I'm a native New Yorker and I've been saying "ya'll" since I was a kid. Not exactly in a country accent though.
"I'm a native New Yorker and I've been saying "ya'll" since I was a kid. Not exactly in a country accent though."
I lived in NY for 35 years and until recently, and I've never heard the expression ya'll.
The correct expression is "you all." Ya'll is vulgar vernacular.
