DRUNKEN-ASSHOLE-ONER Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 you say yous-yall as one word? Naw, sometimes I say you's, sometimes I say yall. There's no thought process to it, it just comes out however it comes out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheoHuxtable.. Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 They're both pronounced the same. How do you know how people are spelling it in their heads? I'm talking about how people write it on the internet. Same with your/you're. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheoHuxtable.. Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 "You's guys" is east coast for "yall". Or at least the part of the east coast that I'm from. It's pretty much only white people who say "you's", black people just say "yall". I say both. The fuck is a ignit? I thought only fat Italian men from the Northeast said "youse".

You've never heard the term "ignit??" It's an ignorant, but worse. Why am I explaining that.... Anyways, "You'se guys" is said too damn much in professional settings.

supernummy Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 One of the reasons for stupid grammar mistakes, poor punctuation, and such is that teachers aren't even bothering anymore. My boss' wife is a teacher, and it pisses her off to no end that other teachers at the school she works at don't demerit students for grammatical errors anymore. As long as they get the IDEA of the lesson, they're fine. Fuck that. They're teachers. They need to teach. History teeachers are letting kids turn in papers written in text speak beacause they aren't English teachers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DRUNKEN-ASSHOLE-ONER Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 Real talk, the only time grammar bugs the shit out of me is when I'm watching the news and reporters use "an" instead of "a" before words that begin with "h". I might lose it next time I hear a news anchor say "this is an historic moment". Who the fuck talks like that??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Mamerro Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 I use "anyways" quite a lot, it keeps my thoughts flowing both in talking and writing. Eliminating it from my vocabulary might cause a severe communications collapse. Sorry seeks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's fun reading popular magazines from the 1920s and seeing how much the common language has declined since then. Novelists don't even take the care that was used to write a cigarette advertisement back then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joker Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 you're just mad cause you're girlfriend spell checked all your love letters then broke up with you. Oh shit... did I tell you about that? Seriously, that sucked. How you going to send me back letters, pre-email days, edited for spelling and grammar... and then break up with me? Shit was bonkers. She was kinda freaky though so I let it go without a grumble. I think what bugs me more than anything, and it's so prevalent in today's youthful society... is how, mostly, girls end every sentence with an upward infliction. I don't get the reason behind it or where it came from to be so ingrained in people's speech. I know they're not learning it in school from a teacher so I'm assuming they're learning it from television. Everyone knows what I'm talking about, right?

earl broclo ESQ Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 Joker --My girlfriend kind of does that upward infliction shit. It's not horrible or anything, but I call her out on it sometimes. Thing is, English isn't her first language, and if you listen to her speak in her native tongue (Lao), it makes sense why she accents things like that. But on the other hand, I had a friend from Richmond Virginia move over to California, and he started talking like that after two years of living there. I just chalked it up to him being Californicated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
