for a Brit.

As far as you're concerned, "lift" is a verb. And you're not even sure what "bullocks" means.

And someone couldn't pay you enough to eat a courgette. That just sounds like a fancy french shoe to you!



And I'm not an American. Recently, a foreigner from France who speaks with a noticeable Russian accent, but is actually a Romanian by birth (weird, huh? :p) told me that I have an American accent when speaking English, and thought that I actually lived there for awhile, even though I've never been to US.

I blame American movies. :p
 
Your English is Unamericanized

You may speak English, but no one would mistake you for an American.
In fact, your English has a distinctly British feel, and it's likely that there is at least some UK influence in how you talk.

You probably think American English sounds awfully silly. What's up with calling that purple vegetable an eggplant?
And as far as you're concerned, most people are missing some vowels with their English spelling!



thank fuck for that lol
 
Your English is Somewhat Americanized

Hmmm... the way you speak English is very interesting. You sound like someone who grew up everywhere!

There is definitely an American influence on how you speak, but that may be just from television and movies.

It's hard to predict how you'll express yourself with language. You have a rich vocabulary.

If there's one thing for sure, it's that your way of speaking English is distinctly you.

This is very spot on. Being a military brat, I have lived in many states. The longest stay was in Mississippi. It was there that I picked up my southern accent and still have it. It's funny because I now live in the North and get teased a lot about having a southern accent. :oops:
 
An American. Born in US. Grew up in US. Lives in US. Speaks only somewhat American English. Amazing. :p
