[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My MIL calls all forms of soda "soft drink" and asks "would you like soft drink?" (no a) My FIL adds a "The" to the name of every store. [/quote] Soda vs. soft drink vs. coke (for all kinds of sodas/soft drinks) is completely regional. It's a dialect difference. [/quote] Lots of these are regional. I might offer guests water, sweet tea, or Coke. Coke meaning any kind of soft drink. (I would never have unsweet tea in the house.) [u]I[b] say "Love you BIG!" to my adult kids and often text or write the same. It's like saying [/b]"[b]I know y'all are having a big time on your vacation! [/b][/u] It drives my yankee friend crazy when I say "I think I'm taking a cold". Hahaha! It's just ingrained in my brain. I'm southern. That's far from the worst thing I say, I'm sure. [/quote] Ok, now I don't understand what "I know y'all are having a big time on your vacation" means. [/quote]
