RE: [RC] Bosana Boot - rides2far@xxxxxxxx


Sorry about the busted ribs, but you do get a gold star for spelling "y'all"

correctly as well as its plural.


I am well aware of the above spelling when I write "ya'll". I have been 
corrected many times, always by Yankees. "Ya'll" is not an abreviation of "You 
all" since we would never say "You all". "Ya'll" is a word that stands on its 
own and is properly pronounced "yawl" not "Ya all"...and don't get me started 
about how we don't pronounce things correctly...I don't take correction from 
anyone who puts two syllables in a word as short as "oil" Ya'll kill me saying 
OY YULL.

And finally, ya'll *is* plural! No southerner in the world would say "Ya'll" to 
one person!!!!!  "All Ya'll" is an all encompassing plural...I'm not just 
talking to ya'll yankees, I'm talking to ALL ya'll!"

Angie.
