Then we can call ourselves US. The rest of all yawl are well all
yawl.
Which is usually spelt "y'all". "Yawl" is a two masted fore-and-aft
rig sailing vessel. If you ketch the difference.
Of course, "y'all" used to be vernacular plural for "you", but these days,
"y'all" seems to be second person singular around here and the new plural
form is "all y'all".
