North vs. South

So, with me being from the North and Kev being from the South, we constantly have conversations about different words used in different areas of the US. Here are some....



toboggan...a sled in the north (an din the dictionary I might add), and a winter hat in the south



while waiting to check out at a store, in the north you are on line and in the south you are in line (in line makes much more sense unless if there is a line painted on the ground)



**** side note with this one, we were talking at a football tailgate about this. On and In are used wrong constantly. You always say I am getting on a plane, no you are getting IN a plane, (well, you can ride on top, but I would prefer to be inside). Also, another side note, non stop flight....well, hopefully it stops at the airport you are landing at!

In the north, you use a shopping cart, in the south you use a buggy.

In the north, you have extension cords, in the south they are drop cords.

In the north, you push a button, in the south, you mash a button.

In the north when you are mad, you are mad, in the south you are ill.

In the north, you take a pictures with a camera, in the south you make a picture with a camera.

Ofcourse, the most well known....you guys vs. y'all.

That is all that I can think of right now, feel free to add anything if you can think of them. When I went to NC from up here for college, a lot of these were foreign and confusing to me. Also, my hubby wasn't understanding some of what I was saying. Now he loves some of them...he loves hearing "wicked". Enjoy!
