The " yall" is the worst IMO. [/ QUOTE ] I'm from Texas, and I say y'all. But one thing that does really bug me is when people use y'all to mean you, and in the singular. Just say you! Also, y'all is, at least a legitimate contraction, unlike yous. That one bugs the [censored] outta me. |

Re: American accents that really bug you
"we" means more than one.
"you" can mean one or more. When we say "yall" it clears up any possible confusion about whether I am speaking to "you" or "yall". |
