I don't think "Y'all" would be problematic. But I also offer "You peeps", I enjoy that one more in day to day conversation.
Is the difference between youse and youse guys the number of people involved? Similar to y'all and all y'all?
Nah you just replace you with youse. Example:
Happy birthday to youse, happy birthday to youse. Happy birthday this fucking guuuuy! Happy birthday to youse!
"Y'all" has wider reach than this map suggests, particularly in black and queer communities.
Should be fine π
I have a VERY southern friend. He once said "y'all all".
If you live on the line, or move north/west, it's now "you all".
In what context(s)?
What?
It feels like a standard case of it's fine until it isn't. I wouldn't worry about it and only drop it from your vocabulary if you notice it causing harm.
