69% (Dixie)



if you answer "ya'll" and that is the only question you answer, you are a 100 percent Dixie.




Shocked they didn't have a question about wash.

87% Southerner...... and I'm definitely NOT a REDNECK...... if you live in the south, you'd know what a "redneck" really is...........LOL

When I was in the chemical business, my offices and travels and 90% of my clients (GM, Ford, Chrysler), were in the north.... it was so funny as a lot of people would ask me to just "talk"...... At one tiem, I was the only southerner in a detroit group and the secretaries took me out to lunch often just to hear me read the menu!!!

BUT.... during those years, some of my southern relatives and friends said I was picking up some "yankee" tone...... I will have to say, the area I thought was really a different language was New York......

65% Southern

Raised in New Joisey and New Yawk, but been down here 40 years, stands to reason I'm one of 'em.

Here to stay!

34% Yankee.

I'm born and raised in NYC and I just don't know where this guy got some of his scores from.

Pajamas like father is southeastern United States? The only people I know who pronounce it like jam are people from Massachusetts

Tag sale?!?!?! _Only_ people from Brooklyn call it a Tag sale. Everyone else in the city (the normal folks ) calls it a yard sale (or a stoop sale).

Who pronounces cot and caught the same way?!?!

I've never heard of the night before halloween called anything, let alone mischief night.

Kids in NY call the ball bugs a roly poly and the adults call them pill bugs. At least that has been my experience.

And for the record, people in NYC call it TP'ing a house not papering a house.
