ive been looking for ya'll

Im always wondering if it will fit or if it will work at all? well maybe now i can ask instead of trying and setting myself up for lots of extra fabrication and time lost. just what ive read in a few minutes from past post has put a on my face. thanks and im happy to be a member

 

just fyi, it's y'all. As in "you all".

 

Cool! Thats what its all about! (That...and punctuation/spelling! LoL)

 

That's Classic! Teaching a Texan to say/spell y'all.

 

So the contraction of we would is w'would? (G) I vote for ya'll. Plural is all ya'll.

1. Welcome to the HAMB.
2. Ignore the grammer police, they don't have nothin' else t'do.

 

"We Would" would be "WOOD".."She Would" Would be " Should" Coincidence I think not.

 

"Ya'll".................Like ya'll said...................

 

Yep, and I'm not even from the south, just been here for 28 years...

Your sig says it all "Frequently wrong, never in doubt."

There's even a magazine. http://www.yall.com/

 

HA! Welcome from another Texan.

 

I'll still go with shortening the last word in a contraction. And I'll admit this is the most off topic discussion I've (notice which word I shortened??) had on the HAMB. LOL
And I'll (there it is again) admit to being wrong a lot more that I was when I was younger.
All in fun, folks.

Welcome to the HAMB DeneeJames! How do you like us so far?

Justify however you want, but maybe there's a reason that Texas is #49 in verbal SAT scores in the nation (493) and #46 in average math SAT scores (502). And Texas is #36 in the nation in high school graduation rates (68%). Oh and that's out of 50...

Ouch.....

Don't worry North Carolina isn't doing a whole lot better. But we can aspire to do better.

Welcome to the HAMB y'all. It's all in fun.

 

Great to get a few replys.. i am feeling welcome already, as for the spelling police im from east texas ya'll and we pretty much spell and pronounce however we want to. Sadly i thought i was a little smarter than the average bear, but the older i get the less i know.
