What did you say!?!
My friend Ara sent me a link to a speech evaluation test. It asks questions about how you pronounce certain words or what descriptive phrases you use. Then it scores your speech for it's "Yankee" or "Rebel" influences. Pretty cute. I only scored 73% Dixie which must be the influence of my English teaching Grandma and my Midwestern husband. (Note: for any international visitors this probably won't be appealing unless you want to know what a "crawdad" is. Sorry, I couldn't find an Aussie test, Terri!)
If you take the test, leave a comment and let us know your score.
