There ain’t no way you can contract “you all” to “ya’ll”. I’ve never seen it spelled any way other than “y’all”.

I’ve only seen it spelled “y’all” by northerners. I don’t see why it can’t be “ya’ll”. Unless you think that “all” can’t be split up like that, which would make “don’t” wrong also….

By the way, Kathy couldn’t help but notice the split infinitive.

Fortunately a split infinitive is not indicative of a southern accent, it’s indicative of a Memphis City Schools education…..

These people are too stupid to even be good bigots….

By the way, Kathy couldn’t help but notice the split infinitive. Gotta watch your sentence construction. Let’s not give ‘em any more ammunition, ‘k?

And while we’re at it, it’s “ya’ll”, not “y’all”.

Gotta disagree with you there, Marc. There ain’t no way you can contract “you all” to “ya’ll”. I’ve never seen it spelled any way other than “y’all”.
