March 30, 200719 yr 78% Dixie although some of my answers could have went either way. I'm doing it again.
March 30, 200719 yr When I did the test again, and answered the opposite of the ones that really could have went either way I became 46% Yankee. That just tells me there isn't that much difference in our vocabulary or dialect. BTW...I'm not at all a Yankee.
April 5, 200719 yr Definitely weighted. They didn't ask for pronounciations like: pen, dixie says ink pen, yankees say pen. How about tournament? Northeast says tore and south says tur. And the list could go on and on............................

And the list could go on and on............................ Dixie/ Yankee Oregon/Aregan, Florida/Flarida, Orange/Arange, Wash/Warsh, INsurance/inSURance, UmBRELLA/UMbrella.......
April 5, 200719 yr Dixie/ Yankee Oregon/Aregan, Florida/Flarida, Orange/Arange, Wash/Warsh, INsurance/inSURance, UmBRELLA/UMbrella....... Based on this, I must be about 50% Yankee.
April 6, 200719 yr Wow ! I'm shocked. 86% Dixie , I don't think I have too many Confederate ancestors.
April 6, 200719 yr Yikes 47%. I'm a Kentucky Yankee !!!???? Of course my mother was born and raised in Detroit/Pittsburg so that must have been an influence of some kind. Darn I'm hungry. A grinder and pop sounds good about now. See YOUSE GUYS later.:creepy:
June 30, 200719 yr Pop has always been something we drink and soda (baking soda)is something you use when you make biscuits:thumb: :lol: My grandma called it "bakin' sody".
June 30, 200719 yr 64% (Dixie), not really surprising to me, Eastern Kentucky is definitely more Dixie than Yankee.
