Oklahoma Lingo

Stuck here AGAIN at the aiport trying to get from the Northeast to Oklahoma (not an easy task) so I thought it was about time for another blog. This time let's take a look at the strange language being used in OKC! Fixin as in - Im fixin to make me some chicken fried steak for dinner." I'm not sure what this would translate to. It's a useless word that makes no sense at all. Do What? - an Oakie says this everytime someone from the Northeast talks too quickly for them to understand what was said. Ya'll - Translation: you guys or yous guys for yous people from NY and NJ. I'll Holler at You Later - translation: I'll get in touch with you at a later point.

Noodling - This is the way an Oakie catches a cat fish...with their hands! Oh My Gosh - Translation: Oh My God Goshdarnit - Translation: Goddamnit Sack - Nothing to do with football. This just means bag. What a strange language indeed!
