Youins is not a word

• Youins, usins, weins, etc.
  I have finally capitulated in a few instances on ain't. However, the above three are way out of the ballpark on what I perceive and decent grammar.

• I seen it at...
  You did not seen it; you saw it. And when I call you on it, don't say, "I said I have seen it" because you didn't!!!

• Hey, you did that real good
  NO, NOT GOOD!! He did it well.

• I done this, that or the other thing
  I done it??? I think you did it. Say, I did it.

• Joe and me went to...
  The rule is, say it as if it was standing alone. You wouldn't say me went to... would you, no you would say I went to. Thus, it should be Joe and I went to... And did you get permission before you went?

• Answering phone, "This is her"
  Ackkk!! This is she!! I don't know the rule on this one, but I know that she is correct.

• Went vs came
  We came to WalMart yesterday. Um, I think you went to Walmart AND you should have gone to Target it is better.

• Bein as I am going to
  Bein?? What the hell is bein? The geezer picked this one up for a while from one of his co-workers. We addressed it calmly a few times as mature adults do and, let's just say, this college graduate is once again using the word since, instead of "bein".

• How come and why
  This isn't really a grammar issue, just a personal preference. I think why sounds so much better than how come. I can't say why, it just does.

• Can and May
  This may be getting a little picky; but I'm on a roll. The whole can I vs. may I issue. Ring, ring; "can I talk to _____?" I always want to say, "I don't know, are you able to?" But, because I try to be nice I say, "Yes, you may."

• Add your own
  There are so many more, not only in the Ozarks where I live, but each region has it's own vernacular distinctive to the area. Please keep adding to this and I will add more as I think of them.

• Updated 9/08/07: He comed with us to WalMart
  Heard earlier today; thank goodness it was a stranger, not someone I know. Arrgg! How do you even spell comed (as in come past tense)? Comed, commed? How on earth can anyone not know that the past tense of come is came? Arrgggg!
