No big surprises here. Small reflections of places in which I have lived (CA, NJ, and IL).
Posted by Frank Yamada at April 19, 2005 05:04 PMInterestingly enough, I turned out 75% General English, 10% Upper Midwestern, 10% Yankee, and 5% Dixie. It would be nice if the website told you which word related to which category. I did find out last night though, that another term that I call a "trash can" is also called a "barrel". It must be a Yankee word since it came from Kevin.
