大小多少（李一笑）
一个大，一个小
一只老虎一只猫，
一边多，一边少
一群大雁一只鸟。
数一数，瞧一瞧，
大小多少记得牢。

大小多少

My mom and I finish the quiz about American dialects we started last week to discover whether we speak the same way as other people from our region.
During our conversation, we also discuss regional vocabulary and accents from distinct sociocultural regions across the United States, including the South, the West Coast, New England, Texas, the Midwest and more.
You'll certainly learn a bit more about regional American cultures as well!
This is only the second half of the quiz. Please listen to episode 006 Exploring American Dialects (Part One) for the first half!
