The map is a coarse macro-region view, not a survey boundary. State groupings are this site's own approximation: the eight quiz regions do not map one-to-one onto published dialect areas, every border state is a gradient, and states with heavy migration vary internally.

Canada is drawn as its own geographic inset of the thirteen provinces and territories, at its own scale rather than on the U.S. map, and the inset is an outline of the country rather than a dialect boundary. Texas and California are outlined with a dashed edge to mark where their scores overlap the Southern and Western scores.
