Re: Re: SG, I don't say it southern style either, but I do say "you all."
I didn't mean that you were. It's when I write it reads like that.

I'm not from the deep south, just Delaware.

I had a high school French teacher from Benin, an African nation. When he came to America, he went to Georgia. He jokingly said the Queen's English he had learned went out the window.

A job not to copy local speak once. Now so many different voices to try to understand.

I often say "you all" but not in the southern style. I say it meaning "all of you." It's a habit that's hard to break.
