My friend from North Carolina gave me a t-shirt that's just an outline of the state, and "Ya'll" on the front. So I think you're right.


“Ya’ll” is the spelling used by carpetbagger poseurs.


Wow. Way to pick a hill.


It's not worth a fight, but I can confirm I've only seen "ya'll" written by non-southern or Appalachian residents. I'm not saying it doesn't happen or shouldn't happen, but it would make me wonder about whether someone has adopted the word as a choice vs. it being just a word in their normal vocabulary.


It’s funny to think I’m picking a hill, just by pointing out an observation. It seems like hyperbole to say my comment was picking a hill to die on.
