Speech Test
50% (Yankee). Barely in the Yankee category.
Wasn't sure what to expect being born in VA, but having lived everywhere from CA, IL, MD, NJ, SC, and now PA with my Father's side being from Mass. and my mother's from NC....I'm so confuddled.

Shensen, I would call that miniature lobster a crawfish when talking with a Yankee, and a crawdad when speaking with a Southerner. I would call the nite before All Hallow's Eve Devil's Nite because I and all those I know in real life have watched The Crow. Otherwise, I've lived no place where it has a name...and I've lived a lot of places, too.
What I found interesting about that test is the Eastern bias it has. The West (other side of the Mississippi Valley) also has peculiar words and pronunciations. And they don't much care about Dixie and Yankee or the M-D line. Ask them about the 49ers, copper, the Rez or the Bomb tho...
Oh, yeah...and ask them about local wine.
