They’re missing a few things like Bubbler instead of water fountain and jimmies, but it seems pretty good otherwise. I wonder where that dixie comes from?
There should also be a California test which asks you if you call it “5”, “I-5” or “The 5”.
My Linguistic Profile:
55% General American English |
25% Yankee |
10% Upper Midwestern |
5% Dixie |
0% Midwestern |
You’ve obviously been around me and Brian too long.

My wife also complained about the lack of “bubbler” as an option on water fountains. But she also scored 40% Yankee, so perhaps that’s not too surprising.
