It said I could be from Lexington, Kentucky, or surrounding area.  I did my undergrad there at the University of Kentucky.  It knows me very well!

Funny how I had to put "other" on a few answers or I don't have a word for that.  For the record, y'all, it's called a "craw daddy."  😊

This reminds me of that movie called Cousin Vinny where the lawyer talks to the judge about the "two yoots" (youths). 😂

Same here. I had to pick other on a few too.  We’ve always said crawdaddy.

Really funny I got Anchorage Alaska.  I have only been there once.  I have no family there.  And I answered honestly and carefully.  MIght have to move.

I got Buffalo/Rochester so at least it put me in the right state although on the other end.

I though a few questions were odd. I call it a tree line which wasn't an option. And the roundabout one is odd. As a kid we had one that was always called a circle. Now we have tons and they are called roundabouts. I still go with circle myself.

I also have a few things that are probably more boondocks since my mother grew up in the Adirondacks. So we called dinner supper as a kid. Now I say dinner but it all means the same thing to me but locally that's probably not true.

As a child in New York we used the word supper, as an adult I started calling it dinner.  And, same as you, supper and dinner mean the same thing.

@oznell ... My results were the same as yours... Buffalo, Rochester and Aurora, Illinois (a suburb of Chicago. I had to look that up!). Buffalo/Rochester are correct but not Aurora, Illinois. For Aurora, Illinois they used the sample that I pronounce "cot" and "caught" different. I don't know if that's the only answer that pertained to Aurora, Illinois or not!

While reading all of the answers I was VERY surprised at a lot of the answers...how very different from the way I speak. Most of the sayings I've never heard before! 

Thanks, @Oznell. Fun and interesting test!

Wow. I just took the test. Not only did it pinpoint my state pretty much all the way, but it pinpointed the city in which I was born, clear across the state amd mountains from where I live now and the difference between rural inland to urban/coastal

What you are describing is not at all like the quizzes that specifically ask for a user's email address before they give you results.  Your scenario happens whether you take a quiz or not, @RedTop  It's not at all the same thing.

Very accurate for me.

Suburbs of Phoenix, where I've lived for over 40 years, although not my exact suburb and Rockford, IL. I was born in IL.

Mine were accurate!
