...you need to be pacific when you speak
Ladies and gentlemen, "Pacific" is an ocean on the left side of California.
To be "specific" is to be precise.
thank you.

I could on and on...
One of the choir members had a headache during rehearsal. She asked, "Del, you got some ALIVES?" I said, "what are those?" She said, "you know...ALIVES for your head." I looked at her incredously, and said, "you mean ALEVES!!!!!!"
This same young lady (she's not even 40 years old) has on her voice message:
"Hello. You've reached the ___________ residence. I'm sorry we can't come to the PHOME right now, but at the sound of the tone, leave your name and number and we'll get back to you."
It's something new every week...

This is not speaking but it is grammar. Misusing the apostrophe is rampant - on this very message board full of college educated folk. See my post for a tutorial if need be!! LOL.
ETA: don't know if this has already been mentioned but while many rappers may have popularized this term, "conversate" isn't actually a word. It's "converse."

Living in the South, I have heard it ALL...
Over yonder: Somewhere in a far off place, unseen by the nekkid eye
Nekkid: (Naked) Ain't got no clothes on; a person without clothes
We be______: Instead of saying "We had fun" or "We watch t.v.", we BE having fun and we BE watching t.v.
Mane: Man
Winder: Window
The list goes on and on. In fact, if CT4 is interested, we could write a book about the Southern vernacular. That would be too funny!!

Dead -Ded
Shole-Sure
Gull- Girl
Finna-Going to
FO-Four
Fiy-Five
Niyn-Nine
Leven-Eleven
Fuuls-Fools
Havta- Have to
Ain'tcha-Aren't you
Sum- Some
Runnin'-Running
Mutha-Mother
Der, Dare-There
Anyuna-And you know

when my students say FOE instead of FOUR, I tell them "Foe is an enemy; FOUR is a number"

How about people who can't spell worth a....
I know I'm one of them, but there are people far worse than me!
The next time I see someone spell p*ssed, "pist", I will snatch them through the computer.
