I’m from Georgia. Kim’s from western PA. It stands to reason that when we started hanging out with each other there were some language differences. I said Y’ALL, Kim said YINZ. I called them rubber bands, Kim called them gum bands. Slippery vs slippy. I called every soft drink a coke (yes, even if it wasn’t), Kim preferred pop. The way my girlfriend talked was cute and endearing, and the source of many a laugh in the dining hall.
This video brought some of those regional language differences to light. Can you spot yourself in this?
I’m glad we got over our differences and learned how to communicate. Now if I could just get her and the kids to cut off the lights when they leave the room…
