Y'all is definitely one of my favorites words 😂. Although my parents were from Alabama, I was born in CA and didn't live here until age 7. So I initially used "you guys" but quickly adopted y'all... which, interestingly, feels much more inclusive of me as a woman. I know some people roll their eyes at objections to the universal male in language... but just imagine if someone said "you gals" and told you gals means everyone. If that would sound weird, then it gives you a hint of my feeling 😂. Just sign me "notaguy"!
