My Linguistic Profile

Hey everyone…

I just took a little quiz I found over at Belicove.com and discovered

My Linguistic Profile:

80% General American English

15% Dixie

5% Upper Midwestern

0% Midwestern

0% Yankee

Also I am apparently 40% Weird

Which means:

…Normal enough to know that I’m weird…

But too damn weird to do anything about it!

Here are the tests:

I am interested in the demographics of my visitors.

If you take these test please post your results in the comments section.
