No "Y'alls" is possessive as in "Is that y'alls truck?"
You really have to get this grammar thing right. Didn't your "grammar"
teach you anything?
The possessive form of 'y'alls' is 'y'all's'. You left out an important apostrophe.
"Is that y'all's truck?"
If the truck ownership was plural, then it would be, "Is that all y'alls' truck?"
Going to a Waffle House in Mississippi once doesn't make you a "y"all" expert. I was born and raised in SC. You wouldn't hear that here, except maybe from some tiny percentage of the population that was *really* backwood and uneducated. I certainly don't hear at the office or out in public, even from the natives.
I spent a whole, lovely year in Columbus, GA, eating at the cheapest places I could find. Never ate
anything in Mississippi, although I wouldn't mind trying some salted alligator tail.
Years ago I attended a symposium that was held in New Orleans. One of
the restaurants offered a appetizer sampler consisting of turtle soup,
alligator meat of some sort and shark. What the hell, I thought, so I
tried it.
Don't really remember any of it as being bad or good one way or the
other but I doubt I'll ever have any of it again. I don't drink
anymore. :-)
