> For those of you who want to build your vocabulary so that you can communicate better when you travel, learn these Eastern Kentucky terms: > year - ear, those things you hear with > hit - it, third person singular non-gender pronoun > "Hit jest goes in one year and out the other." > yeller - yellow, a color between orange and green on the solar spectrum > dawg - dog, animal sometimes kept for a pet > jest - just, I think that's an adverb > "Hit was jest a little yeller dawg with a spot on hits year."
Eh, shouldna that be, "Hit wuz jest a lil' yeller dawg wid a spot on hits year" ?
See, you gotter nail down those-there finer points of enunciation down PLUM GOOD.
