I took the test and got the following results:
Strange, I've never been to South Africa or talked English with anyone from there. US Black Vernacular - must be all those American movies and TV-series I've watched. England English - well, I've learnt British English (received pronounciaton) in school long ago.
Even stranger. I've never even been to Hungary. Finnish? I've been to Finland many times when I was a child (every summer) but everybody talked Swedish there (Ostrobothnia) and I've never learnt Finnish.

I don't remember the test form before, but do remember the results page, and I think I had Finnish in there then, just not now.
