I thought some of you might have some fun testing yourself with this simple test. I was born and grew up in Spartanburg, SC, attended school in Richmond, VA, worked in Virginia, South Carolina, Georgia and Kentucky -- I rated 70% on the test.

Rate yourself to see if you are more Yankee or Dixie in your speech and thinking.
Check on your dialect and see if you might have crossed over to the "other side"! Simply click on the correct answer. As you go, the quiz will automatically interpret each answer to show you what your answer implies about you. When you are done, press Compute My Score. Your score will be calculated as a percentage: 0% is pure Yankee and 100% is pure Dixie.
