Does grammar and cultural awareness die when you hit a certain border?
- "Can I help yous?" ("You" is not a word meant to be pluralized.)
- "All's I gotta do ...." ('cause all's you need is love? Sigh.)
- "You guys' stuff." (You could just simplify and say "your.")
- "I fixed it real good." (I fixed it. 'nuff said.)
- "I think I like it more better." (You don't need "more" if the word ends with -er.)
- "Don't got."
- "Ain't."
- "Ain't got."
- "Them people."
- "Chinaman."
- Iraq pronounced as "eye-rack"
- Iran pronounced as "eye-ran"
I'll keep adding to this list.
HILARIOUS! why do I keep picturing my kind speaking those phrases?
