I have to say, though, that question #19 is correct either way, in my opinion. It depends upon how you use the word.

70% General American English 20% Dixie 10% Yankee 0% Midwestern 0% Upper Midwestern

HMMMM I thought Chicago, where I was born and bred, WAS the upper Midwest!

Your Linguistic Profile:
60% General American English
25% Yankee
10% Dixie

0% Midwestern

although most people think I'm English, since I've worked with alot of English companies and have pick up alot of their words. But yes, american english would be what i do sound like, although, I would say the other 40% is spanish, although those who never hear me speak it constantly say I sound like a "gringo", I have a heavy American accent.

Hey, there was NO California dialect on that thing. Where's the beach talk? (Not that I'm a beach girl...I'm a mountain girl.)

The 5% Dixie is "acquired" from my ex-southern boy. Once y'all start saying y'all, it sticks with you. Plus, it sounds so much better than "you guys".

I left question #10 blank.

10. What do you call an easy class?

A crip course
A gut
A blow off

Heck, I never heard of any of those terms. I would just call it an 'easy class', LOL! :D

Same here. In college, it was called a 'breeze'..

There ya go!! That's exactly it, a 'breeze'. That's Ohio lingo if ever I heard it. :D Thanks Ornello!

Same here. I didn't know how to answer that one either so I answered it as a "blow off" simply because I didn't know how to answer it. But, I would have called it a breeze, too.

We called them - Easy A's.

~Rose~

we called em 'a gimme'

ie: oh that's a gimme

i guess as in give me an A already, it's so easy.........?
