Well mine said Midlands which is sort of funny because my accent is really much more southern than that. However, my mother and her family is from Iowa and Nebraska, so I have had exposure to it. I think sylables would have been a good thing to have in, and slang, but I also think that vowel length would have too. Dawn and Don sound different to me when I say it because I take longer to say Dawn. And Dog should be said with the same vowel pot, not awww, no matter what my fellow southerners might say. ;) Of course I wonder how much influence my study of languages, and my love of amature theatre plays on my accent. I'm sure I'm a veritable mix of different influences between family friends, education, and now living in San Diego.
