What is your plural for "you"?
At work we were having the discussion yesterday about how Californians say "you guys" for the plural of "you". Now, where I'm from (central West Virginia) we say "you all" (two seperate words) for the plural but "you" for the singular.
But one of our employees says "y'all" for the singular and "all y'all" for the plural. "You" doesn't exist for him.
A friend from "Picksburg" says "yinz" for the plural.
So what is it where you live?
