Chuck, down there,
If in is one word, spelled if'n. It would be used in a sentence something like this " If'n you was to go to the stop sign where that house used to be, and went south a spell.."
We Yankees do have our accents also, or so they tell me.
My daughter went to college for 5 years in Florida, and has never lived north of the Mason-Dixon line since. While I had some difficulty understanding her
before she moved south, a half hour conversation with her now consists of lots of 'What? What did you say? say it AGAIN, Slowly"
