People who don't even live in the USA saying "y'all" is pure pain

[-] rmuk@feddit.uk 3 points 21 hours ago

I say "all of y'all" and make a point to really emphasize the "'".

[-] weew@lemmy.ca 2 points 17 hours ago

You say "of?"

I thought it was basically all y'all

Or all'o'y'all

This needs a line going up the Appalachians for the "You-uns" belt.

And somewhere there's "yinz".

I was just about to point out that the map is missing a small "yinz" enclave around Pittsburgh/Johnstown

Trust me there are many more areas that say y'all

I'm from New Jersey and have never heard anyone unironically say "youse guys". Side note we also don't call it "Joisey".

I'll throw in "folks" as another gender neutral option. I say "you folks" all the time, especially in professional contexts. I'm not from the South, but I have family there so y'all is a part of my vocabulary. I use it in more informal situations pretty commonly.

I bought a shirt once in Pittsburgh that says, “Yinz is a gender-neutral p pronoun”

[-] fmstrat@lemmy.nowsci.com 2 points 19 hours ago

If you live on the line, or move north/west, it's now "you all".

[-] bandwidthcrisis@lemmy.world 6 points 1 day ago

Can "y'all" be singular, since there is "all y'all" for plural?

[-] baronvonj@lemmy.world 7 points 1 day ago

When talking about a group but only one individual of the group is present you can still use y'all.

My boss says “you’ll”

grow up more on the west side of the US and I'd hear y'all every day lol. but more relevant, I don't think I've ever met a trans friend who would ever get offended being called y'all, I know I wouldn't haha

P.S. hey trans people, y'all cool asf <3
