It's appropriate to use the all encompassing word "y-all" in this
newsgroup.

You mean "all-y'all"?

Southern American English dialect, a contraction of "you" and "all."

I've actually heard the plural used as "all y'all".


There are lots of sort of funny little "Southern'isms." "Us'ns,
we'uns,
you'uns" Harmless stuff, once you figure out what the hell they are
saying. First time I heard "you'uns" I thought I would fall over from
laughter.

I'll bet you managed to contain yourself though.

Probably not, he's quite bigoted.

He may be a coward but he's not stupid.

Wonder how he handled 'Youse Guys ' from the area he grew up in.


Someone here is from Philly or New York City, the believed "origin" of
"youse guys," or is Bilious Bill just venting his ignorance...again?

Nope Harry is flaunting his ignorance. Had a Polish roommate at school
who was from Baltimore area. Youse Guys was common with him and his
buddies. Baltimore seems to be Maryland where you exist.


Oh, so now it is a Polish/Baltimore thing. You're so full of ****, as
usual, Bilious.

I doubt etymology is your field and, of course, I'm not from the
Baltimore area, nor do I live in the Baltimore area. I do like
Baltimore, though. It has its problems, but it has some good venues,
great restaurants and an interesting waterfront.

Nope it is a Maryland thing it appears.
