Here's a link to a quick, 20-item quiz that is supposed to assess regional American dialects. The quiz was developed from the results of the Harvard Computer Society Dialect Survey of 30,788 respondents.
Try it. (No cheating!!)

I did the test even though I am not American. So some of questions answers weren't really relevant to me.
52% (Dixie). Barely into the Dixie category.
Although I don't know what Dixie is?
LOL, Claire. Dixie refers to the southeastern United States, where they eat cornbread and grits and say "y'all." (How's that for stereotyping??)
