Check out your accent!
 

So, do you have a Yankee accent? Check it out here!!




(I scored a 58% Dixie. What a surprise!)

38% (Yankee). A definitive Yankee.

46% (Yankee). Barely into the Yankee category.:D

89% (Dixie). Did you have any Confederate ancestors?

i guess that's what happens when your ancestors are from deeeeeep south alabama and eastern hills kentucky. ;)

My mama's name is Dixie Lee! :) We're both in the UDC, too!

44% yankee-- guess the south has had an effect on me!

53% (Dixie). Barely into the Dixie category.

LOL, I can so tell I'm from Chi-CAH-go. :D

52% Dixie (barely in the Dixie Category) and I'm from Canada!

58% Dixie. I guess due to the time I've spent living in Maryland and Virginia?

60% (Dixie). A definitive Southern score!

69% Dixie, a definitive Southern Score!!

68% (Dixie). A definitive Southern score!

My results:

93% (Dixie). Is General Lee your father?

52% (Dixie). Barely into the Dixie category

I'm from New Yawk w/ peeps in the South. :p :p

This Canadian girl got: 64% (Dixie). A definitive Southern score!

66% Dixie :)

Which could be surprising because, although I've lived in the South my entire life, my whole family is from New England so I talk more like them.

63% (Dixie). A definitive Southern score!

I was born in GA, raised in OH and am at school in Indiana! I just keep moving north! lol!:p

71% Dixie. That's respectable...you should've heard me before I took choir classes to, er, refine my accent. :)

62% (Dixie). A definitive Southern score!

60% (Dixie). A definitive Southern score!

Most of my answers were common to the midwest, so i guess the midwest is more dixie than yankee

Weee! 92% Dixie! (Is General Lee your father?)

You know it!

Pretty good considering that I've only actually spent about 9 years over the course of my life living in the South.

Only 48% Yankee.

I'm sort of annoyed at #15. Bubbler in MA? No way, it's totally an RI thing not a MA thing.

52% (Dixie). Barely into the Dixie category. Hmmmm....a little weak for someone who was born and raised in the south.

What I want to know is...how can you live life WITHOUT a brew thru? Those have got to be the greatest inventions EVER!!! :D

97%: Is General Lee your father?


:D

70% Dixie. I guess living in rural Arkansas for 10 years has taken its toll on me. :D

79% (Dixie). That is a pretty strong Southern score!

No surprise there!

84% Dixie - and if you could hear me talk you would know I have lived in Texas all my life!

58% (Dixie). Barely into the Dixie category.

Which is funny considering I've spent my whole life in Wisconsin and Minnesota and I have NO family in the South; we're all New England and Midwestern.

I had answers all over the place on the quiz though -- some Great Lakes, some Northeast, some Southeast, some West coast.

49% (Yankee). Barely into the Yankee category.

89% Dixie!

um ACTUALLY I've lived in MA my whole life and I've always called it a "bubbler." It's definately a southeastern MA-Cape Cod/ RI thing. I didn't hear "drinking fountain" until I went to a competition in Western/Northern MA and they thought I was nuts for calling it a bubbler.

Me too....my mom must have raised me up a true midwesterner (here in not-so-sunny California!) :D

My results:
53% (Dixie). Barely into the Dixie category.

48% Yankee

63% Dixie, from many years 'behind enemy lines'. But there are occasions where I'll get my New Yawk accent up... :)

50% (Yankee). Barely into the Yankee category.

Wha? I've never been anywhere else!!!!

How bizarre!

My score:

100% (Dixie). Is General Lee your father?


:confused: :confused: :confused:


I was born and raised in Southern California.....my mother was from Gary, Indiana and my father is from Chicago, Illinois! I sound nothing like a "Dixie" Southerner! I am confused!


Then again, San Diego technically *is* the most south and west you can get as far as the US mainland goes.....maybe that's what they mean by "Southern"? Southern California ??

.....Kelly :)

64% (Dixie). A definitive Southern score!

Southern as in SoCal? 'cause that's where I was born and raised!

ha! Great minds think alike! :)


.....Kelly :)

45% (Yankee). Barely into the Yankee category.

I thought it would be at least 50% since I was born and raised in the Northeast.
