No matter where you live, everyone seems to say the same phrases that you would only hear in your geographical region. Being from the South, I catch myself saying certain "southern-isms" that would be weird if we said them anywhere else:
1. "Oh, heavens!"
2. "Well, I declare."
3. "Hold your horses!"
4. "Bless your heart."
5. "Oh, me!"
6. "Y'all."
7. "What in the sam hill is goin' on here?"
8. "Oh, Lord."
9. "Whatever floats your boat."
10. "I'm fixin' to..."
11. "I need that like I need a hole in the head."
12. "Lord have mercy"
13. "Darlin."
14. "Goodness gracious!"
15. "Ain't"
16. "I reckon.."
17. "Hoot and a half."
18. "Quit yer bellyachin'."
19. "Whoopsy Daisy."
20. "Heavens to Betsy!"
21. "Runnin' around like a chicken with her head cut off."
22. "Over yonder."
23. "Oh, shucks!"
24. "Yes ma'am/sir."
25. "Diddly squat."
26. "Y'all, hush!"
27. "Preachin' to the choir."
28. "Slower than molasses."
29. "Oh, my stars!"
30. "Thank you kindly."
31. " Lollygaggin'"
32. "Come hell or high water."
33. "Oh, sugar!"
I will always be proud of where I come from, no matter how weird our sayings can get. We tend to drop our "g's" at the end of our words, and speak pretty slow. If you're not from the South, you will always be the one with the accent, but we will bless your heart either way.
Do you have any other "southern-isms" to add to this list?
