I just took the quiz again, and only selected answers that are correct in my own dialect (i.e. omitted constructions that I've heard from British-English speakers. This time:
Our top three guesses for your English dialect: 1. American (Standard) 2. Singaporean 3. Australian Our top three guesses for your native (first) language: 1. English 2. Norwegian 3. Swedish
Now I'm wondering whether "Canadian" is one of the dialects the test detects. The grammar is similar to American Standard (in my experience, which is limited to Ontario), but certain word choices are different.
