Your Linguistic Profile:



60% General American English

20% Dixie

20% Yankee

0% Midwestern

0% Upper Midwestern





Yup, that's about right. I pick up some Dixie stuff from my dad's family, and I say 'y'all' all on my own, but I have no idea where the Yankee comes from. Technically we're below the Mason-Dixon line, and despite my pleas, we never vacation up north.
