Y
y'all 
noun
- contraction of "you all." Standard American English doesn't have a 2nd person plural personal pronoun,
so "y'all" is sometimes used to fill this gap. The term's use is mostly geographically limited to the Southern
and Midwestern United States, as well as rural communities in other areas of the country. Sometimes prefixed
with "all" even though it's redundant.
Y'all need to stop that.
All y'all need to stop that.
What are y'all doing tonight?
