American English quiz


Your Linguistic Profile:



60% General American English

20% Yankee

15% Dixie

5% Upper Midwestern

0% Midwestern




But the three where I just chose one of two eminently possible answers, if I chose the other option, would take away my 5% Upper Midwestern and add it on to General American English.

It's a very silly version of the quiz.

Why am I awake this early on a Saturday? 'Cause I'm going to go see a movie made in Greenland....

even though I'm not american, I gave it a whirl. the question about what I call an easy class ought to have had a "none of the above" option, because I've never heard of any of those. another thing was pronunciation of route. I use both depending on whether I'm using it as a noun or a verb.
