‘Where you are from based on your dialect’ quiz in the New York Times

[ChesterGreySideboard]

Really interesting little quiz.
Doesn’t ask for any details so no data harvesting.

It got me down to about 15 miles from where I grew up.

They missed an obvious one:

Wood/Copse/Spinney

I'm Scottish, grew up in Shropshire....and it gave me Sheffield.

Got me right; south east of the m25. But I answered mostly thinking of when I was younger. Dh grew up in same place but got Reading which might be because it was near to where his mum grew up!

Did people do all 96 questions?

@IamPickleRick my grandparents were from east end. Tayters is Cockney rhyming slang:

Tayters in the mould = cold

Yep got me within 20 miles, in fact it stated the nearest city.
