    Yeah, the word “you” is a good example as well.

    The only issue with “you” is that it lacks a plural version so we have to use the Southern “y’all” instead. Some people go even further with a mass plural “all y’all”.

      “All of you.” More unwieldy, but doesn’t sound rustic.

      Yinz is my preferred term, if we’re going for regional words.
