Has anyone done the British-Irish dialect quiz?

Everyone on Twitter seems to be getting really accurate answers but it put me firmly South West & I've only been there twice! I can only think my mix of growing up in one part of the country with parents from another confused it...

Yes got me accurately to city.

Not too bad for me, it put Southend, I'm London.

The main hotspot includes where I was raised. There are 4 lesser hotspots. I have lived/worked in 3 of them. That's pretty impressive.

Accurate for me but the question on mom/mommy narrows it down for me as that makes it West Midlands on it's own.

Luton for me. I lived near there for several years but from Manchester originally.

I'm most similar to two areas where I have never been or lived and have no family from. Therefore I call cobblers!

Accurate: Definitely not from around here are you? Your answers were closer to the average person outside of Ireland and Britain than anywhere inside it.

Didn't work for me at all?

Showed me loads of different maps for different answers but didn't place "me" as being anywhere

They got the country right but not the area - it placed me in an area with a strong regional accent I definitely do not have

Put me as very south east... born and raised in Devon, although people often say I sound too ‘posh’ to be local!

Put me in the south west which is more or less correct as I'm Cornish and have a Cornish accent

Yeah it gets that I grew up in North Wales but also that I was born in a far away English place, v impressive

Accurate both for where I was born and also where my family originally came from!

Absolutely accurate to where I was raised, the town it named is 8 miles from where I lived aged 2-22.

It seems to have no idea where I'm from which is somewhat unsurprising as I'm a bit of a heinz beans

I'm amazed at how accurate it was - showed Limerick, where I grew up, and Dublin where I've lived most of my adult life.

Didn't get me but my area has a bit of a weird accent it being at the point where Essex meets NE London, but posh-ish (and I went to a posh school). Plus one parent is foreign which probably influences my idiolect.

Spot on...to the right part of the right county.

Place marking as I can't do the quiz on my phone.

Fairly accurate, roughly the area I grew up in but strongly the area I went to university in, which is around an hour away from my hometown

Suggested Cambridge or Bournemouth.

I have spent 30 of the last 34 years in south London. So not that accurate for me!

Cambridge/Norfolk mostly on my map which is odd as that,'s where my folks are from but I have never lived!

I guess Scottish Highlands-Bristol-Lincoln-Kebt is too mixed an upbringing to pinpoint an accent!

I have soft southern vowels but a very flat boring voice, no juice!

Scouser through and through and it got it spot on!

Fairly accurate for me but only really based on two words from all those questions - mardy and beck

I'd be really curious to see if it can guess mine. I collect and use dialects a lot and have no accent to speak of. Just loads a blank page though.
