LOL Grandma from southern Ohio. Grandma said things like, “I jus knowed it”. Sometimes it just pops out, even in print. :-)
...I love the vernacular of the country. Born in New England, Newport, RI, lived in New Bedford, MA, all the way down the east coast to Fla. Panama Canal, I love the language and accents. I do make jest of the sounds and pronunciations of the language of the regions, but, it's all in fun..
...In my youth, I read words, that some might have labeled me as dyslexic, that was jest me, misprocrunchiatin the language...(-;)
