Book excerpt: Southerners not only talk differently in terms of our accents but particularly relative to our idioms -- "He ain't hittin' a lick at a snake" or "Baby, sometimes you just have to give Time time."Southerners sometimes use animals or inanimate objects to make their points or pass along wisdom - "You ain't knee high to duck¿" or "Every tub has to sit on its own bottom some day."Southern sayings are key instruments in a Southern Parent's tool box. Southerners use them to instill character and to train their children how to avoid missteps in life - "Hear what people say but watch what they do." or "If a dog will bring a bone, he'll carry one too."Southerners express the same intent as the rest of the country does but we just do it just a lil bit differently.
