Today's Topic:
Write about whatever you'd like, but write using regional slang, your dialect, or in your accent.
Ugh. It's the end of a long day and I just don't feel like doing this. (Isn't that awful?)
One of the more common Kentucky-isms I've heard since moving here is "you'uns" - 2nd person plural pronoun. As in:
Are you'uns going up to the fair this weekend? Better get more air in that left rear tar (tire). It's a-lookin' a little low.
Of course, there is always:
Ah'm tarred after pickin' backer all day.
The rest of the world may or may not recognize that as: I'm tired after picking tobacco all day.
~~~oOo~~~
So, what are some of your -isms?m
