Yeah, that could explain it. My mother's side of the family was fairly urban, but my dad's side was very country (I'm the first generation on that side who's not a farmer).

I had my bf take these - He got 25% on one and 33% on the other - odd because he's from south Louisiana and has a slight Cajun accent (his parents both have very pronounced Cajun accents, IMO).

And he informed me that I saw "fawl" instead of "foil."
