Welcome to the backwoods.

My husband & I were talking earlier tonight about the way people in our area talk. As most of us call it "The Language of the Rednecks/Hillbillies".

So here are a few of those that just flat out annoy the living crap out of me:

Yellow - Yeller

Hollow - Holler (Guilty of using this one thought lol)

Pillow - Pilla/piller

Window - Winda/winder

Have to - Hafta (getting me talking too fast & I'v guilty of using this one too haha)

Tire - Tare

Fire - Fare

Are Not - Hant

Borrow - Barrie

Over there - Yonder

Id love to know some that bother other people or if they bother them at all?

But in all seriousness I am not judging anyone person, All I believe is that if teachers, parents and adult in our children's lives would encourage them to talk plain and use the correct word for this that we would have much smart, better educated & maybe even better mannered kids!

But manners is a whole different topic for another day...
