All of ya'll keep me in stitches! I love our quilting lingo!

I spent some of my formative years in Wheatherford OK. My Dad went to a University there & became a Pharmacist. With both of my parents being Texans I did learn my Texas Drawl from them with 1 exception. I mentioned the word yonder in my earlier post, well it is the one word that I pronounce differently than anyone else. The proper pronunciation is with the o as a short o, & I mispronounce as a short u. If a Texan hear's me they tease me, & if someone is not from around here they tease me! I catch it comin' & goin'. One other note, It took till I was in the third grade to realize that the word wash did not have an r in it. My DM & her parents always say warsh!

Quilt E when is your 'eh' used? Is it a question, or is it used to express frustration or exasperation?

I'd love ta here the regional expressions that all of ya'll have!
