I’m just glad that the test shows that any vestigial trace of my native Western Pennsylvania accent is now entirely gone. By the way, the only idiom from that region I still use is “fixin’ to”, which luckily is fairly common here in Texas.

A lady friend from the bayou in louisiana once asked me during an intimate encounter if I was “fixin” to come.
I replied “not any more, forgetaboutit”
