Take this NY Times test to see if it accurately determines where you (or your family) are from by the way you speak! Post your results here. :nod:

How Y’all, Youse and You Guys Talk - Interactive Graphic - NYTimes.com

My results:

Grand Rapids, Detroit, Toledo (OH)

It's a fun little test. Our overseas & canadian members should try it too!

 

[Prophet]

I got Corona, CA and Spring Valley, NV! Definitely accurate for me! :nod:

 

[Clara Oswald]

I got Pittsburgh, Lexington, Little Rock lol. It was amazing how many answers were particular to just Pittsburgh and no where else around it lol

 

[s_k]

Not sure if I answer all questions correctly but...

I got New York, Jersey City, Newark / Paterson.
Guess it's the right coast, closest to Europe, anyway.

Texas was very blue on that map.
Guess I will not be passed as a Texan if I ever visit the US. lol

[Black King]

Jersey City, Newark and New York

Yeah they pegged me down pretty well with the sneakers thing

Edit: I got a little bit of the red in the South (the Carolinas and Alabama specifically which is where my parents are from so this test was shockingly on point)

 

[Rampage]

Montgomery and Mobile Alabama, and Winston-Salem NC. So they did pick one city within 3 hours of my hometown.

 

[Screen Legend]

Seattle, Rochester, and Buffalo.

Kind of strange since I live right by the border to MICHIGAN. :sure:

 

[SiD]

Newark/Paterson, Yonkers & New York.
I don't know what i was expecting, maybe more Minnesota.

 

[Persephone]

I got Philadelphia, Newark, and Yonkers. Which is accurate since I grew up outside of Philly.
