53% Dixie, hmm, I'm asian by birth, and raised in California since I was 3 by a Californian and Kentuckian, sounds about right

I am just confused, but I got 47% (Yankee). Barely into the Yankee category.

40% (Yankee). A definitive Yankee. But what about the other 60%?

EDIT: Nevermind, the other 60% must be Dixie? I confused by this too.

66% (Dixie). A definitive Southern score!

I KNOW that I am mostly Southern. Mom's from Georgia and my dad's from Arkansas. Certain allowances do have to be made, for me being raised in southern AZ, though. I have a lot of Hispanic influences, too.

I was 32% Yankee (a definite Yankee). At the top it said that 0% was a "complete Yankee". So, the smaller the number, the more of a Yankee you are.

OK, my parents are from Nebraska, I was raised in Colorado and went to school in Nebraska. Where did I get Southern??? Not that I'm complaining, I've always felt Southern.

I was sure I'd be a total Yank...
So like is an even 50% like half dixie and half yankee? I'm sorta middle of the road then I guess..

Here's my score!

70% (Dixie). A definitive Southern score!

This is perfect for me. I was born in New Jersey, lived in Georgia for 7 years and then moved to Florida. My best friend is from North Carolina!

39%: a definitive Yankee. Sounds about right for someone raised in SE Pennsylvania, but gradually getting used to some expressions from the Midwest, thanks to Nebraskan nieces and nephews.

Lily's mom...did you learn to talk somewhere other than New England? Usually that makes a difference. My mom was born and raised in Mass. but has lived in NC for about 35-40 years not, she still sounds like she is from New England. I will have to send her the quiz and see how she scores

I think the way it works is the lower the perecentage score you get the more Yankee you are, the higher the score the more Dixie you are.
