I speak how I wish to speak, thank you very much. And I have a tendency to make up my words from time to time.
Yunz is a favorite of mine
If you can't figure out what the word YUNZ is meaning, than obviously, you're not from the South ~Lmao~

Also, sometimes I cram words together, makes it so I'm able to get more words out of my mouth in less time.
If I see a balloon in the air.....and I want others to see...I might say "Lookupair".
Of course, that means "Look, up there."

But really....to-MAY-to.......to-MAH-to......((tomato))......what's the problem??
