What Kind of American English Do You Speak?

P.S. I don't call it Soda, or Pop, or Coke. I call it softdrink, or cola (when I mean cola).

And I don't tend to use the term 'basement' or 'cellar'. I say 'garage' or 'down stairs' or 'below ground' or 'in the car park' or whatever.

And I call and 'easy class'... and *easy class*. I've never heard of those other terms.

And I don't tend to refer to a 'water fountain' or 'drinking fountain'... I'd just say whatever the person before me called it.

[Update: I'm delirious. That's why I don't speak so good.]
