A Scots-Irish Journey Quotes

“They said “whar” for where, “thar “for there, “critter” for creature, “nekkid” for naked, “wider” for widow, and “younguns” for young ones.  They were always “fixin” to do something, or go “sparkin” instead of courting, and the younguns “growed up” instead of grew up.  Children were referred to as “little shits”.”
― Gregory R. Johnson, A Scots-Irish Journey: Johnson/Johnston Family Roots
