She neel

The one that gets me is a guy I know pronounces "Caddis" with a long "a" sound. "Caydis"

He's the only one that I have ever heard say it that way.

Function: noun

Etymology: French, literally, caterpillar, from Latin canicula, diminutive of canis dog; from its hairy appearance -- more at HOUND

he must be from northern Ohio (cleveland and the west suburbs especiassaly), they all say weird stuff up there...no one there drives cars or wears hats...they all stress their A's like they are long...cayrs...hayts...drove me crazy for the first three years of school...then i decided i shouldn't let their habits bother me, i mean after all they're Browns fans, so what ever they do is wrong no matter how i look t it... :blink:

And do you know the plural of "Y'all"......................................??

 

Well, of course! It is "All Y"all".

 

Best from Nashville, where the proper salutation to a friend you haven't seen for a while is, "How's y'alls Momma 'n 'em?" Properly pronounced "Howsyallsmommanem?"-
