No Big A, it's just Appalachian and Southern slang all jumbled up together. Can't get it from book learning just gotta come visit for a while and most you'll pick up pretty quick. My great grandfather used to tell me to "go get that poke and get on down to the store and fetch me back a double cola and a stick oh King Bee." I knew then to pick up the old flower sack or the burlap sack,"polk" go to the store and bring "fetch" him a cold drink "Double Cola" and a stick of his favorite chewing tobacco "King Bee". When I’d get back from the store he ask jaeatyet “did you eat yet and uontto, You won’t to? He'd say they dig a Tunnel through "hole plum through" that mountain to the other side.
There is a language around here that's as old as the the folks who first settled here way back when. No books teach it but if you don't know it you might get ask, "you ain't from round here, er ya."

Jeet? No Jew?


For Big A’s clarification: Did you eat? No did you?
