By the way. Northerner’s generally say “You All” and many southerner’s from places like Texas say “Y’all”. But, only people who learned British English say “you lot”. And in the last case there are not many left in America. And that is just the way it is.

Northerners don't EVER say "YOU ALL"; it is a Southern conceit.

Nor is "y'all" a usual term in Texas, but a transplanted one from other Southern states situated along the Atlantic coast above what is now the state of Florida.

The more you post, the more you expose yourself as someone whose education was not only subpar, but as one who never bothered to learn much of anything at all, after one's formal schooling had ended.

Should you persist in replying to me, you shall only make sure that more and more people know what a fool you are; not to mention a low class one.
