With this internet thing (hope it catches on), we now have the world – and beyond – at our fingertips. Just the same though, we all still have our own quirks, dialects and traits associated with our heritage. Many of us have moved in our lifetimes, and whether it’s across a country or across the street, our tendencies still tend to follow us.
Take the Yankee or Dixie quiz to see if you’re really as far away from the Mason-Dixon line as you think.

FYI – I lived in the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia for 7 years while in college & seminary. So I had a hard time choosing for a few of those because I use different words and pronunciations interchangeably.
