The Southern Word Homepage: NetSquirrel presents hundreds of drawled vocabulary words and phrases attributed, somewhat tongue-in-cheek, to the fine residents of the lower United States. Example: "MEERFURAMINIT! (phrase). Mandating a person's immediate presence."
More Definitions Down Yonder:
  • DOOTCHER (verb). The command form in Southern. Usage: "Dootcher momma tells ya to do."
  • IMPA TICKLER (adv). Specifically. Usage: "Whatcha doin tonite?" "Nuttin impa tickler."
  • SENSUOUS (phrase). Usage: "Honey, sensuous up, could you get me another beer?"
