Then we can call ourselves US. The rest of all yawl are well all
yawl.
Which is usually spelt "y'all". "Yawl" is a two masted fore-and-aft
rig sailing vessel. If you ketch the difference.
Of course, "y'all" used to be vernacular plural for "you", but these
days, "y'all" seems to be second person singular around here and the new
plural form is "all y'all".
Maybe over at Clemson, but that usage hasn't made it to North Central WV
yet, Matthew. Even that 'yawl' business was a new one for me. Does that
mean we're really really behind the times here?
That was my "ob pun" to keep the thread rich and alive. This is fun
learning.
