American: http://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2013/12/20/sunday-review/dialect-quiz-map.html

World: http://www.gameswithwords.org/WhichEnglish/

First quiz for me: http://imgh.us/Englisher.png

Apparently, I'm from the Northeast, New York is especially a hotspot.

Second quiz:
1. American blackskin
2. Welsh (I learned mainly from a teacher from the Midlands, so this isn't too far off)
3. Standard American as third.

Tongues:
1. Swedish (wrong)
2. English (glad to see it was guessed as second, but wrong)
3. Dutch (wrong)
Actuality: Kazakh (but probably was not expecting such a rather mysterious tongue)

Our top three guesses for your English dialect:?

1. American (Standard)
2. Singaporean
3. US Black Vernacular / Ebonic


Don't really know how Singaporean got there, but naturally american since I mostly speak english while skyping americans and the english I learned was centered around the american ones (valor, color, defense, etc).

Our top three guesses for your native (first) language:?

1. Portuguese
2. Vietnamese
3. Spanish


Well, they did guess it right. And Spanish makes sense since it's essentially the shitty version of portuguese. But... Vietnamese? Wut?

I don't know how they can guess at my dialect being Welsh, and then say I'm a native of China.

For me it was 1. Arabic 2. Vietnamese 3. Portuguese
Dutch wasn't on there but yet that doesn't surprises me because Flemmish regional tongues differ greatly from the Dutch standard language.
