What Kind of American English Do You Speak

Was supposed to work...got canceled...*sigh*...guess i'll just take a quiz (yawn ;).  Found this over at Deb's Frosty Thoughts.

What Kind of American English Do You Speak?


Your Linguistic Profile:

60% General American English (I must have lived too much in the mid-west, i.e. OK)

25% Dixie  (is that all...I think I've been too long gone from Texas)

5% Midwestern

5% Upper Midwestern

5% Yankee (really?!)

My gosh, you are the first person's journal I've read that had a percent for Midwestern; most of them have been 0%.

I was 70% General American; can't remember the others.

Have you visited Charley's, Courage, journal?
