I don't think "Y'all" would be problematic. But I also offer "You peeps", I enjoy that one more in day to day conversation.
"Y'all" has wider reach than this map suggests, particularly in black and queer communities.
As a non-english speaker, I appreciate Β«Y'allΒ» 'cause it always bug me the absence of a way to reference more than one individual in English.
What you mean Β«YouΒ» is used to reference both one person and a crowd? English is fuck up.
In what context(s)?
Should be fine π
If you live on the line, or move north/west, it's now "you all".

I'm from Maryland and I said "howdy" in New York and I got roasted by the CVS clerk for 2 full minutes. And then I said "do y'all have Tylenol" in hopes that she could point me in the direction. Another minute of her roasting me...
Roast her back
It was too late. I was hung over as fuck anyways.
I have a VERY southern friend. He once said "y'all all".
What?
Y'all left y'uns out of the map
