It's not "you all" or y'all" or "ya all".

We're sailors, "y'awl" and if we are going to talk about a third person plural pronoun it has to be "y'awl!" <img src=icon_smile_approve.gif border=0 align=middle>

For those in certain sections of NYC, Boston, etc., isn't it "Yooz Gize"?

To a sailer, a yawl has two masts with the mizzen aft of the rudder post, as opposed to a ketch, which has it forward of the rudder post. To you pick-em-up truck drivers, a ketch is what yawls got out in the bassboat.

In Pittsburgh they say "you-ins" or "yuns"

You-ins going to the game?

Yuns ready to order dessert?

It makes the hair on the back of my neck stand-up. When entertaining business out-of-towners we make sure they know we're not originally from this area <img src=icon_smile_dead.gif border=0 align=middle> . . .

Ahem.
It should be stated as follows:

Y'all (singular)
All - y'all (plural)

It isn't english, it's 'merican

Happy Thanksgiving "all"

Bryan, you forgot the next line:

L.I.B! M.R. ducks!

After living for eight years on Virginia's Eastern Shore, I speak that dialect fluently.
