As a super non-Southern USA guy, anytime I drop a “y’all” into convo, my Southerner friends say I’m not doing it right because I simply substitute all “you” instances with “y’all”.
I guess these friends don’t come from the singular-y’all part of the South.
i’m from australia and i’ve adopted yall for exactly that reason
it also makes me real happy that some very transphobic shit heads would be furious if they knew that “their word” was part of the solution to gender neutral terminology
I always “y’all” and I’m not even from the south.
In parts of the south “y’all” is singular. “All y’all” is plural.
What?

Y’all is a really good pronoun and I think more people should use it.
It makes everyone sound American. This is sometimes okay.
As a Canadian, I use y’all, but usually only if the word ‘motherfuckers’ immediately follows it.
As someone from the west coast, I disagree.
I like comrade more, but y’all is shorter.
