Dictionary.com Unabridged Based on the Random House Dictionary, © Random House, Inc. 2012. Whoops. Nothing to see here; carry on. https://www.google.com/search?q=youn...ient=firefox-a Still no reference to the word bonnie spelled out in any dictionary.... anywhere so far... The fact that Don spelled the word "young-uns" instead of spelling it "younguns" or "young'uns" or "young uns" is neither here nor there, Mr. Barely Completed High School. The word is a colloquialism, and there are several variations of its spelling in the more extensive dictionaries. For these kinds of words, virtually any and all spellings are "correct." It's kind of funny that you and the other barely edu-ma-cateds are making an issue out of it. The last time I was in North Carolina, I overheard a conversation in which the words "us'ns, we'uns you uns," s were used. Or is it "us uns, you uns, we uns"? I didn't ask the folks using the phrases how they spelled those words. Now, what are you going to do about your serious issues, such as your psychoses? We got yalls number. Yessiree, we do.
