It took me awhile to realize "ya'll" isn't a real word, and I'm still learning.
Yes, except it's spelled "y'all", and it IS a real word.
And, by the way: It's not just a plural second-person pronoun,
it's a singular one as well. But don't get me wrong, I respect you
even if you speak Texian (correct nomenclature when you include
its Mexican roots).
P.S. Iz y'all git di'lects, tain't us'un. (Gott mit uns!)
P.P.S. Old saying: "Any task a Texan sets himself to, he can accomplish;
if not with ignorance, then with stupidity.
P.P.P.S. All the above was composed and written by a native-born,
half-bred Texian.
