As a southerner I take some offense at the poor attempts at southern English
(kinda like the way a Parisner scowls at poor American French).  To perfect
your southern English you must learn to drop all words with two letters or
less, unless meaning is lost at which time you would combine them, forming
conjunctive.  So an example would be:

Yur't git'em doe-nuts over't sheriff ratnow, year?

If you spend some time learning southern dialect you will discover the
single word sentence which is very much the hallmark of truly good 
southern English. Such as;

Jeetyet?	=	Did you eat dinner yet?
Nawchet.	= 	No not yet.
Youngry?	=	Are you hungry?
Chewgot?	=	What do you have to eat?
Stew.		=	Something I found on the shoulder of the road 
			cooked in a salty gravy.
Sayernuff?	=	Are you sure it wouldn't be an imposition?
Heeps. 		=	I have more than I need to feed me and the dog for 
			two days.
Jantsome?	=	Would you care to join me?
Reckon.		=	I am a little peckish.

Lessons are available for those interested.
