Quiz: Find your American accent

They pegged me!

Like it says, I think I speak English right out of the dictionary. And I’m an English major, so I was afraid that would affect my ability to represent my area, but they somehow figured me out.

I use “soda”, “pop” and “soda pop” interchangeably. I’ve never really been clear on which one is correct for my part of the country.

Here’s an oddity. I grew up calling water fountains “bubblers”. I picked it up from other kids. Then I’d move and sometimes people looked at me like I’d made up an alien term. But I was just moving back and forth in Wisconsin/Iowa/Minnesota. It’s not like I was going to Texas and Alaska! Wish I knew what the linguistic map is for use of that word.
