I made a ternary color coded version of soda-pop-coke dialect map. Here's my RGB version and Katz's original. Inspired by https://t.co/vo4Nvo2vFI from @ikashnitsky and @jschoeley.

Here's my CMY version of the soda-pop-coke dialect map. The legend differs from @ikashnitsky's mainly because it was easier just to put all the points on a ternary plot and it didn't look terrible.

Three views of soda-pop-coke prevalence: scatterplot, smoothed surface w/ ternary color mixing, and tying color saturation to certainty for "value-suppressing uncertainty" dimension (@uwdata).

@LingSocAm @LaymansLinguist @mappingmashups @pop_vs_soda Can we get a study going to find out where in the US a frown is considered "a downturned mouth" and where it's considered "a furrowed brow"? According to the comments here, various parts of the US understand it differently

It’s National Carbonated Beverage with Caffeine Day. There are several different names based on regions and countries. A website by Alan McConchie surveys people to show a breakdown of the most common terms. @pop_vs_soda #soda #sodapop

@NeokaiTiger @thecoyfox If you look at the usage of "pop" vs "soda" vs "coke" separately, it kind of makes sense? @pop_vs_soda
