The laugh sensation that swept the nation, How to Speak Southern and More How to Speak Southern, is now collected in one complete&;and completely hilarious&;volume. Embraced by Southerners everywhere and dedicated to all Yankees in the hope that it will teach them to talk right, this uproarious book decodes &;Suthun&; wit and wisdom for &;Nawthun&; upstarts everywhere. From &;aig&; (a breakfast food that may be fried, scrambled, boiled, or poached) to &;zackly&; (as in &;precisely&;), here&;s just a sampling of what you&;ll find inside:
ATTAIR: Contraction used to indicate the specific item desired. &;Pass me attair gravy, please.&;
EVERWHICHAWAYS: To be scattered in all directions. &;You should have been there when the train hit that chicken truck. Them chickens flew everwhichaways.&;

Funny as well as informative, this laugh-out-loud dictionary will keep you laughing and learning&;no matter where you fall on the Mason-Dixon Line!
