I got almost the same as you. I don't have the dixie but I gained it in the upper midwest. Otherwise, we're the same. We're Michigan, through and through! :)
I'm from Chicago, but I don't do "da Chicaga speak" thing--I think I'm more Midwest. I have been accused of sounding like a Valley girl, but I don't know what they are talking about? I have to speak "Appalachian American" when I talk to my friend Fain, otherwise I can't understand a thing she's saying. I have to talk like her to understand her--go figure!
I almost forgot I left something for you on my blog but I'm not sure why it appearing as an older post and I can't fix it so use this link. http://kat-mygirlsandme.blogspot.com/2009/03/unexpected-friendships-and-awards.html
I speak Canadian English and it's just as English! hahaha...

ReplyDeleteAccording to the quiz, I speak General American English.
