expressions or tems that you should not say:

[enola]

I can't stand it when people say " I heard that !"

And "Git 'er done!" just drives me up the wall !

I want to AXE a question. <-----That one beats them all for me. Never used to hear that and now, seems, some folks can't say "ask" anymore. When did it become so difficult to say a very simple word?

 

[greyhorsewoman]

Just me, as I do dog show vending and know my breeds and the correct pronunciation. Sometimes I have difficulty figuring out just WHAT people are asking for:

Rockwiller = Rottweiler

Sit Tzu = Shih Tzu (Sheeh zoo)

Why mar Ananer = Weimaraner (WEI mer iner)

Keys Hound = Keeshond (KAYS hund)

Shap PERkey = Schipperke (skip per ke)

Belgian Trevarian = Belgian Tervuren (ter ver en)

I lived there for a while, in Alberta, and there 'aboots' & 'ehs' all around me. I thought it was delightful. How could I enjoy the experience of being in another country as much if we all sounded the same, eh?

I haven't heard this anywhere else, but some farmers around her call a EWE a Yoe. ??

Ditto

It's what ya get for being in the south! Haha.

Here's some things I can't stand:
- Irregardless.
- "I seen it" It's I SAW it!
- Mixing up 'then' and 'than', as well as the other ones like the your/you're and there/their/they're.
- Run-on sentences!
- Axing questions, like speckledhen mentioned.
-"Kinda" and "sorta". Now when you're talking, it's fine, but when you're typing, I prefer to see "kind OF" and "sort OF" - the correct ways.
- When people type "ya" or "yea" instead of "yeah". I do believe that H is supposed to be on the end!

Also saying the two in place of "yay". "Yea" sounds like "pea" or "tea" to me

(hey that rhymes!). Also if you're going to say 'ya', you can at least put an H on the end to make it look a little more intelligent "

- "I no"
- Like is okay, just not when you like use it like every other word, like yeah.

- NO PUNCTUATION. Commas are quite wonderful, no? I don't use a whole lot of semi colons but I do occasionally when I see the need to. I can stand all lower-case sentences a little better than a whole paragraph made of one giant, long run-on sentence.

I was also going to say something about "same difference" (I say that a lot now that I think of it, but it kind of makes sense as to why you'd say it, if you think about it) BUT I went and typed "same" so much, now it looks funny and looks like I can't spell!

So I deleted it, haha.


ANYWAY, I'm done complaining

Oh I thought of some more....My moms neighbor came over today and said this. I ROLLED in the floor laughing(after he left of course).

"Have ya'll been to that new WALMARKS yet? I was gunna go but we went to BIG LOCKS instead since they got them BATRIES we needed fur sure. And they are right beside that Ace HARDWORE Store so I picked up that DREEN pipe I need for my BATROOM.


Walmarks= Wal-Mart

Big Lock= Big Lots

Batries= Batteries

Hardwore= Hardware

Dreen= Drain

Batroom= Bathroom.


Southern old guys I swear. You have to love them.

I saw some goofs on frustrated, but I didn't see FRUSTERATED. That one gets me. And I hate to see congraDulations & refriDgeration.....

The joys of being a HS mom. It's hard NOT to correct someone. I correct my kids, the neighborhood kids & my Hubba *blush*

Now typos, I'm horrible at typing. So I do have a lot of typos.
