If anyone can find more pixels for me i would appreciate it.
Thanks y’all.
“Y’all” has wider reach than this map suggests, particularly in black and queer communities.
Youse LOL, almost lost it when I heard it one time
Where’s my fellow "yo’d’ll"s at
I’m from “you guys” but I’ve lived in “y’all” and now I’m forever team “y’all,” regardless of where I’m living.
It’s the best export from the south, except maybe Texas brisket and pecan pie.
I mean, neither “you” nor “all” is a gendered term in any way
My boss says “you’ll”
Y’all is the opposite of offensive for trans people. I lived in the south for a while, and I now use y’all specifically to be inclusive. I wouldn’t say “you guys” is offensive to trans women, but I would say for me and likely other trans women it briefly brings to mind being misgendered in the past, so I would call it a small kindness to ube as gender neutral as possible.
Yup, I specifically use y’all and recommend it to people (like my parents) to replace gendered phrases, and I’m not from the y’all zone.
Still up for debate, “dude” and “hun/hon”.
*I’m a trans woman also
Thanks comrade
You forgot “Yinz”
Yinz goin aht n abaht in dahntahn Picksburgh to watch da Stillers game?
Yinz is definitely a Scots thing
That’s actually “you’uns” and despite being from the deep south I barely ever heard it growing up. Guessing you are from the south too
Yinz is a Pittsburgh and Pennsyltucky thing
Wow, this is news to me. How does a new word get the s to change to a z like that??
I would have thought that “y’all” is even more so gender neutral and therefore less offensive/more accepted. It’s a contraction of “you all” right?
Yeah, I’m in the “you guys” zone and I say y’all, it’s always better received.
Y’all has become my goto nowadays, up in the northeast
The y’all zone is all zones apparently.
Yall is the genderless southern hospitality greeting.
No bullshit no hate. Only yall
I’ve used y’all intentionally as a gender neutral term for years in the south.
Lately I’ve even seen “y’all means all” used as a pride slogan in the south.
Awesome! Thanks comrade.
People who don’t even live in the USA saying “y’all” is pure pain
I say “all of y’all” and make a point to really emphasize the “'”.
You say “of?”
I thought it was basically all y’all
Or all’o’y’all
Y’all reminds me of the bible belt. I’m not transgender but I am queer and now and then it makes me uncomfortable.
Guess I’ll have to ask the person I’m addressing in the future.
Thanks comrade.
This needs a line going up the Appalachians for the “You-uns” belt.
Can “y’all” be singular, since there is “all y’all” for plural?
No, you is the singular; y’all is the plural.
All y’all works because you might say “All of you all”, I suppose.
When talking about a group but only one individual of the group is present you can still use y’all.
