[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I believe they also say "yunz" or "yinz" in Pittsburgh to make "you" plural. I wouldn't take anyone's word from Pittsburgh about anything semantic. My sister, who lives there, says people leave out the verb "to be"-- i.e. "My car needs fixed." :-) [/quote] People on DCUM constantly say, "I graduated college." Allk of the Ivy Leaguers appear not to know that one is graduated [b]from[/b] an educational institution. In my opinion, and I am not AA, I would think "chocolate" is offensive but I also find "whitey" or "the man" offensive when AAs are referring to Whites.[/quote]
