Terms I enjoy using.

When I lived in Newport News, there was a community, around the oyster business, of “Guinea men”. I never learned what set them apart but I met one and I literally had to have someone translate for me. It wasn’t a foreign language so much as a really strong dialect. Maybe it was just that guy but just could not understand him.

If she smokes… she sucks dick.

My southern drawl and terms are strong y’all .. I throw them in now and again here for a little amusement.. I’ve worked with a few REAL deep woods Texans that if you haven’t been in Texas for a while, you would swear they were speaking another language.. 🤣

Coonass too, that’s in a class of its own!!!
I love listening to someone talking coonass..
my GF is half coonass and she can spit it with the best of them when she gets wound up… some of their terms are hilarious!!

Here we call all facial tissue Klenexx . " next time you go shopping get some Klenexx "
Klenexx is a brand name not a product name , but we use it as a product name . Do you call all facial tissue Klenexx in TX
We do the same with Q-tips , all cotton swabs on a stick for ears are Q-tips

Yinz . For those who do not know that means "you guy's" . Example if you were talking to your kids.... "can yinz rake the leaves in the front yard"
I do not use it , but many do
On a side note . Here in SW PA , it's pop here not soda . " I like like an ice cold can of pop on a hot day"

My relatives in New Castle would say it " can yinz go red up the leaves in the front yard n'at"

It's funny how a few miles can make a world of difference. Perryopolis/Uniontown/Belle Vernon area it is pronounced yoonse or yunse. Pittsburgh is yinz. Next time you talk to Mitch listen carefully, I would bet he pronounces it younse.

God I hate that term….🤣

Down south it’s Coke… everything is coke.
Even if you want sprite or 7up.

Second question is always “what kind” … 🤣

I don't know how to post videos but this made me think of the "litre a cola" scene from Super Troopers 2. It's 42 seconds long and funny as shit if somebody can post it up.
 
As for a term I hate, seems like everybody now says "take a PHOTO".
You take a picture you fucking assholes. Learn to talk good American for fucks sake.
 
"FUCK" and it's derivatives. THE universal word. You can make an entire sentence. With added little in between like "it's fucked" or "fucked up" hell you can make a PARAGRAPH of the damn thing!!

???? I'm sorry, "photo" is a completely legit term, if not slang.
 
The most "non" understandable guy I ever met was from the back woods of "SaCawlana" spoken, REALLY fast. I could not understand a tenth of what he said.

Yep, what kind of Coke do you want? Pepsi, Coke, Root Beer..........

WTF is Pop?
 
If I started writing out the intricacies of the Boston / New England accent, we'd be here all day.

That said

Youse guys is used heavily around here. Sometimes you'll hear the word "guys-is" usually in cases of someone being wound up over something.

Example: "Youse guys seeing what those fawkin guys-is ovah there dooin?"
