No, it's not slang anymore. It's in Websters American dictionary, so it's now recognized as a real word. Outside of country music, the first place I heard it was down in Texas. I say it up here in Yankeeville, and my friends look at me strange. But they forget that I spent 7 years down yonder.. My first adult years, too. From 18 to 25.

Ya'll keep cool now, y'hear?

"Ya'll", "Yall", "Yawl", or "Yaw", a contraction for the words "you" and "all".

Through the decades, and through hurried speech, a question like "How are you all doing today" became "How ya'll doing"?

Of course, "How are you all doing today" is poor grammar of itself but I digress! tongue2

Its labeled as Southern American English. flowerforyou
