Considering I'm from the South, I don't think this is accurate.

I think the quiz is very interesting. I had never thought about some of those regional differences.

Stupid "y'all" :mad: It's not my fault English doesn't have a distinctive second-person plural pronoun, and "y'all" seems good enough for me!!

I'm cursing that aunt/ant question which I am sure gave me way too much yankee.... and, as of right now, I'm going back to using "pop" instead of "soda"
