When I had to lose my (northern Ohio Valley/almost Pittsburgh) accent, I just put a gum band on my wrist and snapped it every time I said “red up.” Younz can do the same.
After I left that area of the country as a cub, I learned many of the words I used regularly were not words. However, in my old age, I’ve gone back to some of them because why shouldn’t I? Who says they aren’t words? If certain people can “ax” me a question and no one corrects THEIR English, than screw it. If I want to red up the house, then dammit, that’s what I’m doing!
