Yankee or Dixie?

Are you Yankee or Dixie? (Linguistically-speaking, that is.) I actually came out 58% Dixie. That’s so weird. I would’ve guessed I’d be Yankee all the way. I think I’ve spent too much time overseas. (Link courtesy of Max.)

  1. How do you like that–born, raised and lived 29 years in Ohio and only 50% Yankee? I guess being right in the middle makes me “multi-culture” linquistically.

  2. I’m starting to think that by “Yank”, that quiz really means “New England.” Which is fine, because they really do have a distinctive way of speaking, but I think the Great Lakes region is just as “northern” as they are. Instead we’re all getting scores somewhere in the middle.

  3. 79% Dixie. Not surprising since my family (kin) are from the South. rdh, I knew all along you are just a southern poser!
