Yankee or Dixie? Take the Quiz
Yankee or Dixie ^
Posted on 01/14/2005 11:10:39 AM PST by Hillary's Lovely Legs
Yankee or Dixie? Check on your dialect and see if you might have crossed over to the "other side"! Simply click on the correct answer. As you go, the quiz will automatically interpret each answer to show you what your answer implies about you. When you are done, press Compute My Score. Your score will be calculated as a percentage: 0% is pure Yankee and 100% is pure Dixie.
- Do not change your answer during the test as it will ruin the score. You may do this after scoring is calculated to see the other answers.
- If you make a mistake, hit Clear below to restart the test!
- I regret that I do not have time to entertain discussions about this test or negotiate changes. It is provided strictly as-is and for entertainment purposes only.
- Be aware that television entertainment has a lot of northern dialect in it. This will have more of an influence on you than you expect.
- This test is based on results from the Harvard Computer Society Dialect Survey of 30788 respondents.

Ever since I can remember, we have called all of them Coke. At family reunions there is a beer cooler and a cokes cooler, which may have contained Sprite, Dr Pepper, Coke, Big Red, Mountain Dew, etc.

92% Dixie, Was General Lee Your Father?
I guess so, y'all by osmosis anyway. I was born in Cuba and came to the US at age 13 and I am now 56. I have always lived in the South, Florida first, Georgia for almost 40 years.
I confess I took the test twice, first time I checked crawdads and it gave me a 96% Dixie but I changed it to crawfish since I use crawfish most of the time.

HUH?
47% Yankee, (but barely)
That's what happened when this Bostonian married New Jersey!
Now if they had put 'Tonic' as a choice for the bubbly stuff, I would have swept Yankee!

are you UDC/SCV?? if not, why not???
For the same reason I'm not a member of a country club, MENSA, and the like. I belong to one charity type group, Rotary, and the rest of my spare time is devoted to conservative, right wing fringe, political groups. ;-)

My wife has family in Eastern Baltimore County, I think. They're in Easton, Essex and Bel Air. Nice places; we've been there many times.
