Midwestern English
Midwestern English is a regional variety of American English spoken mainly in the Midwest. It features clear, neutral pronunciation with some distinct vowel sounds and phrases unique to the area. The accent often lacks the strong regional quirks found elsewhere in the U.S., making it sound relatively Standard American. Vocabulary and expressions are also typical of everyday speech, sometimes including local terms. This dialect reflects the Midwest's diverse history and cultural influences, providing a familiar, approachable way of speaking that many Americans recognize and appreciate.
