Some Sayings from Dixie... Language is that which is understood by the a local group of people... It is just funny sounds to everyone else.... Well we all hear about the way we talk down South..... An ole french teacher years ago, told me that: " when we think that someone sounds strange speaking a different language, remember that you sound the same to them...." So just maybe it is the yankees that talk funny... Here are a few Southern sayings: 1) When they say they know you backwards and forwards it means " They know everything about you..." 2) Fix is a verb as... " I fixing to go to da store..." or "I'm a fixing to.. 3) " We'era goin-a " means : We are going some place.... 4) " Jeet eat yet?" means: Did you eat yet? 5) " Naw d' yew" means: No did you? 6) " Lookie Over Yonder" means: You have to look over that a way to see something... 7) "Wee auder go hear" means: something we should go (leave)... 8) " Git round to it" means: That is something that we are going to do.... 9) "Ya oughter hear" means: something you should do soon. We will try some more Southern saying again soon, Did ya hear?
