| I asked a few folks from Texas and Boston if I had one or if they viewed the west coast as having an accent. They said no. I have noticed that there are a few words that folks in the northwest will have their own spin on, but for the most part nothing. |

I never really noticed this till a couple years ago when others pointed it out, but depending on what I am saying, I might sound like I grew up in a different region of the US. Do any of you exhibit similar behavior? |
so you don't have any trace of a Russian accent? were you born in America? |

Nope. And did you read my posts? I said, I lived in the same place for the first 20 years of my life, and moved to SoCal 5 years ago. |

| It seems that some of you have confused what I am referring to. I am saying that do you say things as if you were from a different area than you are, while for the most part living all your life in the same area or same accent regions. Like I have lived in California my whole life, but say somethings the way someone from Wisconsin would. Or the way I say call lately has been like a New Yorker. |
