WhoaitsZ, you do realize that while "y'all" might be the equivalent of "you all", "yawl" is a 2 masted sailing vessel, where the second mast is shorter than the first, and located behind the steering post, right?

Another variant of "y'all" is "y'alls", which can either mean the same thing as "y'all", or, if spelled "y'all's" can be the possesive form of "y'all". It also has 2 apostrophes, which makes it that much more fun .
