My "Linguistic Profile"

Published on April 19, 2005 By PJ_ In Misc

Well, I found this slightly interesting:

Your Linguistic Profile:

65% General American English

20% Yankee

5% Dixie

5% Upper Midwestern

0% Midwestern

What Kind of American English Do You Speak?

I wonder what the Yankee terms I use are. And I've never been to Dixie or the upper midwest. The test can't be very accurate, since I only got a total of 95%. (I never heard an easy class called a "crisp course," a "gut," or a "blow off" before. I might have called it an "Easy A" if I was asked.)
