I found this quiz…

What Kind of American English Do You Speak?
Your Linguistic Profile:
75% General American English
10% Dixie
10% Yankee
5% Midwestern
0% Upper Midwestern

I’m going to say that the Dixie thing comes from the fact that I do say y’all sometimes. And don’t make fun…I’m usually trying to say you all, as in-What would you all like to do tonight? Nothing like…Hey y’all.

So, to all the snobby Chicago suburb types that think Central Illinois is full of redneck hicks…take that!

    I’m really wondering where my %15 Dixie came from. I mean, I DO live in the South, but I thought I was impervious to the accent down here. Hmm….
