Yankee or Dixie test
This is really just meant for people in the US, but it'll be interesting if people worldwide take it as well. :done:
Edit, I found a new working link for the quiz http://www.sonicpling.net/misc/yankee-dixie-quiz.html Of course, Yankee means you're more likely to be from the Northern US, and Dixie meaning you're from the Southern US. It says I'm "78% (Dixie). That is a pretty strong Southern score!" Hmm... I had no idea I was such a country bumpkin... :gigi: :rolleyes: Only people in the South refer to all soda as "coke"? :confused: |
Apparently my slavic accent resembles the northern folks more. :S
"48% (Yankee). Barely into the Yankee category." Quote:

Pff. :D Quote:
Actually, a lot of TN words weren't given as answers. - People just say "shoes" for all kinds of footwear. - A road along an Interstate is a "dirt trail". - People can also be addressed as "y'alls". - A bug that rolls itself up is called a "curly critter". Jive-ass test don't go no accurate dialect variation anyhow. :D |

Hmmmm :heh: |
50% (Yankee). Barely into the Yankee category.
Doesn't that mean I'm 50% Dixie too? Oooo... i'm well rounded! |
78% (Dixie). That is a pretty strong Southern score!
Damn you Atlanta....damn you :p |
I'm 61% Dixie apparently.
They should make a test like this relating to Britain - it'd be hilarious! BTW, am I the only British person who regularly says "y'all"? :ithink: |

hm..whose influence could *that* be...*tries to look as if she had no clue* I didnt answer half of the questions cause I didnt understand the question or the answer *LOL* *grins* or I went like WTF?! *giggles* |
I can't get the link to work :ithink: but it sounds funny :D
I lived in the south and used to order a "regular Coke" to distinguish it from diet and other sodas - I know some people who think that sounds ridiculous :gigi: Also heard people say 'y'all all,' as in "y'all all better come into the house now" ... :laugh: cniaju, 'curly critter'? I know those as 'doodle bugs' :gigi: |

I don't know if anyone's still interested in taking this quiz, but I found a working link for it and edited it into the first post. :done:

Took the test. Hi-hi, 63% (Dixie). A definitive Southern score! So what now? I couldn't figure out a few definitions there though. :bum:
