I was read'in somwurs that the southern accent is strongly rooted to the various accents of the British empire.

Heard that as well, work with a lot of Brits and have some friends from the South (North Carolina and Arkansas) ...my brother in law is from Queens, NY and I have to say I agree with you.

35% Dixie. You are definitely a Yankee.
Unsurprising. The variety of English spoken in Ontario is alot like "Yankee" english (minus the accent, of course ;)).

Your Yankeeness has been tainted i'm afraid. :D

BTW why do you bold your posts?

By the way, when I was growing up in the midwest, Soda was referred to as "PoP". :yep: :)

I do have a hard lean towards Texas according to the test...:sunny:

On the Advanced test 100% Dixie again... thats right genuine for real southerner as if yall didn't know.

Number 6 on the advance test did worry me a bit cause "Hey yall" wasn't one of the choices.

Now I can sleep up a storm know my Dixieness is tested.
Texas is now the Northern Republic of Mexico by the way.

BASIC: 36% Dixie. You are definitely a Yankee.
ADVANCED: 13% Dixie. Wow! You are a Duke of Yankeedom!

Makes sense, grew up in Philly (1986-2003), and the family has since moved to Charlotte (2003-2006) and south Florida (2006- ).

100% Dixie and yes I am a Great....Nephew of Robert E. Lee.

However, I consider myself as a
"Redneck with couth"

I'm from Vermont.

We just plain hate everybody, North or South, who isn't from Vermont.

You're all a bunch of damn flatlanders.

The original test told me I was a Yankee. I do spend time in Minnesota most years.

Took the advanced test and it spotted that I am, in fact, English.

The big mystery to me is, what is grits?

When I did the quick test I got 53% Dixie. Barely in Dixie. And on the advanced test (and it did notice I was English too) 15% Dixie. Wow! You are a Duke of Yankeedom!

Some of the answers given were not what I would have chosen, so I just went for the nearest:D
