By state or by area, what strange or different words and phrases are used by the locals?
Where I'm from there's a practically unique language much like Smith and Tangier islands in the Chesapeake.
If you're "from away" it could be tough understanding the locals.
Although we moved when I was young, my folks would occasionally pop out some of these gems.
Here's a few, see if you can guess what they mean. No Googleing.
Put da side back in 'er.
