Sorry…“yinz”? Where is that a thing? Never once heard it used in my life
WhiteOakBayou@lemmy.world 5 weeks ago
Pittsburgh and similar areas of Pennsylvania I think

That’d explain why I haven’t heard it before. Furthest east I’ve traveled is the Texas end of Louisiana, despite occassional curiosities.
And it basically means ‘yall’?
Rhynoplaz@lemmy.world 5 weeks ago
Yup. Pittsburgh pretty much has it’s own language.

That’s my understanding. I’m not native to the yinz area I’ve just worked with people who said it.

Yep. Also “yous” and “youse guys/girls”. Former rural Pennsylvanian. Miss me those Philly Cheesesteaks.
