We always say "fixin' to", that's just proper English. Beloved asks if I'm coming to bed and I reply "I'm fixin' to".

We have people that blah blah blah and add "do you know what I'm saying?" at the end of every. single. sentence. Nuts.

Good hospitality offers guests Coke (various kinds), water, etc. And tea is sweet tea.

When we lived six years in the Tri-State area of N. Georgia, Tn, N. Carolina folks from church would say "You'uns coming over for lunch today?" We would giggle at how weird that was though it was the equivalent of our "ya'll" which actually sounds correct to me.

Ya'll come over. Ya'll come back. Ya'll are welcome anytime.
What are ya'll doing for the holidays?

Native Floridian. Does it show?
