What Kind of American English Do You Speak?

I had absolutely no answer for #10.

Some other questions that might be valuable for such a survey: How do you pronounce "creek"? Is it a tap, a faucet, or a spigot?

I had no answer for #10 either...I just call it an easy class! :o)
Great blog you've got here! My husband and I will be in Philly on Saturday for a Phillies game...if we can find a place to stay, maybe we'll go to the Mass at Our Lady of Mt. Carmel on Sunday - thanks for the heads up!

Thanks, Colleen.

If you stay you also have the option of going to Mater Ecclesiae Mission in New Jersey or Our Lady of Consolation in Northeast Philadelphia. The Latin Mass at the latter is at 2:00 p.m. and is always a Low Mass.

LOL. I was just thinking that you didn't have much of a twang.
