This is funny, I never knew I could speak any kind of American English (I'm more versed in British English), and there you go: 20% Dixie!  (Is that the south?)

Yes, exactly.

I left some fields blank. I put my groceries in a trolley or trundler. I've never heard of spreading lavatory paper in front of a house. I call carbonated sweet drinks fizzy drink. An easy class is a doddle or a pushover or a cultural unit (and we had another expression but I can't remember it). I don't know how caramel can be pronounced with two syllables. What's a cruller?

Car-mull.  A cruller is like a donut.  A sweet, deep-fried dough thing.
