This, of course, brings-up the BIGGEST disagreement amongst the Southern

except by illiterate hillbillies raised by squirrels, and those who
think that those lily-livered overeducated windbags are full of it.
Bring up this subject while visiting down there is just about the most
fun a Yankee can have.

I've always been fond of "y'all" (singular) and "all y'all" (plural).
