SOUTHERN SAYINGS |
O.K., so I don't consider myself Southern but here are a few things I have come to realize-
1. My mother is certainly Southern and says all these things. 2. I have picked up way to much of my mother's way of speaking. 3. We owe a debt of gratitude to the South for there quaint verbage. (Admit it, you use many of these as well). |
