Do y'all talk "southern". For example, "bless her heart", "young'un", "y'all", "ugly" (meaning rude), calling the grocery cart a "buggy"? My sister & I started saying these things when we were teenagers to be funny...now I use all the traditional southern sayings.
I say some of those. Y'all and ugly I use a lot. I also say yonder. I've never called a cart a buggy though.
I say "Y'all" (but thats not really a southern thing), Bless her heart, youngin'(once again, not really a southern thing) however I cringe whenever I hear someone call a cart "buggy". My SIL is about the only person I know who says 'Yonder' and actually means something when she says it, everyone else only says it to be funny.
I volunteer to save lives; What do you do?
I say buggy too. I was an adult before I heard it called anything different.
Quoting NatalieMH:
I say ya'll and ugly. Buggy too.
oh! i forgot about britches. i am ashamed to say i have used the term britches & wasn't even trying to be funny
I use y'all and buggy! LOL
I used to talk very proper, my family used to laugh at me (voice training...lol), but since I've been out of school and with my husband (talk about "southern" way of speaking, OMG!)...he's rubbed off on me.
I say all those except buggy. I call it a shopping cart.
What do you call a can of coke? Soda? Pop? Cola?
