Hi all vs. Hi everybody

  • July 15, 2011, 7:04pm

True Southerner here! I am from North Carolina and I can't believe y'all are going on and on about the phrase, "Hi Y'all". "Hi Y'all" is a greeting made to two or more people. I love the phrase and most true southerners use it throwing as much southern dialect into it as possible. If it's improper, we don't care. It's a phrase that we love and have used for generations and generations.
