63% (Dixie). A definitive Southern score!

Funny. I grew up (and still live in during the summer) in Southern Illinois near St. Louis, yet still speak with a Southern accent! I guess we really aren't true Illinoisans!

Southern Illinois is Dixie at the very tip. Many of the people there did fight on the Dixie side of the war, even though they were in a free state.

Rather interesting test:
44% (Yankee). Barely into the Yankee category.

I say pee-can.

I use puh cohn (rhymes with John)

Here, Duane is one syllable dwayne

One of my pet peeves, as an Italian is how that is pronounced. It's not Eye Talian, it's It (rhymes with sit) alian. I've never heard someone say "Eye taly" for the country!

This thread reminds me of the SNL skit with Christopher Walken singing "You say potato..." and saying the words the same everytime!
