I was born and raised in Ohio, but my Mom came from Virginia and my Daddy from Kentucky. My mamaw and papaw called a bag a "poke", a Coke was called a "dope" and buttermilk was "sweet milk", potatoes were "taters", tomatoes were "maters" and tobacco was "backer". They also called a skunk a "pole cat". There were lots more, but I just can't remember them all. LOL!!
