[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] "Y'all" is a contraction of two words (You and All), not the phonetic misspeaking of a word ("Ax" rather than "Ask.") Yes, there is a difference. And what Southerner drops ls from the end of words? Sorry, but no.[/quote] "Aks" is not a "phonetic misspeaking" of the word ask, any more than "Wensday" is a phonetic misspeaking of the word Wednesday or "lawn-zher-ay" is a phonetic misspeaking of the word lingerie. (Or do you pronounce them Wed-ness-day and lin-dzher-ee?) What "aks" is, is the way some people/dialects pronounce the word that is spelled a-s-k.[/quote] This is a crappy argument. Clearly, you've never taken French language classes. [/quote]
